Former collaborations

Hurricane Mitch

Closed 23:15, 2 May 2006 (UTC) - see improvements

This storm is almost a household name, yet the article has needs a lot of work, especially on particulars in the impact section. In two weeks, this could be made FA. Hurricanehink 14:26, 22 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

OK, I am currently working on this as my personal TCCF. If anyone wants to join, feel free to. Hurricanehink 04:09, 30 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Selected to start collaboration. Tito xd^{(?!? - help us)} 22:08, 16 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Cyclone Tracy

Closed 23:16, 16 May 2006 (UTC) - see improvements

To prevent it from reaching FARC. Tito xd^{(?!? - help us)} 01:36, 24 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This should be next for your reasons. Hurricanehink 02:46, 17 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Given that Mitch was finished (by me), let's put this as the next one. Hurricanehink 15:20, 1 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Selected as next collaboration - Tito xd^{(?!? - help us)} 23:16, 2 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hurricane Camille

Closed 23:16, 30 May 2006 (UTC) - see improvements

I don't know if a overhaul is necessary. It seems pretty complete, with the exception of the impact section. Hurricanehink 02:46, 17 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This article needs lots of work. The impact section is way too short even after being tripled in size. — jdorje (talk) 05:30, 17 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Whoa, thanks for saying that. I thought the article was better, but it needs a lot! Outside of the impact section, it needs an aftermath section and better placement for the trivia section. OK, this should be a TCCOTF fairly soon (but after Tracy). Hurricanehink 00:51, 18 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Selected as next collaboration - Icelandic Hurricane #12 23:16, 16 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hurricane Gilbert

Closed 23:17, 12 June 2006 (UTC) - see improvements

Sounds good. The impact section is lacking a lot, and there's no aftermath section at all. Hurricanehink 02:46, 17 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Selected as next collaboration - Icelandic Hurricane #12_(talk) 23:16, 30 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hurricane Fifi

Failed collaborations

1997-98 Southern Hemisphere tropical cyclone season

We're not doing seasons yet for FA's, so not really sure the usefulness of this. I vote no due to lack of notability and need for a complete overhaul. Hurricanehink 15:48, 21 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This has been split into sub-articles and is now a disambiguation page. Therefore, I am speedily failing this collaboration. Should the project be revived later, the split articles can be nominated individually. --Core desat 22:41, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Tropical cyclone

Linked from everywhere, lots of detail, but it needs a bit of love to be a FA, something it easily can be... Tito xd^{(?!? - help us)} 21:42, 23 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Good idea. It would require a big overhaul, but that would be a cool task for the TCCOTF. Hurricanehink 02:46, 17 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

A good core article before moving on to specific storms. Should be in a print version, but needs improvement.--Here T oHelp 03:03, 14 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It made FA. Should we remove it from this list? Thegreatdr (talk) 19:41, 2 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I wonder if anyone is even using the list... Titoxd^{(?!? - cool stuff)} 20:24, 2 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Great Hurricane of 1938

I'm reading a book on it. I've been taking notes on important things. From what is in the book, the article can be greatly expanded, especially in the aftermath and impact section. By the way, the book is A wind to shake the world by Everett S. Allen, incase if anybody wants to buy it. Icelandic Hurricane #12 22:41, 9 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hurricane Andrew

I don't know if a complete overhaul is needed. It just needs some love in the impact section and aftermath section. Maybe eventually, if no one does it before then, but not yet. Hurricanehink 02:46, 17 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hurricane Keith

Not that notable, this should be far down the list. — jdorje (talk) 19:48, 21 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

1929 Florida Hurricane

No need, IMO. The hurricane is not notable enough, and there's hundreds of articles that should be redone before this one. In addition, there simply isn't a lot of information. Hurricanehink 15:48, 21 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No need. — jdorje (talk) 19:47, 21 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hurricane Frances

Yes but eventually. Like Rita, it might be too soon to have a lot of information on it. There's probably a ton on the storm from the month when it made landfall, but probably not much afterwards. Hurricanehink 21:11, 24 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hurricane Rita

I vote yes, but eventually. Other, more important storms, deserve articles better than this. Plus, it's too soon to have accurate details on everything. Hurricanehink 21:11, 24 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hurricane Kathleen (1976)

I think the article is pretty good considering the location and time period. It's just that there's not much information from a storm in 1976 in the Eastern Pacific ocean, so I'll have to vote no. Hurricanehink 21:11, 24 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hurricane Linda

Possible no. The storm had little impact on land. That might make it hard. Hurricanehink 21:11, 24 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

South Atlantic tropical cyclone

Similar to Mediterranean tropical cyclones, the subject is obscure without much information out there. However, it couldn't hurt, so I vote eventually. Hurricanehink 15:48, 21 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Not that notable; should be far down the list. — jdorje (talk) 19:49, 21 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'd like this one to get some attention... rare, possibly linked to larger factors, theres some troves of info out there (I've been looking) -M^ask

23:01, 11 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Mediterranean tropical cyclones

No need, IMO. The subject is obscure, and few people would probably look at it. In addition, there's little information out there. Hurricanehink 02:46, 17 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hurricane Nora (1997)

Big no. The article is great! Hurricanehink 21:11, 24 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It's an FA, no way should we be picking at them when there are so so many start class articles.--Nilfanion (talk) 20:38, 4 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Third big no. Tito xd^{(?!? - help us)} 20:40, 4 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hurricane Katrina

I vote no. It was already the Wikipedia Collorabation of the Week. No need to do it again. Hurricanehink 21:11, 24 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

~~I'd say that another round would be useful. Support. Tito xd^{(?!? - help us)} 23:11, 2 May 2006 (UTC)~~[reply]

It's featured, so forget that. Tito xd^(?!?) 06:42, 25 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Let us not involve FAs in collaborations until all articles are featured, or until there is some sort of "Complete-class" article class. --Gray Porpoise 00:46, 29 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
