2024 Clarkson floods: This is only a minor flood with minor damage and no injuries.  This will not have a lasting effect .

WC Quidditch ☎ ✎ 04:45, 14 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete does not seem to be the sort of event with enduring notability.  – Tera tix ₵ 09:45, 14 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep significant event that took place in Australia.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 101.189.11.78 ( talk ) 03:14, 15 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Being "significant" is not a criterion for notability.  You need to demonstrate how it meets WP:EVENT .  LibStar ( talk ) 06:59, 15 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] What is significant about it?  Will people care about it in ten years?  – Tera tix ₵ 07:03, 15 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Merge to Clarkson, Western Australia per nom's rationale.  -- Slgrandson ( How's my egg-throwing coleslaw? ) 06:33, 15 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Talk!  07:47, 21 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete Per WP:EVENTCRIT : "Routine kinds of news events (including most crimes, accidents, deaths, celebrity or political news, "shock" news, stories lacking lasting value such as "water cooler stories," and viral phenomena) – whether or not tragic or widely reported at the time – are usually not notable unless something further gives them additional enduring significance."  Not a particularly notable natural disaster.  AusLondonder ( talk ) 08:29, 21 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete , as with many unfortunate incidents or minor disasters, relevance is typically limited to the affected region/country.  Without WP:SUSTAINED coverage, ideally internationally, there is no demonstrating it has a WP:LASTING effect and therefore, cannot be adjusted to be notable.  I wouldn't object a condensed version being merged into Clarkson, Western Australia .  Bungle ( talk • contribs ) 10:12, 21 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I object as well to merging with Clarkson, Western Australia.  The floods covered more than just Clarkson.  The article claims that Clarkson, Butler, Joondalup, Currambine, Ridgewood and Mindarie were all flooded or at least received warnings.  I still think a straight up delete would be the best course of action.  Steelkamp ( talk ) 10:24, 21 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Agree, I also oppose merge.  LibStar ( talk ) 10:52, 21 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I was more thinking that I would not have any particular concerns if it were mentioned it in an article relevant to the region, rather than a full-on entire merge (hence "condensed version").  I am not familiar with the geography of the region, but appreciate that if it affected multiple places, then mentioning in only one article would not always be appropriate (although the title of the article itself mentions Clarkson, so this seemed to be the worst affected I would imagine).  Fundamentally, my preference is in agreement to delete, which I ! voted for.  Bungle ( talk • contribs ) 11:52, 21 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Redirect to Floods in Australia - I agree that its not notable on its own, and that it shouldn't be redirected/merged with the Clarkson article, but there is another reasonable redirect target -- DannyS712 ( talk ) 07:04, 23 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] It's not even mentioned on that list, and why should it be?  It's not a very significant flood.  – Tera tix ₵ 07:12, 23 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Yeah, 11 days after the flood and no one is talking about it anymore.  It has been out of the news since 1 day after the flood.  This flood simply is not very signficant.  Steelkamp ( talk ) 07:20, 23 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Redirect And add to Floods in Australia , per DannyS712.  12.11.109.231 ( talk ) 10:37, 23 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the debate.
