Re-inserting the outright incorrect daily average is asking for trouble. You know very well daily averages are calculated by NOAA as (HI + LO) / 2, and when the ending digits of the high and low are odd and even or even and odd, it is not your prerogative to break the tie and round either way. Hint: Breaking the tie involves something much more intelligent than mindlessly pressing the revert/undo button. GotR Talk 00:21, 30 June 2013 (UTC)
In the interest of assuming good faith on your part, I have addressed your new concerns by re-populating the Daily Mean data on the Dodge City, Kansas and Wichita, Kansas pages using data from the National Weather Service's "Daily/monthly normals" products at http://www.nws.noaa.gov/climate/xmacis.php?wfo=ddc and http://www.nws.noaa.gov/climate/xmacis.php?wfo=ict, respectively. The Daily Mean data I was entering before was taken verbatim from the "Avg temperature" data in the NWS's "Monthly avgs/totals" product for each city. I was not doing any rounding or deriving any figures myself.
If, however, this is an extension by other tactics of the previous debate over the inclusion of Daily Mean data, and you oppose the consensus reached here so vehemently, please take your concerns back to the Dodge City talk page, and present your case through appropriate Wikipedia:Dispute resolution channels.
Given how strongly you feel about these issues and how precise a vision you have for the presentation of Climate data, I suggest you compile your ideas into a set of clear guidelines, get consensus on them from the editor community, and present them in an appropriate forum (i.e. the Climate section of the WP:USCITY template page, Wikipedia:WikiProject Meteorology, Template:Weather box, etc.) so that other editors can clearly see them.
