Microbursts occur commonly throughout the world. This list includes many unreferenced entries and it is hard to distinguish which ones are actually notable and why they are notable. Unlike lists of tornadoes, this list is ill-defined and the standards are not well resolved. United States Man (talk) 01:44, 19 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - Yes, the list needs work, so instead of deleting it, let's WP:FIXIT. Elijahandskip (talk) 01:46, 19 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak keep I cannot necessarily find it being discussed as a group to satisfy LISTN to the letter, but lists like these normally are considered notable nonetheless. Per WP:LISTCRITERIA the article could have a criterion to reduce the size. TartarTorte 03:07, 19 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep - But the criteria for inclusion should be spelled out. Right now it just says "notable", which may have a wikipedia specific jargon meaning that's clearly defined, but that jargon should only be used on project pages and talk pages and whatnot, we shouldn't expect a regular reader to know what that means.

- Keep A table format would be better. Listing those that killed people or caused a significant amount of damage, makes sense. Dream Focus 07:51, 19 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
