Looking good. As one note, in 526 Antioch earthquake, the hook is only cited to a primary source (the Chronicle of Zuqnin). In Domus Aurea (Antioch) it is cited to a secondary source, the Sbeinati work (which largely just quotes the primary sources, but at least it shows that the author finds them credible). I'd just copy that citation over to the other article. Also in 526 Antioch earthquake, citation 2 is incomplete, and I can't seem to get it to open.--Cúchullain t/c 16:35, 27 September 2011 (UTC)
- I've added a cite to the Sbeinati ref as suggested, thanks. Ref 2 in the earthquake article is to the excellent online earthquakes database for Italy and the Mediterranean, which is really useful but has a tendency to be out of action some of the time (maybe a couple of weeks a year), unfortunately now is one of those times. It will eventually get sorted out but it may take several days. Mikenorton (talk) 20:39, 27 September 2011 (UTC)
Good to go now. The database reference can be improved when it's available.--Cúchullain t/c 12:50, 28 September 2011 (UTC)
