In case it's unclear, the article has multiple grammatical and idiomatical errors that make it read as if it had not been edited by a native English speaker. It needs a better level of quality if it's to go on the front page. μηδείς (talk) 01:15, 6 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hopefully better now. It is easy to insert errors while revising sentences and sometimes is hard to see one's own errors (at least for me as I tend to see the way the sentence was intended rather than what I actually typed). --ThaddeusB (talk) 01:42, 6 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I reviewed a suggestion. Basically, the suggestions are add a map and pictures. I found a great collection of pictures and a map on the Red Cross website. If anyone can contact them, so they will allow the publishing of the items on Wikipedia, then that would be great. Geraldshields11 (talk) 15:57, 8 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
