Cheers to you!

I saw you made the January 1982 California floods article I requested! I appreciate that the detailed article you wrote about a important historical event that could easily be overlooked, if not for it being on Wikipedia. Cheers to you ChrisWX (if you're old enough to drink lol) ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 23:57, 21 February 2024 (UTC)

Thank you very much @Hurricanehink, was glad to find that to write about, and very much appreciate it! I've noticed your own work on Wikipedia and I've always thought that what you do is great as well. ChrisWx 🌀 (talk - contribs) 00:24, 22 February 2024 (UTC)

Please banned this one. He always add this link thanks Berak Al Bukhori (talk) 20:43, 1 April 2024 (UTC)

@Berak Al Bukhori: Hey there! I don't know if I can help with that as I'm not an administrator, and I'm not sure if the link provided is being used as spam. Both you and @SurahYaseen111: need to be mindful of the edit warring policy, as it appears that the two of you are engaging in a slow edit war over this link. Please use the talk page to reach a consensus for its inclusion. Thanks, ChrisWx 🌀 (complaints - destruction) 21:45, 1 April 2024 (UTC)

Username styling

Hi, sorry if I'm bothering you, but how did you get your username to change colors and text like that? It looks really cool, and i've been wrecking my java and common.js page trying to find out how. I've been trying to add my contribs and created articles, but I can't find anything on the matter. Thanks! :) MemeGod ._. (talk) 14:02, 9 May 2024 (UTC)

Hello @MemeGod27:! You may find this this information page on customizing your signature useful for finding out how to change your signature color and link to your contributions, as well as other pages you may like to link to. Here's an example of a sig that would include what you would like, and if you'd like to change the color, the process of how to do that is in the information page above, I believe:

I have a somewhat abandoned draft article you can help me with

I invite you and anyone else who wants to to edit Draft:list of particularly dangerous situation watches. It seems as if that article has sorta been forgotten about. We’ve only gotten down to 2020 (for completely listed and in some cases not even that far) and if I recall, the entries only go back to 2018. There’s still a lot more in IEM archives. Your help at expanding the list to mainspace ready format would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. (Ps I have sent this message or a variant thereof to a bunch of other people trying to get folk’s attention) West Virginia WXeditor (talk) 20:02, 10 June 2024 (UTC)

@WestVirginiaWX: I can help with that draft and look through the IEM archives to expand it, also providing images from SPC where available. Thank you for notifying me about it! ChrisWx 🌀 (talk - contribs) 06:08, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

I am having issues finding watches before 2005, as the PIL codes I know of for IEM (SVA/TOA for VTEC, WCN for PIL searches) don't seem to be kept that far back in time, so there may need to be discussion on how to deal with that. ChrisWx 🌀 (talk - contribs) 06:15, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

Well I guess I’m mistaken then. I just know that tornado and severe thunderstorm warnings do go back to at least 1991; and I know that blizzard warnings go back to at least March of 1993 because there are warnings from the blizzard of ‘93 on file. And I also know that high wind warnings go back intermittently to at least 1989. I just guessed by logic that watches would be the same way. I guess not. West Virginia WXeditor (talk) 09:24, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

But as for that issue. I don’t know how to help you there. The SPC archive goes back I believe to 2004; but beyond that, I don’t know. West Virginia WXeditor (talk) 09:25, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

But I’m glad you told me because I also had TornadoLGS searching for the watches too. And I had brought up the PIL code search on his talk page; Fortunately I was able to post a comment warning him not to go looking for PIL codes to watches that ain’t in the records; assuming he hasn’t read the original entry and chose not to respond. West Virginia WXeditor (talk) 09:38, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

@WestVirginiaWX: I believe that watches are the same way, because there are mentions of PDS tornado watches all the way back until April 2, 1982, but that they simply aren't stored by the archives. Perhaps we could include something in the article which states that reliable record keeping of the watches started in 2004, although the earliest was issued in 1982? That would be my idea on how to handle it, personally. I also think that both of these discussions (the one on this talk page and TornadoLGS' talk page) should be moved and centralized on the draft's talk page in order to have a central place we can discuss this issue on. ChrisWx 🌀 (talk - contribs) 19:42, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

Moved to Draft talk:List of particularly dangerous situation watches § How should we handle PDS watches with archival issues being present?

 – ChrisWx 🌀 (talk - contribs) 20:01, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

You mean the talk page of about a dozen people. I sent this to @Ks0stm; I sent it to @WeatherWriter; I sent it to @Sir MemeGod; I sent it to just about everyone I could find that was on a weather related talk page at the time. (Including unknowingly one of Lokicat’s sock puppets; we don’t need to go into that detail, thought he was a legitimate editor at the time, until I saw his name appear in a sockpuppetry investigation.) West Virginia WXeditor (talk) 20:07, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

I know, but my talk page and TornadoLGS' talk page were where the topic of watch archive problems was actively being discussed, so I wanted to move those discussions over to that discussion on the draft's talk page. ChrisWx 🌀 (talk - contribs) 20:19, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

Louisiana tornadoes

Hey there! Thanks for reaching out. I totally think there could be a List of Louisiana hurricanes.

Here is a good resource

It appears that there have been thousands of tornadoes in Louisiana. So my immediate thought is: do you want to go for an overview, and maybe only include significant (F2 or higher) or deadly tornadoes? Or are you trying to get every single event in the state? Hurricanehink mobile (talk) 03:22, 12 June 2024 (UTC)

@Hurricanehink mobile: Hey there, you're welcome, and thanks for the response and the resource! I was having some issues finding sources for the general/average activity so that is greatly appreciated. I think an overview would be best, with only significant/deadly tornadoes. ChrisWx 🌀 (talk - contribs) 03:24, 12 June 2024 (UTC)

Additionally, I do have an active userspace draft on it here now. ChrisWx 🌀 (talk - contribs) 03:26, 12 June 2024 (UTC)

 Self-trout for misspelling the state name at first, now fixed. ChrisWx 🌀 (talk - contribs) 06:15, 12 June 2024 (UTC)

And self trout for talking about tornadoes but naming this section after hurricanes XD Hurricanehink mobile (talk) 16:00, 18 June 2024 (UTC)

Happy First Edit Day!
