- Delete Fails to demonstrate or make any claim that it will have any lasting significance, it therefore fails the inclusion policy. It received news coverage because it was a news story. LGA talkedits 20:56, 21 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- No. NOTNEWS exists because local papers will write about boring and unimportant local events just because they need to fill their pages with something. This story was covered by essentially every major news outlet in the entire world. Xrt6L (talk) 17:25, 31 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep for now, while the best option would be merging it into an article about the insurgency in the Philippines. Mass murders and terrorist acts aren't that sort of trivial/local news events which fall under NOTNEWS. Cavarrone 06:59, 12 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. We have an enormous page about this car bomb in the US that didn't even go off. Though I agree with the sentiment that if more becomes known (in a definitive way) about the context for this bomb, it may be reasonable to incorporate this into a larger article. groupuscule (talk) 16:47, 14 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
