This one slipped through the cracks. I finished working on it several months ago. All of the articles are up to par, and no additional articles can be made. --♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 15:33, 16 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Support. Assuming it's comprehensive (I'm no expert), the other criteria appear to be reached. Headings are consistent with other related GTs, as well as internally Jimfbleak - talk to me? 11:09, 20 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • The TS has 2 fatalities and 200k damages. Does it really deserve an article? Nergaal (talk) 01:11, 21 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    • I think given the amount of information, it warrants having a sub-article. Otherwise, it'd be too long for the main article. --♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 22:32, 21 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
      • Wikipedia is not paper, in theory there is no limit to the number of articles WPTC can have. Long story short, it's a modern-era landfalling tropical storm that did real impact and is of decent quality. Any storm that meets this is IMO article worthy, and Cyprien does. The bottom line is that there is enough content to have a storm article and that is arguable the most important thing. Either way, I support this wonderful topic.

Comment - im not sure that Cyprien is up to scratch since the main report from RSMC La Reunion on the cyclone is not included and contains a full life history on the cyclone.Jason Rees (talk) 16:40, 26 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Good call. I didn't work on Cyprien at all (it was written and was a GA before I started the topic). I'll make sure it gets added. --♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 16:42, 26 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Alright, it's added now. --♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 22:31, 27 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Im still not sure that it is up to scratch and think that there are a few more things added like more impact from the Google news archives, who named it and data from the advisories issued by both the JTWC and Reunion that are archived in the document marked severe here.Jason Rees (talk) 23:25, 27 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I think it is. I added the naming per the season summary, but the the MH is comprehensive enough for GA, and none of the Google news sources have any additional info. --♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 04:24, 28 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Agreed, it's enough to meet the criteria. Not the best GA ever, but no the worst. YE Pacific Hurricane
