The Hurricane Herald: 15th Anniversary Edition!

The Hurricane Herald is the semi-regular newsletter of WikiProject Tropical Cyclones. The newsletter aims to provide in summary the recent activities and developments of the WikiProject, in addition to global tropical cyclone activity. The Hurricane Herald has been running since its first edition ran on June 4, 2006. If you wish to receive or discontinue subscription to this newsletter, please visit the mailing list. This issue of The Hurricane Herald covers all project related events from September 1–October 5, 2020, which is the 15th anniversary of the WPTC. This edition's editors and authors are ChessEric, Chicdat, Destroyeraa, Hurricanehink, and our member of the month, SMB99thx!

Please visit this page and bookmark any suggestions of interest to you. This will help improve the newsletter and other cyclone-related articles. Past editions can be viewed here.

WikiProject Tropical Cyclones: News & Developments

  • As we rapidly approach the 15th anniversary of the project in October, it has been proposed that the Climate, Tropical cyclone, Severe Weather, and Non-tropical storms (defunct) wikiprojects get merged into a single project: Wikipedia:WikiProject Weather. This brand new project would remove the overlap that exists between the projects. It provide us with a better opportunity to develop articles such as List of named storms A, B, C etc; Tornadoes in Fiji/New Zealand/Hawaii/etc; Floods in 2018, 2019, 2020, etc; Floods in Bangladesh/United States/Egypt, etc; Weather of 1997, 1998, 2020, etc; Weather in Tokelau/South Africa/France, etc; Hurricanes in the United States, Hurricanes in Mexico, Typhoons in China, etc. The discussion continues on WP:Meteorology. Any feedback would be appreciated.
  • A series of goals, proposed for the project, has been extended to January 2021 for Wikipedia's 20th anniversary. Goals include tropical cyclone effects for every location around the world, merging the hundreds of disambiguation articles into lists by letter, and featured topics for every list of retired names. Some of these goals might take another 20 years to complete, but some are doable with some sustained effort.
  • Hurricane Noah announced an initiative to get a featured topic for the year of 2018 with complete subtopics. The Eastern Pacific portion is very close to achieving a featured topic, and the Atlantic and North Indian Ocean are around a B-class average. The Western Pacific, Southern Hemisphere, and the global article for 2018 need your help! A lot of work is needed to get those three items up to par. For more information on which articles need specifically, please check out the project talk page. Getting a featured topic for an entire year would be an impressive feat for our project.

Storm of the month and other tropical activity for September (and the first 5 days of October)


Ianos, was a Mediterranean tropical-like cyclone, also known as a Medicane. The Mediterranean isn't officially a tropical cyclone basin, so there aren't any official intensity estimates for the storm. The system originated from a low pressure area north of Libya, and it developed organized convection while moving northeastward. On September 18, Ianos struck the Greek island of Cephalonia, and later moved across the Greek mainland. The World Meteorological Organization mentioned the medicane and its similarities to tropical cyclones. Although these medicanes are unofficial, Wikipedia covers them like other tropical cyclones, using the same reliable sources and news articles to document the event. As Ianos was created, not many users edited it, as coverage of tropical cyclones and storms outside of main development regions are, unfortunately, low. However, as Ianos was nominated and posted at ITN, a current news section on the main page, many users outside of the TC WikiProject began working on it, As these storms are becoming more common and better documented, these storms may be officially classified in the future.


  • Atlantic - September 2020 was the most active month on record in the Atlantic, with nine named storms forming, as well as Omar which formed on August 31 but was named a day later. Nana formed on September 1, rapidly intensifying into a minimal hurricane before making landfall in Belize. After a short lull in activity, Paulette and Rene both formed on the 7th, with the former intensifying into a strong Category 1 hurricane while making a rare landfall in Bermuda. The latter made landfall in the Cabo Verde Islands, causing minimal damage. Hurricane Sally had its origins over the Bahamas, and after stalling in the northern Gulf of Mexico it struck Alabama, dropping 36 in (910 mm) of rainfall on the Florida Panhandle; Sally left about $7 billion in damage and three deaths. On September 12, Hurricane Teddy formed, which grew into a powerful Category 4 hurricane, and later swept across Atlantic Canada. Near the Cape Verde Islands, Tropical Storm Vicky formed on September 14, and four days later, Wilfred formed in the same region. Tropical Storm Beta formed in the Gulf of Mexico on September 17 ahead of Wilfred and Alpha, and later brought heavy rainfall to Texas. A day later, Subtropical Storm Alpha formed near the coast of Portugal, marking only the second time that the Atlantic hurricane naming list was exhausted, thus requiring the usage of the Greek alphabet for names. Beta also formed, though before both Wilfred and Alpha. Beta would hit Texas and Louisiana with moderate flooding and kill one person.
  • Eastern Pacific - The month of September was not very active. Tropical Storm Julio formed from the mid-level circulation of Hurricane Nana in the Atlantic on September 4; however it stayed weak due to wind shear. In mid-September, tropical storms Karina and Lowell formed southwest of Mexico and were short-lived tropical storms. Toward the end of the month, Marie formed, becoming a hurricane on the last day of the month. Marie would later go on to be the current strongest storm of the EPAC season this year.
  • Western Pacific - The month of September was fairly active for the WPAC. Typhoon Maysak, which formed in late August, struck South Korea early in the month, followed days later by Typhoon Haishen, which became the season's first super typhoon. Haishen caused 4 fatalities and heavy damage in the Korean Peninsula. Later, Tropical Storm Noul formed on September 17, hitting Vietnam and causing 6 deaths and $30.4 million in damage. Later, Dolphin formed on the 19th, brushing Japan. Toward the end of the month, Tropical Storm Kujira formed northeast of the Marianas Islands.

Member of the month (edition) – SMB99thx


SMB99thx first joined Wikipedia in 2013, but didn't officially join the WPTC until August 2020. Since then, they have been a prolific contributor, helping with less visible pages such as project talk pages, or splitting older season articles in the North Indian Ocean and the Western Pacific. They are a such a tireless contributor and kind user, who appreciates others' contributions while being humble about their own. It was SMB99thx who gave barnstars along with kind and encouraging messages to countless other WPTC contributors and Wikipedians. SMB99thx also worked on several lists, including area affects lists, various drafts, and List of named storms (T). We'll take that T and say TY to SMB99thx for all of their contributions, and wish them luck at college.

Today's Featured Article/List

There is currently one featured article candidate:

How WikiProject Tropical cyclones should move forward by SMB99thx


As we have seen in the month of August and September, there is a surge of new articles. Most of these new articles are season/decade articles and Pacific typhoon articles, and most of these articles are assessed by me as either Start-class or Stub-class. These articles I believe would have been rejected by WikiProject Tropical cyclones in the earlier years (especially 2008-2012) - and these reflected the changes in WikiProject Tropical cyclones after I joined in July 2020.

In order to counteract that surge of Start-class and Stub-class articles in recent months, I have been closely working on the Article requests page (used to be a primary contributor of the surge that happened in August and September), trying to make this recently-extended WikiProject 15th anniversary as some serious effort as well as revamping WikiProject To-Do (and completing some, but not all tasks) - and the results of my work on these three projects led into the explosive growth of the WikiProject Tropical cyclones draftspace (I tried to prevent this by publishing the half-finished drafts into mainspace (which is primarily composed of C-class with some speck of Start-class articles coming out of it, and these are the ones that aren't as obviously unfinished like Draft:Effects of Hurricane Dorian on the Mainland United States), and made several drafts on articles that are not considered notable like Draft:Hurricane Barbara (2019) into redirects or deleted, but there is less kinds of these drafts now) as well as discovery of several drafts that isn't done by this point or are not listed as part of WikiProject Tropical cyclones. These drafts are later linked to the Article requests page. I don't my work is done yet, and in order to consider that effectively done, I need to get these drafts done and submitted as C-class or higher.

