Talk:Hurricane Michael/Archives/2020/December

Split?
Should we split the Florida section off? I personally don't think we should as the current one is bloated a bit and it is the primary area of impact. Without it, the article would be small even if everything else got expanded. What does everyone else think?

 * Oppose – Unless someone has plans to significantly expand the content in the Florida impacts section, there would be absolutely no benefit to an article split here. Most of Michael's impacts were in Florida. Additionally, we are nowhere near the readable prose limit for Hurricane Michael's article, so a split isn't even necessary to begin with.

 * Oppose for the same reasons listed by LND, I don't see a reason why it needs to be split off when it can easily be covered in the main article. Perhaps something like "Effects of Hurricane Michael in the southeastern United States" would fill an article better. AveryTheComrade (talk) 23:28, 13 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Oppose It's just like the 1900 Galveston hurricane, where most of the impacts were in Texas. ~ Destroyer 🌀🌀 00:42, 14 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Oppose literally no point because most of the impacts were in Florida, so there is no need. Hurricane   Covid  (contribs) 01:53, 14 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Oppose — Same as with every other split discussion I've commented on: work on the main article first and revisit after. It's not long enough to warrant splitting at present and no effort toward expansion has been shown. Without actual improvements splitting just creates a needless WP:CFORK and leads to articles rotting away. ~ Cyclonebiskit (chat) 22:38, 14 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Support -- I looked over the article and there is a great deal of Florida content. I could see having a separate subarticle for Florida, and simply using its lede within this article. Thegreatdr (talk) 23:50, 14 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Oppose at the moment. If, when Michael's article is done, it is too long, then maybe, but the article is only 40 kb of prose at the moment. ♫ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 14:35, 15 December 2020 (UTC)
