Can anyone reading and who knows how the ITN section of the Main Page
works consider giving the Main Page errors process a prod to get
things moving?

I posted there this morning about how the blurb on the Japan
earthquake and tsunami is increasingly outdated, and there has been
little response so far. Someone else has also posted something about
the nuclear situation, so that may need consideration as well. ITN
isn't meant to be a news ticker, but neither is it meant to get left
behind as news stories develop (always a problem when you have a
developing story where things will have changed a few days later).

FWIW, those who administer the WP:ERRORS page may not have seen this
section on the Main Page talk page:

It is better not to use exact figures in the Main Page blurb. Exact
figures are better left for the article itself.