However, there is a personal problem I had to face in order to getting this work done when I'm still new to WikiProject Tropical cyclones. Article creation from drafts are not my strength. I create articles mostly from splits, not from drafts. As such, I consider article creation from drafts to be personally tedious work. As our 15th anniversary gets near, it appears that things are changing. As the draft space exploded, it appears fellow WikiProject Tropical cyclones are helping me out in getting these drafts complete, especially Destroyeraa (helping me out in deciding which drafts can pass the cut), ChessEric (working on Draft:Tropical Storm Noul (2020)), Robloxsupersuperhappyface (for developing current events articles, alongside ChessEric), I like hurricanes (Tropical cyclone lists), Chicdat (for the work on Tropical cyclones in 2002 and will probably work on others), Janm 7 (for working on Tropical cyclones in 2011 and 2003), and Iseriously (for useful season summaries, and this isn't a WPTC member!). I also began to frequently give out barnstars to these hard-working people like Jason Rees and Hurricanehink.

These events led me to believe that, if this WikiProject has to move forward then in my opinion this WikiProject should:

  • Take things in Article requests, WikiProject To-Do, WikiProject Tropical cyclones draftspace and WPTC 15th anniversary push (now extended into January 15th, 2021) seriously. I have seen some serious neglect from this area of the WikiProject and i believe this really held back the growth of this WikiProject. In my opinion, this WikiProject could have been easily have 2500 articles, or even 3000 articles by now if that area of WikiProject had been taken seriously. Even possibly, this WikiProject could have a lot more quality articles than it is today!
  • Frequently collaborate with each other. Don't bite the newcomers, but help them! They will help you.
  • If someone wants to take a break, e.g. Yellow Evan, let them be. Don't hurt their feelings! (i.e. moving their userspace drafts into mainspace) If you are hurting their feelings, then this could discourage future collaborations that could advance this WikiProject.

Thanks for reading this opinion piece! And happy 15th anniversary, WikiProject Tropical cyclones!

OPINION PIECE - by ChessEric


Accuracy has always been one of my biggest sticking points when it comes to editing on Wikipedia. When I came here back in April, my first edit was a revert of misinformation on the 2020 Easter tornado outbreak article. Of course, I understand that as a relatively new user, I still have a lot to learn and I don't profess to know everything, even after I started several large projects that I will probably be working on for quite some time. My first tornado outbreak pages used only the Tornado History Projects which, while generally good for tornado tracks, provides no damage info and if weren't for editors like CapeVerdeWave and Halls4521, my "breakthrough" articles would be so incomplete. However, I've been able to research more and more and find ways to complete these articles and that has carried over into the tropical cyclone projects as well. My thing has always been is that If I can't find a source for it, then it's not true. I will continue to follow that motto and hope that others will do the same.

Current assessment table


Assessments valid as of this printing. Depending on when you may be viewing this newsletter, the table may be outdated. See here for the latest, most up to date statistics.
As of this issue, there are 157 featured articles and 70 featured lists. There are 135 A-class articles, and 1,002 good articles. There are only 65 B-class articles, perhaps because because most articles of that quality already passed a GA review. There are 369 C-class articles, 736 start-class articles, and 151 stub-class articles, with 31 lists, and 8 current articles. These figures mean that slightly more than half of the project is rated a GA or better. Typhoon Warren was the 1000th GA in the project.

Comparison of 2005 and 2020


WikiProject Tropical cyclones was founded on October 5, 2005. By that time, Wikipedia had its small share of articles, including the four deadly hurricanes that hit the United States in 2004. The hyperactive 2005 Atlantic hurricane season featured a series of deadly and historic hurricanes, the first of which was Hurricane Dennis. This is how the article looked on 10/5/05. It might not look like much, considering how much larger storm articles tend to be today. However, Dennis quickly became a featured article by February 2006. Its quality showed a marked improvement from the 2004 hurricanes. For comparison, here is what Hurricane Charley looked like on 10/5/05, with barely any references, no preparations, no aftermath, and one sentence worth of impact for a location with $1 billion in damage.

The busy 2005 season featured Hurricane Katrina, and in the aftermath of the storm, dozens of articles related to the hurricane were created. Some still exist, such as Katrina refrigerator, Memorial Medical Center and Hurricane Katrina, and Effect of Hurricane Katrina on the Louisiana Superdome. I don't know if those hyper-specific articles would be created today, and many of these old articles are still of low quality. On the other hand, one of the most notable changes since 2005 is the improvement in articles throughout Wikipedia, both new and old. Every Atlantic season from 1945 to 2019 is a good article, and all but 31 seasons since 1851 are a good article. More impressive is how much other basins around the world have improved. As of June 2006 (the oldest date for our assessment tables), the EPAC only had articles back to 1970, WPAC with yearly articles back to 1945 (with a rump article for everything beforehand - there are now decade articles going back to 1850), and the NIO only had one yearly season article (with five-yearly articles going back to 1980, and one rump article for everything beforehand), with only six storm articles. There are now yearly NIO articles going back to 1960. Also as of June 2006, all SHEM storms were put into yearly articles going back to 1995, with three five-yearly articles going back to 1980, and then one article for everything beforehand. The SHEM is now split into its three sub-basins (plus a distinct article for SATL storms), with yearly articles back to 1970. There are also now yearly articles for tropical cyclones back to 2009.

15 years might not feel like much, or for some of you it's an entire lifetime. Users should be reminded of eventualism, in work will improve over time, especially with sustained editor attention. There are now over 2,000 articles in the project, versus less than 500 15 years ago, or 1000 10 years ago, or 1500 13 years ago. The project's growth hasn't always been even, but it has trended toward inclusion, with hundreds of articles that are the best resources available anywhere on a given storm/season/topic. As Mother Nature throws us hyperactive seasons, it will be difficult, but not impossible, to keep up with the annual cycle of tropical cyclone activity, so the world can remain informed of these swirling furies.

Project Goals & Progress


The following is the current progress on the three milestone goals set by the WikiProject as of this publishing. They can be found, updated, at the main WikiProject page.


Your GA nomination of Hurricane Barry (2019)

Hi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've begun reviewing the article Hurricane Barry (2019) you nominated for GA-status according to the criteria. This process may take up to 7 days. Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you might have during this period. Message delivered by Legobot, on behalf of Hurricane Noah -- Hurricane Noah (talk) 02:42, 6 October 2020 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

The Tireless Contributor Barnstar
I just wanted to thank you for all of the hard work that you do on Wikipedia. I also wanted to congratulate you on getting your first GA for Hurricane Dolores. Keep up the great work, and keep making those great edits! P.S, thanks for helping me write an opinion piece :-) Weatherman27 (talk) 07:50, 7 October 2020 (UTC)
@Weatherman27: Thank you so much!! ~ Destroyeraa🌀 11:48, 7 October 2020 (UTC)
No problem, you deserve it! @Destroyeraa: Weatherman27 (talk) 14:23, 7 October 2020 (UTC)

I have nominated that article for FL. I hesitated at nominating this article for FL because it might need to go above and beyond what we have on the article, but ultimately I'm going for it anyway. SMB99thx my edits 08:29, 8 October 2020 (UTC)

Hey man! Careful with the personal attacks!..............Okay sorry. I couldn't help it. Thankfully, it wasn't me who wrote up that Louisiana section! LOL!ChessEric (talk · contribs) 18:33, 8 October 2020 (UTC)

@ChessEric: LOL! At least I didn't SHOUT. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 18:50, 8 October 2020 (UTC)
@ChessEric: But another one did get me pissed off. IPs keep wanting to change it to a C5. Maybe IP hopping? ~ Destroyeraa🌀 18:52, 8 October 2020 (UTC)

