Hey there
Please don't add things to articles with comments like "with real terms" unless you are prepared to find a source to confirm that. I recommend reading WP:RS and not using webzines. Blackmetalbaz (talk) 21:42, 7 June 2010 (UTC)

Progressive death metal
I had added sources, but they were removed because they were not reliable. But I think a site like progarchives.com is pretty reliable when it comes to prog music. Also, the page about technical death metal does not have the sources it needs. There is not a single source to be found where they say tech death is the same as prog death, so at least the first line of that page should be altered. DarthSivius (talk) 20:11, 20 June 2012 (UTC)

Ron article
Hey! Do you want me to merge this User:ABC paulista/sandbox - with your new Cyclone Ron article? That way you have the complete edit history under one page. Good work on it, too. ♫ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 19:42, 15 December 2012 (UTC)

 * Feel free to remove it and use the sandbox for something else. --♫ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 20:11, 15 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Just to clarify the Chappel/Bate report you are citing to say that BoM said X or Y, does not back you up as it clearly states on pg 1, that it contains info obtained from RSMC Nadi, TCWC Wellington etc. I also note that if the BoM had issued warnings then it would have in bold at the top of the section, (TCWC Perth, TCWC Darwin or TCWC Brisbane) depending on where the system is (WA, NT or Qld) like it as for Sid or Selwyn. I also note that that the GP summary is primary based on Operational Data.Jason Rees (talk) 08:50, 19 December 2012 (UTC)

Retired storms
There's no need to apologize for asking a question, its the only way we learn.

Golden Slam
It's not a question of my agreeing. You were the one who changed this recently to add the term "calendar year." If challenged, the burden is on you to convince others that the change is worthy. We have grand slams and non-calendar year grand slams. We have golden slams and non-calendar year golden slams. Please self revert and discuss if you don't like the consensus view. Thanks. Fyunck(click) (talk) 20:23, 11 January 2015 (UTC)
 * I was being WP:BOLD and made the section like the Super Slam, and since there was never a consensus about it and no sources backing up a restrict definiton about Golden Slam, I wasn't the one that should have opened that discussion. Well, I've answered back in the talk page. ABC paulista (talk) 01:16, 12 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Being bold is great and fine. Encouraged at wikipedia. But when you change something, and it is reverted, you are then supposed to bring it to talk to change peoples minds... not revert again. Fyunck(click) (talk) 01:22, 12 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Well, technically, I reverted your change so you were the one supposed to bring it to talk. But well, let's just keep discussuing about the issue itself. ABC paulista (talk) 01:36, 12 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Absolute baloney. It was stable for years. Even Encyclopedia Britannica acknowledges it. Get rid of that edit and bring it up elsewhere if you want to change consensus. Fyunck(click) (talk) 04:49, 12 January 2015 (UTC)
 * I won't revert myself, no matter how much you ask, unless you show irrefutable arguments about Golden Slam. For now, you have shown only one source that's from Encyclopedia Britannica, but it is not even reliable for itself since encyclopedias fall on the WP:TERTIARY. I've shown sources that are on the WP:SECONDARY, so I expect that you show secondary sources as well.
 * And where is your so called "consensus"? I didn't found one anywhere, or it simply doesn't exist? ABC paulista (talk) 14:12, 12 January 2015 (UTC)

