Age, length, sources, neutrality are fine. No copyvio, plagiarism or close paraphrasing. Hook is the most interesting fact from the article but it is slightly misleading: the island was hit by a tsunami from the north and may also have been hit by one from the south. Perhaps ALT1 ... that although the 1992 Flores earthquake was to its north, Babi Island may have been hit by tsunamis from both the north and south? Yomanganitalk 13:49, 22 August 2011 (UTC)
Sure, let's go with that. Apparently it's been discussed up the wazoo in the literature (note how almost all references are to books on tsunamis) Crisco 1492 (talk) 15:12, 22 August 2011 (UTC)
Ready with Alt1 then. Yomanganitalk 15:27, 22 August 2011 (UTC)