Destroyer as hello there I am a new user I need help with Hurricane Delta page. Why was I also blocked from the during that page. I was only trying to stop a vandal IP and they blocked me too. 71.172.254.114 (talk) 20:30, 9 October 2020 (UTC)

Hello there, and I appreciate your efforts to fight vandalism. I see that Hurricane Delta has been semi-protected, because of the IP that was hopping addresses to vandalize the page. Therefore, an admin had to protect the page so that IP couldn’t vandalize again. Unfortunately, this means that all IPs cannot edit the page. It’s a security measure, and I am sorry that you are unable to edit Delta. However, the protection expires in three days and you could always Create an account. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 20:58, 9 October 2020 (UTC)


Your GA nomination of Hurricane Barry (2019)

The article Hurricane Barry (2019) you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold . The article is close to meeting the good article criteria, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needing to be addressed. If these are fixed within 7 days, the article will pass; otherwise it may fail. See Talk:Hurricane Barry (2019) for issues which need to be addressed. Message delivered by Legobot, on behalf of Hurricane Noah -- Hurricane Noah (talk) 03:41, 12 October 2020 (UTC)

Hi there, I saw you made the above page. I wondered why you felt there needed to be that page, considering there were only two storms named Larry, and we already have List of named storms (L) (which will eventually be the home for all of these short SIA pages). ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 16:00, 12 October 2020 (UTC)

@Hurricanehink: I was thinking since there are two Larry’s, and another one will presumably be added next year, I’d created the DAB for it. I guess I’ll redirect. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 00:42, 13 October 2020 (UTC)
I didn't mean to pressure or seem like I was attacking. I'm just trying to steer these sorts of articles to the letter list (which are gradually getting done, we're up to 11 now! ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 01:03, 13 October 2020 (UTC)

Promoting an article

Hi Destroyeraa,

Currently I am working on improving Hurricane Fran. My goal is to get it to GA class. How would I get it from Start-Class to C-Class? Who assesses that? I'm a Wikipedia noob so I decided to ask a more experienced user.

Thanks. CodingCyclone (talk) 21:40, 12 October 2020 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) Let another user do it. It's considered against policy to assess articles you have created or substantially improved. @Destroyeraa: Maybe you should do this task. 🐔 Chicdat Bawk to me! 10:22, 13 October 2020 (UTC)
@CodingCyclone: After taking a look at Fran, I see that it needs a lot of work. First, make sure that everything is sourced, since there are many [citation needed] tags in the article. Next, check if all of the sources work (ex. dead links). If that is done, I should be able to review it for B-class. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 12:34, 13 October 2020 (UTC)
@Destroyeraa: I'll get to that and let you know when it is done. Thanks! CodingCyclone (talk) 22:23, 13 October 2020 (UTC)

Regarding Cumbre Vieja...

Announcing here that for exam reasons, I won't be finishing the GA edits until afternoon tomorrow (CET). Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 08:18, 13 October 2020 (UTC)

A cup of coffee for you!

For your work on Tropical Cyclone pages and keeping Wikipedia safe ARegularWisconsinite (talk) 18:46, 13 October 2020 (UTC)
@ARegularWisconsinite: Thank you, and welcome to WikiProject Tropical cyclones!! ~ Destroyeraa🌀 18:49, 13 October 2020 (UTC)
@Destroyeraa: Thank you! I've been tracking Hurricanes all my life and I recently discovered WPTC after taking a long break from Wikipedia. Although there is not much for me to make updates on it still is fun reading all the articles the fantastic members at WPTC put together. ARegularWisconsinite (talk) 18:54, 13 October 2020 (UTC)

ITN recognition for 2020 French Open

On 15 October 2020, In the news was updated with an item that involved the article 2020 French Open, which you updated. If you know of another recently created or updated article suitable for inclusion in ITN, please suggest it on the candidates page. Stephen 04:23, 15 October 2020 (UTC)

Wikipedia Commons Uploads

Hello, I have a question for you. There is a file on wikimedia Commons that is a loop of Tropical Storm Nangka. However, the loop has changed several times and hasn’t stayed on the one I preferred. Am I allowed to re-upload an old version of that loop. The file is called File:2020 CIMSS 18W Nangka visible infrared map.GIF on Wikimedia Commons and I want to re-upload the 03:34, 14 October 2020 version. Would I be allowed to do that? Robloxsupersuperhappyface (talk) 18:13, 15 October 2020 (UTC)

@Robloxsupersuperhappyface: I tried reverting, but the revert failed. I suggest you upload a new file with a different name.~ Destroyeraa🌀 18:18, 15 October 2020 (UTC)

Ok thank you Robloxsupersuperhappyface (talk) 19:49, 15 October 2020 (UTC)

TS Arthur merge

Just saying... but this was a bit much: [1], [2]. When you cited WP:POINT, I hope you were not implying the whole discussion. - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 20:51, 15 October 2020 (UTC)

@Knowledgekid87: Most people were against merging, and the discussion was getting too long. At the end, I felt like it talked more about other non-related stuff than about Arthur and merging. So, I closed it. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 21:08, 15 October 2020 (UTC)
I mean its fine if you just close things like that as "no consensus", I have no objection with a settled issue. - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 21:09, 15 October 2020 (UTC)

ITN recognition for End SARS

On 15 October 2020, In the news was updated with an item that involved the article End SARS, which you nominated. If you know of another recently created or updated article suitable for inclusion in ITN, please suggest it on the candidates page. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 22:06, 15 October 2020 (UTC)

A brownie for you!

For your continued work on tropical cyclones, and for giving me guidelines on how to improve Hurricane Fran. You deserve this! CodingCyclone (talk) 02:25, 16 October 2020 (UTC)
@CodingCyclone: Thank you so much! I'm happy to help you with Fran. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 11:55, 16 October 2020 (UTC)

TS Gamma (2020)

I saw this edition for reference to the 7th death:

  • Why not put the reference instead of putting a remark?
  • Secondly, this article is ambiguous, it says 6 death at one place ("...tormenta Gamma, cuyas lluvias en los últimos días dejaron al menos seis decesos y miles de damnificados.") and 7 at another ("Gamma se degradó a depresión tropical el lunes luego de dejar siete muertos en el sureste de México."). You should find a better confirmation for the number.

A barnstar for y🌀u!

The 2020 Atlantic hurricane season barnstar
For writing Cristobal, Hanna, Isaias, Laura, and more, I award you this barnstar, which is an unofficial one because I couldn't find a 2020 AHS barnstar. 🐔 Chicdat Bawk to me! 11:15, 16 October 2020 (UTC)
@Chicdat: Thank you so much! I really appreciate it.~ Destroyeraa🌀 11:54, 16 October 2020 (UTC)

DYK for Hurricane Dolores (2015)

On 19 October 2020, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Hurricane Dolores (2015), which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that thunderstorms from Hurricane Dolores flooded the Moreno Valley, destroyed a bridge on Interstate 10, and killed a man by lightning strike? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Hurricane Dolores (2015). You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Hurricane Dolores (2015)), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

You made a lot of proposals in most WPTC articles, and most of your proposals got accepted. SMB99thx my edits 00:36, 20 October 2020 (UTC)

Added an image - Hyderabad Floods

Hi Destroyeraa, I've added an image to the aftermath section of the floods. Can you find a better caption or use of the image? I can't seem to find one! Cheers, ƬheStrikeΣagle 01:16, 20 October 2020 (UTC)

@Strike Eagle: Thank you! The image looks great! ~ Destroyeraa🌀 17:52, 20 October 2020 (UTC)

