Hi. I'm taking on this review. Reconrabbit 17:14, 9 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for reviewing this GAN, Reconrabbit! I appreciate it, and I'm pretty sure I've resolved all your concerns below. :) ~ Tails Wx 01:03, 13 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Want to let you know that I did read your changes to the article, but there might be some delay in finishing the review. I've been pretty sick the past few days. Reconrabbit 02:55, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Alright, sounds good. Wishing you a speedy recovery! ~ Tails Wx 12:32, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Tails Wx I'm a bit better now. Some more notes. Reconrabbit 14:41, 18 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Prose notes

  • "Tornado warned-storm" or "tornado-warned storm"?
Yeah, it's "tornado-warned storm". ~ Tails Wx 01:02, 13 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Under 2019-present, the phrase "a Dominator 3" is used. Are there multiple Dominator 3s?
Nope, there's just one! Replaced "a" with "the". ~ Tails Wx 01:02, 13 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Running into some WP:PROSELINE writing under the storm chasing career, but the paragraphs are large enough for it to not make a major impact.

Broadness

  • A pretty clear timeline of the notable events in Reed's life, but lacks cohesion. I can see that being a consequence of the type of references used that are all "top 5 closest calls" etc.
  • What did he do on Storm Chasers in 2007 (-2008?)? Did he do anything notable in 2014?

Focus

  • Goes into detail on major events without repeating articles verbatim. checkY
  • Some concerns about due weight on his personal life, specifically his siblings' names and parents' divorce.
I did remove his siblings' names, but kept the info on his parents' divorce because it seemed...notable, in my opinion. ~ Tails Wx 01:02, 13 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Neutrality

  • No ongoing or recent edit wars.
  • None found, all sources in English so no concern of translated copied material, other language Wikipedia articles have little to no overlap. checkY

References

  • List style conforms to manual of style. checkY

Check sources based on this revision:

  • [1] I assume only one doctoral advisor is typically listed, but why Peter Lamb specifically? There are 2 others at the source and no indication of which matters more.
  • [6] checkY
  • [9] checkY
  • [16] Sentence describing the April 27, 2011 outbreak doesn't include the EF5 tornado this source supports.

Original research

  • All statements backed up by references. checkY

Images

  • Images currently in the article are tagged with attribution and licenses. checkY
  • There was a photo of Reed Timmer in the article before but it was deleted. Out of scope here but keep that in mind.

Misc. notes

I split his secondary education into two sentences since I felt it was too long compared to the rest of the article. Also, it was sitting on its own there. Reconrabbit 14:41, 18 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
