Suggested addition to graphic[编辑]

Alfred Twu Great phased-stage graphic - already being favorably cited on Twitter... however as I noted in my reply to that tweet, image is missing one rather critical phase stage: the "hole" in the parking lot exit ramp that unleashed the evacuation order. If I may suggest you amend the graphic to include a third watercourse draining from the West side of the dam at the parking lot, and a second set of rocks to repair it, see my rather crude schematic annotations (of the "Emergency Spillway Release diagram, A-2" published online here Emergency Spillway Release diagram, A-2 at bulletin boards at metabunk(.)com) MrsKrishan (留言) 08:24, 15 February 2017 (UTC)[回复]

I found myself debunking the "separate-so-safe" dam-spillway incident narrative over at Metabunk by annotating your infographic with the schist lamination pattern at stage 4, adding more specific repair details st stage 5, and coming to opposite conclusion at stage 6. Check it out for ideas on how to improve this image for balance and avoid bias -- IMHO prudence would advise more caution and adequate civilian preparation for catastrophe MrsKrishan (留言) 22:16, 17 February 2017 (UTC)[回复]

improve for non-USA audience[编辑]

Great graphic. Would you consider making improvements so it can be understood better by people not from the USA? The measurements in feet should also be given in metres. The dates are confusing and ambiguous - if the dates stay in American format as they currently are then the months should be spelt out in words (e.g. "February 2, 2017") Thanks! — 以上未签名的留言是由该用户加入的: Alistair1978 (留言 • 贡献) 16:53, 15 February 2017 (UTC)[回复]
