This is redundant content. The most likely outcome for this item is a redirect to earthquake because it's not saying anything that hasn't already been said over there. Dawnseeker2000 02:58, 12 May 2017 (UTC)Reply

As it stands, you're right, but it could usefully be improved and expanded, with sections on rupture nucleation, rupture arrest and rupture velocity. Mikenorton (talk) 09:56, 29 October 2018 (UTC)Reply

Well, I've got rid of most of what was there. On looking back through the earthquake article, the text there should provide a good starting point for expansion. Mikenorton (talk) 16:23, 29 October 2018 (UTC)Reply

Expansion complete for now. Mikenorton (talk) 19:13, 6 November 2018 (UTC)Reply
