This article seems to lack information about several aspects such as preparations made besides watches and warnings, the impact in Haiti, and aftermath, the last of which there is no section for. Also, the impact section overall looks small for a storm this deadly. —JCMLuis 💬 18:30, 6 November 2024 (UTC)

- I'd argue that a storm from 1988 likely is not going to be as complete as we may like for a modern system of this strength and deadliness. But I'm willing to help keep this at a GA if you could detail some more specific places in the prose where it's lacking. JayTee⛈️ 21:32, 21 November 2024 (UTC)
- @JayTee32:
- In the meteorological history section, the third and fourth paragraph is almost entirely supported by one source, being HURDAT, but it failed to verify the text. It could probably be supported by this report or this website.
- The preparations section is missing information about evacuations and measures taken by national governments, and maybe assistance from organizations or other nations before the storm's arrival (if there was any). There is a report on Haiti by USAID that I think contains a lot of useful information.
- Some details in the impact section can be extended with the report on the season by Miles B. Lawrence and Joseph M. Pelissier, though I'm not sure which.
- There's likely a lot of newspapers that can bring up information that could be put into the article, such as this newspaper.
- And of course, there is no section for the aftermath, which I think the Haiti report could be useful in.

- @JCMLuis Thank you for the checklist, and thank God for Thanksgiving break. I'll get to work on this next week. JayTee⛈️ 00:56, 22 November 2024 (UTC)
