Todo

[edit]

Well, it's not a stub...barely. But it mentions only a few storms. Jdorje 08:01, 11 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

pronouns

[edit]

This article refers to all the storms as "her" or "she". This is wrong (I believe) and inconsistent with all other articles. Storms should be referred to as "it". — jdorje (talk) 20:30, 5 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Really? I just went by the name of the storm. Are you sure that I'm not right and everyone else is wrong. Icelandic Hurricane #12 20:40, 5 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
It's highly unlikely that every other article is wrong. Jdorje is right, they are it's. Nothing more, nothing less. Hurricanehink 20:52, 5 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Well, we've never discussed it but nobody has ever disagreed before. I'd say it is currently an unofficial wikiproject standard to use non-gender-specific pronouns for storms. Icelandic: if you disagree with the standard, take the conversation to the wikiproject page. — jdorje (talk) 22:08, 5 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Nevermind, I guess it's fine. Icelandic Hurricane #12 00:34, 6 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
It is considered good writing style not to personalize anything, which would exclude the use of personal pronouns. This leads to the use of the term "one" a lot, but what can you do. At least with tropical cyclones you can always use terms like storm, system, cyclone, low, swirl, complex, etc. Thegreatdr 19:57, 11 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Headings

[edit]

I changed some of the headings so that it doesn't say "Supertyphoon/Tropical Storm XXX" because other Pacific seasons don't do this if a cyclone is a tropical storm on only one side of the dateline; See here where the first storm is headinged "Hurricane" rather than "Hurricane/Tropical Storm". Even though it crossed the dateline, it was never stronger than a Tropical Storm west of it. In general, "Hurricane/Typhoon" is used when a system is at hurricane/typhoon strength; see here for example. Finally, see here for the opposite where a system was at typhoon/hurricane strength on the west side of the dateline only, so it is headinged "Typhoon".

Track maps

[edit]

Track maps would be much appreciated, Jdorje. You don't seem to answer me on your talk page, so I'll just write it here. íslenska hurikein #12(samtal)

thanks Nilfanion. íslenska hurikein #12 (samtal) 19:30, 2 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Della's track is likely embedded in the eastern Pacific hurricane database, since it formed east of the dateline. Thegreatdr 19:55, 11 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

GA nomination status

[edit]

Track maps would be much more helpful; also a couple of unsourced statements. —Rob (talk) 15:36, 16 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Good Article nomination has failed

[edit]

The Good article nomination for 1957 Pacific typhoon season has failed, for the following reason:

This article still has too many uncited comments. Grammar is weak at best. Could be improved some more, as it's a bit difficult to read at times. Chacor 15:59, 6 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Do we have uniform standards when it comes to references? A while back, someone mentioned I should use refs, but refs only appear to be used in 1/4 to 1/3 of the articles. A number of people appear to be resistent to refs. Others, like this one, appear to use a resource section. Even if you use a resource section, shouldn't there be places in the article that annotate which resource was used where? I'm stuggling to understand all the differences; the way articles are done on wikipedia appear to be unique to the person who wrote them. At least there are some structural similarities.
