Review section
[edit]I am nominating this featured article for review because there are large swaths of unsourced text. There is also plenty of more recent academic literature that needs to be incorporated. The article's history section is 20 years outdated. Surely something has happened since 2001. Lastly, the article needs a thorough copy edit to fix numerous Grammar issues.

- This article is part of Wikipedia:Contributor copyright investigations/WikiProject Tropical cyclones (see page 3), and based on what I found at the Tornado FAR, it is likely to have unattributed copying within and unattributed public domain text. There are no {{Copied}} templates on talk, and no {{Pd-notice}} templates in the article. As an example, this edit did have unattributed public domain text, so the article will need a thorough check. This is not an insurmountable problem; it just requires time to check and add the necessary attributions (see the sample at the Tornado FAR) to make sure the article complies with WP:WIAFA 1f. If someone intends to restore this article to FA status, this work will need to be done. I should also note that the number of dead links and missing publishers in the citations a) invalidate Earwig results (which would need to check archive.org versions of dead links), and b) make it hard to locate the public domain sources, so the first step would be to clean up the citations to add archive.org verions and to add publishers.
