GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)

1. It is reasonably well written.

   a (prose): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):

   • … it formed in the Bay of Campeche off the east coast of Mexico from a tropical wave. — "east coast" here is imprecise, since it could mean the Caribbean. If anything, mention that the BoC is in the Gulf of Mexico.
   • … Lorenzo intensified from a 35 mph (55 km/h) tropical depression to an 80 mph (130 km/h) hurricane. — Both of these numbers should be hyphenated.
   • Overall there were six deaths in the country, five in Puebla and of which three were a family that perished in a landslide. — confusing sentence structure, please rephrase. Also, mention where the other death was located for completeness.
   • … it traversed much of the Caribbean Sea before developing an area thunderstorms on September 21. — fix
   • … Initially a Hurricane Hunters flight was scheduled to investigate the system — add comma after "initially"
   • … In its formative stages, the depression executed a small cyclonic loop.[1] — "cyclonic" is excessive jargon in this case.
   • Primarily affected along the coast were small fishing villages, — awkward passive voice

2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.

   a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):

3. It is broad in its coverage.

   a (major aspects): b (focused):

   • The impact section is too small. See es:Huracán Lorenzo (2007) for more detail that could easily be added to the article.
   • Is an aftermath section needed in this case?

4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.

   Fair representation without bias:

5. It is stable.

   No edit wars, etc.:

6. It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.

   a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):

7. Overall:

   Pass/Fail:

   • See the points above. Titoxd^{(?!? - cool stuff)} 05:57, 29 May 2011 (UTC)

Alright, I got the grammary stuff. Some of it I just changed around the wording (so it wasn't exactly your suggestion). As for the Spanish article, I think I got the majority of the good stuff out of it. --♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 20:37, 29 May 2011 (UTC)

The modifications are satisfactory. Passed. Titoxd^{(?!? - cool stuff)} 06:50, 30 May 2011 (UTC)
