[edit] unsigned comment
147 schools were damaged in the newcastle earthquake and that ment that children were unable to attend school.earthquakes cannot be predicted- although scientists are working on it!!!
Early article says 13 deaths, later says 14? Newcastle page also says 13?
[edit] Addition of disputed tag
Looking over the page history, it's clear that on a number of occasions, vandals have indiscriminately changed facts on this page (number of dead, magnitude of earthquake, etc). For example, the number of dead cited in the lead was incorrect until I just changed it. While some vandalism has been properly reverted, I'm concerned there may still be errors lurking in this page. I don't have time to check everything right now, so I've added the {{disputed}} tag. –Adrian J. Hunter(talk•contribs) 09:07, 18 June 2007 (UTC)
- After reviewing the facts presented in the article and ensuring that they are all the same as stated in credible references I've deleted the {{disputed}} tag. I've also added some references and external links that back them up to avoid confusion. --AussieLegend 12:09, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
