The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was redirect to List of earthquakes in New Zealand. Clear consensus that this doesn't merit a stand-alone article. I'm going to redirect this to List of earthquakes in New Zealand. Folks can continue to discuss inclusion criteria on the talk pages. -- RoySmith (talk) 03:19, 7 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Fails to meet notability guidelines for earthquakes. (Yes, I am proposing deletion of an article I created.) Kiwi128 (talk) 22:50, 30 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete – Agree with nominator and article creator. This one has been on my list for deletion for some time due to lack of notability (no substantial effects). Please also remove the entry from List of earthquakes in New Zealand for the same reason. Dawnseeker2000 23:11, 30 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to List of earthquakes in New Zealand; the threshold for inclusion there is lower than for a stand-alone article. I don't see any reason to support changing the "all earthquakes >6.0 magnitude" threshold on that page, and this isn't the correct forum to discuss that change in any event. power~enwiki (π, ν) 00:38, 31 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Power~enwiki: Please post a link that supports the idea that there is a lower threshold for inclusion on the lists vs stand alone articles. The documentation should be from a member of WP:EARTHQUAKES. Also, the list problem is something that we have been working on for several years and this is a fine opportunity to discuss it.

Agree with power~enwiki that 2012 Opunake earthquake should probably remain in List of earthquakes in New Zealand; also agree that this is not the place to decide that. Kiwi128 (talk) 01:10, 31 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
