Assessment

[edit]

To be a start, it needs at least some information on all the storms, not just the most notable ones. --Coredesat 23:32, 16 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I upped it to start, due to every storm having a description. What more is needed for B class? Hurricanehink (talk) 21:57, 27 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
To me, just 1 thing, numbering that depression #16 and making Storm 16 numbered Storm 17.Mitchazenia(8000+edits) 22:44, 27 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
No deal, then. :P According to Hurdat, the storm after that tropical depression was called Tropical Storm Sixteen, so that's what I'm going by. Hurricanehink (talk) 23:22, 27 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Oh well, upgraded.Mitchazenia(8000+edits) 23:31, 27 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

GA on hold

[edit]

Few minor objections,

  • I counted about 8-9 references with spaces after punctuation
  • The references [4][2] need to be [2][4]
  • Tropical Storm Nine, you mention August 21 twice but wiki-link it the second time
  • Hurricane Thirteen, the cost of damages isn't referenced
  • he passage of the hurricane resulted in cancelled train service and increased traffic.[7][8] The hurricane was indirectly responsible for two casualties. Debris from the hurricane struck a person in the head and later died. no flow

    • Re. the date, I see no problem with wikilinking it twice for WP:MOSDATE - individual preferences will change the display. So if you don't link the second one, someone whose preferences is for DAY MONTH will see "21 August" the first time and "August 21" the second. – Chacor 10:43, 31 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
What i meant is the first mention of the date is not wikilinked, but the second was. Technically it should be wikilinked at the first mention, or both. M3tal H3ad 10:50, 31 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
All are fixed except I can't ref the damage.Mitchazenia(almost 8800+edits) 17:14, 31 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Passed. M3tal H3ad 05:05, 5 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Article suggested: Storm 13

[edit]

I think it should be moved to a separate article, agreed or disagreed? CrazyC83 04:04, 7 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed, provided more information is researched. What would be an appropriate name? Hurricanehink (talk) 05:04, 7 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
1936 Mid-Atlantic Hurricane is my best idea.Mitchazenia9000+edits) 16:51, 7 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I think there could be something better. Its primary effects were in Virginia and North Carolina, peaking in Norfolk. 1936 Norfolk Hurricane or 1936 Chesapeake Hurricane? Incidentally, there was a Hurdat preliminary re-analysis on the hurricane which could be good for the article. A quick google search shows there is a lot more info out there. Hurricanehink (talk) 17:22, 7 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I'm only trying to be creative with names like the 1933 Outer Banks hurricane.Mitchazenia9000+edits) 17:25, 7 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Well, Mid-Atlantic Hurricane is very vague. To me that says "The hurricane in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean during 1936". 1936 Norfolk Hurricane gives a specific location. It's not creativity. It's whether the name makes sense. Hurricanehink (talk) 18:25, 7 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

GA Sweeps Review: Pass

[edit]

As part of the WikiProject Good Articles, we're doing sweeps to go over all of the current GAs and see if they still meet the GA criteria. I'm specifically going over all of the "Meteorology and atmospheric sciences" articles. I believe the article currently meets the criteria and should remain listed as a Good article. I have made several minor corrections throughout the article. Altogether the article is well-written and is still in great shape after its passing in 2006. Continue to improve the article making sure all new information is properly sourced and neutral. It would also be beneficial to go through the article and update all of the access dates of the inline citations and fix any dead links. If you have any questions, let me know on my talk page and I'll get back to you as soon as I can. I have updated the article history to reflect this review. Happy editing! --Nehrams2020 (talk) 04:38, 8 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
