Move to mainspace
editThis appears to be sufficent enough to move to mainspace, so should be moved. 98.116.128.17 (talk) 17:25, 5 September 2022 (UTC)
- I’m waiting until one of the other decades is completed. The parent article, Draft:List of F4 and EF4 tornadoes is still in draft state, so I am trying to get either that article ready for mainspace or another decade article ready before putting this in mainspace.

should this really be here?
editthe main article was already better and why is this separate? should i ask why the main one is not a main article and still a draft Lolkikmoddi (talk) 18:12, 9 September 2022 (UTC)
- Lolkikmoddi, The main is is an article, List of F4 and EF4 tornadoes. Also, we were 100% forced to split it up by decades. With maybe 10-15% of the entire list done, we were at 191,000 bytes (standard article size is under 100,000) and Wikipedia has a true performance limit of 2 million bytes. The large list would have been pushing near the performance limit, so it was just split up by decades, which all the other decades will easily be over 100,000 bytes by themselves in an article. I had a discussion on the help desk trying to figure out what to do, and the best thing was to just ignore the rule about having empty sections (for the decades still in progress) and get this list + the main article into mainspace. Heck, this article is already 24.4k bytes in size and it is only 12 tornadoes + the standard lead. The main parent article is also already at 66,000 bytes in size.

- Wikipedia:Article size basically explains why we had to break it up. >100k bytes is “Almost certainly should be divided” and the 10-15% done list was nearly twice that. Elijahandskip (talk) 19:34, 9 September 2022 (UTC)
