Redirect edit

This page was currently just linked back to the main Saffir Simpson scale page. (unsigned post 17:44, 25 June 2008 User:Ishmayl)

This redirect is confusing me. Why create a circular link / article self-reference using a redirect? Any case, the topic of "Hurricane Intensity Index" could stand to have it's own article here. Anyone know if there is a solid page on the subject somewhere that can be referenced / used to start building this article?

Confusion edit

I found a page containing this text: The Hurricane Intensity Index (HII) is an accurate hurricane scale that was engineered by Dr. Lakshmi Kantha, a professor at the Univerity of Colorado at Boulder. ... that page then links to a proported "full article at wikipedia" --Kuzetsa (talk) 04:15, 31 August 2008 (UTC)Reply

Redirection edit

The user VeronicaPR had copied the content of her article Hurricane Severity Index to this article making the whole thing redundant. I've cancelled her input and made a redirection to Tropical cyclone scales which is more general than to redirect to the Saffir-Simpson scale. The original link to a university site is dead and could not serve as a base for a wikipedia article.
