2013 Bohol Earthquake

No other Earthquake article has this. I will fix, but will not get into edit warring. So, we need User:Kristijh to keep this up to the minute. Kennvido

Although I originally tried to keep the article up to date and with that list written in prose, Kristijh has insisted on having it as a repetitive, and boring list [1] Maybe someone tell xyr to stop? Having a mention that several aftershocks of magnitude +x have occurred may be waaaaaaay better than having every single +5.0 aftershock listed and in a very ugly way.

I am getting used to the news proclaiming something as stupid as "the epicenter was at a depth of x kilometers". But Wikipedia shouldn't distribute such nonsense. By definition, the epicenter is at the surface. 91.213.177.153 (talk) 06:29, 16 October 2013 (UTC)

This is true. Kennvido (talk) 07:05, 16 October 2013 (UTC)

Need we use a comparison with an atomic bomb (in particular, the one dropped on Japan) to describe the strength of the earthquake? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 136.142.235.128 (talk) 13:06, 16 October 2013 (UTC)

Although the info is true, it is kinda sensationalistic. It would be good to have it removed. Küñall (talk) 23:54, 16 October 2013 (UTC)
Agreed, it is WAY out of place, needs to be removed. Skycycle (talk) 14:05, 17 October 2013 (UTC)

Can someone update the intensity ShakeMap, since the one we have is the initial estimate at ~56km depth, later revised up to 20km and with a much larger intensity on Bohol - it can be found on the USGS website. Thanks in advance! Skycycle (talk) 14:02, 17 October 2013 (UTC)

Corrected. Küñall (talk) 19:52, 17 October 2013 (UTC)

I have added new sections in the article. It requires expansion. Can you help me expand the article?--AR E N Z O Y 1 6A•t a l k• 13:35, 22 October 2013 (UTC)

United States Geological Survey and most international sources say 7.1 and PHIVOLCS says 7.2 Raykyogrou0 (Talk) 01:42, 22 July 2014 (UTC)

There will always be different calculations (different scales also) for magnitude so one way to approach it is to capitalize on the "problem" by finding multiple sources that are in agreement and build accuracy/trustworthiness that way. Dawnseeker2000 02:14, 22 July 2014 (UTC)

An editor keeps on changing the earthquake intensity to IX - Violent, based on info at List of earthquakes in 2013. Note however that this apparent discrepancy lies in the fact that 2 different scales are being used. The list article is based on Modified Mercalli intensity scale, whereas this article is based on PHIVOLCS Earthquake Intensity Scale. -- P 1 9 9  ✉ 18:52, 18 December 2020 (UTC)

Moreover, the intensity ratings at List of earthquakes in 2013 is totally unreferenced, and should therefore not be copied until a reliable source is added. -- P 1 9 9  ✉ 02:53, 23 January 2021 (UTC)