El Nino
FYI The Overall El Nino article needs to be gone through with a very fine toothcomb as it mentions the occurrences several times when one section would probably do. This is what I was attempting to do earlier but got distracted with other things. it woudl also be good to get rid of the summuary of the current event from the article since we have the 2014-16 El Nino event article now. Jason Rees (talk) 23:42, 3 April 2016 (UTC)
 * I appreciate your suggestions as too my edits and I will try and act on them. Anyway I see on the La Nina article that you have used BoM's data and chucked the timeline back to 1900, which is good. However, the article does need to be gone through with a fine toothcomb as well and expanded out, so I will see what I can do with it though im also curious to develop the La Nina/El Nino event pages out further especially the 2014-16 El Nino Event.Jason Rees (talk) 12:46, 4 April 2016 (UTC)
 * See what you think to the layout of EL Nino article now - id be curious to hear some of your thoughts.Jason Rees (talk) 22:26, 11 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your thougths and feedback on the state of the El Nino article, I needed a push in figuring out where to take it which is why i asked for your comments. The Antarctica section is located within the impacts on the global climate section, because it generally consists of impacts to the climate rather than specific impacts though it could do with copying to the ENSO article. I think we do have to upgrade the ENSO and La Nina articles, but all 3 will take quite a bit of time to do as we need to figure out what needs to go in them and where. At the moment we have an ongoing EL Nino so theres a lot around about it, if we get a La Nina later this year as predicted then no doubt it will change.Jason Rees (talk) 10:14, 14 April 2016 (UTC)

reverting El Niño edits
My edits for El Niño were recently reverted, saying "the source didn't support the statement". Can you please tell me why? Angela Maureen (talk) 01:06, 22 April 2016 (UTC)

2014-16 El Nino
I hope you dont mind us using the infobox storm in order to summarize the event - it seems to be the best option as I can not think of any other parameters that would be useful. Anyway even though it is OR, I feel it is better to fill the end date of the El Nino in, but to what is a good question and i would be curious to have your thoughts on it.Jason Rees (talk) 17:51, 31 May 2016 (UTC)
 * The infobox storm is already in the article, while what im thinking for the end date is either May - July 2016 or April to June 2016. However, this is assuming that the CPC/IRI wave byebye to El Nino in their June Updates.Jason Rees (talk) 11:52, 1 June 2016 (UTC)
 * I can see where your coming from, however, I suspect that both the JMA and NOAA/IRI will declare it gone either this month or next which would lead us very nicely to say that it dissipated between May and July 2016 without any WP:Weight issues. On a side note within its state of the climate for 2014, NOAA says that 2014 was reclassified by them as a marginal El Nino, which provides us with even more justification to call it 2014-16 El Nino imo.Jason Rees (talk) 22:24, 1 June 2016 (UTC)

Winston
Just FYI, I reverted your edit from weeks ago regarding that you stated "Winston was not a TC by RSMC" in the Australian basin. If you may not know, a source was provided in the Other systems section about Winston and is classified a TL by the BoM. TLs are included in articles. Typhoon2013 (talk) 03:58, 15 June 2016 (UTC)
 * User:Meow was the one who added it in as a tropical low, based on this warning from the BoM. I personally do not like it and i suspect that it was probably just a remnant tropical low at landfall.Jason Rees (talk) 20:10, 15 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Indeed it is from a forum and as i said I dont like it much and I feel that it is better just to call it a Remnant Low in the Aus Basin, per Steve Youngs track for it and the BoM summary for march.Jason Rees (talk) 22:20, 16 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Sorry for replying to your message late. At first, I thought it was you who added Winston. JR, if you say so, that it can't be trusted as it was from a forum, then why state in Winston's article its dissipation on 3 March? ABC paulista, the (3) sources were already provided in the Other systems section, in the line about Cyclone Winston. However in those sites, it says Ex-Tc, someone told me here that Ex-Tcs are still active or something, but not extratropical (?).  Typhoon2013  (talk) 03:46, 17 June 2016 (UTC)

Images in infobox
Images are perfectly acceptable in infoboxes. The trouble is, with most music genre articles, how well a particular image serves to summarize the subject is debated.-- 3family6 ( Talk to me  &#124;  See what I have done  ) 20:26, 17 April 2017 (UTC)

