Talk:Tornado outbreak of April 8–9, 2015

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Tornado outbreak of April 8–9, 2015's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "apps.dat.noaa.gov":

  • From Tornado outbreak of November 16–18, 2015: https://apps.dat.noaa.gov/StormDamage/DamageViewer/
  • From Tornadoes of 2015: "NWS Damage Assessment Toolkit". Apps.dat.noaa.gov. Retrieved 2015-05-07.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT 01:39, 23 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

the tornado alone isn’t significant enough to warrant a spinoff from the outbreak article, so normally it would be merged here. But given how that’s a GA and it isn’t, and the amount of information in the article, we shouldn’t merge that as there would be too much information lost. The other tornadoes aren’t notable as they caused low damage, no deaths and no injuries. As such, I am proposing this article gets merged, with a section on other tornadoes, similar to the 2013 Hattiesburg, Mississippi tornado, another case where an individual tornado warrants an article but not the whole outbreak. It’s a better choice with lesser information lost, as the outbreak information can be incorporated into the tornado article. 96.56.151.3 (talk) 17:43, 26 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The outbreak associated with it was fairly significant and the opposite was done with the 2017 New Orleans tornado (expanded to an outbreak) so I oppose this. --MarioProtIV (talk/contribs) 18:17, 26 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
