@CAPTAIN MEDUSA: There's no reason for the tornado article to be merged into the rainstorm article. This article contains substantially more information and is more up-to-date. The tornado aspect is also far more notable than the rainstorm side. ~ Cyclonebiskit (chat) 19:26, 23 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

@Cyclonebiskit: Ok let's merge the rainstorm article into here and change the title as well.___CAPTAIN MEDUSAtalk 19:28, 23 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

More Specific Title? edit

Maybe I'm just nit picking but I feel that something like "March 2019 Nepal tornado" would be better. Thoughts? TornadoInformation12 (talk) 03:00, 24 April 2019 (UTC)TornadoInformation12Reply

@TornadoInformation12: Yea the title needs changing maybe to 2019 Bara-Parsa tornado. ___CAPTAIN MEDUSAtalk 10:25, 24 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

Also agreed. I would suggest 2019 Nepal tornado per WP:METEO conventions (some examples: 1925 Miami tornado, 2008 Vancouver tornado, 2011 Smithville, Mississippi tornado, 2018 Port Orchard tornado). -RunningOnBrains^(talk) 21:33, 24 April 2019 (UTC)Reply
