September Upper Midwest Tornado Outbreak
This is not Wikinews. User:Zoe|(talk) 04:33, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge into Tornadoes of 2006 where tornado outbreaks with similar amounts of information seem to be located. Crystallina 04:45, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete The information already seems to be included in Tornadoes of 2006. eaolson 04:52, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Weak delete. The tornado doesn't seem notable enough to merit it's own article. Also, as of now, there hasn't been any major damages or injuries caused by the tornado yet.--TBC TaLk?!? 06:28, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. The outbreak included at least 6 unconfirmed tornado's and caused 1 death and is being referred to as one of the strangest storm outbreaks due to the time of the season in Minnesota.  It includes very destructive damage similar to the Tornado Outbreak of a few weeks ago. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dane2007 (talk • contribs)
 * Comment, do you have any verification of this?--TBC TaLk?!? 17:54, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge with Tornadoes of 2006. Name does not adequately describe its content. Tornado outbreaks occur in this area regularly. If we give this name to a tornado outbreak occurring in the Upper Midwest in 2006, what in the world would we call the inevitable articles on the previous or the next tornado outbreak in that area? Need to have a naming convention that permits a user to find needed articles. A series of clearly-named articles on each year's tornado outbreaks does this. A hodgepodge of oddly-named individual articles on randomly-selected outbreaks doesn't. --Shirahadasha 17:54, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge with Tornadoes of 2006 as per above. This tornado outbreak doesn't merit an article by itself. Just merge. -- Nish kid 64  19:02, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge per above. Doesn't have enough to stand on its own. StuffOfInterest 23:59, 20 September 2006 (UTC)
 * 'Merge per above. --Storkk 14:16, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge to Tornadoes of 2006 per above. Tornado counts in single digits with one fatality do not make articles, especially when none were stronger than F2. CrazyC83 23:13, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
 * KEEP. This outbreak is still ongoing. More of this weather is expected. Martial Law 02:10, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment: what's the difference between this one and Late-September 2006 Tornado Outbreak? None, right?  This is excessive coverage, I think.   blameless  02:23, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Different events. This was Sept. 15-16. That outbreak is Sept. 21-23. CrazyC83 02:53, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
 * In that case, Martial Law's comment is invalid. Thus, I'd say Merge to Tornadoes of 2006.  blameless  04:51, 23 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Merge with Late-September 2006 Tornado Outbreak or if the consensus to merge doesn't exist, Delete. Anchoress 02:30, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Why? They are different events. CrazyC83 02:53, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
 * They don't each need their own article. Anchoress 03:35, 23 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Merge to Tornadoes of 2006. As far as I can tell, there were only a few tornadoes, which doesn't qualify as an outbreak or an outbreak sequence. --Core des at talk! 05:01, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
