Length of day alteration
It would be helpful to include the reasons for the quake's alteration of the length of day. Quakes typically involve subduction of plates which sink because they have cooled and become denser than underlying material. Accordingly such events decrease the planet's moment of inertia, but are followed by quiet periods of warming the newly subducted material, and of cooling the newly raised material. This has the opposite effect on the moment of inertia, so that the net effect is zero.76.23.5.30 (talk)A G Foster May 1, 2010
does source 29 works?
It doesn't work for me --Bogdanno (talk) 01:05, 2 May 2010 (UTC)
About the section Food Scarcity
I dont know who was the person that realized that food is Beer. The only thing that food scarcity talks about is about the lack of sufficient beer for the population. Are you serious? I say that whole section be deleted until actual sources verifying Scarcity in actual food are found130.245.231.230 (talk) 19:05, 4 September 2010 (UTC)

GOPE
GOPE is a special force of the Chilean police and indeed they were there. But all available police forces were there. --Keysanger 16:20, 9 January 2011 (UTC)
Death table illegible
The tables with the Death toll are illegible and the sortable function doesn't work.

Criminal Prosecution
Perhaps a part should be added regarding the current criminal investigation and prosecution against Carmen Fernández, then head of ONEMI, and even former President Michelle Bachelet, led by the Chilean justice. It's cause relates to the lack of issuing the tsunami warning to the population and other matters.
