To make it of encyclopedic standard the article itself must vouch for the subject's notability. "It happened in Sweden and Sweden never gets earthquakes" is a very bad reason to keep the article. That way any snowfall in Sydney, Australia would qualify as notable - simply because it's a rare

455:. It seems to have received some attention in the press. It's good that no one died, but the absence of fatalities doesn't mean that it's a non-notable event. If it were non-notable, it would have attracted no significant attention, and I don't see that case being made here.

287:- Very rare event in Sweden. Had it been in "earthquake areas" in the world I would have agreed that the earthquake in itself was not notable but it is because it happened in Sweden and is a very rare event.--

Actually if it is a rare event like this one and not some small thing like 45 degrees in
Switzerland its certainly is a reason for keeping. You are making the classic apple and pears comparison.. often very

Totally unremarkable earthquake with no fatalities, not even any injuries it seems, nor even any property damage... should even be a speedy delete.
