Not a dab page
You reverted page move with comment: "this is not a set index article, and you didn't even capitalize this correctly. Long-standing WP:WPTC consensus is titles of this form".
 * This is in fact a set index article, not a disambiguation page. Please see WP:SIANOTDAB.  Hurricanes named Michael are of one type: hurricanes.  Note how the page is categorized.  It's in .  I didn't put it there; it was already categorized that way - and that is correct. A dab page is tagged with disambiguation and this page is not so tagged.
 * You refer to "long-standing WP:WPTC consensus", and I suggest you read it, specifically WP:WikiProject Tropical cyclones.  It says clearly that "All tropical cyclones of the same name should be visible through a set index article (e.g. List of tropical storms named Dean)."  This is exactly what I am doing with the page move to "List of hurricanes named Michael".  I suggest moving to that name.
 * You should also read the last bullet in that section that refers to how hurricane disambig has been deprecated. May you were unaware of the deprecation.
 * Also, if it isn't clear, again as per "long-standing consensus" the reason to use the descriptive title "List of..." is because Hurricane Michael is a primary topic.
 * Finally, regarding "didn't even [sic] capitalize this correctly", you're right, "hurricane" should not have been capitalized. Touché.Coastside (talk) 06:08, 18 December 2019 (UTC)

Hurricane Michael (disambiguation) → List of hurricanes named Michael – This is not a disambiguation page; it's a set index article. Relevant policy is at WP:SIANOTDAB and WP:WikiProject Tropical cyclones. All of the entries are of one type, i.e., hurricanes. There is also additional content pertaining to the topic - it's not just a list of terms to be disambiguated. The established policy at WP:WPTC explains how to name Storm set index articles, and this requested move is in accordance with that policy. Coastside (talk) 18:56, 18 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Support. The guidance (not policy) of the Wikiproject isn't particularly clear because the example in the guidance, List of tropical storms named Dean, is in fact a redirect to Tropical Storm Dean, but I take the point that if Hurricane Michael 2018 is a primary topic then the others need to be listed as an SIA at another title.
