Chernobyl disaster[edit]

Where is the reference for the 39000 dead in the Chernobyl section? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 145.131.179.248 (talk) 13:37, 11 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned references in List of disasters by cost[edit]

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of List of disasters by cost's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "costliest":

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT 03:37, 15 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Disease outbreaks[edit]

Should this article include disease outbreaks? Those are very costly. For example, SARS-Cov-2 as of 6th, Feb 2020 is estimated to be already the costliest outbreak at over $62 billion: https://www.hpnonline.com/infection-prevention/crisis-planning-outbreak-response/article/21124499/coronavirus-becomes-worlds-costliest-epidemic-at-over-62-billion — Preceding unsigned comment added by 178.235.176.232 (talk) 22:10, 16 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

1998 Montreal Ice Storm not listed[edit]

Some estimate up to 5 billion in damage 66.131.202.46 (talk) 17:04, 8 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Chernobyl Disaster Is Not $2T when adjusted for inflation[edit]

The $700B figure is from a research paper calculating 30 year impact (1986-2016). So it's unfair to adjust from 1986 to 2023/4. Instead, the figure should be around 900B to adjust from 700B in 2016. 24.191.7.123 (talk) 21:00, 2 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
