Pichilemu vs. Lago Rapel

Hi there, I'm writing here to prevent some unnecessary editwarring. Some of the sources used in the article refer to this earthquake as the "Pichilemu earthquake", instead of "Lago Rapel earthquake". Indeed "Lago Rapel quake" is a totally valid name, but I believe that it is more correct to call it like it is now. Regards, Küñall (talk) 21:59, 6 April 2014 (UTC)

I have to dissent with Küñall's opinion. If you google "1985 Lake Rapel earthquake", the search engine gives you about 46,000,000 results and "1985 Pichilemu earthquake" gives only 56,400 results. As WP:COMMONNAME applies here, the most used name is the Rapel Lake and not Pichilemu. Regards. --Sfs90 (talk) 19:01, 9 April 2014 (UTC)
