A quick note
You've had a number of edits reverted in the past few days as being redundant, unhelpful or otherwise unnecessary. While it's OK to be bold and do this, please consider discussing similar edits on the talk page first and gaining consensus, before inserting them into the article proper. It will save everyone a lot of time and energy while you're getting the hang of editing. Thanks. ⇒  SWAT Jester   Shoot Blues, Tell VileRat! 21:08, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
 * This is an example of an unnecessary, redundant edit. Please stop adding characteristics to the ledes of firearms articles that are already directly implied by the existence of other characteristics. For example, all assault rifles are inherently select-fire and magazine-fed, as that is part of the definition of the term assault rifle; therefore it's redundant to list the AK-47 as a "select-fire, magazine-fed assault rifle." ⇒   SWAT Jester   Shoot Blues, Tell VileRat! 17:41, 8 July 2024 (UTC)

Are there ways to reduce redundancy?

Any articles with at least one issue?

Can I Be Bold?

How to report vandalism? Beluga732 (talk) 13:16, 9 July 2024 (UTC)


 * 1) don't add new redundancy. 2) Lots of them, but I'm less concerned with finding existing redundancies than I am with preventing you from creating new ones 3) yes, but repeatedly making the same mistake is not being bold; 4) please consider reading up more on Wikipedia's rules on vandalism, which explain how to do this. ⇒   SWAT Jester   Shoot Blues, Tell VileRat! 15:56, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
 * removing the word “peak” from the phrase “Idalia attaining peak Category 4 intensity and making landfall early on August 30” - is that reducing redundancy Beluga732 (talk) 19:17, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
 * no, because peak intensity and intensity are two different things. Taking away that word changes the meaning of the sentence. Taking away a redundant word does not. ⇒   SWAT Jester   Shoot Blues, Tell VileRat! 01:36, 10 July 2024 (UTC)

List of F5 and EF5 tornadoes Improvement Time!
Hello there! I am sending this alert to all members of the WikiProject Weather and editors who have recently edited in the realm of tornadoes.

There is a large and important discussion ongoing, with the goal to completely overhaul and improve the List of F5 and EF5 tornadoes. The previous improvement attempt back in 2022/2023 gained almost no participation. This alert is being sent out so these discussions hopefully gain a reasonably-sized participation, so the F5/EF5 tornado article, one of the most viewed weather-related articles on Wikipedia, can be improved for all readers!

If you wish to participate, please visit: Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Weather/Possible F5/EF5/IF5 tornadoes. The Weather Event Writer (Talk Page) 13:40, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
