Miscellany for deletion/Weather Alerts


– (View MfD) &#8203;

This is a group of drafts was created by, who is now indefinitely blocked from editing the draft and article spaces. These drafts were spam created, and have little usable material and no sources. I believe these drafts should simply be deleted as they are a continuation of the problem mentioned in the user's previous block in the article space. I also believe the inclusion of NOAA material without credit may be a potential copyright problem since credit is required for usage, however, I am unsure on that.

 * Re: copyright, public domain content can be used onwiki, as long as it is properly attributed (and tagged with pd-notice). Chlod (say hi!) 20:51, 12 October 2021 (UTC)


 * Delete all regardless of the notability of the subjects, these simply are not acceptable encyclopedia articles. No prejudice against recreation as proper articles by any user in good standing. Beeblebrox (talk) 20:52, 12 October 2021 (UTC)


 * Delete all as there are already articles in mainspace such as Tropical cyclone warnings and watches, Dust storm warning, Avalanche (for watch and warning), Coastal flood warning, coastal flood advisory, Ice storm warning. Discussion should be made there whether advisory, watch, and warning articles should be separated, or combined and redirected. AngusW🐶🐶F  ( bark  •  sniff ) 21:16, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Here's an article that describes the differences between warning, advisory and watch.  If the main articles already have such sections, then that can be redirected to the main articles.  AngusW🐶🐶F  ( bark  •  sniff ) 21:51, 13 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Severe_weather_terminology_(United_States) has these terms described. Noah Talk 22:08, 13 October 2021 (UTC)


 * Commment Appears there are several more... Just leaving notice that I will be adding in more of the same that I missed. Noah Talk 21:58, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Redirect All - Most of these are useful search terms for real articles. Rather than just deleting them, someone with weather editing experience should redirect all of these unencyclopedic drafts from draft space to existing appropriate articles.  If there is no target for the redirection, then and only then should the unsuitable draft be tagged G6.  Robert McClenon (talk) 19:49, 13 October 2021 (UTC)
 * I'd rather have someone with the weather editing experience create some of the more useful redirects straight up in mainspace instead of using these drafts. AngusW🐶🐶F  ( bark  •  sniff ) 21:48, 13 October 2021 (UTC)
 * I don't see how anything in the draft space would be a plausible search term. These items should have mainspace redirects, but the drafts should be deleted. Noah Talk 22:08, 13 October 2021 (UTC)
