Talk:List of supercentenarians born in 1905/@comment-24970987-20160110164541

Having "year of death" lists sorted chronologically makes sense; but when it comes to "year of birth" lists, it's not particularly interesting to see someone like Elvira Campagnoli listed at the very top of 1902, simply because she was born first in this cohort. Also, sorted by age makes it easier to see mortality rates (how many from each year of birth made it to 110, 111, 112, etc).

As for maintenance, it could be argued that the 1905 and 1906 lists were created too soon since there are too many living people, making updating ranks a daily routine.
