There seems to be a problem with the 1139 Ganja earthquake article. See Talk:1139 Ganja earthquake#Where? When?. --Bejnar (talk) 16:34, 4 December 2023 (UTC)
@Quake1234: @Borgenland: @Filipinohere: @Dora the Axe-plorer: @Phoenix7777: I would like to discuss the kind of maps that we use as the main infobox map in our articles. For a long period we used location maps using the relief version where available. This has the advantage of showing the earthquake in the context of the country where it was located and giving some impression of the active tectonics. Most of the recent earthquake articles have instead got maps showing the location of the mainshock and subsequent aftershocks that crowd each other out and completely cover up the underlying geography. The 2024 Noto earthquake and 2023 Herat earthquakes are good examples. The 2023 Nepal earthquake shows how it used to be done. I think that looks better in the infobox, certainly better than the map currently in the 2023 Turkey-Syria earthquakes. I propose that we go back to using location maps to show the epicentre in the infobox, restricting maps of aftershocks to the relevant section of the article. Thoughts?

The earthquake that happened today needs some attention from members of this project, who are experts in this area. An editor declined the creation of Draft:2024 New Jersey earthquake, and now someone else has recreated the article with a worse title, 2024 Lebanon, New Jersey earthquake.
