1997 Jarrell tornado picture

Please IGNORE the | discussion linked here that I started because I did not know this at the time; but I started a discussion on the wrong file. Please direct any comments on the dead man walking tornado to the actual deletion discussion | linked here. And also, please ignore my struck out comments on that discussion. Apparently I didn’t know until just now that there were TWO pictures taken in the exact same spot, by the exact same person, and presumably by the exact same camera. Just at different times. West Virginia WXeditor (talk) 20:46, 28 May 2024 (UTC)

Yea, it’s an 8-picture photo sequence, the famous photo was photo #7 and the photo in which is on the document is photo #6. It’s crazy how they were only taken a few seconds apart. Thanks for the concerns though! :P MemeGod ._. (My talk page, my contributions and my creations!) 21:01, 28 May 2024 (UTC)

List of Texas hurricanes

Hiya MemeGod. I wondered if you had any interest in help writing up the main article for the List of Texas hurricanes? Right now, it just exists as a disambiguation page, but it could have generic stuff like climatology, a list of the strongest landfalls (like Florida has), and maybe a list of the deadly storms (I don't know how many there were). ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 20:32, 29 May 2024 (UTC)

Hey! Sure, I can get to it by Friday (currently on a break). I can also honestly help with whatever you need help with, summer is extremely boring for me. Thanks! :) MemeGod ._. (My talk page, my contributions and my creations!) 20:44, 29 May 2024 (UTC)

Don't worry about any deadlines. Draft:List of Texas hurricanes - I made a draft to experiment on the best format. We need something, and we need stuff to be sourced (and it can't be copied from elsewhere on Wikipedia). I set up stuff. Once I'm done with List of California hurricanes, I can help set some things up. To format it like List of Florida hurricanes would include having a list of every major hurricane on record. Think that's worth adding? ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 00:31, 2 June 2024 (UTC)

Also, just a word of friendly advice, I saw you had a conversation below where someone wanted to contact you via email. I don't mean any disrespect to MillieBeatle, but you should always be careful if someone wants to contact you outside of whatever platform you are on. Always consider basic internet security and safety when you're reaching out to people. You never really know who you're interacting with, although that would be bad faith, and it is also good to have a policy of assuming good faith from fellow editors. Hope you don't mind the advice. Cheers! ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 00:33, 2 June 2024 (UTC)

No, I completely understand! I’ve been on the intenrt to know who is good and bad (heck I took a cybersecurity course) and they are a genuine good person. But yeah, I’ll take that advice! :D WxTrinity (talk to me!) 12:57, 2 June 2024 (UTC)

Good work on 1930 Montello tornado

Hey! I wanted to tell you great job with the creation of the article! I added a clean-up tag on the article as there is a couple of punctuation and reference errors I quickly noticed. If someone else doesn't fix them before I come back, I plan to fix them, so don't worry about the tag on it. Again, really great work! I'll make some notes on the talk page if I see anything that needs fixing or correcting (besides basic MOS edits). If I do find something besides basic MOS stuff, would you like me to ping you on the talk page or just leave the comment without a ping? The Weather Event Writer (Talk Page) 20:19, 31 May 2024 (UTC)

Thanks! Also, I’ll add the “aftermath” and other sections once I get home, Wikipedia really isn’t optimized for mobile devices. You can leave a comment without the ping, I have the talk page in my watchlist. Have a great day! :D WxTrinity (talk to me!) 20:22, 31 May 2024 (UTC)

I’m honestly surprised an article hasn’t already been made for it, the tornado track sticks out like a sore thumb on Tornado Archive and other sites. WxTrinity (talk to me!) 20:29, 31 May 2024 (UTC)

