Keep Has a magnitude of 7.3 and has WP:RS. If that had happened in a heavily populated place, the death toll would be massive. Compare the 7.0 in Haiti. Lugnuts (talk) 17:28, 21 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
But it did not. The magnitude of the earthquake does not make it inherently notable, and no casualties occurred. Diego Grez ^{what's up?} 17:36, 21 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Not notable. Its 7.3 magnitude alone does not make it notable in the absence of a significant impact, like casualties. --18:29, 21 August 2010 (UTC)
Delete If it could be shown that earthquakes of this magnitude are way out of the ordinary for Ecuador, possibly it could be notable. As it is, "2010 Ecuador earthquake" produces quite a few ghits - with varying dates so obviously not all the same one. This one also is given different strengths, 7.1 in the article, 7.3 above, and 6.9 by the BBC. I don't get the feeling that any particular quake merits the title of "2010 Ecuador earthquake" to the exclusion of all others. Peridon (talk) 19:19, 21 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep under the "Rule of 7"... Carrite (talk) 05:54, 22 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

with a bonus Comment - Earthquake documentationists, please make an effort at providing the world with more than one line and a map. Put some pride into your work! Carrite (talk) 05:54, 22 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as Wikipedia isn't a place for news reports. No evidence of lasting impact. That it's magnitude was 7.3 doesn't change this. Armbrust ^Talk _Contribs 12:59, 22 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete This earthquake does not meet the proposed guidelines for notability at WikiProject Earthquakes, note that deep or intermediate focus earthquakes (this one was >200 km) are normally excluded if they do no significant damage. I will add this to the List of earthquakes in Ecuador that I am currently constructing. Mikenorton (talk) 16:45, 22 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. The USGSshakemap is green-blue - so this is notable as a magn. 3.0 quake. The depth is all that matters. Also, warn the creator he is making a mess with his creations see his talk page.--DAI (Δ) 12:37, 24 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