ITN recognition for 2020 Hyderabad floods

On 20 October 2020, In the news was updated with an item that involved the article 2020 Hyderabad floods, which you nominated. If you know of another recently created or updated article suitable for inclusion in ITN, please suggest it on the candidates page. SpencerT•C 17:50, 20 October 2020 (UTC)

2020 PTS "Other systems"

Just because something is unsourced does not mean you take off the entire TD paragraph, when a TD really did develop there. Put the sources yourself instead of removing. If you keep on doing this, then this may be reported as vandalism. Typhoon2013 (talk) 19:25, 20 October 2020 (UTC)

@Typhoon2013: Not vandalism. It's unsourced, and can be removed or challenged per WP:UNSOURCED. Any material lacking a reliable source directly supporting it may be removed and should not be restored without an inline citation to a reliable source Thank you. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 19:30, 20 October 2020 (UTC)
Revert. I will be adding the source shortly after this. Unlucky. :) Typhoon2013 (talk) 19:32, 20 October 2020 (UTC)
Ok @Typhoon2013:. Also, I don't appreciate threats on my talk page such as If you keep on doing this, then this may be reported as vandalism. If it's not vandalism, you can't report it as vandalism. Cheers. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 19:34, 20 October 2020 (UTC)
And moreover I have removed the recent "Oct 7 Vietnam TD" you written in that section because that system was never classified as a TD officially. Typhoon2013 (talk) 19:39, 20 October 2020 (UTC)
@Typhoon2013: Well off-wiki Jason Rees and I were discussing the disturbance (Invest 91W). The Vietnamese met center classified it as a TD according to some user on Commons. However it was unsourced and I see your rational of removing it. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 19:42, 20 October 2020 (UTC)
But as a second note, after further research into this system, I have reverted it back, not just because it made impacts but it was considered to have an unofficial Vietnam designation. Hopefully it will be revealed as a TD by the JMA as soon as the "best track" for the weather maps will be revealed sometime next year. Typhoon2013 (talk) 19:44, 20 October 2020 (UTC)
OK, thank you. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 00:36, 21 October 2020 (UTC)
@Typhoon2013: If I may interject, that ENTIRE article and EVERY article before that and ALL the articles that are related to them need a citation revamp plus some sort of rewrite. As active as the Pacific typhoon season is, there should be no reason why this issue is so ramped amongst these articles. This part of the project needs a SERIOUS clean-up for EVERY article that is related to that basin. Getting a little sick and tired of going over there and finding half of the article with cn tags, verification templates, and other miscellaneous issues.ChessEric (talk · contribs) 20:18, 22 October 2020 (UTC)
@ChessEric: The biggest problem with the PTS is the lack of editors willing to work on it.Jason Rees (talk) 20:52, 22 October 2020 (UTC)
@ChessEric: Yea the PTS articles are rather messy and around the place in terms of the information and its structure where one article like the 2015 one has too much information whilst the 2019 one have a problem with citations as one editor who archived all the sources for the storms have stopped editing. Ever since college I found it hard to juggle the work here and studies, so the only edits I can actually do in wikipedia are rather minor edits, sadly. This includes other storm articles as well. I see a lot of edits from relatively new users and I understand that, but they must also learn on the citations they use and which sources to use as recently there have been users who claim that a system has dissipated when in reality it has been active per the JMA (Chan-hom and currently 20W).

Epsilon Article

Hello, it’s fine what happened with the sourcing, we all have that moment. However, I’m here to say I think we’re ready to submit the draft and make Epsilon an article since it’s now our 4th major hurricane of the 2020 Atlantic hurricane season. What do you think? Robloxsupersuperhappyface (talk) 21:17, 21 October 2020 (UTC)

@Robloxsupersuperhappyface: Well...people on the season talk page don't want Epsilon to be an article just yet. Maybe tomorrow, when it actually impacts Bermuda. I'm honestly surprised it's a major, we usually don't see hurricanes near Bermuda RI like this, and it might be a record. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 21:31, 21 October 2020 (UTC)

True, it’s also the second most powerful Greek storm on record (behind Delta of course). Howverem we still have to listen to their “WP:TooSon”, “WP:OtherStuff”, “WP:Crystal Ball”, instead of publishing this draft. LOL Robloxsupersuperhappyface (talk) 22:04, 21 October 2020 (UTC)

Welp the tropical storm force winds just hit Bermuda this morning. Ready to submit it? Robloxsupersuperhappyface (talk) 12:35, 22 October 2020 (UTC)

@Robloxsupersuperhappyface: Well, the people on the season talk page would probably want (multiple) sources to confirm that Bermuda is being impacted by TS-force winds. Also, the remnants are forecast to hit Ireland and the UK as a powerful extratropical cyclones with pressures in the 920s (wow), which will result in severe impacts. The article can also include the remnant's impact, such as Hurricane Gonzalo and Tropical Storm Laura (2008). ~ Destroyeraa🌀 12:47, 22 October 2020 (UTC)

The NHC expects it to hit Iceland as an extratropical cyclone so that could also be bad. Robloxsupersuperhappyface (talk) 15:29, 22 October 2020 (UTC)

I'm getting to the point where if its not ready now, when will it be?ChessEric (talk · contribs) 20:19, 22 October 2020 (UTC)

No. There's only one Hurricane Zeta, @CyclonicStormYutu:. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 18:22, 28 October 2020 (UTC)

Actually the dab page if it's even needed should be moved to list of storms named Zeta. This is because I'm sure if I dug deep enough I could find another system called Zeta that isnt a TC. Jason Rees (talk) 18:32, 28 October 2020 (UTC)

Vandalism.

Hello. On the 2020 Atlantic hurricane season article, I saw that you removed an inappropriate website link from the main page.

Talk pages

FYI as annoying as it is a user is allowed to remove messages from their talkpage, even if it is a warning. Also are you able to come on IRC? Jason Rees (talk) 23:49, 4 November 2020 (UTC)

@Jason Rees: Unfortunately, Ive been pretty stressed, and I cannot come on IRC. If you have anything to discuss with me, please do it on my talk page. Thanks! Also, this user in question has indirectly reported me and a few other users to an admin. Seems like a case of WP:CIR. Anyway, this may be my last content dispute here. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 00:45, 5 November 2020 (UTC)
What I wanted to talk to you about on IRC isn't overly important and can wait until you are able to come on. Take a step back, have several deep breaths, find something else to work on and come back when you are ready. Unfortunately, I am also involved in a content dispute at the moment and have been stressed by goign back into lockdown. I am aware that the user has indirectly reported you and myself to an admin, as he left me a talkpage message asking me to intervene, which i am about to do.Jason Rees (talk) 01:30, 5 November 2020 (UTC)
@Jason Rees: I saw that the user reported me and possibly ChessEric and TornadoLGS. Also, he asked you to intervene, but you cannot block me since you’re not an admin :). Anyway, I am taking a two day family vacation tomorrow and Friday, so my edits will be greatly diminished. I’m sorry for the rather rude “yes?” on the DM. I wish you the best of luck during lockdown. Stay safe. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 02:42, 5 November 2020 (UTC)

Can we take into consideration recon data that suggests Laura being 155 mph?

