Article basis

I started this with only that one tornado in mind as that immediately requires an article on its own. However the full event will likely be incorporated in later after discussion; the naming is uncertain. The tornado list can be updated at User:CrazyC83/Outbreak0424 CrazyC83 11:59, 25 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

New list article and renaming suggestion

I am ready to add the entire list of tornadoes from this outbreak sometime this week, perhaps later today. After that we may have to rename the article if necessary. --JForget 14:55, 23 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I've checked the storm data, there are 207 tornado reports from April 20 to 27. Removing reports from the same tornado, we are easily looking at 150+ tornadoes. So I would suggest to either called the Piedras Negras-Eagle Pass tornado outbreak or the (Late?) April 2007 Tornado Outbreak Sequence. Only thing though, the fatalities all came from the pair of tornadoes. So the thing I could do is to start a separate list article from the Sequence. Even if it was from the same outbreak, a separate article for the list of tornadoes would have been needed. --JForget 16:37, 23 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I've noticed that the reports are duplicate, so the number is much lower. Still, a separate list is needed as being over 80 tornadoes at least during the sequence. What's the best for this article, an outbreak sequence from the 20th to the 27th or a bit after or simply the outbreak from the same system that produced the killer tornado--JForget 16:56, 23 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

See: User:JForget/List of tornadoes from the Late-April 2007 tornado sequence (yes I forgot a word in the title). --JForget 20:09, 23 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Renaming

Generally, I am in favor of naming articles based on what is most notable. In this case yes there were a lot of tornadoes, but 10 years from now nobody is going to remember the other 91 tornadoes that did not cause fatalities. So in this case I don't see a problem with naming it Piedras Negras-Eagle Pass torando outbreak. This same issue just came up with Utica, Illinois Tornado Outbreak. Someone renamed it April 20, 2004 Tornado Outbreak becuase there were tornadoes outside of Utica. But I renamed it back to April 2004 Utica tornado outbreak. I guess when possible I like to try and avoid all cookie cutter names. Gopher backer (talk) 16:36, 13 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I moved "Piedras Negras-Eagle Pass Tornadoes" to "Piedras Negras-Eagle Pass tornadoes" to comply with Wikipedia:Naming conventions (events). --Rosiestep (talk) 23:50, 11 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Added year per Wikipedia:WikiProject Severe weather/Tornado's naming convention. --Rosiestep (talk) 23:38, 3 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed merge of List of late-April 2007 tornado outbreak sequence tornadoes into Tornado outbreak sequence of April 20–27, 2007

Both articles contain separate tornado tables that need to be merged one way or the other. Oddly, despite both existing for nearly 15 years, neither of them directly linked to each other until now. Ionmars10 (talk) 19:11, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Wow...I literally had no idea that this article even EXISTED. Please merge it as I'm working on updating the chart on the main page. ChessEric (talk · contribs) 19:04, 5 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I'm delighted to find that there's nothing at List of late-April 2007 tornado outbreak sequence tornadoes that isn't already here. Literally, most of the entries are word-for-word identical, so I'm going to go ahead and redirect the other one in this direction. Joyous! | Talk 18:00, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Y Merger complete.
