Minimal effects and no lasting impact. No encyclopedic or education entry can be created. This is a good example of scientific interest not aligning with encyclopedic notability Dawnseeker2000 20:06, 21 December 2018 (UTC)

- Keep and Comment I have been avoiding these earthquake AfDs, because the earthquake wikiproject seem determined to delete many articles that meet WP:GNG, and even some that meet their own criteria. This nomination is a classic example. How can you say "No encyclopedic or education entry can be created" when an encyclopaedic entry exists? How can scientific interest, as shown in the existence of reliable sources, not align with encyclopaedic notability? In this case, in addition to the sources included in the article, I also find 'Geodetically inferred coseismic and postseismic slip due to the M 5.4 31 October 2007 Alum Rock earthquake', Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America, 2009, J. R. Murray-Moraleda and R.W. Simpson , 'The 2007 M5.4 Alum Rock, California, earthquake: Implications for future earthquakes on the central and southern Calaveras Fault', JGR Solid Earth, 2010, by David H. Oppenheimer, William H. Bakun et al , 'Response of Alum Rock springs to the October 30, 2007 Alum Rock earthquake and implications for the origin of increased discharge after earthquakes', Geofluids, 2009, Michael Manga and Joel Rowland , 'Moderate Earthquake Ground-Motion Validation in the San Francisco Bay Area' Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America, April 2010, by Ahyi Kim, Douglas S. Dreger, and Shawn Larsen . Definitely meets WP:GNG. The previous AfD for an article about this 31 October 2007 earthquake was started on 31 October 2007. Clearly, the editors who thought it was not notable, and would never be notable, did not have crystal balls - the existence of articles published several years after the event is evidence of its notability.