@Doge1941: No, because the NHC did not explicitly say it.~ Destroyeraa🌀 19:07, 9 November 2020 (UTC)

But we can't just rely on the NHC Doge1941 (talk) 19:08, 9 November 2020 (UTC)

@Doge1941: No, the NHC is the official center for storms in the Atlantic; relying on your interpretation is original research. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 19:09, 9 November 2020 (UTC)

So do we really need to wait for Post Analysis to upgrade it? Doge1941 (talk) 19:13, 9 November 2020 (UTC)

@Doge1941: No, from Force Thirteen's history, they make things up without hard evidence to support it. So thus, they are unreliable and not used on Wikipedia. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 19:37, 9 November 2020 (UTC)

@TornadoLGS: Thank you. However, next time you make an edit Doge1941, please explain it so people don't think it's vandalism. Adding blatantly false info into an article. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 19:44, 9 November 2020 (UTC)

Um excuse me, Force Thirteen is a wide community and they use Recon Data, ASCAT, and get opinions from other meteorologists out there like on Twitter. They listen to Alex Boreham, Levi Covan, Jim Cantore, and Reed Timmer to support their values. Doge1941 (talk) 19:43, 9 November 2020 (UTC)

@Doge1941: The problem with Force thirteen is that they are an opinionated Youtube channel. They make false claims about the strength of systems based on their opinions, and not necessarily always from reliable sources like NOAA or the NHC. Simply put, Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and we can only have the most trust worthy and reliable information, and Force thirteen is not one of of those sources. 🌀Weatherman27🏈 (chat with me!). 21:15, 9 November 2020 (UTC)

Comment just seeing this conversation @Doge1941: Force Thirteen is fake news: they don't always use official sources like NHC or NOAA and literally anyone can create a Youtube channel and post fake news acting "official". And while you may like Force Thirteen, it does not belong on Wikipedia, an encyclopedia for proven facts. Also, please be patient and wait for Eta to dissipate and you will see the peak intensity image of Eta in the infobox, but the other one is related to landfall, not peak intensity. Also please see WP:OR, as original research doesn't belong on Wikipedia and a good source must be given for any information. ~Qwerty325 (talk) 22:30, 9 November 2020

And also Force Thirteen know's that they aren't an official organization but I promise you they do use NHC and NOAA for their own analysis. Doge1941 (talk) 13:14, 10 November 2020 (UTC)

Interpreting Aircraft recon on your own @Doge1941: is considered original research, and will be reverted. Can you please read original research before we continue? Thanks. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 13:34, 10 November 2020 (UTC)
Also, I said over and over again and my fellow editors said it too that Force Thirteen shall not and will not be used on Wikipedia. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 13:34, 10 November 2020 (UTC)
Even if they use the NHC and Noaa to get their information, they still aren't a valid source for information as they spin what they think the true intensity of systems should be. Not reliable at all. 🌀Weatherman27🏈 (chat with me!). 15:31, 10 November 2020 (UTC)
@TornadoLGS: I'm happy that Doge1941 has promised to and stopped adding F13 material into WP. However, I got arguably pissed at this user bugging me on my talk page to change my "toxicity" to F13, which I won't change because F13 is notorious for spreading fake news and making graphic like it's official. SMB's response was a bit harsh tbh, though I was mad that Doge1941 isn't taking in the information after 3 or 4 users told him why Force 13 should not be used. However, Doge1941 thanks for not putting F13 info into articles anymore. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 13:37, 11 November 2020 (UTC)
Yeah, that's understandable. At the very least, F13 could avoid making graphics nearly identical to NWS graphics. Brings me back to the arguments and edit wars we had over TWC's naming of winter storms. I agree that Doge was out of line to keep pestering you and took this too personally. I mostly took issue with SMB's comments since Doge had not made any further comments after being reverted and warned. TornadoLGS (talk) 21:24, 11 November 2020 (UTC)
This is honestly why I faded away from using F13. I loved their TC maps of tropical cyclones and their TC updates, but when they started using their own analysis, my interest in them quickly diminished. I like OFFICIAL facts and they are not using them. I'm not going to go as far as saying they are fake news, but I am going to say that they should have never transitioned from official analysis to their own.ChessEric (talk · contribs) 22:46, 11 November 2020 (UTC)

I mean they can't make a cone that goes all over the place so that's why its similar to the NHC cone and they use that cone in Updates as well and mention that it is the NHC cone. Doge1941 (talk) 16:10, 12 November 2020 (UTC)

Even if they use a cone similar to the NHC, they are still not a reliable source, and their information will not be used. 🌀Weatherman27🏈 (chat with me!). 18:22, 12 November 2020 (UTC)
@Doge1941: See this: Wikipedia:WikiProject_Tropical_cyclones/Force_Thirteen. Qwerty325 (talk) 18:41, 12 November 2020 (UTC)
FYI the NHC cone and all associated software is copyright, and slapping the F13 logo on it is still a minor copyright infringement (see Twitter thread for more info). Alright Doge1941, for more inquiries please contact the Teahouse, since my talk page is not a F13 inquiries page. Or, you can go to Wikipedia Talk:WikiProject Tropical cyclones/Force Thirteen and ask any questions there. Thank you! And kudos to @Qwerty325 and Weatherman27: for answering inquiries. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 19:03, 12 November 2020 (UTC)
Glad that I could help. 🌀Weatherman27🏈 (chat with me!). 19:08, 12 November 2020 (UTC)
@Doge1941: The use of a cone is not the issue. The issue, in this case, is that the formatting of the graphic is nearly identical to that of NHC products in every aspect (layout, symbology, etc). Other outlets at least use different styles. This seems deliberately deceptive to try to make it seem like F13 is as authoritative and reliable as the NHC. You seem a dedicated fan of Force Thirteen, but this isn't the place to argue for it. I think it's time to drop the stick. TornadoLGS (talk) 19:17, 12 November 2020 (UTC)

Wait did Eta really surpass Wilma for eye size? Doge1941 (talk) 17:13, 18 November 2020 (UTC)

Hi, no rush, I know we’re all busy, but it says on the talk page: “I will do this review Monday”. This was posted on Sunday. If you can’t do, don’t worry in the slightest. I’m very easy. Needforspeed888 (talk) 17:41, 11 November 2020 (UTC)

Alert from WikiProject Current Events

Hello. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Current events format is currently being updated. However, one new change is a section for "Current discussions". The Portal:Current events has debates all the time to determine if things are notable for the portal (international news) or if they are better suited for a place like 2020 in the United States. In the past, small 'edit wars' have taken place between editors over topics. This new section on the WikiProject is a new place where editors can discuss between each other and have an easy access to 'outside opinion' from other participates. Members in the Current Event WikiProject are welcome to invite other editors that have disagreements to start the discussion on the WikiProject. (Unlike RFC's, discussions about topics would be about 1 week or whenever the topic is no longer relevant from the WikiProject).

Thank you for reading and thank you for participating in the Current Event WikiProject! (Current Event WikiProject Coordinator) Elijahandskip (talk) 19:11, 11 November 2020 (UTC)

2020 Atlantic hurricane season ASAP

@Jasper Deng: Got an editor who probably isn't part of the project making a ton of weird edits. I think they have good intentions, but the grammar is being destroyed. Help!ChessEric (talk · contribs) 22:18, 11 November 2020 (UTC)

Why does this guy keep changing images?

