Talk:Hurricane Gaston Predictions

Why?
Why would you waste your time on such a page? Why wouldn't you spend time writing about a more interesting and notable storm instead? &mdash; jdorje (talk) 19:06, 10 February 2006 (UTC)


 * Sorry, I don't mean to sound negative. I just find it frustrating that you keep adding new articles on non-notable storms when there are so many notable ones that have very poor articles. If you have particular interest in a storm because you were in it, then I can understand your interest in the article (myself, I actually drove through Hurricane Gaston on the way home from Savannah to Wilmington on Sunday night).  But all the article stubs you've written seem to have no particular connection (covering the Carolinas, Florida, Cuba, and Canada), so I doubt that's the case. &mdash; jdorje (talk) 19:24, 10 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Well in the Hurricane Katrina article there were subpages like the one I wrote. And since I found more info on the storm (like the timeline and why the storm was so unpredictable, etc..), I figured out that some of the sections might need subpages (like again in the Katrina article).

 * Well, the hurricane Katrina article is obnoxiously long (which the gaston article may be close to, but isn't at yet). It's also 100x more notable than Gaston (having done 100x the damage and killed 100x as many people) and so is deserving of 100x more content.  Not that I'm defending any of the mess that is the katrina articles...but let's not duplicate the problem.  The end result of most sub-pages is to never be updated and to remain very low quality. &mdash; jdorje (talk) 19:45, 10 February 2006 (UTC)


 * Agreed. It's too small, and there is so little information for such a non-notable storm that it really should be in the storm article. Hurricanehink 21:52, 10 February 2006 (UTC)


 * This storm isn't even close to notable enough for subpages like this. Purge them all, none are nessesary. -- §  Hurricane  E  RIC  §Damages archive 22:38, 13 February 2006 (UTC)