Right before you had your Wikibreak a while ago, I mentioned that there is a lot of old tornado stuff that needs worked on. I wasn't kidding about that. Basically, anything pre-2011 Super Outbreak is in really bad shape with only a handful of exceptions (like Tornado outbreak of May 4–6, 2007). There is so much missing. Until last year, the 1964 Central Nebraska tornado (an official US F5 tornado) had a single sentence on Wikipedia. A single sentence for an official F5 tornado. EF0 tornadoes get more than that in 2024, and yet, it didn't have but 1 sentence. Welcome to tornado-editing on Wikipedia! (lol). If you want, I think both Jarrell and Montello...with some additional fine-tooth comb work...could reach good article status. If you want to work to get those to GA status, just let me know and I can guide you through that process. The Weather Event Writer (Talk Page) 22:31, 31 May 2024 (UTC) P.S., don't nominate either for GA yet, as both still need a good amount of work, but I am here to help if you want to aim for GA on either of them. The Weather Event Writer (Talk Page) 22:31, 31 May 2024 (UTC)

I noticed that a lot of things were just straight up missing. Heck, the Montello tornado got a small mention on the “tornadoes of 1930” page but nothing else! WxTrinity (talk to me!) 22:36, 31 May 2024 (UTC)

• Quick MOS note: So I noticed it on 1997 Jarrell tornado and 1930 Montello tornado. When placing a reference mid-sentence, it goes after the comma;like The tornado directly impacted Volpago del Montello at F5 intensity,[4] flattening well-built structures and sweeping an entire warehouse off of its' foundation. instead of before the comma. Likewise, references go at the end of sentences, after the period; like It hit the southern portions of Muson, causing damage but no fatalities.[5] No need to apologize or anything like that. But, since I have seen it in two articles you wrote, I wanted to let you know about it and see some examples [bolded to show where it is] of how the formatting works. Hope that helps! If you have any questions, feel free to ping me or message me on my talk page! Cheers! The Weather Event Writer (Talk Page) 22:19, 31 May 2024 (UTC)
• Hey there, WxTrinity, and great work on the article as well! I also added another tag, a {{improve categories}} tag, since there's only one category and more categories should be added. Additionally, I've reviewed the article as I believe it passes notability guidelines; those issues outlined in the article aren't too significant and can be cleaned up. Thanks! :) ~ Tails Wx (🐾, ⛈️, ⚧️) 00:46, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

  Thanks! I’ll get started in cleaning it up today! :D WxTrinity (talk to me!) 13:38, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

Request

This is extremely out of the blue, however I am new to wikipedia and I was wondering if I could get your assistance related to tornados

Sorry if this disturbs you, however you seem open to interaction with people right now. MillieBeatle (talk) 01:31, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

Yeah, sure! Sorry for the late reply, but whatever you need help with, I can definetely be of assistance! :) WxTrinity (talk to me!) 13:13, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

The amount of information that is on tornados on Wikipedia is extremely inconsistent.

This is very apparent when you compare states on the western seaboard to New England. Even though Tornados are just as rare in New England as parts of the west coast, most states in New England have lists of tornados and show which tornados occurred in a given year.

This is a topic that interests me, however I know like noting about wikipedia or editing it so if you be kind enough to help me out with all of that I would really appreciate it :3

If you are willing to, Is there a way to contact you off of Wikipedia so messaging would be easier?

Thanks in advance MillieBeatle (talk) 14:53, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

Yea, I'd love to help! Is it okay if we keep it on-site, I've just have had some really bad experiences in the past with people off-site (not saying you are a bad person, I'm, sure you're great). But again, I'm free to help! :3 WxTrinity (talk to me!) 15:34, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

It is obviously okay if we keep it on site, I do not wish to make you uncomfortable.

If that is that us what you prefer I suppose I will start to at least attempt to make a few pages, and I can send them over and ask you what to change.

However I would greatly appreciate if there was an alternative way to talk since I feel just with the nature of this it would make for an easier back and forth discussion.It seems to talk a while to get responses on the talk page

I completely understand your previous situations, and again, it's completely okay if you'd prefer to keep it here, but I do not get notifications from wikipedia so it is a bit annoying to keep checking back here.

