Reviewing, great work as always .... 
 *"though this intensity rating was not indicative of the majority of damage in the area" Sounds like original research in an already extremely long sentence, this can be cut. 
 * Bakersfield is mentioned in the lead and the aftermath as being significantly damaged by the earthquake, but nothing on the Damage section, maybe expand a bit or move from other parts of the article. 
 * "In statements made in the July 22 Los Angeles Times the shock was compared to the 1857 Fort Tejon event." - needs a comma. 
 * Why the link to the Kern County Fire Department as see also, but nothing in the text. 
 * No close paraphrasing concerns, all sources are reliable and the few online sources matches the text given. Images are free.
