Good. We can work on this. This earthquake is notable enough for an article, the thing is, information must be dug up. I suggest creating a more unique name besides "Alaska Peninsula". But that is not the priority. The priority is getting better content on this page. Earthquake Maestro (talk) 02:56, 14 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I do believe this name is generic as well. On your talk page, you call it the "Shumagin earthquake", and other seismologists at the the University of Alaska Fairbanks call it the "Simeonof earthquake". Speaking of the UofA, they have a compilation of information for the earthquake. They talk about the Shumagin Gap, which I think would be a good addition to the article. I just wonder if their images are copyrighted. GyozaDumpling (talk) 07:56, 14 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Simeonof Earthquake is better. I didn't know they were calling it that, so I called it Shumagin. I just think Alaska Peninsula is too generic. Also should be combined with the October earthquake.Earthquake Maestro (talk) 00:59, 23 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
