1932 Deep South tornado outbreak → 1932 Super Outbreak – WP:CONSISTENT —Naming consistency with the 1974 Super Outbreak and 2011 Super Outbreak. The National Weather Service office in Birmingham, Alabama officially called this a “Super Outbreak”, with their page and information about the event housed under the name, 1932 Super Outbreak and Super Outbreak - March 21, 1932. So for naming consistency, this should be 1932 Super Outbreak. Noting: This was boldly moved twice in the past to “1932 Super Outbreak” with it being reverted back to the current title both times. 2021, 2023.

Oppose – One source does not give any indication that this name is common nor widely accepted. The argument for consistency makes zero sense as these outbreaks aren't related but over 40 years apart. United States Man (talk) 21:45, 6 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Neutral Hmm, an interesting case here. USM was the one who reverted it both times, so in theory, he should’ve been the one to open up the RM to move it back. He also is the one who is all about this “NWS is all that counts”, and an NWS site confirms it. Having said that, I couldn’t find any indication on this name from any other source. 72.80.246.5 (talk) 15:54, 7 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Note: Based on editing habits, WHOIS location, and comments toward me and not content, this is a probable sock IP of User:Andrew5. United States Man (talk) 18:53, 8 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Note United States Man made that declaration without filing an SPI, thus it should be discarded as a bad-faith accusation.100.12.169.218 (talk) 22:10, 8 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Oh wow, yet another Andrew5 IP. The WHOIS and edit habits couldn't make it any more obvious for both of these. The person is just routinely mad that myself and a couple others try to keep their ban-dodging in check. United States Man (talk) 19:35, 9 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Leaning Oppose Its only referred as this by the NWS Birmingham. A mention of this can be put in, but I'm not totally sold on the name change here. ChessEric 00:48, 11 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose for now – Grazulis is wrapping up publication of a new book that has "Super Outbreak" as a classification and that could justify a change. His scale ranks it with 182 points (120+ is Historic, but he has not stated how many points for Super Outbreak). Only one official source calling this a Super Outbreak isn't sufficient to be a common name for the time being. ~ Cyclonebiskit (chat) 01:44, 11 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
