Malta Storm of 25th October 2010

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Non-notable storm. Looking at WP:EVENT, I don't think that this storm can be considered be a notable topic. Quoting from WP:EFFECT, "A minor earthquake or storm with little or no impact on human populations is probably not notable" and from WP:GEOSCOPE "An event affecting a local area and reported only by the media within the immediate region may not necessarily be notable". I can't find any lasting coverage of this event anywhere and the few in depth reports there are on this storm are from local news sources. Jenks24 (talk) 03:36, 4 May 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete I agree that that GEOSCOPE and EFFECT quotes kinda sum it up here. If this article passed notability standards, we would have literally thousands of articles on individual thunderstorms from the United States, Australia, and other countries that get severe thunderstorms. All in all, this was a distinctly non-notable thunderstorm. Ks0stm (T•C•G) 13:09, 5 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
 * Delete. Not notable, as shown above. Crisco 1492 (talk) 07:19, 11 May 2011 (UTC)
