10/10 OK tornadoes edit

An NWS tweet confirmed two OK tornadoes can we add? 69.112.204.237 (talk) 14:33, 11 October 2021 (UTC)Reply

Someone added them. When I tried to start the section for them, my edit got reverted while I was in the process of adding the information. Either way, problem solved and the info is added. Elijahandskip (talk) 06:01, 12 October 2021 (UTC)Reply
Sorry. I thought that snippet was all you were adding, since people usually add the chart and heading in one edit. TornadoLGS (talk) 14:51, 12 October 2021 (UTC)Reply
Ah no problem. I haven't done charts in a while, so I am still getting use to them again. In the future, I will be adding the chart and header in the same edit. That was my bad for not doing that. Elijahandskip (talk) 03:44, 13 October 2021 (UTC)Reply

Orphaned references in List of United States tornadoes in October 2021 edit

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of List of United States tornadoes in October 2021's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "DAT":

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT 22:46, 11 October 2021 (UTC)Reply

Outbreak in the South edit

As of 16:51, Oct 27th 2021, a stream of 20+ tornados are hitting the south, notably Louisiana and Texas, and soon Mississippi then alabama. MoonlightVectorTalk page 16:52, 27 October 2021 (UTC)Reply

@MoonlightVector: We are aware. We will add any tornadoes from today to this list when survey results start coming in. TornadoLGS (talk) 18:38, 27 October 2021 (UTC)Reply

Error? edit

@United States Man and TornadoLGS: Ummmmmmmmm, what's wrong with the tables from December 21 and onward?ChessEric (talk · contribs) 23:10, 11 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

Perhaps the list is too long? We ran into a similar issue before, I think at List of tornadoes in the 2011 Super Outbreak. If that's the case, splitting could fix the issue, and December certainly had enough tornadoes. I'm not quite certain it is the case, though, since I copied the contents of this page to my sandbox and everything worked fine. TornadoLGS (talk) 23:22, 11 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
@TornadoLGS: I didn't even know that was a thing. However, I don't understand why all the refs went haywire. ChessEric (talk · contribs) 23:37, 11 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
It looks like all templates stop functioning after a certain point in the list, which I'm guessing includes citation templates. I think that's what happened before at the other list. I never saw it, but I know that's why it was split for a while. And they have similar numbers of tornadoes. TornadoLGS (talk) 23:42, 11 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
And it seems to work okay now. Did somebody purge the cache or something? TornadoLGS (talk) 23:47, 11 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
Must've been a glitch or something. I think that template overload issue like with the outbreak list was fixed years ago. United States Man (talk) 00:29, 12 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
I agree with a split because the list has nearly 400 tornadoes, December could be split off and both would be reasonable plus it would show how active December was. 108.170.65.170 (talk) 00:55, 13 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
I disagree with a split. 2011 (April list and Super Outbreak) are both substantially long with no problems. United States Man (talk) 01:08, 13 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
