Talk:September 1948 Florida hurricane/GA1

Entry
The main entry/introduction/lead of this article is too long compared to the body. I question how such obvious and noticeable aspect was not discussed and also set as a good article. It is a good article but may not meet the criteria well. Please improve the article. Thanks.Continentaleurope (talk)

I am reviewing this Wikipedia entry: YE Pacific  Hurricane 00:01, 23 May 2014 (UTC)
 * "The September 1948 Florida hurricane was the most intense tropical cyclone to make landfall in the state since the 1935 Labor Day hurricane.[1]" winkilink to landfall (meteorology) in "landfall". You do this in all my GAN's now I return the favor :P YE Pacific  Hurricane 00:01, 23 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I should practice what I preach :P --12george1 (talk) 13:38, 23 May 2014 (UTC)


 * "Over 700 buildings and houses were destroyed." a house is a "buildings", so that's redundant. YE Pacific  Hurricane 00:01, 23 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Fixed--12george1 (talk) 13:38, 23 May 2014 (UTC)


 * If damage was 2 mil in Cuba and 10 mil in FL, how is the damage the infobox 12.5 million? Do you need to re-take 2nd grade all over again? :P YE Pacific  Hurricane 00:01, 23 May 2014 (UTC)
 * I copied and pasted the infobox from the 1948 Miami hurricane and forgot to change the damage toll :P--12george1 (talk) 13:38, 23 May 2014 (UTC)


 * "Several locations reported an "eye", leading some meteorologists" wikilink meteorologists here. YE Pacific  Hurricane 00:01, 23 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Done--12george1 (talk) 13:38, 23 May 2014 (UTC)


 * "Impact" header, should be "Preparations and impact". YE Pacific  Hurricane 00:01, 23 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Done--12george1 (talk) 13:38, 23 May 2014 (UTC)


 * "Almost 700 buildings and homes were destroyed.[8]" a home is a building, as said earlier. YE Pacific  Hurricane 00:01, 23 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Done--12george1 (talk) 13:38, 23 May 2014 (UTC)


 * " 2 to 3 feet (0.61 to 0.91 m)" Why spell out "feet"? YE Pacific  Hurricane 00:01, 23 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Oops :P--12george1 (talk) 13:38, 23 May 2014 (UTC)

Otherwise, we're on the same page, GC. YE Pacific  Hurricane 00:01, 23 May 2014 (UTC)
