Christopher Hayes Locklear Kennedy

This person is notable because he represents a 40,000.00 member non federally recognized tribe. Kennedy's efforts in the art community support the federal recognition of the Lumbee tribe. He is one of the few Lumbee artist in the world. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Chkennedy1 (talk • contribs) 14:40, 12 April 2007 (UTC).

Any queries I will follow up later - cheers SatuSuro 05:36, 28 April 2007 (UTC)

Hmm - some project level issues as to whether lists or disambigs even get fitted to the project or not. It might be a few days before I have a proper look - anyways the plan is - to check the whole thing out and get back here and at the noticebvoard - worst case scenario - a week. cheers SatuSuro 05:46, 28 April 2007 (UTC)

Little context in Infalliable

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Infalliable, by Pheonix15 (talk · contribs), another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

Tropical Storm Danas

Regarding to Tropical Storm Danas (11W), I know as of this time models from JMA and JTWC doesn't say that it will make landfall. But, tracks of tropical disturbances change and doesn't correspond to the current models of meteorological agencies. If the models are right, it's wind bands still will affect Japan. As of this time, it is not yet affecting any place but warnings are now in place. A-yao 09:41, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

Tropical Storm speeds

For the legend of the graphical timeline in the Timeline of the 2007 Pacific typhoon season article I used the speeds given in Tropical cyclone scales#West Pacific, which list a tropical storm as 63-88 km/h (10 min avg.), not 63-117 km/h. I realize that is how tropical storms are defined elsewhere in the world, but aren't the numbers I gave correct for that region of the world and also make the colors consistent with their usage in the graphical timeline? Also, it's less confusing than having two overlapping definitions. Perhaps using the West Pacific scale in the graphical timeline with more clarification in the article would be a good compromise? Once that's done Timeline of the 2006 Pacific typhoon season should be updated the same way. -- HiEv 04:26, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

Re: Your comment on my talk page... Actually I did "bother to read" the explanatory section, however it doesn't make any sense for the agencies that determine what rank each storm gets to use a 1-minute average for all storms except for severe tropical storms, and that simply doesn't seem to be the case anyways. The text in Tropical cyclone scales#West Pacific indicates that all storms measured in most of the West Pacific are based on a 10 minute average, not a 1 minute average most of the time and a 10 minute average for one. (That section is also where I got the "typhoon ≥118 km/h" information.) Aren't the descriptions given in the Timeline section all based on 10 minute averages? The article seems to indicate that only the US uses 1 minute averages, China uses 2 minute averages, and everyone else uses 10 minute averages. The Tropical cyclone scales#Comparisons across basins section also notes that both JMA and JTWC use ten minute averages. However, it gets worse. That section also notes that the JMA and JTWC have different speed ranges for almost everything, and only the JMA uses the term "severe tropical storm." Ugh. Any idea how to fix the legend now to work with both the JMA and JTWC definitions? -- HiEv 06:14, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

Well, an article should probably use only one system whenever possible to avoid confusion and error, and since the JMA numbers are official we should probably go with that. Either way, those typhoons could still be sub-divided into category 1-5 based on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Scale (SSHS) for easier comparison with other regions (though it looks like cat 1 overlaps STS, right?) with a notation that the SSHS isn't actually used by the JMA. Or perhaps we should just move this to the article's talk page and start a discussion/straw poll to see what others think? That would probably be better than us two deciding this for ourselves since be both agree it's not a simple question. -- HiEv 08:28, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

P.S. Thanks for the correction on the JTWC's system. As for reverting back, I think we should stick with the JMA's system for the pre-typhoon numbers, though that means that the legend/explanatory section still needs further corrections. -- HiEv 08:48, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

I'd be OK with using JMA 10-min for everything below typhoon, but admittedly it's not my field. I say you should fix the page to use that for now, and also bring it up on WT:WPTC to see if anyone has a better suggestion. Don't forget to note that Timeline of the 2006 Pacific typhoon season also needs to be updated to match 2007. -- HiEv 09:22, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
