This page is more or less useless. A lot of this is subject to personal opinion as a "big natural disaster" is completely relative to the area in question. Regardless, this type of article is best suited for an end of the year news story, not an encyclopedia. Cyclonebiskit (talk) 00:25, 5 June 2011 (UTC)

• Comment. In the event this article is kept, its scope and title ought to be changed. It would make more sense to say "Biggest natural disasters of the 21st century" or something like that. There's no particular significance to the period from 2000 to 2011. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 02:26, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
• Delete As pointed out by the nom, there is no way for this to be anything by a personal opinion on the matter, disasters listed range from high death toll, but low economic cost, to very few deaths and large economic cost. Even if criteria for inclusion could be nailed down, having the article cover 2000-2011 makes no sense. 11 years? Monty₈₄₅ 03:31, 5 June 2011 (UTC)

• Comment. The article states the criterion as: "as determined by largest number of casualties", so the complaint that this is just "personal opinion" is unfounded. A better name would be: "List of the deadliest natural disasters from 2001 to 2011".  --Lambiam 01:18, 6 June 2011 (UTC)
• Merge to a new section Ten deadliest natural disasters of the 21th century of List of natural disasters, after pruning the list to the ten deadliest ones.  --Lambiam 01:18, 6 June 2011 (UTC)
• Perhaps incorporate into a much more general chronological list of natural disasters, (after improving to get sources), but taken for all time, with perhaps one page per century. Certainly this page itself is not adding anything new beyond its ordering, and should be deleted with that name. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 41.185.138.201 (talk) 14:46, 7 June 2011 (UTC)
