Hey, so I'm wondering if you'd know someone or a group of people who are willing to help refurbish some old tornado outbreak articles. Mainly Tornado outbreak sequence of June 3–11, 2008# and June 2010 Northern Plains tornado outbreak# where I've contributed a bit to some of the tornadoes.

It'd be nice to have someone or a group lend a hand into these. Thanks for reading.

Thanks for uploading File:Old Lexington Pike Crittenden KY 2012.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of non-free use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 18:33, 21 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

You did well. It’s too bad you say you won’t be very active on Wikipedia, you are a very promising editor.

Even if you aren’t very active, you can still join Wikipedia:WikiProject Weather. You would be a valuable addition. 🌀Hurricane Wind and Fire (talk) (contribs)🔥 04:14, 24 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited 2019 Lawrence-Linwood tornado, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page ABC News. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed that your recent edit to 2019 Lawrence-Linwood tornado did not have an edit summary. Collaboration among editors is fundamental to Wikipedia, and every edit should be explained by a clear edit summary, or by discussion on the talk page. Please use the edit summary field to explain your reasoning for an edit and/or to describe what it changes. Summaries save time for other editors and reduce the chances that your edit will be misunderstood. For some edits, an adequate summary may be quite brief.

The edit summary field looks like this:

or in the visual editor:

Please provide an edit summary for every edit you make. When logged in to your Wikipedia account, you can give yourself a reminder by setting Preferences → Editing → Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary (or the default undo summary), and then click the "Save" button.
