Image for each storm edit

I am trying to get an image for each storm, like 2005. I have started uploading ones that aren't on Wikipedia yet, and they are listed below. If you find a better image, feel free to replace it.

Should Gabrielle be before Florida or as a hurricane? Can't find ones of Felix, Jerry, or Lorenzo at their peaks. Hurricanehink 21:54, 23 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

Got them all. Hopefully they are good enough. Hurricanehink 20:53, 26 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

ACE? edit

At Talk:Accumulated_Cyclone_Energy/Atlantic_by_year are the ACE values I've calculated from the best-track. This conflicts with the ACE given in this article. Why? Is there a source for the data in this article? Jdorje 01:28, 20 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

Vandalism edit

Fixed vandalism in the Naming sections, where the names were altered (such as "Wendy" becoming "your mama" and "Tanya" becoming "Tj") as well as a few explicit sentences at the end. Jake52 23:26, 13 March 2006 (UTC)Reply

Another depression? edit

According to this, there was a depression over canada. But it's possible that it's not a tropical depression, as it doen't say that. What do you people think? íslenska hurikein #12(samtal) 21:08, 9 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

Nice pic, but no need to mention it. It is clearly extratropical. Hurricanehink (talk) 21:13, 9 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

Storm section edit

Why can't you just do what all other articles do: put a list of the storms in that section?! Rory (reply on my page!) (talk) 22:54, 21 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

Should we go back to the old format? ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 16:36, 8 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

Merge list article? edit

This one slipped by. Should we merge the "list of storms" article? It's highly redundant. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 15:16, 26 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

CCI check edit

I have done only a partial CCI check on this article, from the Tropical Storm Allison FAR. I have started the {{Copied}} template on this page,[1] and attributed the copy from Tropical Storm Allison,[2] but from this edit forward, content copied from other storms needs to be checked and attributed as WP:CWW.

Proposed merge of Hurricane Humberto (2001) into 2001 Atlantic hurricane season edit

Fails WP:NWX as there was no damage or fatalities from the storm and overall minimal impact. Noah, AATalk 14:50, 26 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Merge. Minor impact. The season article would be greatly improved by absorbing the content from the Humberto article. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 17:15, 26 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
  • Merge Does not warrant a standalone article for the reasons stated. This storm's story can be well told within the season article. Drdpw (talk) 21:57, 26 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
  • Weak keep Because I feel that the sailing record mentioned in the article would be removed from 2001 Atlantic hurricane season should a merger proceed. And that is encyclopediac content.--134.6.205.51 (talk) 19:29, 28 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
    That's not something that should prevent a merger from happening. Opposing due to something that may or may not even happen and should have a discussion (for inclusion or exclusion) in and of itself isn't a valid rationale. Noah, AATalk 16:11, 5 February 2024 (UTC)Reply
  • Strong Keep — While it only had minor impacts, it does pass WP:NEVENT. WP:NWX is a helpful guide, but is not full policy/guidelines. Actually, a search on Google Scholar for “Hurricane Humberto 2001” pulled up several academic/research articles including: A Model Study of Gravity Waves over Hurricane Humberto (2001) {2008 case study}, The formation of hurricane Humberto (2001): The importance of extra-tropical precursors {2007 case study}, and The Evolution of Hurricane Humberto (2001) {2014 case study}. Seems clear that while the hurricane had minimal impacts, the hurricane itself is notable and has lasting coverage. The Weather Event Writer (Talk Page) 23:26, 8 February 2024 (UTC)Reply
    @WeatherWriter: The question I have with you voting keep on every one of these discussions you are participating in is why should there be an article on an individual storm if it comes at the expense of the season article? Keeping smaller articles on questionably notable storms ends up being bad in the long-run because the season article suffers from a lack of material. Either the articles get merged if it would be beneficial or the season article gets sent to GAR/FAR for not covering the major aspects or not being comprehensive. I will tell you from experience that not every journal should be included in an article (relevance) and that a passing mention does nothing to establish notability. I will also tell you that many of these storms have impact that would fall under WP:ROUTINE since it's expected for minimal damage to occur from either winds or water. While these aren't true fish storms, they are the low-hanging fruit. There are cases where I have not nominated small articles since the season section is fleshed out appropriately and a merge wouldn't be needed. Your choice here, but if you do this on every discussion we have now and in the future in cases where almost everyone else agrees a merge is appropriate, I would consider it to be disruptive towards the goal of improving the encyclopedia. Noah, AATalk 00:12, 9 February 2024 (UTC)Reply
    Hurricane Noah, I would strongly suggest you strike your direct personal attack against me. I have commented in exactly 3 proposed merges you have started in the last 10 days. Saying "in the future in cases where almost everyone else agrees a merge is appropriate, I would consider it to be disruptive towards the goal of improving the encyclopedia is the exact opposite of how it should be as you should focus entirely on the content and not the editor. If I see any further very well directed and unwarrented attacks against me for commenting in a basic proposed merge discussion that you started, I will go to AN/I as I did nothing wrong. I did not attack you in my comment. I never mentioned a single editor and I focused entirely on the article and on why I think it should be kept. So please, strike your personal attack and focus on the dang content and not on my 3 comments. The Weather Event Writer (Talk Page) 01:06, 9 February 2024 (UTC)Reply
    @WeatherWriter: I'm not striking anything. It would be pointless considering it's still there regardless. You quickly commented on these proposed merges in short order, making it look like you were going to oppose every single merger if journals covering something tangentially related to the storm existed. I merely stated what I would consider to be disruptive actions as a caution to not go down that path, not that you have done something disruptive as of this point. Did you read all these ahead of time before making the comments or did you simply find them and post them here? I ask because I'm not certain whether you did so or not since the comments were made in quick succession. Some of the various journals seem like relevant meteorological/impact topics while others do not. Noah, AATalk 01:33, 9 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

Fails WP:NWX since the impact was minimal. Other than it being large and lasting a while, the storm isn't very notable. The season section in this article is in dire need of an expansion and merging this article would give it the material it so desperately needs. Noah, AATalk 16:09, 5 February 2024 (UTC)Reply
