Under the Food Security page, there is little coverage of emergency food distribution channels, actors, or methods. Would this be a useful addition to this page?

Please Verify The Duration of the 2008 Sichuan earthquake as Being 2 Days and 8 Hours

The edit here at 2008 Sichuan earthquake http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=2008_Sichuan_earthquake&oldid=457076884 was done by a Wikipedian that only came here and made 1 edit and probably created a page on himself that was speedyed. I am wondering if someone can verify the duration of the earthquake lasting 2 Days and 8 Hours? I can't find anything on this right now as I thought it only lasted a few minutes. Please Help!

I think this topic is notable enough and I'm puzzled why Wikipedia lacks articles about huge snowstorms. My article: March,_2013_European_snowstorms, thanks! -Rev L. Snowfox (talk) 13:09, 17 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Texas City 2005 refinery explosion

I have updated the content of the Texas City Refinery explosion, any additions, updates or corrections welcomed. There is a thread running on that discussion forum dating back a couple of years now about the naming convention used for this particular event. I agree that it should be changed to include the date, such as 'Texas City Explosion, 2005'. the refinery reference is somewhat redundant as its common knowledge what the event was. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Blackrock36 (talkcontribs) 08:48, 29 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Input requested at Deepwater Horizon oil spill

Hi. I have never posted on this page before so I'd like to first introduce myself. My name is Arturo and I am the company representative for BP on Wikipedia. I never edit articles directly, but instead participate in talk page discussion on topics related to BP.

I am here to ask for help with a discussion that has stalled on the Deepwater Horizon oil spill talk page. I saw that this WikiProject is listed on the article's talk page and thought that there might be a knowledgeable editor here who is able to join the discussion.

Recently there was some information added to this article about compensation procedures in the Gulf states that I would like editors to review. This information is largely based on an opinion piece from The New York Times which is not the best source to use in this situation. On the talk page I provided some alternate news sources that I think could be used to more fully explain the situation.

Is anyone here able to review this issue? Here are links to the current section in the article and the discussion on the talk page. Thanks. Arturo at BP (talk) 15:51, 26 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
