Your Questions

You're asking a lot of questions in the edit summaries, so I figured I would stop by to answer them. :)

- In terms of whether the images on DAT are free use, yes.

- Should every tornado summary be a full sentence? Yes, always use articles (a/an/the).

- If you're looking to add an en dash, hold the Alt key and type 0150 in the numeric keypad. Or you could just copy/paste from a different section.

- Yes, EFU tornadoes are counted in the totals.

Let me know if you have any more questions, and thanks for your contributions! We can always use new members in the project. TropicalAnalystwx13 (talk · contributions) 01:34, 17 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

A barnstar for you!

	The Working Man's Barnstar

WikiProject Weather: Map Dot & Template/Infobox Colors

Dear project member, This message is being sent out to encourage new ideas and feedback on those proposed in regard to the colors debate for WikiProject Weather. For those who are unaware of what's been happening over the last year, I will give a brief summary. We have been discussing proposed changes to the colors of the dots on tropical cyclone maps and templates and infoboxes across the entire weather project in order to solve issues related to the limited contrast between colors for both normal vision as well as the various types of color blindness (MOS:ACCESS). We had partially implemented a proposal earlier this year, however, it was objected to by a number of people and additional issues were presented that made it evident this wasn't the optimal solution. We tried to come up with other solutions to address the issues related to color contrast, however, none of them gained traction and no consensus was generated.

We need your help and I encourage you to propose your own scale and give feedback on those already listed. Keep in mind that we are NOT making a decision on any individual proposal at this time. We are simply allowing people to make proposals and cultivate them given feedback from other project members. Please visit our project page for additional details. The proposal phase will close no later than December 31st at 23:59 UTC. Noah^Talk 04:26, 21 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

in-depth (not just passing mentions about the subject)
reliable
secondary
independent of the subject

Make sure you add references that meet these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:
