More impact. The writing doesn't seem like an 97 death storm. Hurricanehink mobile (talk) 19:10, 16 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

good observation. There just is not info for some reason, mostly due to LN and ReliefWeb giving me nothing. Y E ^Pacific ^Hurricane 19:35, 16 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The info is out there im sure - its just finding the right terms and seeking out documents - for example I saw that you had used the South African Supreme Court, so after a quick Google i found their website and these links 1, 2, 3. The current Ref 4, needs reworking to reflect that the title of the article is: Earth Week a diary of the planet for week ending March 7, 1997 and that the author of the section was Steve Newmann while ive found the Reliefweb stuff.

The 1st and 3rd documents are the same :P but that I found on google just never had a url (it opened directly to Word) and had smaller fonts. I've tweaked Ref 4. As for the RW stuff, I looked at a couple of those reports, and they mention flooding, but was it related to Liestte? I am not 100% convinced it was, though I am tempted to add stuff from this.

After looking more at the results provided by Reliefweb and a Google for Mozambique Floods with filters on, I think it might be better to refocus this article on the 1997 Mozambique flooding, rather than Lisette. This is because Lisette and Josie only aggravated the flooding that was already around.Jason Rees (talk) 23:03, 16 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I sorta agree, but given how we handle similar floods in 2000 and 2007 and given how the article IMO looks okay (though a little short) in its shape, I could go either way. Y E ^Pacific ^Hurricane 00:18, 17 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Those flooding articles and this one would need to be sorted out and got to GA before any GT could take place imo.Jason Rees (talk) 16:55, 18 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Mostly agreed, except maybe the 2007 one. Y E ^Pacific ^Hurricane 17:14, 18 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
