Good Day, I will be your reviewer for this article. I will gladly do the review. I hope we can get through the process easy and stress free. AmericanAir88 (talk) 15:42, 30 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Opening Comments

[edit]

Typhoon Joe was a major storm that impacted Asia. Major storms need to be thorough and well written in the encyclopedia. The article is in good shape and has the correct information about the Typhoon. The sentence structure is a bit weird, but I will touch on that in the "Issues area"

The way I do my reviews is have my opening comments/issues stated and then have you talk. I do my reviews like a trial. Your and this article are the priority in this review. After that opening discussion we go to the cleanup phase(if issues are stated). Hopefully the issues will be resolved and after that we get to the Review chart. Once the chart is complete, I will give you your result and any closing comments. I hope we can work together to get through this. AmericanAir88 (talk) 00:11, 1 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Normally I do this at the bottom, but now seems like a good time to thank you for the review.

Issues

[edit]
  • I have noticed that many sentences are awkward. You are using the correct words, but the starts are correct. Done

Example: "An area of disturbed weather formed near the Caroline Islands on July 14. Shower activity gradually became better organized, and two days later, the system was believed to have obtained tropical depression status."

Try to improve the start of sentences such as instead of "An Area of disturbed weather formed near the Caroline Islands on July 14" do "On July 14, an area of disturbed weather formed near the Caroline Islands. AmericanAir88 (talk) 23:59, 30 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

On that particular instance, your suggestion doesn't work since the previous sentence ends with "on July 1980." But I simplified down the Mh part of the lead/MH a bit, although to be honest, I haven't written anything on wiki (thank 3 hurricanes) in a few weeks, so I'm not sure how much better it is.

Good Job Improving the sentence structure, it is much better to read AmericanAir88 (talk) 14:48, 1 October 2017
  • In the Preparations and Impact Section, the Hong Kong section did great but the Vietnam section could use slight expansion. At the end of the Hong Kong section, the article indicates that Hong Kong was damaged slightly while in the Vietnam section you end the article with just explaining damage to an area. Try to make the Vietnam section more like the Hong Kong section if you can. It would help give more information of the damage. AmericanAir88 (talk) 14:57, 1 October 2017 (UTC) Done[reply]

End of Issues. I will now complete the chart.
