Aricle has no lead section

This article has no lead section, highlights of the article, preceding the first section with a title. - - 20:09, 12 October 2023 (UTC) Prairieplant (talk) 20:09, 12 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

I added a two-sentence lead and put a section title on the text addressing past earthquakes in the area. - - 20:21, 12 October 2023 (UTC) Prairieplant (talk) 20:21, 12 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

Is there a single source here that existed before April 5th 2024?

You might be confusing the access-dates with the date of publication. Several new citations were added when the article was expanded on April 5. NeonSpectre (talk) 13:48, 6 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
 
Our articles on particular cases are mostly either particular events or chronically lively places such as famous active faults. When the Earth shook under my feet a few days ago in Manhattan, it was the first time in my long life so naturally I was more impressed than my San Francisco relatives. I'm not at all sure this rather narrow yet vague geological region should be the subject of such an article. Not surprisingly, the article Ramapo Fault has suddenly become more frequently edited, but I don't yet see an article about earthquakes either particularly in New Jersey or more widely in the Northeastern states, and figure whatever Wikipedia says about the seismic dangers to NYC and region can be included either in that fault's article or in a catch-all article about this locality's vulnerability to the actions of a vengeful Earth.

21, actually. Though some of them may have been removed. Epicgenius (talk) 13:53, 24 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