I have seen peak intensity images change on hurricanes: Michael, Maria, and Delta Many of these images were not taken at peak intensity, and some show the storm visually disorganized and not at its peak intensity as I said. All of these specific hurricane image changes were as a result of this user, please tell me why. — Preceding unsigned comment added by GoldGamer32 (talkcontribs) 23:29, 11 November 2020 (UTC)

@GoldGamer32: Hi, GoldGamer32. I do not quite get what you mean. Please elaborate. Thanks. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 00:26, 12 November 2020 (UTC)

@Destroyeraa Well, I have been looking on Hurricane Delta history and also as of today Hurricane Maria's peak intensity image was changed under your name Delta's was changed many time to an image that was not the peak as I tracked Delta throughout its entire lifetime — Preceding unsigned comment added by GoldGamer32 (talkcontribs) 00:29, 12 November 2020 (UTC)

@GoldGamer32: I see. Delta's image was based on a discussion that happened around a month ago (closed now, no consensus - include both images). Delta was a sloppy system its whole life, and the image that is currently on the article is arguably when it looked best on visible satellite imagery (not infrared or microwave). Maria's image was changed because now it is closer to peak (September 20 vs September 19; Maria's peak was on 9/20). I never changed Michael.
Also, please sign your comments (~~~~). Thanks.~ Destroyeraa🌀 00:38, 12 November 2020 (UTC)

Tropical Storm Theta

I realized that Theta was still active after I made my edit to the 2020 Atlantic Hurricane Season page. I got Theta confused with Eta, which was the one that made landfall in Florida. Next up appears to be Iota later today. Moline1 (talk) 15:15, 13 November 2020 (UTC)

@Moline1: It's ok. Mistakes happen. However, since the NHC has not named the storm Iota yet, we cannot say Tropical Storm Iota is active. Rather, it's TD 31 that's active. Hope that helps! Cheers. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 15:16, 13 November 2020 (UTC)
Yeah, I jumped the gun a bit there. Interested to see if this season goes into December or not a la 2005.

Humberto 95

Regarding this edit, the result of the discussion was to merge the article, not just to delink the article. Are you intending to actually merge the article in? It doesn't mean you have to include everything, but be sure to include anything noteworthy that was in the (good) article. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 17:01, 17 November 2020 (UTC)

Also regarding Linfa, and reverting when another user restored Linfa's article, you should talk with other users directly, rather than through edit summary. Just a head's up for how to make a more conducive working atmosphere. Don't make me trout you for making careless edits :P ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 20:55, 17 November 2020 (UTC)

Autopatrolled granted

Hi Destroyeraa, I just wanted to let you know that I have added the "autopatrolled" permission to your account, as you have created numerous, valid articles. This feature will have no effect on your editing, and is simply intended to reduce the workload on new page patrollers. For more information on the autopatrolled right, see Wikipedia:Autopatrolled. However, you should consider adding relevant wikiproject talk-page templates, stub-tags and categories to new articles that you create if you aren't already in the habit of doing so, since your articles will no longer be systematically checked by other editors (User:Evad37/rater and User:SD0001/StubSorter.js are useful scripts which can help). Feel free to leave me a message if you have any questions. Happy editing! ~Swarm~ {sting} 01:08, 19 November 2020 (UTC)

Hey there. Would you want to collab on fixing up Arthur 2020? Or, if you think it's good enough for GAN, would you mind nominating it? The article needs to be a GA by December 10th to retain the off-season tropical cyclones as a good topic. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 15:23, 19 November 2020 (UTC)

Hi, You recently moved Cyclone Nivar to Draft:Cyclone Nivar. The article now has a Meteorological history. Is it ready now or does it need more expansion? SUN EYE 1 14:34, 24 November 2020 (UTC)

@Suneye1: Usually, a storm should have at least a sentence about its impact to have an article. The impact determines if a storm is notable or not. Nivar is probably already impacting land. See if you can find some impact info and I will be happy to move it back. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 14:43, 24 November 2020 (UTC)

Thanks for keeping the BLP off of Grace Randolph and stopping the edit war! While rollback should never be used to edit war and you shouldn't used it for a first revert, it would come in handy at the end of the edit war.

Hi Destroyeraa. Please use {{uw-multipleIPs}} when warning them. They are cycling many addresses to the point we have to assume bad faith. Yes, it is a Level 4 warning, but it is used in egregious cases like this. --HurricaneTracker495 (talk) 01:36, 29 November 2020 (UTC)

go to a range calculator and see. But putting {{uw-agf-sock}} won’t do a think. Maybe, try a normal unsourced warning and pretend the other IPs don’t exist. HurricaneTracker495 (talk) 13:13, 29 November 2020 (UTC)

They do get passionate about topics as it pertains to tropical storms, but, nothing in their interactions leads me to think that the community would be better off without them.
    Reading these messages, I am sure there is a learning experience here, and if this is something that can be facilitated rather than asking them head out of the platform (e.g. blocked indefinitely), that would be much appreciated. I truly think they have a lot to add by way of value to the community. Again, pardon my intrusion into this process. Ktin (talk) 04:09, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
  • @Jason Rees and Ktin: Thanks for your comments. While I may be willing to accept the (ordinarily implausible) explanation that Hurricane Kevin (talk · contribs) is Destroyeraa's brother based on this disclosure, there is also the issue of the HurricaneJanor (talk · contribs) account, which Destroyeraa acknowledged was his above and which he has used in rather disruptive ways: see here. In my experience, masquerading as multiple people with multiple accounts is often considered a rather serious breach of community trust that a single apology may not be able to win back immediately (i.e. without some time off with no sockpuppetry or block evasion; see WP:SO). I do appreciate, however, that Destroyeraa has been relatively forthcoming about their abuse of multiple accounts. I will defer to another administrator regarding whether to accept this unblock request, and as a checkuser I will not prevent this checkuser block from being lifted if another administrator thinks it's okay to do so. Mz7 (talk) 04:23, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
    Mz7, thanks much for this note and more importantly for your consideration. Agree with all that you say. If this can be converted into a learning experience for the Editor, rather than an infinite block and banishment, I truly believe that their value add to this community (based on my interactions with them) will definitely be net positive. Thanks again. Much appreciated. Ktin (talk) 04:37, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
    There is no question that sockpuppetry took place here, nor that the sockpuppetry was at least somewhat deceptive. However, I consider this to be "dumb sockpuppetry" and so am willing to be lenient here. Here's what I am going to do:
    • Unblock Hurricane Kevin, since I'm apparently willing to AGF that that account belongs to Destroyeraa's brother.
    • Convert Destroyeraa's indef to a week-long block for sockpuppetry.
    Destroyeraa, let me be perfectly clear here: whether or not this was "just for fun," you have lost a good deal of trust from the community by using multiple accounts like this. You can expect increased scrutiny of everything you do in the future. If I were you, I would be on my best behavior from here on out. GeneralNotability (talk) 04:50, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
    (edit conflict) For additional context on why I personally am a bit hesitant: although he eventually acknowledged his mistakes, Destroyeraa had to have known he was not being honest when he initially wrote However, I have not used my accounts for disrupting Wikipedia or doing vandalism. Additionally, some of his behavior with his sockpuppet account also seemed quite deceptive: In one instance, he voted one way in an RfC, then used his sock to vote a different way. In another instance, he edit warred with his own sock. This behavior seems manipulative to me and raises questions about the editor's good faith, although I do acknowledge he seems to have contributed some quality content work. Again, I said I would defer to another administrator here—given that several editors have vouched for this editor, and they are now acknowledging their mistakes, I am happy to go along with GeneralNotability's solution that I edit-conflicted with for this comment. Mz7 (talk) 04:56, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
    @Mz7 and GeneralNotability: I accept the terms, but may I ask that you remove the sock tag from the doppelgängers, as they have no edits and will not be used for editing. Thank you for giving me a second chance. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 05:02, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
    Destroyeraa, is Desstrroyerraa your doppelgänger account, too? Please disclose. SMB99thx my edits! 13:20, 29 November 2020 (UTC)

After reviewing some of the evidence, I would strongly suggest that @Destroyeraa:'a permissions get looked at. For example: should he have the extended page mover right or the autopatrolled right. Jason Rees (talk) 06:08, 29 November 2020 (UTC)

