WikiProject Winter storms

There is a discussion started by User:Juliancolton at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Meteorology about a proposed/possible new WikiProject called WikiProject Winter storms. Feel free to voice your opinion on the proposal.--JForget 01:35, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

Good catch

Thanks for that, well spotted. Cheers, ~ User:Ameliorate! ^{(with the !) (talk)} 09:42, 17 October 2008 (UTC)

Another good catch

Thank you! People who commit serial vandalism under different user names can confuse Bears of Very Little Brains, like myself :-) --Bonadea (talk) 10:27, 24 November 2008 (UTC)

Comments needed

You are receiving this message because you are listed as an active participant in WikiProject Meteorology, WikiProject Severe weather, and/or WikiProject Non-tropical storms. I have made a proposal to start an official assessment page for these three projects, under the WP:METEO banner. Since this would need significant participation to work properly, I'd like input from as many interested parties as possible (even those who may not watch the project pages), so please visit the discussion here and leave your thoughts/opinions. Thanks! -RunningOnBrains 02:38, 23 February 2009 (UTC)

Hurricane Andrew

"This was the conclusion of Tetsuya Theodore Fujita, a University of Chicago meteorologist who devised the Fujita scale for measuring the strength of tornadoes, after he surveyed Andrew's destruction in the Homestead area. " I think the edit was saying that "this was the conclusion of Fujita... after he surveyed the destruction", not that he devised the Fujita scale after surveying the destruction. But yeah, this was a real awkward sentence, since why would we have to say he concluded it after surveying? Surely he wouldn't conclude it without surveying. :) Good catch. --Golbez (talk) 15:12, 5 November 2009 (UTC)

Ah, I now see what the sentence was actually supposed to mean... ok, then I just clarified it I suppose. ;) Andreas Willow (talk) 15:15, 5 November 2009 (UTC)

And, come to think of it, perhaps you could source the claim that Fujita was involved? I wouldn't know where to start, but if he did make the claim it is indeed noteworthy. Andreas Willow (talk) 15:21, 5 November 2009 (UTC)

Chile Earthquake

Blocking IP Range

I appreciate that you are going to block my IP address here.

As an Network Administrator of an Network including a few thousands machines i decided to block the IP range of www.wikipedia.org completly. Have a nice day!

-> http://www.mywikibiz.com/The_Six_Rotten_Pillars_of_Wikipedia

A Page which is baseing of rules like that should not be seen by anyone. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.238.137.32 (talk) 16:49, 25 June 2010 (UTC)

FYI

I happened to bump into you while following fairly random links, but I thought it might be worth mentioning that editors (including IPs) are quite within their right to blank their own talk pages and remove anything and everything they feel like. If they remove vandalism warnings, that's taken as an acknowledgement and understanding of the message. The only thing that can't be removed is a declined unblock request while the block they were appealing is still in place. Best, HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 00:36, 26 June 2010 (UTC)

In fact I put up that warning not because he cleared his own talk page, but because he deleted my comment at Talk:Corexit here. But thanks for your advice anyways. ;) Andreas Willow (talk) 07:34, 26 June 2010 (UTC)
