Same content...two locations edit

Latest comment: 18 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

We have duplicated content here. The Tunguska article does more than describe the geographic location, it also tells the story of the Tunguska event. This is problematic because there is an entire article on this at Tunguska event. That article is much more detailed and that's where people should be going for info on that event.

There is a problem with having info in two places:(a) updates need to be made in two places and (b) differences emerge. It is better to have this article be a geographical article and let the detail of the event be handled by the Tunguska event article.

Toward that end, I am going to be a bit bold and remove most of the coverage of the blast event from this article while ensuring that those wanting info on the blast have a clear link to get there. I am also going to add a geo-stub notice to this article in the hope that somebody with knowledge of the regiion will turn it in to a bona-fide geography article.