Why I cannot mention the ‘global 10-min record’ in the Winston article
According to JMA which operates RSMC Tokyo for the Northwest Pacific Ocean, CI8.0 of the Dvorak technique equals to 122 knots. That is why Typhoon Haiyan is given 125 knots and Typhoon Meranti is given 120 knots; both of them are analysed CI8.0. However, CI8.0 equals to 150 knots in the Southern Hemisphere, so it is not proper to compare the two hemispheres. The Hong Kong Observatory, however, is the only Northern Hemisphere agency that uses the similar conversion method from in the Southern Hemisphere. It indicated Haiyan a 155-knot typhoon. 🐱💬 03:35, 7 July 2017 (UTC)

 * Hi ABC paulista. Can you let me know when you think this was discussed and agreed? I can't see any discussion on the article's talk page where consensus was reached. Thanks. (Please reply here, so the discussion is in one place.) --hippo43 (talk) 23:44, 6 June 2018 (UTC)


 * First of all, consensus does not need to be achieve trough discussions. Per WP:CON, every edit or sattement that is not disputed is consensus in some kind, and this criteria has been around for some years. About the talk page, while there was not a full discussion about it, in some instances this criteria has been cited there and no one disputed this reasoning there. ABC paulista (talk) 01:47, 7 June 2018 (UTC)
 * In your edit summary you stated it had been discussed before. Actually it hasn't explicitly been discussed or agreed, and editors have disagreed with it. --hippo43 (talk) 02:14, 7 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Per WP:CON, if something is not disagreed that it is automatically considered agreed, and since it has been cited without explict opposion, than it was a case of implicit consensus. Also, seeing these editor's changes it's hard to tell if they were disagreeing with the criteria at all or just trying to add a exception to the rule. All in all, no one seems to be willing to discuss that matter and its reasonings, so there was no disagreement to the criteria at all.
 * Also, my talk page isn't the place for such discussions, this should have been brought to that list's talk page. ABC paulista (talk) 15:52, 7 June 2018 (UTC)

JTWC
The JTWC has never been an official WMO forecasting agency, in fact, the JMA has been the official RSMC since 1989. Before then there was no official warning centre to the best of my knowledge.Jason Rees (talk) 21:31, 7 February 2020 (UTC)
 * True, in 2000 they started assigning names. ABC paulista (talk) 21:47, 7 February 2020 (UTC)

