Redundant. This is a stand-alone list – it is not part of a series. We already have a series of list articles (that is almost complete going back to 1900) that covers each year in detail. Deaths are included.
So, lets keep creating the yearly lists (for notable earthquakes – not everything above a certain magnitude) and drop this one. It's just not necessary to create a series of "List of earthquakes in #### by death toll" when the topic is already covered. There's nothing to redirect this one to. Just drop it as its unnecessary.

- Delete Technically it isn't quite redundant to the articles linked by the nom, because they only give information about one year rather than allowing the most deadly earthquakes in an entire decade to be seen. However, I don't consider that a reason not to delete; Wikipedia is not a rephrasing of other Wikipedia pages in a slightly more sortable form (that's what Wikidata is for). Besides, we have List of 21st-century earthquakes already, which this is pretty much redundant to (and which would make a good redirect target if the title is considered to ease searching, which I don't think it does). --ais523 07:47, 3 October 2015 (UTC)
