Tornadoes of 2024 and WP:Weather has basic criteria for tornadoes that get articles (
WP:NWEATHER). Hey
Cutlass, honestly, I would withdraw the AfD and then just do an instant redirect to
Tornadoes of 2024#February 21 (Indonesia). The AfD is just too-long of a process (since it is a seven-day process) for this and a BOLD redirect is what I would have done. So, unless you feel we need seven days for this discussion, just withdraw and BOLD redirect it. The

The one thing thats sure is notable about this tornado is that it occured in Indonesia, a tropical country located in the equator, which doesn't get affected by the
Coriolis force, So a tornado with this magnitude shouldn't exist in Indonesia, yet it did, I feel like we should keep the article because of this one fact, I think this is notable enough.

That's not for us to decide. If academic journals start publishing articles about this, then we can talk about it.

Delete. An event being in the news does not make it notable.

It being in the news is not what made it notable, Like I said before, I feel like it occuring in Indonesia is what made it notable, Take a look at the
Port Orchard tornado, It didn't even cause any casualties, it might even deal even less damage than the Sumedang tornado, but it has an article nonetheless, because its rare, My opinion is to probably just make it a redirect at minimum.
