Talk:2000 Sri Lanka cyclone

Importance
I know some of you might disagree with the mid-importance rating, but if left 500,000 homeless and was among the most destructive cyclones in Sri Lanka history. Hurricanehink ( talk ) 20:09, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

Class
B-class, already up for GA. Might even be an A-class article once GA is passed. —Cuivi é nen 00:21, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

Cyclone 04B and comments
Should there be a redirect for Cyclone 04B to this title? I left some queries in HTML comments where I couldn't understand the text.Andplus 09:19, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Not really, as Cyclone 04B is a designation given to cyclones in many years: 2001, 2002 and 2005 all had a 04B. Furthermore Cyclone 04B in 1999 killed over 80 people, significantly more than this storm. I suppose there could be limited utility in making a redirect from Cyclone 04B (1999).--Nilfanion (talk) 09:55, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

Intensity
"3-minute sustained: 165 km/h (105 mph) 1-minute sustained: 120 km/h (75 mph)" How can a 3-minute sustained be higher than a 1-minute sustained? Pål Jensen (talk) 21:20, 25 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Different warning centers = Different Estimates. In this case the IMD thought that the system was more intense than the JTWC did.Jason Rees (talk) 23:04, 25 December 2015 (UTC)

WP:URFA/2020
Looking at this one as part of the ongoing FA sweeps. Some notes below:
 * Per WP:RSP, there is no consensus that the Worldwide Socialist Web Site is a particularly reliable source for factual reporting. As WP:FACR requires the higher standard of high-quality RS, this is not a useable source in a FA
 * A scan of Google scholar, ProQuest, EBSCO, and Gale suggests that there isn't any significant scholarly literature that I could find not represented here, so it looks good on that front

While that one poor source is the only major issue, it is used a fair bit, and this cannot be marked as satisfactory until it is replaced. This one is on the CCI, but I spot-checked a couple of the references and didn't turn up any issues. Hog Farm Talk 06:17, 1 December 2021 (UTC)
