Orphaned references in Hurricane Dalilia (1989) edit

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Hurricane Dalilia (1989)'s orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "CPHC":

  • From 1989 Pacific hurricane season: "The 1989 Central Pacific Tropical Cyclone Season". Central Pacific Hurricane Center. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. May 4, 2007. Retrieved May 26, 2009.
  • From Tropical cyclone: "Observations". Central Pacific Hurricane Center. 2006-12-09. Retrieved 2009-05-07.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT 06:14, 10 September 2011 (UTC)Reply

  • "The storm accelerated, headed directly towards the Hawaiian Islands." - This sentence would read better if you put the word "and" between the comma and "headed".
  • "the island chain recived more" - Typo
  • "While tracking near the Hawaiian islands," - Capitalization error; capital "I" on "islands"
  • "northwestern Hawaiian islands" - Same as directly above
  • On reference #2, switch "Case" to "Robert Case"

  • Technically, yes, but in this instance, the name Dalilia was a typo from when the EPHC transferred the storm name list to the NHC, so I'd argue that the intended version of the name was a hurricane in 2013 and 2001. YE Pacific Hurricane 16:55, 9 February 2017 (UTC)Reply
  • Support per nom. No need for disambiguation. Laurdecl talk 07:06, 15 February 2017 (UTC)Reply
  • Oppose per YE. Hurricane Dalilia redirects to Tropical Storm Dalila, and some of the other Dalilas may have been more notable than this Dalilia. – Juliancolton | Talk 13:59, 15 February 2017 (UTC)Reply

  • Support Unnecessary disambiguation. Wrongly implying there is another hurricane with this name, as the current title does, is NOT helpful to anyone. --В²C 02:06, 23 February 2018 (UTC)Reply
  • Support As the only topic of this name, no need for disambiguation. The hatnote is sufficient for those who are seeking another topic by a different name.--Yaksar (let's chat) 05:47, 1 March 2018 (UTC)Reply
