Talk:Tornado outbreak of April 15–16, 1998

message: Article needs expansion and rework for better historical accuracy of event which was far from limited to Nashville.

thread_title:  Article expansion 

message: A tornado outbreak also occured in Arkansas on the same day as the Middle Tennessee outbreak, although earlier in the day. Most sources treat this as a separate outbreak, although the CNN story referenced in this article makes no distinction between the two. In order to keep things from beng too confusing, I'm going to limit this article to the Middle Tennessee outbreak (at least for now). Kaldari 02:26, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: IMO, that would be part of the same outbreak - they were caused by the same system and were related. If there is solid information, they should go in this article which should be renamed something like Mid-April 1998 Tornado Outbreak (prefix needed to differentiate from the Birmingham Tornado of April 1998) or a better geographic name, depending on where all the tornadoes are found to be.

replies: text: I agree for the most part, although I'm concerned such a conclusion might be considered original research (without more solid info). Of all the sources I've looked at, only the CNN article seems to group them all together as one event. This article is also a bit problematic in that it was originally just about 1 tornado, then 4 (the 3 Nashville tornadoes and the F5), now 10, and perhaps soon about even more. Obviously the F3 in downtown Nashville is the most encyclopedic. As we broaden the scope of the article more it seems we may be in danger of losing the encyclopedic content within the lists and minutia. Do we really need to list every tornado that has ever occured within Wikipedia? Well, I guess that's a question for another place and time, but basically what I'm saying is that this article isn't sure what it wants to be. Is it an article about a tornado or a tornado outbreak?

text: If you think that's the best thing to do, go ahead with the changes. At some point, however, I think we may want to spin off a separate article about the tornado that hit downtown Nashville. There's certainly enough material out there to make a separate article on it. Kaldari 23:05, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Support the broader article. However, a completely new article for Nashville would be unprecedented (no other single tornado within a larger outbreak has an article independent of its outbreak). It should get a fairly lenghty section at the bottom of the article. CrazyC83 23:41, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
