Todo

I rated this as a start, though it needs a lot of work. The intro makes little sense and needs more info, the infobox needs a picture and is incorrect (Babs peaked at 155), a longer storm history is needed, and the impact should be greatly expanded upon.

The Unisys best track data showed Babs at Category 5 status. Storm05 15:48, 7 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

That was operationally. In the official JTWC best track, Babs was a Category 4, albeit a strong one. Still more info is needed in the impact. Hurricanehink 16:36, 7 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Picture

I found two picture links. Which should go in the infobox? This, which shows it near its Philippine landfall, or this, which shows a broader view and a more impressive structure? I personally vote for #2. Hurricanehink 19:22, 12 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well, why not both? Hurricanehink (talk) 21:41, 19 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Just dropping a note that I'll be reviewing this article later today. Cyclonebiskit (talk) 20:44, 7 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

All in all an excellent article as always, Hink. I have one minor issue to bring up. In the "Elsewhere" section, toward the end of the first paragraph, you seem to have been cut-off in the middle of a thought and forgot to finish it: Beaches were wh Precipitation from the typhoon fell over three days.... Once this is addressed I'll be happy to pass the article.
