Infobox and lead[edit]

  • Couldn't find any issues with the infobox.
  • I don't think the word "extraordinary" is neutral to use, so try replacing it.  Done I've replaced extraordinary with unprecedented. Maybe that will sound more in line with neutral wording.
  • Other than that, the lead looks good.

Tectonic setting[edit]

  • Remove the comma after "Channel Islands offshore".  Done

Earthquake[edit]

  • Add a serial comma after "east–west strike".  Done
  • I don't think "landsliding" is an actual word, so reword.  Done
  • Add a comma after "the Tujunga segment".  Done
  • "frequently-encountered" → "frequently encountered"  Done

Damage[edit]

  • "heart attack" → "heart attacks"  Done
  • Is "proper ties" the correct words being used, or is it a typo?  Done Yes, it's correct. I've linked Tie (engineering) to assist the reader.
  • "The large" → "A large"  Done
  • Remove the comma after "closest school to Pacoima dam".  Done

Aftermath[edit]

  • Add a comma after "Long Beach earthquake".  Done
  • "debate began" → "a debate began"  Done

References[edit]

  • Sources are archived and well-cited.
