North Texas Earthquakes 2008

An article about earthquakes of magnitude 2.5-3.0 is surely non-notable, no matter where the location. RapidR (talk) 02:27, 2 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete If 2.5 minimum is notable, then I can provide you with about 10 more individual 3-line articles like this. And this is just covering where I live. Non-notable. - Warthog Demon  03:01, 2 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete I removed two of the references which were broken links, and did a quick search for notability (as the article asserts) and there are no significant sources other than 'small-town-news' style newspaper entries. 66.183.69.201 (talk) 03:49, 2 July 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete The earthquake equivalent of a simple thunderstorm compared to say, a hurricane. SInce hurricanes are notable, but thunderstorms not usually; a 3.0 magnitude, of which there are dozens going on right now, seems to lack any inherant notability, and there does not seem to be anything notable about this specific earthquake either.  --Jayron32. talk . contribs  04:30, 2 July 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete Completely unnotable, and Wikipedia is WP:NOTNEWS. Just because it happened in Dallas isn't even that notable. Texas may not be "seismically" active, but it does have regular minor earthquakes. -- Collectonian  (talk · contribs) 16:13, 3 July 2009 (UTC)
