The result was   delete. Par WP:NOTNEWS. This particular earthquake seems to hold no long term notability. Merging it to Acre_(state) does not seem to be viable either, as the acre article details the state itself on a global level; Individual (non important) events are beyond the scope of includion for that article.

2010 Acre earthquake

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Non-notable quake, no damage or casualties ; would seem to violate WP:NOTNEWS C628 (talk) 01:42, 28 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:NOTNEWS. — Mike moral  ♪♫  02:25, 28 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Merge with Acre (state) - although there's not sufficient coverage after the event for it to have an article of its own, it seems reasonable information to have around. Claritas (talk) 08:25, 28 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Merge: as a local event without broad coverage it belongs rather to Acre (state). Dewritech (talk) 08:38, 28 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete. Insignificant as every 2.0 quake (because of depth)-- DA I (Δ) 13:47, 28 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete I feel like I'm at Chuck E. Cheese at the mole game. The "quaking news" articles got so numerous that there was a big aftershock in the form of nominations.  We recently had a similar creation and deletion at Articles for deletion/2010 Brazil earthquake.  Suggestions for creating a page called "Earthquakes in Brazil" were offered.  Maybe an administrator can help get the info on that back in order to make a useful page, but the practice of filling out the infobox and seeing what we think is getting, shall we say, ridicule.