Prim, proper and official
You are putting way too much on things being prim, proper and official, when we have to remember that there are other warning centers out there, who are entitled to put out official forecasts on tropical cyclones without consulting with the RSMC in charge of a system. In the specific case of the NIO, we have to remember that TCWC Jakarta and China have no option but to warn for parts of the basin. Does the fact that the IMD are the RSMC for the basin make their forecasts superseed Jakarta/China's? I doubt it. In fact, the JMA includes this general disclaimer on its website "Please note that information issued by the RSMC Tokyo - Typhoon Center represents neither official analysis/forecasts nor warnings for the areas concerned." We also have had the BoM monitoring this weeks tropical depression in TCWC Jakarta's AoR and taking over the forecast responsibility for Uesi, before it hit 160E and the Australian region.Jason Rees (talk) 04:14, 8 May 2020 (UTC)
 * , well, someone has to. IMO, the things being prim, proper and official is the best way to properly address Wikipedia's guidelines and avoid problems that plague the whole encyclopedia, like WP:OR, WP:URS and WP:NPOV. See, I'm not saying that all info that comes from non-WMO-endorsed agencies should be completely disregarded, but they should be included with proper context noted and giving precedence to WMO-endorsed agencie's ones. Most of these other warning centers put out forecasts for local interests, since they have a better understanding than the RSMC of what the people of those places might need, but they are most local agencies, while RSMCs and TCWCs are more for continental/global interests, and IMO this fact also gives them an edge on relevance for Wikipedia. About Jakarta and CMA, I've never seen them replacing IMD on issuing advisories on NIO, but a RSMC/TCWC can hand over their responsibilities to another agency when they feel the need to, like FMS did to Uesi. And on Australian Region, all three TCWCs (BoM, Jakarta and Port Moresby) are WMO-endorsed and equally responsible for issuing advisories. Even in some cases, a RSMC can issue advisories on another basin, like JMA does sometimes in CPAC, but we never deem them official, never include them on that basin's season count and usually include them on a separated section of the article.ABC paulista (talk) 23:13, 8 May 2020 (UTC)
 * The problem with being so prim, proper and official is that it gets taken too far and leads to conflicts over what data to use, especially when it comes to the classification of tropical cyclones. For example, the UKMO and Meteo France are both endorsed by the WMO as RSMC's (Exeter and Toulouse/Reunion) and would, in theory, be able to conflict what RSMC Miami/Washington say about a TC especially if it was transitioning into an extratropical system (In fact I believe that the UKMO/Met Eirrean (I presume that ME is WMO endorsed since they also name storms) did a few years ago by calling a system that was impacting them extratropical). I have also never seen the CMA or TCWC Jakarta replace the IMD for TC warnings, but if a TC was in the Straits of Malacca at say 2.5N 100E, then I would expect to see TCWC Jakarta in warning status. (Same goes for the CMA and a TC impacting China).Jason Rees (talk) 01:18, 9 May 2020 (UTC)
 * , actually, being prim, proper and official has the objective to solve possibles conflicts while avoiding to fail Wikipedia's gudelines, giving precedence to better endorsed info, with a proper criteria, while acknowledging the existance of other sources. Also, to avoid such conflicts, the WMO's Tropical Cyclone Program (TCP), divided the Tropical Cyclone-prone areas in seven, assigning a RSMC/TCWC for each Area of Responsability (AoR), so none of them overlap. In this scenario, both Exeter and Toulouse aren't part of the TCP, so they hold neither any AoR, nor any official status on the matter, and AFAIK there's no "Extratropical Cyclone Program" on WMO, so the Best Tracks are still the best dataset for extratropical cyclones that transitioned from tropical ones. La Reunion is a RSMC that's part of the TCP, but their designated region is the SWIO, so they hold no official status over another AoR. Once Meteo-France expressed their disagreement over NHC's assessement of tropical cyclone status for Tropical Storm Grace (2009), but despite that the storm still is a official tropical cyclone because, in the end, NHC holds the final say about it when it comes to the Atlantic and Eastern Pacific regions, and Grace is still present in their Best Track dataset. About the name-giving status, it doesn't guarantee a RSMC-status for an agency. Other agencies like FU-Berlin and PAGASA also name storms, but the don't hold official status, being more used for local interests. About CMA and Jakarta, I would also expect to see them in warning status... for local interests. But I wouldn't expect IMD to hand them any regional authority over NIO, since they hold no official status for that basin whatsoever. ABC paulista (talk) 03:30, 9 May 2020 (UTC)

Also as you may have seen, I have recently been doing a bit of work on tropical cyclone intensities I the SWIO, where we have to ask the question do I use the BoM data or Reunion's data on certain systems. In doing so I have to remember that the basin moved from 80 to 90E in around 1986 and that these days both issue offical forecasts for the SWIO.Jason Rees (talk) 01:39, 9 May 2020 (UTC)
 * , I'd advise you to seek who holds the official best tracks for that time now, since BTs supercedes operational data, but also acknowledging that at the time another agency issued advisories to it, similar on how JTWC is treated on WPAC typhoon's articles. About the official forecasts, actually, that's not right. according to WMO, the SWIO basin sole responsible agency is Meteo-France's La Reunion. BoM is responsible for the australian region, which takes a bit of the South Indian Ocean, but La Reunion's and BoM AoR never overlap with one another. ABC paulista (talk) 03:30, 9 May 2020 (UTC)

83-84 La Nina
Technically speaking the 83-84 is La Nina per the SST's from the CPC (It's marked in blue after all) - In fact, id probably go as far as to say that the ENSO State was probably La Nina straight off the bat of the super El Nino of 82-83 until 1986. However, how much of this is OR - I dont know which is why I have resisted reverting your edit.Jason Rees (talk) 23:00, 22 October 2020 (UTC)

Yomiuri's Treble
I checked out the discussion on Yomiuri's Treble.

