Chapman is an EF5 for sure imo, mainly based on what it did to the poured concrete foundation of that house, plus the bent railroad tracks.
Vilonia, Goldsby, and Chickasha are also well above the EF5 threshold. New Wren, MS from 4/27/2011 also sounds like a strong candidate, but I have not viewed images of the potential EF5 damage myself, so I’ll reserve judgment on that one.
Washington, Mayfield, Rochelle, and Tuscaloosa are a little more borderline, but I feel a decent argument for all four can be made, especially the latter two. Also, I’ve removed Bassfield from my personal list of “shoulda-been” EF5s list. While that cabin outside of town was bolted down and essentially vanished, photos of the cabin before hand show a small, rather frail-looking, almost barn-like structure. Just not enough for an EF5 candidate.
