P.S. Be forewarned that my initial reaction, without really looking at the article is that it can not be complete given the article length and the event recency. Look around at other earthquake articles to see what types of things might be desirable to add.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 17:14, 25 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for reviewing! I've looked around at all the major sources on earthquakes (including Japanese ones), as well as multiple smaller ones. I can honestly say that what is written in the article is all there is to say about this quake. It wasn't that significant of a quake, but the impact is notable. Geologically, the article is complete; impact and aftermath-wise, there's not much else to write. I have based the article off of other smaller earthquake articles, such as this one or this one. As you can see, compared to the other quakes the earthquake/geological info in the Fukushima quake article is pretty much complete; they were all relatively moderate earthquakes, with not much to write about geologically. The Fukushima quake resulted in limited damage, and most reports (both Japanese and English) cover the same occurrences. The Pichilemu and Chino Hills articles include an aftershock section, which is understandable considering the magnitude and/or amount of shocks reported. Of the 11 shocks registered, the strongest for the Fukushima quake registered at a magnitude of 5.5, which is very common in Japan, and with no impact reported this shuts off the possibility for a separate aftershock section. Then, there's the reaction/response section, which I could include, but it'd be quite small. Either way, I'll try to accumulate some information for this, and I'll add that to the article. The lack of tsunami waves also results in much less to write about, since tsunamis add a lot of information to earthquake articles. I hope this makes enough sense ★ Auree (talk) 17:45, 25 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I feel we have made this article much closer to what WP:WIAGA instructs and am going to pass this article now.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 02:48, 30 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. Thank you for reviewing; I hope to work with you again in the near future. ★ Auree (talk) 07:36, 30 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
