Talk:Hurricane Intensity Index

Redirect
This page was currently just linked back to the main Saffir Simpson scale page. (unsigned post 17:44, 25 June 2008 User:Ishmayl)
 * This redirect is confusing me. Why create a circular link / article self-reference using a redirect? Any case, the topic of "Hurricane Intensity Index" could stand to have it's own article here. Anyone know if there is a solid page on the subject somewhere that can be referenced / used to start building this article?

Confusion
I found a page containing this text: The Hurricane Intensity Index (HII) is an accurate hurricane scale that was engineered by Dr. Lakshmi Kantha, a professor at the Univerity of Colorado at Boulder. ... that page then links to a proported "full article at wikipedia" --Kuzetsa (talk) 04:15, 31 August 2008 (UTC)

Redirection
The user had copied the content of her article Hurricane Severity Index to this article making the whole thing redundant. I've cancelled her input and made a redirection to Tropical cyclone scales which is more general than to redirect to the Saffir-Simpson scale. The original link to a university site is dead and could not serve as a base for a wikipedia article.
