More Info[edit]

Im...Im...Im sorry but getting info on that Outbreak is...let me give you the same responce to a question from User: "X" to me via E-mail which asked "Do I belive the U.S.A. is going to make a change for the better?": Its going to take ALOT of work! You will have too Ass-kiss and Backstab but its maybe possible!!! VERY Hard but posssible! I will try and Interview people who experenced it(Including the Police Department) along with the TV News stations covering it! Wait Pationly! It will take a bit!--LoliMedia (talk) 16:46, 11 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Original Research![edit]

can i interview the police, metorologist, and civilans about this and post it on this site?--LoliMedia (talk) 16:51, 15 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Not really, that would be a form of original resarch and subject to removal. The ideal process for something like this is for the interviews to published by a reliable source, which could then be summarized and referenced by Wikipedia. Here is the policy: Wikipedia:No original research Gopher backer (talk) 21:35, 15 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Id think WAVY is a reliable sorce! --LoliMedia (talk) 13:19, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Petersburg tornado was the first F4 in Virginia[edit]

The Petersburg tornado was the first recorded F4 tornado in Virginia state history. Refer to http://www.tornadohistoryproject.com and you people will see what I mean. And I remembered the "http" this time.--Kevjgav (talk) 14:12, 19 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Petersburg tornado one of only two F4 storms in Virginia history[edit]

The Petersburg twister was one of only two known F4 tornadoes in Virginia history (the other occurring on September 24, 2001 in Rixeyville) and I think that this information should be included in the article. But I don't know how many of you agree.--Kevjgav (talk) 22:38, 15 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
