WHAT ARE YOU TALKIN ABOUT!!! WHAT ABOUT SUMMERS MESSAGE--JG55 20:24, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

Re: TCCOTF

I really don't know. The thing never got started in the first place. Yes, Mitch was the first candidate, but no one did any work except for myself and Titoxd. I think setting it up was probably a waste of time. We are not really a united group. We are just users with a common interest. I have learned that if you want things to get done, you have to do it yourself, like how you have been working on older WPAC seasons. No one would want to do them, even if you asked, so you have to do them by yourself. By the way, good job with them. Hurricanehink (talk) 15:34, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Edit summaries

When editing an article, there is a small field labeled "Summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:

Edit summary text box

It is highly recommended that one fill in the edit summary field, as it makes it easier for you and your fellow contributors to understand what has changed, and is helpful when going through the history of the page. Please keep this in mind in the future, and remember to always use edit summaries.--May the Force be with you! Shreshth91($ |-| ŗ 3 $ |-| ţ |-|) 16:08, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

Re: RFA

Whoa! Thanks for doing that. Let's see how it goes! Hurricanehink (talk) 15:23, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

I really appreciate you doing this, but I do not feel I am ready yet. Therefore, I withdrew from the candidacy, though I will try to address their comments. I know it's way too soon, but I can tell. Maybe in a few months I'll try again. I should probably start working outside of hurricanes... Oh well. Thanks again :) Hurricanehink (talk) 16:31, 18 May 2006 (UTC)
Wow, thank you very much. :) Those are very kind words, and I will always help you out if in need. Hurricanehink (talk) 19:57, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

Cheers, mate. (PS, please remember to subst: the templates, cheers.)

Inline sourcing

Inline sourcing is a little footnote that looks like this:

This sentence has an inline cite.[1]

  1. ^ This is a footnote

Inline cites look like this: <ref name="Reference name">Reference info</ref>.

To display the inline cites as footnotes, do this: <references/>

For more information, see cite.php.

I hope this answers your question. Miss Madeline | Talk to Madeline 20:38, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

You're welcome. Also, Hurricanehink provided another example at the assessments page of the wikiproject. (The same place where you first asked this question). Miss Madeline | Talk to Madeline 20:44, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

WPIT

No problem. I more than enjoyed helping out with the project. I hope a few more people get more involved. I did what I could with the Project page but I think it's a big bogged down. Do you think it's alrite if we delete all of the information about related and/or similar projects until we get enough interest. I think it scares people off when they see such a large index.Aznph8playa2 01:28, 22 May 2006 (UTC)

That's just mean

You stole that Bonnie article from Hurricanecraze32. You should let him know immediately, and admit you stole his info. Hurricanehink (talk) 00:01, 23 May 2006 (UTC)

But you still stole most of the article. You saw how angry he got about the Matthew article. Did you steal that one, too? You still have to tell him, and the sooner the better. Hurricanehink (talk) 00:29, 23 May 2006 (UTC)

Heyyyyy, Hunter!!! Whats up??? Well theres nothin to say beside HUNTER if u stop being depressed ill stop being mean?!?!? Deal!! Laterr..--JG55 00:59, 23 May 2006 (UTC)

This is getting out of control-I've worked my head off on Bonnie,Marco,Matthew,14,Bob and the Emmy/Frances duo.Bonnie is 1.7 million-not 2 million.This info i have worked on-either delete that article-or i WILL Report you.HurricaneCraze32 20:44, 23 May 2006 (UTC)
I apologize for the attitude-please let me publish the Emmy/Frances duo,Kyle and 14 so i can have 3 articles that i've made.HurricaneCraze32 10:45, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

You never responded to my request on the discussion page. Where did this information come from? What are the OEP and USACE references that crop up a few times? Thanks. TimL 23:55, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

camille2

that was not very nice. What should I try? The text was fine as it was but you have made it almost incomprehensible. I haven't added it back in because I don't know the source, (and it's not for lack of trying). Your thoughts appreciated. TimL 00:00, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

Please see here and WP:COPY. I have removed the copied text for now. TimL 00:37, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

Article formatting

Dear Tropical cyclone editor,

As a member of the Tropical Cyclone Wikiproject, you are receiving this message to describe how you can better tropical cyclone articles. There are hundreds of tropical cyclone articles, though many of them are poorly organized and lacking in information. Using the existing featured articles as a guide line, here is the basic format for the ideal tropical cyclone article.

