Did You Know
A fact from this article appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the "Did you know?" column on April 21, 2008.
The text of the entry was: Did you know ...that despite being one of the strongest tropical cyclones to make landfall on Western Australia, Cyclone Glenda caused minimal damage and no deaths?

I hate to do this but...

[edit]

This article is not B-Class. Theres no preparations or aftermath section and the impact section is short, surely theres more infomation out there on this storm and as for the retirement of the storm name, what name replaced it? Storm05 (talk) 11:50, 16 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This is the SHem. There is never as much information as the Atlantic or EPac. The writing and grammar is very good, it includes most if not all major aspects of the storm. It's good enough for B. Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone 11:58, 16 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, but this is a recent storm and thus theres more infomation about this storm even if it is in the SHem. And thus I lowered back down to start. Storm05 (talk) 12:23, 16 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I am sorry, but this is not start. If you want, you can go look for more information, and find that no more exists. You could search for hours, (I have already checked the news sources) and there is really not that much info to work with. Please read the assessment guide. While it may not be ready for FA, it certainly is B. Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone 12:43, 16 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Also, considering that the storm caused no deaths and minimal damage, it's pretty good that Hurricanehink found this much information. Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone 12:44, 16 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Storm05, while there may not be a preps and aftermath section, if you read the article you would know that the impact section has preps and aftermath interspersed with impact. ♬♩ Hurricanehink (talk) 13:28, 16 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Good work on this article, it has passed the GA article criteria for comprehensiveness, images, sources, etc. Hello32020 (talk) 13:13, 23 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

There's still a minor manual of style issue with the article dates. Month day (e.g. "May 22") should not be wikilinked unless it's a part of the full date (e.g. May 22, 2008). Dr. Cash (talk) 14:21, 23 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Glenda a Category Four (SSHS)

[edit]

In the post season, the JTWC downgraded Glenda to a 140mph Category Four, I'm not sure why though...it doesn't really make sense..but that's what's in the best track data...Cyclonebiskit (talk) 02:51, 27 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the heads up. ♬♩ Hurricanehink (talk) 05:12, 27 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
When was that? The track map even has a red dot on it.Potapych (talk) 05:26, 27 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
The JTWC revised their assessment of Glenda in post-analysis (in the best track). ♬♩ Hurricanehink (talk) 13:51, 27 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I fixed the map. Potapych (talk) 18:07, 17 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