Jason Rees, I prefer autopatrolled right for Destroyeraa. He can make more better articles than me (mostly stubs). SMB99thx my edits! 13:17, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
?!? I'm ashamed of you, Destroyeraa, for socking. First, I understand that you were new when you first created the 'Hurricane Janor' account, but why did you need to continue using it, even when you were "experienced"? Of course, maybe I shouldn't have been telling you this since I've edited while logged out, but... really?!? 🐔 Chicdat Bawk to me! 11:10, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
As someone who occasionally edits logged out(I don't always notice), Chicdat's case was a tah bit more egregious as they vandalized. Still, that is WP: GHBH, not quite as bad as actually abusing multiple accounts to evade scrutiny. --HurricaneTracker495 (talk) 14:01, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
Yes. I vandalized while logged out. Three times, my third blocked by edit filters. Haven't done it since. A checkuser found out and revoked rollback and page mover. Destroyeraa's case: Created a new account and edited on it. 79 times, none vandalism, but all violating WP:SOCK. Did it until a checkuser found out and will revoke rollback and page mover. 🐔 Chicdat  Bawk to me! 13:13, 1 December 2020 (UTC)
@Chicdat: A Checkuser did not revoke page mover. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 13:33, 1 December 2020 (UTC)
Oh, I thought it required trust. Sockpuppetry doesn't seem like a sign of trust. 🐔 Chicdat  Bawk to me! 13:34, 1 December 2020 (UTC)
@Chicdat: Vandalism isn't either but at least you weren't blocked. Anyway, an admin called me a productive non-LTA editor who is expected to return shortly once they've realised their mistake. on WP:TEA...~ Destroyeraa🌀 13:38, 1 December 2020 (UTC)
From what he said, he wants editing for fun in that account. Wikipedia is not a place for seeking fun. SMB99thx my edits! 13:25, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
Here's even more evidence of abuse of multiple accounts. Here, Destroyeraa signed in on his other account to edit that. But the most egregious case was likely this, where he violated WP: GHBH.
I went to bed at 03:05 UTC, so apologize for my comment at 13:13 UTC at this page, did not realize editor was blocked. (Because my parents make me go to bed around ten). --HurricaneTracker495 (talk) 14:12, 29 November 2020 (UTC)

Don't do sockpuppetry again, ok :)

Destroyeraa,

Don't make me lose faith in you. I think your fight against Wyatt2049 led you into breaking point - as I don't know that you have gone into sockpuppetry recently. You have been helpful to me when I was getting myself established after the troubles against the IP editor from Kyrgyzstan. For that, I'm very grateful to you. I'm also going to note that I have found a possible impersonation of you in DestroyAA, which of course isn't targeted against you but probably going to tarnish your name when you're editing in military history articles. You'll need to take some break and recognize that Wikipedia is a serious enterprise (not for fun) - and hope that Wyatt2049 menace is over. SMB99thx my edits! 12:40, 29 November 2020 (UTC)

Wow. I thank Hurricanehink mobile for the trout. I understand the doppolendangers, but HurricaneJanor was definitely an attempt to evade scrutiny. See this, where HurricaneJanor nominated a merge and then Destroyeraa opposed it. In my opinoin, that's egregious enough for a 2 week block at minimum. You made me lose a lot of my faith in you. Please rebuild up a credible track record, when you can come back to editing. --HurricaneTracker495 (talk) 13:50, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
HurricaneTracker495, If he manages to do a successful comeback, I would like to consider Destroyeraa for MoTM. I have a proposal that for the Hurricane Herald's Issue XLIV, it should have been co-MoTM instead of one due to Robloxsupersuperhappyface and Destroyeraa's contributions are equal to me, but due to this issue, I'm going to withdraw my proposal soon tomorrow (Indonesian time) and make Robloxsupersuperhappyface the unanimous MoTM. SMB99thx my edits! 13:58, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
@SMB99thx: whats MoTM? --HurricaneTracker495 (talk) 13:59, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
HurricaneTracker495, Member of The Month. In WikiProject Tropical cyclones, we award MoTM in each new issue of Hurricane Herald, which is released in each two months. (This is why Member of the Month is actually Member of the Edition, or Member of the Month (edition)). You can know more with Hurricanehink. SMB99thx my edits! 14:03, 29 November 2020 (UTC)

To keep you calm, I'll give you a bubble tea.

I'll think you need a break for a while. As an Asian, I'll give you a bubble tea. I never tasted a bubble tea in my life, but my mother would try to give me this. SMB99thx my edits! 13:51, 29 November 2020 (UTC)

Trouted

Whack!

You've been whacked with a wet trout.

Don't take this too seriously. Someone just wants to let you know that you did something silly.

You have been trouted for sockpuppetry. I’d like to start a mentoring program when you're unblocked. Hurricanehink mobile (talk) 13:27, 29 November 2020 (UTC)

Hurricanehink mobile, I agree with this. SMB99thx my edits! 13:29, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
I also agree. 🐔 Chicdat Bawk to me! 13:30, 29 November 2020 (UTC)

Have you given any thought toward mentoring? ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 16:56, 30 November 2020 (UTC)

I see you editing elsewhere on your user page. I just wanted to offer mentoring again for when you get unblocked. I've been on Wikipedia for 15 years, so I can help you with your wiki goals. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 19:45, 30 November 2020 (UTC)
@Hurricanehink: Sorry, did not see the first comment (Have you given any thought toward mentoring?. Yes, any help will be greatly appreciated! I plan to get Hurricane Chris (2018) to FA status after I'm unblocked and Hurricane Beryl to GA. I've rewritten Beryl's article in a sandbox on another wiki. I promise to never do any more sockpuppetry after my unblock. Thank you for your support. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 19:55, 30 November 2020 (UTC)
Those are good goals. As for Chris, it would be pretty short for an FA. Bermuda Weather Service has rainfall totals from the storm. Be sure to use NCDC - NC, for example. See if you can find any more about beach closures, rescues, or anything else about high waves/rip currents. That appears to be the main source of impact. The article barely seems long enough to exist, so be sure to do more research so it's not merged in the future. Also, since the MH is the main part of the article, the writing needs to be stronger, and everything needs to be laid out in order. For example - "Despite being located over the Gulf Stream, the depression's convection diminished greatly" - why? Also, you mention the cold front pulling it southward, as well as weak steering currents. Were these one in the same? "This caused the storm to acquire annular characteristics, which slowly strengthening." - be sure to explain jargon and why it's important. Also, make sure the grammar all makes sense. I suggest reading through the article a few times while you're waiting to be unblocked, as there are a few sentences like this with sub-par grammar. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 21:15, 30 November 2020 (UTC)
@Hurricanehink: Thanks. Yep, I read through the article and found some grammar errors. It happens when you type a wall of text. NCDC has things like 45 rescues happened on this, day, 20 the next, 45 the day after that, etc. I think that’s a bit boring. Anyway, I’ll look into the archives for Canada and Bermuda. I am also working on Beryl, and I rewrote the mt history a bit today on a sandbox I have on another wiki. Thanks for the tips. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 23:34, 30 November 2020 (UTC)
Also, for the Zeta thing, clarify that dissipation is when the whole system dissipates, not just the tropical portion of the cyclone. For example, Paulette became post on September 23, and the extra tropical portion of the system dissipated on September 30 Thegreatdr reckons it continued into October and dissipated October 4? ~ Destroyeraa🌀 00:00, 1 December 2020 (UTC)

@Hurricanehink: Sorry to ping you again, but if you want to monitor my progress on Chris, here it is. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 18:59, 1 December 2020 (UTC)

You have been squished by a whale for: per above. I think Wyatt2049 got in your head. You'll need to keep your cool. Don't lose this fight against your own demons! SMB99thx my edits! 14:01, 29 November 2020 (UTC)

@SMB99thx: Thanks for the encouragement. There isn't much evidence that the impersonators were Wyatt. Also, it's easy to get killed by whales squishing you so...a virtual picture of a whale is nice! ~ Destroyeraa🌀 17:12, 1 December 2020 (UTC)

Question

What's your opinion on Force Thirteen's Fans?(Nioni1234 (talk) 16:15, 29 November 2020 (UTC))

If Force Thirteen fans stay away from using Force Thirteen as the source, they will be fine and eventually will be welcomed. SMB99thx my edits! 22:39, 1 December 2020 (UTC)

Sorry guys

@Ktin, Hurricanehink, Jason Rees, Chicdat, HurricaneTracker495, and SMB99thx: and others: I am truly sorry for sockpuppeting. I acted foolishly and made actions that breached policy. I know I just lost a large amount of trust. I am ashamed of my actions, and I promise to never use multiple accounts again.

