1960 Valdivia earthquake was nominated as a Geography and places good article, but it did not meet the good article criteria at the time (July 29, 2023, reviewed version). There are suggestions on the review page for improving the article. If you can improve it, please do; it may then be renominated. |

Hi--am I reading this wrong? It seems to say the earthquake of May 22 was preceded by a smaller earthquake on May 22? Somebody working on this might want to double-check.

Hi there, because of new interest in earthquake scales caused by large quakes at the end of 2004, I'm highlighting the Moment magnitude scale and the Richter magnitude scale. If I've screwed up, feel free to correct.
I think a verbatim quote of external references could be a copyright violation. I removed those from that section. Please, summarize in article, instead. Awolf002 14:31, 5 May 2005 (UTC)
I am curious about the Hawai'i events link. I find no reference to a Magnitude 16.____ event on that site and do not know of what scale any event would register that high on (Richter, moment, etc.). In any event, all magnitude and intensities should have scale names associated with them to make them of any value.
I removed the claim that a volcano erupted because of this earthquake. Please, provide reference before adding this. Awolf002 21:41, 11 October 2005 (UTC)
I was surprised to read that the majority of casualties were caused by tsunamis. I had been told that it was landslides that caused most deaths. Any references?
Also, the article is strong on the geophysical aspects of the event but there is not much info about what happend afterwards. What was the damage caused to society in Chile and elsewhere? -- rxnd ( t | € | c ) 21:45, 19 April 2006 (UTC)
What is the relevance of the picture of the volcano in this article? Also is there an article on the following tsunami. If not i propose one should be started or information about the tsunami be added to the article.
I moved this picture from the article to the talk page because the article doesn't even mention the volcano in question. If someone more knowledgeable about the topic knows what the connection is and wants to write it into the article, please do so. 青い(Aoi) 05:37, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
The result of this discussion was move to 1960 Valdivia earthquake. -- Awolf002 22:19, 30 November 2007 (UTC)
If nobody else chimes in, I will move this article to the agreed upon name 1960 Valdavia earthquake. Anybody? Awolf002 ( talk) 12:16, 25 November 2007 (UTC)
why the hell do you guys care about whether earthquake is capitalized or not? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.191.80.225 ( talk) 03:50, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
In the map of the article the epicenter is in Contulmo rather than Valdivia. As fas I know there was a series of earthquakes with epicenters along a north-south line but which epicenter is considered "the epicenter"? Valdivia was probably the most affected city but it doesnt mean that the strongest or first epicenter was there. do somebody know something about it? Dentren | Talk 18:16, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
Disaster would not leave Chile alone. Attempting to placate the gods they held responsible for the continuing quakes in southern Chile, Mapuche Indians last week beat a six-year-old boy to death with sticks, tore out his heart and offered it to the sea. When police arrested two of the Indians, they explained: "We were asking for calm in the sea and on the earth."
it is missing some info like that it was caused by the nazac plate moving
900km or 435miles? These are not equivalent... 86.9.207.208 ( talk) 08:30, 22 May 2010 (UTC)

USGS says it is 9.6. Should I edit it? Also the reference for the earthquake's magnitude needs to be added. Pubserv ( talk) 20:04, 10 July 2013 (UTC)
Hey, it's true. Updated magnitude is 9.6Mw. See http://comcat.cr.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eventpage/centennial19600522191117#summary This source is newer than http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/world/events/1960_05_22.php You can actually see in the webpage's footer the date of its last modification. -- Foschograph ( talk) 20:36, 3 September 2014 (UTC)
I'm intending to restructure the article and include more information on the scientific side of the earthquake, separating it from the description of the damage caused. This will cover the estimates of magnitude, depth, epicentre, foreshocks and aftershocks, the distribution of shaking, the details of the tsunami with run-ups the triggering of an eruption, the number and volumes of the landslides triggered by the earthquake and so on. The tectonic interpretation section needs rewriting and expanding as well. Comments welcome. Mikenorton ( talk) 19:14, 4 September 2014 (UTC)
Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just modified 4 external links on 1960 Valdivia earthquake. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:

Did Indonesia got affected by the tsunami ? Alvaro ivan daniswara ( talk) 15:08, 18 June 2021 (UTC)
I'm having trouble understanding the pie chart. Does the line pointng to San Francisco mean that the SF earthquake is only a sliver of the contribution to the total seismic energy released? Philosophistry ( talk) 03:15, 9 March 2022 (UTC)
I think this is the longest earthquake in terms of duration, it lasted for 10 minutes. Brennan1234567890 ( talk) 20:28, 26 August 2022 (UTC)

This article has failed its Good article nomination. This is how the article, as of June 27, 2023, compares against the six good article criteria:
I hate doing this, but it's been awhile and there has been no reply to any of my comments. No hard feelings, but this GA nomination cannot proceed. If the issues noted above were addressed by the nominating editor or somebody else and the article were renominated for GA, I would be glad to review it again.
When these issues are addressed, the article can be renominated. If you feel that this review is in error, feel free to have it reassessed. Thank you for your work so far.— CurryTime7-24 ( talk) 21:14, 27 June 2023 (UTC)
