Will do. YE Pacific Hurricane 02:44, 4 May 2021 (UTC)


 * First initial comment: while the lead is fine, why is there no seasonal summary section? I seem to recall other articles of the same time frame having them. YE Pacific Hurricane 03:46, 1 July 2021 (UTC)
 * I believe I fixed this a while ago and added a seasonal summary. Do you intend to continue this review? This has been open since May 4 and you have only left one comment so far--12george1 (talk) 21:07, 11 August 2021 (UTC)


 * Honestly I should stop doing GA reviews altogether because I never finish them anymore. I try to use it as a way to get back invested in Wikipedia but it never seems to work. Anyway here we go:
 * "Another tropical depression formed in the western Caribbean around 06:00 UTC on July 11, this time about 75 miles (120 km) northeast of the Honduras–Nicaragua border. It moved west-northwest without development, striking near Chetumal, Quintana Roo, late on July 12 as a tropical depression." why are miles spelled out? YE Pacific Hurricane 16:22, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Fixed--12george1 (talk) 04:51, 13 August 2021 (UTC)


 * "The storm banked north once in the Gulf of Mexico and attained peak winds of 70 mph (110 km/h) late on July 14, although it remains possible it was briefly a hurricane." elaborate? This article is short enough where there's probably room to go into some details. YE Pacific Hurricane 16:22, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
 * I added a bit about how the 70 mph (110 km/h) wind speed was observed from a ship, though there's not much more about how it may have become a hurricane. This is literally all metadata says on the matter: "Late on the 14th, a ship encountered maximum winds of 60 kt from the ESE simultaneous with its minimum pressure of 1006 mb. Based on this ship, a 60 kt intensity is analyzed from 18Z on the 14th to 00Z on the 15th though it is possible that the system briefly reached hurricane intensity."--12george1 (talk) 04:51, 13 August 2021 (UTC)


 * "100 head of cattle were lost to storm surge.[16]" probably should link to storm surge. YE Pacific Hurricane 16:22, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Done--12george1 (talk) 04:51, 13 August 2021 (UTC)


 * "there are no conclusive indications that the system ever attained winds of 40 mph (65 km/h); the lack of substantive evidence simply prevented a downgrade during reanalysis.[2]" can the Atlantic hurricane reanalysis project be explained/linked. It's kinda weird for this to be mentioned out of the blue. YE Pacific Hurricane 16:22, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Done--12george1 (talk) 04:51, 13 August 2021 (UTC)


 * "Governor Theodore Roosevelt Jr. ordered all government departments to assist in search and rescue,[21] while the Red Cross cared for 250 homeless in Ponce.[25]" has nothing to do with the article but didn't know Teddy Jr was governor of PR. YE Pacific Hurricane 16:22, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
 * "and a 200-ton dredge" convert to metric. YE Pacific Hurricane 16:22, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Done--12george1 (talk) 04:51, 13 August 2021 (UTC)


 * "The number of dead reportedly ranged from 1,500–2,500, signifying the deadliest hurricane on record in Belize and one of the deadliest on record in the Atlantic basin.[6]" the article that you yourself wrote says 2.5K. YE Pacific Hurricane 16:22, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
 * I investigated the death toll estimates to see why I chose 2,500 in the article. Turns out that that figure is used in more recent sources. I will use the 2,500 figure for this article.--12george1 (talk) 04:51, 13 August 2021 (UTC)


 * " the storm transitioned into an extratropical cyclone around 00:00 UTC on September 28 while to the southeast of Newfoundland." link to extratropical cyclone. YE Pacific Hurricane 16:22, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Done--12george1 (talk) 04:51, 13 August 2021 (UTC)


 * "The season's final system was first identified as a tropical or subtropical storm north of the Leeward Islands around 06:00 UTC on November 22." which is it? YE Pacific Hurricane 16:22, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Removed that but clarified later that the storm may have been subtropical--12george1 (talk) 04:51, 13 August 2021 (UTC)
 * I myself forgot about this review at times and had some things irl and on Wiki that I was involved with, especially with finishing the 2020 AHS. I turned my attention back to this now that I'm done with that and because the 1932 AHS is also getting closer to GA, which could complete the 100 season GA/A/FA streak. Anyway, I've fixed all of these issues. Thanks for the review --12george1 (talk) 04:51, 13 August 2021 (UTC)
