[edit] Your coverage of disaster-related articles.

Just curious. Are all your additions on several disaster-related articles based on the Seconds From Disaster television series? ╫ ２５ ◀RingADing▶ 16:15, 1 November 2006 (UTC) ╫

Thanks for responding. The only issue of your additions is that they lack sources, which are essential in verifying the notability of the information provided in the additions. I'm not sure how to cite episodes of television program, but I've started with the Sampoong Department Store collapse article's reference section, which can serve as a rough guide on how to cite the SFD's television episodes. Hope that helps, and thanks again for replying. ╫ ２５ ◀RingADing▶ 17:01, 2 December 2006 (UTC) ╫

[edit] Re: New section on disaster articles

Well, timelines are OK (as stated in Wikipedia:Lists (stand-alone lists)#Appropriate topics for lists), as long as the articles aren't already explaining the same thing in other forms of text, including proses. In other words, you can add timelines as long as it's not redundant to what is already provided in the article (featured article that I've seen try to minimize the use of lists, including timelines, if possible). Hope that helps. ╫ ２５ ◀RingADing▶ 18:48, 4 December 2006 (UTC) ╫
