thread_title:  Max intensity 

message: Please see this statement from the lede, prior to my edit.
"Lasting four minutes and thirty-eight seconds, the magnitude 9.2 megathrust earthquake remains the most powerful earthquake recorded in North American history, and the second most powerful earthquake recorded in world history."  
This claim is in conflict with the WP article referenced, which lists it as 4th largest, not 2nd largest, since that ranking article includes necessary qualifiers, such as "since 1900" and "since the use of seismographs"  
To resolve this, I added "based upon seismographic measurements" to this article so as to not get in an issue changing the ranking of the event. 
I strongly suggest to editors that if you reference another authoritative WP article that includes many tables, qualifiers, filters, etc. that you do not pick a single case and claim that as the fact.    Either make the claim and provide the citations in the article you are editing, or say "one of the ..." and provide the link to the authoritative WP article and let the reader research it based upon their preferred criteria.  
Thank you.  • Bobsd •  (talk) 19:12, 29 December 2022 (UTC)