I am very grateful for Jason Rees and Ktin for putting their thoughts and giving me a second chance. I thank SMB99thx for giving me bubble tea. I also appreciate the trouts. I especially thank the admins who reduced my block to one week. After that time, I will return to mainly creating content and improving articles rather than participating in discussions (with the exception of ITN) or trying to gain rights. I fully understand if some of my rights (PCR, ext Page mover) are revoked.

SMB99thx, please remove me from your opinion piece along with deleting mine. Also, I kindly ask that everyone please refrain from posting new messages on my talk page or pinging me.

I am very thankful of the community giving me a second chance. Please forgive my actions. Have a wonderful week. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 17:40, 29 November 2020 (UTC)

I want to give a final comment. I don’t think PCR should be removed. The one right that should is PMV, because it requires trust. I also oppose any rollback requests made within the next few months. HurricaneTracker495 (talk) 17:47, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
@HurricaneTracker495: I will refrain myself from administrative areas for 6 months unless clear vandalism happens. I wanted to return to finish up my GA work. Also, sorry SMB99thx for the long wait with Typhoon Ruby. Thank you. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 17:50, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
Yeah, sorry I can’t help either. HurricaneTracker495 (talk) 17:51, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
@HurricaneTracker495: You can delete the barnstar with the edit summary (given by sock of Destroyeraa). Thanks. Also, don't make me MotM for the next 6 months. Make someone such as HT495 or Hurricane Noah or Jason Rees or the 110 other active WPTC users out there MotM.~ Destroyeraa🌀 17:59, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
@Destroyeraa: I thought you were better off than falling for this crap. :-( --CyclonicallyDeranged (talk) 19:22, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
@CyclonicallyDeranged: I'm sorry. It won't happen again. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 19:26, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
Destroyeraa, I'm hoping that you follow your promises in this section. I have promised myself to always logged in to this account (to edit Wikipedia) and never editing logged out when I was fighting against Bedriczwaleta LTA (in later June) to make sure that he doesn't find my location, and I followed my promise since that incident. I'm lucky enough that he doesn't know where I am. If he knows where I am, I'm probably going to be dead in 2021. SMB99thx my edits! 22:38, 29 November 2020 (UTC)

Destroyeraa, I was extremely disappointed when I found out that you were blocked, especially for something like sock-puppetry. You are always so kind, helpful, you make great articles and edits, and you are always a hard worker who always has made the correct decisions. As others said above, I hope you follow these promises that you have made, as nothing would hurt the WPTC and Wikipedia community more than a repeat of your foolish actions. I forgive your actions, but I will say this, you need to learn from this. Things will only get better as long as you don't do the same thing twice. Use this block, and embarrassment, to move yourself forward. Use it as a learning experience. I played a lot of American football during Junior high- College, and one of the biggest things you can learn, is that you will never become better, without setbacks, like the block in your case. Use this to your advantage, and now that you have learned a lesson the hard way, help others not make the same mistake, as well as know for next time, if you want to try and create a separate account, remember what happened this time, and make the right choice, instead of getting yourself into more trouble. I had to learn from my mistakes during sports, and I know you can too. There is a valuable lesson that I hoped you have learned and I hope you come off this block better that ever, as a refreshed, and renewed person. You are a great editor Destroyeraa, and Everyone makes mistakes, that's why there is erasers on pencils. That is all I have to say. Cheers, ~ 🌀Weatherman27🏈 (Chat|Edits|sandbox) 00:30, 30 November 2020 (UTC)

@Weatherman27: Thank you for your kind words of encouragement. You are a great editor and football player. Yes, this was a lesson for me and I foolishly had to learn it the hard way. I will not let my following editors down after I come back. Thanks again. Cheers, ~ Destroyeraa🌀 00:35, 30 November 2020 (UTC)
I am happy to hear that you won't let them down. The football part above was meant more of how I played that sport and had to learn from my mistakes, the hard way, and that I came back better than before, as I hope you do too. Sorry if there was any confusion, but thank you for the compliments! I have lots of faith in you, and I want you to know that your edits and articles are valued, even if you have had a setback. You will get through this. Things will get better, even if it takes time. Thanks, -🌀Weatherman27🏈 (Chat|Edits|sandbox) 00:43, 30 November 2020 (UTC)
After you get unblocked, Destroyeraa, I have a suggestion for you. Have your talk page indefinitely semiprotected (from those terrible Wyatt2049 LTAs who like to vandalize it*) and create a User talk:Destroyeraa/Nonconfirmed for the good-faith IPs and registered editors. 🐔 Chicdat Bawk to me! 11:37, 30 November 2020 (UTC)

* This wikiproject needs a break from LTAs like Sidow...., Iphonehurricane95, and, of course, Wyatt himself.

A cup of coffee for you!

I was shocked to see that you were blocked recently, I think you need a break from Wikipedia. I think you've lost a lot of peoples trust in WPTC and I hope you work to regain that trust. ARegularWisconsinite🌀 (talk) 21:28, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
@ARegularWisconsinite: Thank you for the coffee. I know it is shocking for many, and I am sorry. I am ashamed of my sockpuppetry. I thank you all for your support and acceptance. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 22:20, 29 November 2020 (UTC)

advice

Destroyeraa,

You disappointed a lot of people today. When I saw your talk page around 8:45 AM today(13:45 UTC), I was shocked and disappointed, as were many people.

You have caused us to lose some faith in you. HurricaneJanor was a WP: BADSOCK, and I no longer support rollback.

But Destroyeraa, as we head into a new day in UTC, I want you to rethink your entire wiki experience from January. I have faith in you(but not as much)to make correct decisions.

You also had a close call with PMV, I requested it be removed but it was declined.

Best, HurricaneTracker495 (talk) 00:00, 30 November 2020 (UTC)

@HurricaneTracker495: Wow, at 0000 UTC. Thanks for the advice, and I will be sure to follow it. I know and regret that I disappointed many people. I am grateful for the support of my fellow editors such as you. Have a great night (new day UTC but I have to sleep in a few hours!). FYI, SMB99THX was MotM last month. You should be it along with Chicdat or another user next month. Best, ~ Destroyeraa🌀 00:25, 30 November 2020 (UTC)
Maybe, but yesterday you edited at 05:02 UTC(12:02 AM EST)! --HurricaneTracker495 (talk) 00:43, 30 November 2020 (UTC)
Oh yes, it was Saturday and I wasn’t very sleepy. That last edit was the one as I went to sleep HurricaneTracker495. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 00:50, 30 November 2020 (UTC)
I always go to bed at around 03:00 UTC(which is 10PM), my parents make me. My friend was up(either stayed up or woke up)at 3:50 AM, which is 08:50 UTC . Looking at your timecard, that was the latest edit until the 11s(I alsostarted in the 11s but keep in mind that was the 6s and yours was the 7s as I joined right as DST ended. On my IP I made an edit at 10:41 UTC which is 6:41 AM. [4]. Also, at 04:01 UTC, which was 11:01 PM, you made an edit. Also, your edit at 12:02 AM was technically Sunday. Anyway, it's now 01:00 UTC(or 8:00 PM, realistically). --HurricaneTracker495 (talk) 01:00, 30 November 2020 (UTC)
