Delete - When I created it, I thought that there was likely to be substantial damage or fatalities. As there were not, I think deletion is sensible. For that matter, we may also wish to consider deleting another article I started, 2012 Opunake earthquake. Kiwi128 (talk) 22:44, 30 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- FYI, I have just nominated 2012 Opunake earthquake for deletion. Given that it is similar to this article, anyone who is interested in this conversation may also be interested in that one. Kiwi128 (talk) 22:53, 30 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - Just a heads up, I have nominated the 2008 Hastings earthquake for deletion. Sheldybett (talk) 00:48, 31 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
