sources

Hello, where do you find news about the casualties because i don’t think anyone would go to search on chinese websites when they don’t understand a thing. Nillinolovesfortnite (talk) 18:42, 22 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Xinhua, despite usual RS concerns, would be a useful local English source. Borgenland (talk) 19:21, 22 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Foreshock

Does the 5.1 quake in Aksu 12 hours earlier count as a foreshock? Borgenland (talk) 19:36, 22 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The Aksu quake occurred far from the Uqturpan earthquake's rupture. In other words, it's likely not a foreshock. Quake1234 (talk) 21:11, 22 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Merge into List of earthquakes in 2024

The effects of this earthquake isn't noteworthy for a standalone article. Important details can be summarised hence I suggest merging into the list. This article isn't necessary when the project is working to clear up articles. Dora the Axe-plorer (explore) 08:14, 23 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I think we should give it at least a week if more details emerge. If not much then I'd support a merge afterwards. Borgenland (talk) 08:40, 23 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Seems like this earthquake has reached the bare minimum of notability in terms of human impact. I will recall my suggestion to merge. Dora the Axe-plorer (explore) 12:27, 23 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
