While Wikipedia's written
policies and guidelines should be taken seriously, they can be misused.
Do not follow an overly strict interpretation of the letter of policy without consideration for the principles of policies.
If the rules truly prevent you from improving the encyclopedia,
ignore them.
Disagreements are resolved through
consensus-based discussion, not by tightly sticking to rules and procedures.
Furthermore, policies and guidelines themselves
may be changed to reflect
evolving consensus. (

Staying cool when the editing gets hot!
If you came here just to insult me, I will delete your comments without a reply.
And if I wasn't involved, personal attacks clearly warrant a block.
A strong tornado is classified as EF2 or EF3. Referring to a tornado that has either not been rated or is not EF2 or EF3 is factually incorrect. SalmonSalmonSalmon ( talk) 19:00, 26 May 2024 (UTC)

For your incredible work on Tornado outbreak sequence of May 19–27, 2024 and expanding multiple sections that very much needed it, including the Valley View, TX tornado which was just a couple sentences based off of preliminary reports before your expansion work. I know I've given you one of these before but you deserve this. ChrisWx 🌀 ( talk - contribs) 17:01, 31 May 2024 (UTC) |
Hey ChessEric! I wanted to apologize for this reversion. Yeah, I've been trying to hunt for weather-related Featured Pictures, since there is barely any, with less than a dozen tornado-related ones. The odd-thing with FPs is something called "Encyclopedic Value" or EV. The more EV an image has, the better than chance is to be promoted by the community. Right now, that tornado photograph is mid-nomination with 4 supports and 0 oppositions. However, it was listed for both the yearly article and outbreak article for EV. I really appreciate you changing images around and such, but when there is an FP chance, it is actually better to have it in multiple articles rather than just one. So yeah, really sorry about that reversion. The Weather Event Writer ( Talk Page) 22:18, 1 June 2024 (UTC)
I invite you and anyone else who wants to to edit Draft:list of particularly dangerous situation watches. It seems as if that article has sorta been forgotten about. We’ve only gotten down to 2020 (for completely listed and in some cases not even that far) and if I recall, the entries only go back to 2018. There’s still a lot more in IEM archives. Your help at expanding the list to mainspace ready format would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. (Ps I have sent this message or a variant thereof to a bunch of other people trying to get folk’s attention) West Virginia WXeditor ( talk) 19:55, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
