Fails WP:NOTNEWS. Nothing to say that this one is particularly notable.  — fetch ·  comms   00:54, 16 May 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete WP is an encyclopedia, not a log of earthquakes. Steve Dufour (talk) 07:59, 16 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete - There's been a misconception lately that all earthquakes which cause damage are inherently notable. This is not true at all, in fact, the majority of earthquakes are not notable whatsoever, like this one. The Earthquakes WikiProject members, including myself and Mikenorton, are trying to install a general notability guideline.  ceran  thor  11:56, 16 May 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete per WP:NOTNEWS. Earthquakes are pretty damn common all around the Pacific. Unless it's The Big One, it's just a blip on the radar, thus not notable.--70.80.234.196 (talk) 21:29, 16 May 2010 (UTC)
