Copy Editing Discussion edit

Could someone please clarify what the issues are in this article? I honestly saw very few spelling/grammatical mistakes when I checked it. I didn't really see much in terms of flow problems either.

New picture edit

Can someone please get a new picture for this storm? The picture is seriously outdated. Brandontracker (talk) 1:50, 11 August 2018 (UTC)

im on it. Derpdadoodle (talk) 19:47, 11 August 2018 (UTC)Reply

Subsections: Yes or no? edit

I have noticed we are fighting about whether or not to have subsections in this article. Personally, with the way the merge proposal is going, we should have subsections as it appears the article will be kept. The subsections will allow editors to write and readers to read about a specific aspect of the meteorological history. It would work much better with them.

No, for now since the storm is still active. Wait til it dies when this can better be discussed. YE Pacific Hurricane 19:25, 12 August 2018 (UTC)Reply

Since Hector is now dead, we should start discussing subsections again. I personally think that it would make it better. Grammarguruguy (talk) 16:20, 17 August 2018 (UTC)Reply

I could see there being 4 subsections right now. One for the formation, EPAC/strengthening, CPAC/peak intensity, and WPAC/decline and dissipation. FigfiresSend me a message! 22:26, 17 August 2018 (UTC)Reply
Agreed. I think they should be titled by event (i.e. "Formation") rather than by basin. Grammarguruguy (talk) 03:20, 18 August 2018 (UTC)Reply
I strongly disgree with the need for subsections, since the MH would just end up as being even more bloated.Jason Rees (talk) 05:19, 18 August 2018 (UTC)Reply
What I don’t see is how dividing the MH into subsections would cause bloating. The division would make it easier for readers to access and editors to edit. New content to make each section bigger would not be needed, and it doesn’t seem like dividing would hurt any aspect of the article. Grammarguruguy (talk) 15:37, 18 August 2018 (UTC)Reply

I don't think that there's enough content for subsections right now. I believe that there should be a Genevieve-like expansion on its meteorological before thinking on subdivisions. ABC paulista (talk) 16:13, 18 August 2018 (UTC)Reply

If possible, I need someone who would be willing to review four articles for A-class over an unknown time period. Please note that Hector and Walaka both did not receive comprehensive good article reviews (I was a new user when they were just passed without much of a review). Hence the reason why I have completely rewritten Hector and am beginning to rewrite Walaka. NoahTalk 22:01, 8 August 2020 (UTC)Reply
