Tampering of refs

User:Nkywvuong has been POV-pushing their nomenclature for Taiwan in violation of Common Name protocols and is even unscrupulous enough to tamper with a USGS reference title just to fit their agenda (see [[1]]) and rudely make an edit summary in a language that not everyone can understand (see [[2]]).

Requested move 3 April 2024

If the page title has consensus, be sure to close this discussion using {{subst:RM top|'''page moved'''.}} and {{subst:RM bottom}} and remove the {{Requested move/dated|…}} tag, or replace it with the {{subst:Requested move/end|…}} tag.

2024 Taiwan earthquake → 2024 Hualien earthquake. For consistency with other Taiwan earthquake articles such as the 2018 Hualien earthquake. As far as the template box is concerned, this is the only earthquake in Taiwan that uses Taiwan. Borgenland (talk) 14:01, 3 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support. Ythlev (talk) 15:27, 3 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support There is a pretty good chance there will be another earthquake notable enough to get a page before the year ends considering Taiwan’s geography. QuarioQuario54321 (talk) 16:34, 3 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support since about 85% of the impact is in Hualien Quake1234 (talk) 16:59, 3 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support per nom, and also per the region it occurred in and damages. Sadustu Tau (talk) 17:20, 3 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support per nom and QuarioQuario54321's argument YordleSquire (talk) 18:39, 3 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
