List of costliest tornadoes in 2022

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

This is a database of the costliest tornadoes of each month. Many of these tornadoes lack any notability and this article seemingly fails WP:NOTDATABASE and WP:UNDUE due to the fact that non-notable tornadoes are mentioned here. The notability of the whole article is in question as well, and there is already a section for the top ten at Tornadoes of 2022. The notability and reliability of these damage totals for individual tornadoes has been called into question by numerous users as well, which is why they've been largely removed from the monthly tornado pages.

 * Probably Redirect to Tornadoes_of_2022, where the topic is already covered. I'm not seeing independent reliable source coverage of this topic as a group that would justify a stand-alone list (nor justify the WP:WEIGHT to include this amount of detail in the main article). &mdash; Rhododendrites  talk \\ 00:05, 20 March 2023 (UTC)

 * Support. This article really doesn't need to exist, as we have not created "List of costliest tornadoes" articles for the other years.

 * Draft:List of costliest tornadoes in 2021 was in progress, but if this is deleted, the draft will end up becoming stale and deleted as well. Elijahandskip (talk) 23:27, 20 March 2023 (UTC)


 * Redirect per Rhododendrites, only a few of those tornadoes are actually notable. Nova Crystallis   (Talk)  10:06, 21 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Redirect I am honestly not in favor of the List of costliest tornadoes table to begin with since some tornadoes that obviously caused A LOT of damage don't even get damage figures in their final reports. Needless to say, I find an article for it to be TOTALLY unnecessary. I'll go with the redirect option that was previously suggested here. Chess  Eric  18:58, 21 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Tornadoes of 2022 or delete. There is no reason for this list to exist, as it stands it is wicked UNDUE. The sourcing being >95% from the National Centers for Environmental Information really says it all. Trainsandotherthings (talk) 19:27, 21 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Redirect: Listcrufty, fragments forks content without good reason (basically to implement a sort function), content could easily be incorporated and improve the target. Just because a list can exist, doesn't mean it must exist or should exist.  // Timothy :: talk  21:28, 22 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Redirect. While deletion on WP:LISTCRUFT grounds would seem reasonable, I find that the information in the list is largely duplicated elsewhere. Specifically, after searching myself, I would propose Tornadoes of 2022 as the location where this information is already covered in a more succinct and encyclopedic fashion. As such, Tornadoes of 2022 is the appropriate redirect target. Shawn Teller (talk) 20:37, 25 March 2023 (UTC)