I do genuinely want to help with all the tornado stuff, however is is extremely daunting and having someone to at least talk to would be nice. If there is anyway I could prove to you this is completely in good faith let me know.

I'm sorry that you have had poor experiences in the past. MillieBeatle (talk) 15:59, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

Okay, that makes perfect sense. I honestly believe that you are a good person, no need to “prove” it! Do you have email or something? By-phone would also work. Whichever way works best for you! Thanks for reaching out! :D WxTrinity (talk to me!) 16:03, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

I have the email linked the my account, however since I just created it and dont have 10 edits you would have to send the first message. (iirc you also have the have one linked ans turned on)

If you have any instant messaging stuff along the lines of discord or similar, that would be the easiest but phone and/or email work a lot better then here.

Anyways, We can discuss all that and exchange contact information in the email, lmk if there is anything else you need MillieBeatle (talk) 16:08, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

Okay, I’ll get to it WxTrinity (talk to me!) 16:25, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

Just wanted to follow up and say I haven't received anything

It's totally fine if you don't want to exchange contact over email just lmk MillieBeatle (talk) 20:19, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

Oh, I can’t see your email, you’d have to email me (I added a button at the bottom of my user page) WxTrinity (talk to me!) 20:23, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

When I try to it says That my account isn't auto confirmed

Here, this is too complicated, I don't really have a reason to concerned as the following are public

Normally my discord has friend requests restricted but I am gonna remove that rq if you prefer to contact me that way, Discord would be the easiest option as it is the only way I can reliably receive messages on my Phone, Laptop, and desktop

Both of these are just my user name on here, if you need to contact me via email it's just gmail MillieBeatle (talk) 20:41, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

Okay, I sent an email to you, I‘ll send a discord request but I’m not really on it that often. Either way, anything works! :D WxTrinity (talk to me!) 20:45, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

A kitten for you!

Hi WxTrinity! I just wanted to thank you for all your hard work in tornado-related articles! P.S. How about archiving your talk page, as there are quite a bit of threads and it takes quite some time to load. If you want, you can check out my talk page to see how I set it up to happen automatically :). Cheers!

Cocobb8 (💬 talk • ✏️ contribs) 19:32, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

Thanks so much! Also, yea, I’ve been trying to get one set up, my talk page is definitely wayyy too long. Have a great rest of your Saturday! WxTrinity (talk to me!) 20:04, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

Donald Trump edits

If I see your history correctly, you are promoting that you see it as your mission to have convicted felon in the first sentence, and then you are subsequently changing your username? A neutral point of view does not have convicted felon in the first sentence. That is done to push your own agenda on a topic that is currently newsworthy. If you are simply consumed with hate and want a jab in the first sentence I can see "only US president to be twice impeached" but that too does not deserve to be in the first sentence. The first sentence should be a simple straightforward non controversial fact. Nevilleaga (talk) 13:09, 2 June 2024 (UTC)

What? My username change is completely unrelated. Also it’s the opposite, I reverted someone who put “convicted felon” in the sentence due to the open RfC. Thanks for your concerns! WxTrinity (talk to me!) 13:10, 2 June 2024 (UTC)

I have a somewhat abandoned draft article you can help me with.

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 if I recall, the entries only go back to 2019. 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. West Virginia WXeditor (talk) 18:15, 8 June 2024 (UTC)

Okay, unfortunately I will be gone for 2 weeks but when I return maybe I can work on it? Sir MemeGod ._. (talk - contribs - created articles) 19:25, 8 June 2024 (UTC)

Ok. I sent this message to several others too (such as @Ks0stm, @WeatherWriter, @TornadoLGS, and @TornadoInformation12). Just trying to draw attention to the draft before it ends up getting abandoned. West Virginia WXeditor (talk) 19:34, 10 June 2024 (UTC)

@Sir MemeGod, If you are going to reply, please do so on the article talk page. There is a similar discussion going on there. Do not reply here. Thank you. West Virginia WXeditor (talk) 21:42, 11 June 2024 (UTC)