  1. Infobox- Whenever possible, the infobox should have a picture for the tropical cyclone. The picture can be any uploaded picture about the storm, though ideally it should be a satellite shot of the system. If that is not available, damage pictures, either during the storm or after the storm, are suitable. In the area that says Formed, indicate the date on which the storm first developed into a tropical depression. In the area that says Dissipated, indicate the date on which the storm lost its tropical characteristics. This includes when the storm became extratropical, or if it dissipated. If the storm dissipated and reformed, include the original start date and the final end date. Highest winds should be the local unit of measurement for speed (mph in non-metric countries, km/h in metric countries), with the other unit in parenthesis. The lowest pressure should be in mbars. Damages should, when available, be in the year of impact, then the present year. The unit of currency can be at your discretion, though typically it should be in USD. Fatalities indicate direct deaths first, then indirect deaths. Areas affected should only be major areas of impact. Specific islands or cities should only be mentioned if majority of the cyclone's effects occurred there.
  2. Intro- The intro for every article should be, at a minimum, 2 paragraphs. For more impacting hurricanes, it should be 3. The first should describe the storm in general, including a link to the seasonal article, its number in the season, and other statistics. The second should include a brief storm history, while the third should be impact.
  3. Storm history- The storm history should be a decent length, relatively proportional to the longevity of the storm. Generally speaking, the first paragraph should be the origins of the storm, leading to the system reaching tropical storm status. The second should be the storm reaching its peak. The third should be post-peak until landfall and dissipation. This section is very flexible, depending on meteorological conditions, but it should generally be around 3. Storm histories can be longer than three paragraphs, though they should be less than five. Anything more becomes excessive. Remember, all storm impacts, preparations, and records can go elsewhere. Additional pictures are useful here. If the picture in the infobox is of the storm at its peak, use a landfall picture in the storm history. If the picture in the infobox is of the storm at its landfall, use the peak. If the landfall is its peak, use a secondary peak, or even a random point in the storm's history.
  4. Preparations- The preparations section can be any length, depending on the amount of preparations taken by people for the storm. Hurricane watches and warnings need to be mentioned here, as well as the number of people evacuated from the coast. Include numbers of shelters, and other info you can find on how people prepared for the storm.
  5. Impact- For landfalling storms, the impact section should be the majority of the article. First, if the storm caused deaths in multiple areas, a death table would work well in the top level impact section. A paragraph of the general effects of the storm is also needed. After the intro paragraph, impact should be broken up by each major area. It depends on the information, but sections should be at least one paragraph, if not more. In the major impact areas, the first paragraph should be devoted to meteorological statistics, including rainfall totals, peak wind gusts on land, storm surge, wave heights, beach erosion, and tornadoes. The second should be actual damage. Possible additional paragraphs could be detailed information on crop damage or specifics. Death and damage tolls should be at the end. Pictures are needed, as well. Ideally, there would be at least one picture for each sub-section in the impact, though this sometimes can't happen. For storms that impact the United States or United States territories, this site can be used for rainfall data, including an image of rainfall totals.
  6. Aftermath- The aftermath section should describe foreign aid, national aid, reconstruction, short-term and long-term environmental effects, and disease. Also, the storm's retirement information, whether it happened or not, should be mentioned here.
  7. Records- This is optional, but can't hurt to be included.
  8. Other- The ideal article should have inline sourcing, with the {{cite web}} formatting being preferable. Always double check your writing and make sure it makes sense.

Good luck with future writing, and if you have a question about the above, don't hesitate to ask.
