Recently I edited the article May 2007 tornado outbreak. I noticed some plagiarism at the end of the introduction section of the article from a site known as the Insurance Journal. I reworded the content and cited the source. I also linked some wikipedia pages to locations and words to add clarity (Edwards County, Dodge County and Doppler radar in the image of the tornado tracking specifically). I also linked the word Riverfest to the Wichita Riverfest site because there is no wikipedia page on the festival and I'm sure readers would love to check it out. I also took time to add some interesting yet pertinent information about the nature of severe storms in America to the start of the Meteorological synopsis section.

I noticed that the entire section under Mechanism of Monsoons was plagiarized from a website known as LearnNext. I have made an attempt to paraphrase the first paragraph and cite the website the content is from using a footnote. I added some information towards the end of this section about the onset of the monsoon and the win travel. I have cited my source using a footnote. I linked the words Bay of Bengal, Indian Peninsula, and Sea of China to their wikipedia pages for anyone who needs a better geographical understanding of what I am talking about. Towards the bottom of the page, I added information about the effects of weak monsoon rain of the Indian economy and cited my source using a footnote. I also linked Inter Tropical Convergence Zone to a wikipedia page about the topic.

I made edits the wikipedia article Bushfires in Australia. The entire categories section was plagiarized from Marion Henkel's book. I edited the section and rephrased the information and cited Henkel's article as a source using footnotes. I have also linked bushfires to an external site about bushfire preparedness so individuals reading the article have a better understanding of the nature of bushfires and how they themselves can act in order to prevent causal harm. I also added a section on the economic impact because of its relevancy to understanding the nature of bushfires and their social and regional impact in Australia. I linked the word methodological to empiricism to provide individuals with a way to delve deeper into the thought process that garners the the list of items that are expected to be impacted.

I have recently made edits to the wikipedia page 2005 La Conchita Landslide. I linked Geological Hazard Area to the USGS explanation of Natural hazards and the precautions they are taking to prevent and reduce damages, and also the research being conducted to understand the disturbance. I think this will provide readers a resource to gain a better understanding of the nature of this topic. I linked the LCCO to their website, so readers can see the plans of the organization and look at some of their meeting notes. I also linked an article discussing the loss of La Conchita Ranch Co. to the people, and its demise, for anyone interested in reading up on the topic. I also noticed that some of the content in Setting and in the main topic areas of the article has been taken from the USGS article I have cited in references. They are now cited. From this same article I noticed that there was pertinent information about the history of the La Conchita landslide of 2005 and its causes so I added it and cited the article.
