[edit]@Hurricanehink: Is there any reason you gave this start? I mean I'm sure there are the typical problems seen throughout my articles at this stage but still; I historically have used C as a placeholder for articles in this stage. YE Pacific Hurricane 16:34, 17 May 2019 (UTC)
- There were still signs it wasn't a complete article, such as Y total Damage X. Also, Farm production was reduced by 400 million catties in Fujian. I also noticed no USD. Also, the lead was one long block of text. I only graded it at a quick glance. Do you want me to re-assess? ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 17:18, 17 May 2019 (UTC)
- Yeah, this is stuff I normally deal with right prior to a GAN because I find it the most tedious :P YE Pacific Hurricane 05:04, 18 May 2019 (UTC)

The tenth tropical cyclone, sixth tropical storm, and third typhoon of the 1990 Pacific typhoon season
Could you please provide a citation for this? NoahTalk 21:17, 4 August 2020 (UTC)- I was not able to provide citations for "
The tenth tropical cyclone, sixth tropical storm, and third typhoon of the 1990 Pacific typhoon season
". Instead, i changed it intoThe fourth and the last tropical cyclone to be formed in June of the 1990 Pacific typhoon season
and provided the citations neccessary. Done. SMB99thx my edits 06:52, 25 September 2020 (UTC)

over 30,000 individuals lost their homes. Overall, damage in the country was minor, however.
These two statements seem to contradict one another. NoahTalk 21:17, 4 August 2020 (UTC)Satellite imagery
Link. NoahTalk 21:17, 4 August 2020 (UTC)Satellite imagery showed signs of a well-defined low-level circulation and the disturbance was situated along with persistent convection, and the disturbance was situated in a weakly divergent environment aloft
The last two items could be combined or this could be split into two sentences. NoahTalk 21:17, 4 August 2020 (UTC)of winds of 65 km/h (40 mph)
I would change this to "of 65 km/h (40 mph) winds to improve flow a bit. Also, I assume these were 10-minute sustained as well, correct? NoahTalk 21:17, 4 August 2020 (UTC)- I don't think it's a 10-minute sustained winds, since that came from JTWC report (JTWC uses 1-minute sustained winds). Otherwise, Done SMB99thx my edits 07:41, 21 September 2020 (UTC)
Tracking west-northwestward around another upper-level anticyclone that was previously following Typhoon Ofelia and later merged with a subtropical ridge to its north,[1] Percy was upgraded into a severe tropical storm on June 22 by the JMA.
Oh boy, that's a lot there. NoahTalk 21:17, 4 August 2020 (UTC)- It took me long to guess the problem, but regardless i'm Done with this. SMB99thx my edits 13:20, 25 September 2020 (UTC)
with the JMA subsequently following suit
When did this occur? NoahTalk 21:17, 4 August 2020 (UTC)- I believe it's in the morning of June 24. Done SMB99thx my edits 07:02, 21 September 2020 (UTC)
JTWC estimated that Ofelia obtained
- Fixed. Done
Dvorak estimate of T6.0
Could you list the wind values for that estimate? NoahTalk 21:17, 4 August 2020 (UTC)Airline services in and out Yap was halted
--> were halted. NoahTalk 21:17, 4 August 2020 (UTC)the island of Ngulu Atoll bore the brought

", and television and radio lines were downed." NoahTalk 21:17, 4 August 2020 (UTC)- Radio does not have lines. Television might if it is cable. · · · Peter Southwood (talk): 03:57, 5 August 2020 (UTC)
- I changed the order of the words per JTWC ATCR, and with the input of Peter that there is no radio lines. as such,
Meanwhile, radio towers, power lines and television lines were downed as several houses lost their roofs.
This is definitely Done either way. SMB99thx my edits 06:52, 25 September 2020 (UTC)
The typhoon posed enough of a threat to Hong Kong to warrant a No 1. hurricane signal briefly, but such signal was dropped within 24 hours, Nevertheless, a pressure of 999.4 mbar (29.51 inHg) was measured at the Hong Kong Royal Observatory early on June 29
This should be split after 24 hours. NoahTalk 21:17, 4 August 2020 (UTC)- Of course. Done SMB99thx my edits 06:51, 21 September 2020 (UTC)
High Island received 245 mm (9.6 in)
I would add "of rain" after the measurement. NoahTalk 21:17, 4 August 2020 (UTC)- Okay. I did that... Done SMB99thx my edits 06:51, 21 September 2020 (UTC)
Two other villages lost power. Eleven people also had to be evacuated.
Could these possibly be merged? NoahTalk 21:17, 4 August 2020 (UTC)slight damage was to crops.
Delete "was". NoahTalk 21:17, 4 August 2020 (UTC)Floodwaters there was up to 2 m (6.6 ft) deep
Should be "were". NoahTalk 21:17, 4 August 2020 (UTC)- I would round the acres measurement to the nearest thousand. Additionally, there is one instance where acres comes before the hectares. NoahTalk 21:17, 4 August 2020 (UTC)
tens of millions in damage
USD? NoahTalk 21:17, 4 August 2020 (UTC)Roughly 20 km (12 mi) of a highway were destroyed.
This is similar to the farmland sentences before it. It should be "was destroyed". NoahTalk 21:17, 4 August 2020 (UTC)Damage was estimated at US$28 million
Is there an estimate in Yuan? NoahTalk 21:17, 4 August 2020 (UTC)- Using current estimate it's about 190 million yuan. Not sure about 1990 USD to yuan. I'll added it under the note that this is adjusted for inflation. Done. SMB99thx my edits 07:04, 21 September 2020 (UTC)
- @Yellow Evan: Just a reminder since it has been two weeks since the review was posted. NoahTalk 16:35, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
- Hurricane Noah, Since YE is not as active as it was in 2017, i'll take the initiative instead. I want to work on Typhoon Faxai, but it was snubbed for GA so i believe i'll take on at this one. I will revisit Typhoon Faxai once it's done. SMB99thx my edits 06:23, 21 September 2020 (UTC)
- I don't think it's time to revisit Typhoon Faxai, it's a huge work. MarioJump83! 02:12, 14 April 2021 (UTC)
