Talk:Hurricane Edith (1971)

Image
I found a good radar image, but it's a PDF. Is there some way I can upload PDFs?

I dunno, but here's one online after weakening from Cat. 5. It's from this website, so I'm not sure if the owner will allow it or not. Hurricanehink 03:02, 16 October 2005 (UTC)

Class
I lowered it to stub, seeing as there's only one sentence for impact. Hurricanehink ( talk ) 02:12, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Wow. It looks great now. It must be at least a start class. íslenskur fel lib ylur #12 (samtal) 12:38, 2 November 2006 (UTC)
 * What more does it need for B class? Hurricanehink ( talk ) 16:15, 2 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Nothing. You were right to put it on GAN. I doubt any more pictures are available, so I'm not sure what else this could need. The person who reviews this on GAN might be able to help. --Core des at 02:38, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Cool. Yea, there are some pictures in the newspaper archive, though all are copyrighted. Hurricanehink ( talk ) 02:42, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

GA Pass
Good job, as usual. Two notes before it makes its inevitable FAC run:
 * 1) Consider getting a source on the last part, about it being one of four Cat 5's not to be retired.
 * 2) A few areas could use some minor cleanup in terms of prose.  It reads fine, but could use a copyeditor before you explore further promotion.

Congrats on another great hurricane article. --badlydrawnjeff talk 19:55, 3 November 2006 (UTC)


 * I think it should instantly be upgraded to A-class. CrazyC83 21:06, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
 * If Hink's record is any indication, this will be a FA in a month anyway. --badlydrawnjeff talk 23:20, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Thanks :) Hurricanehink ( talk ) 23:29, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
 * You were off by about two weeks... too early Tito xd (?!?) 20:15, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

Almost ready for FAC
I think this is almost ready for WP:FAC personally. CrazyC83 01:41, 7 November 2006 (UTC)


 * Would anyone opposed to me putting it up for FAC? I currently have Fabian up, so if there's some outstanding objections I might need some help getting it done. However, Edith seems ready. Hurricanehink ( talk ) 01:52, 7 November 2006 (UTC)


 * No objections here. CrazyC83 05:46, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Ditto. íslenskur fel lib ylur #12 (samtal) 14:48, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

Rapidly, Rapidly, Rapidly.....
In the intro of the page you use the word "rapidly" 3 times. Maybe you should change this, as this article is being reviewed for FA status.-Hairchrm 06:16, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

Broken link
The link for the last ref is broken. --- RockMFR 23:57, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Fixing. Apparently the NHC changes the page name every year (so it is now at ). —Cuiviénen 00:29, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
 * And the Wayback Machine doesn't have a record of it, as it blocks the spider via robots.txt. Tito xd (?!? - cool stuff) 00:32, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Try web cite - http://www.webcitation.org Raul654 05:51, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Nope, doesn't work either. Tito xd (?!? - cool stuff) 07:56, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

A face.
Is it just me or does that picture resemble a face with it's cheeks puffed up and blowing...weird. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by GothmogII (talk • contribs) 11:27, 24 April 2007 (UTC).


 * Hey, you're right! Brutannica 03:49, 25 April 2007 (UTC)

Vandalism
Since it's a FA, it has been vandalized a bit. Semi-protection until off front page? -Domovoi 17:50, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Nah, it's still manageable. Tito xd (?!? - cool stuff) 21:09, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

Hurricane Edith (1971) → Hurricane Edith – Much more |Hurricane_Edith_(1963)|Hurricane_Edith_(1955) prominent than any other Ediths. Thus this article is considered by me primary topic. --SMB99thx XD (contribs) 09:44, 24 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Oppose no need to pick Top Hurricane Edith, the 1963 and 1955 ones still did damage. In ictu oculi (talk) 16:19, 24 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Oppose per above, not a clear primary topic. –  Juliancolton  &#124; Talk 18:11, 29 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Oppose no it's not the primary topic because it's not more prominent by a wide major than the others. YE Pacific Hurricane  19:05, 29 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Oppose - Negative, ghostrider, for the same reasons already listed. TropicalAnalystwx13 (talk · contributions) 21:46, 29 April 2017 (UTC)

WP:URFA/2020

 * Decent amount of scholarly literature discussed here (I tried to weed out earlier Ediths but there are some still here)
 * The article claims there is no known Mexico impact. While I haven't checked Mexican newspapers, I would implore that impact definitely did occur. The storm made landfall in Mexico twice. The Mexican gov't produced and  detailing the rainfall.

This feels so wrong on so many levels, but I regretfully have to send this to WP:FARGIVEN since there's a lot missing. CCI check is not done. Noah Talk 20:18, 4 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Do you still have the same concerns listed above for this article? If so, would you be interested in bringing this article to WP:FAR? Z1720 (talk) 14:52, 21 November 2023 (UTC)
 * No progress has been made. I don't have the time to raise a FAR and participate since I am heading into finals. Noah, AATalk 22:31, 29 November 2023 (UTC)