I have a question about your below comment.

Yomiuri qualified for the 1987 Asian Club Championship through the 1986 Emperor's Cup.


 * {| class="wikitable sortable"

! Club ! Japan Soccer League ! Asian Club Championship
 * Furukawa Electric
 * 1985–86 season Champions Qualified for the 1986(–87) Asian Club Championship
 * 1986 seaosn Winner, formerly known as 1986–87 season
 * Yomiuri FC
 * 1986–87 season Champions Qualified for the 1987(–88) Asian Club Championship
 * 1987 season Winner, formerly known as 1987–88 season
 * }
 * 1987 season Winner, formerly known as 1987–88 season
 * }

I think Yomiuri qualified for the 1987 Asian Club Championship through Japan Soccer League 1986–87 season Champion At that time, Emperor's Cup didn't have qualification - Asian Club Championship.

Therefore, Japan Soccer League 1986–87 season and Asian Club Championship 1987 seaosn are not same season.

Yomiuri, In order to Achieve a treble
 * 1987 Asian Club Championship Winner
 * 1987–88 Japan Soccer League Champion
 * 1987 Emperor's Cup

What do you think of my opinion? Footwiks (talk) 13:02, 9 November 2020 (UTC)
 * , I think that this discussion is a moot point since there's a reliable source stating that it does constitute as a Treble, and can only be disputed if another reliable source challenges it. About your reasoning, AFAIK the Japanese League only started qualificating it's clubs to the Asian Championship on 1988-89 and, if I'm not wrong, the previous two Asian Championships started before the ending of the previows two Japanese Leagues, so they couldn't be used as qualifications. And even if you were right here, it wouldn't mean much beacause two competitions happening on the same season, with one serving as a qualification for the other, is not unprecedented. It happened before, mostly in Latin America. ABC paulista (talk) 22:47, 9 November 2020 (UTC)

La Nina + 2021
I keep seeing you remove 2021 from the La Nina article per WP:Crystal which begs the question, when would you be comfortable with stating that a La Nina existed in 2021? All of the forecasts that I have seen state that it will exist on January 1, 2021.Jason Rees (talk) 16:59, 18 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Forecast=prediction, and as stated on WP:CRYSTALBALL, we cannot state that something already happened, or it's bound to happen, based on predictions. Predictions can be used as sources for statements that tell that "something can happen", or "something is forecasted to happen", but no further than that. So IMO it would only make sense to include 2021 when its first trimonth on ONI shows a La Niña, or some major agency (JMA, BoM, NOAA, etc) declare that the phenomenon is happening that year.

2002 Pacific hurricane season issue
I'm going to make it very clear with you about the 2002 Pacific hurricane season and Maysak. Maysak entered the Central Pacific basin on October 30 and became an extratropical cyclone the next day, but they did not warn by the Central Pacific Hurricane Center at that time. (until 2019 since CPHC moved to NHC). And you can tell what the hell this is the map that is located in the central left part; not to be confused with the Ele and Huko triangles, but a point of a tropical storm that everything indicated that it was Maysak that entered the basin without the CPHC noticing: Did you see that? Tell me later --МОДОКАУ 23:32, 30 January 2021 (UTC)
 * First of all, this image was generated by an Wikimedia user, which make it unusabe as a source per WP:TERTIARY, also in these tracks the users usually use IBTrACS as a source to generate them, but the source makes no disticnction of RSMC/officially WMO-endorsed best tracks and unoffical ones, so they further fail WP:RS. The main thing is that the CPHC is the official RSMC for the Central Pacific basin's (between 140W and the Date Line), so it's the only one who can say which systems did officially exist within their AoR. It doesn't matter what JMA, NHC, JTWC and others say about the CPAC, it's the CPHC who has the final say on this matter and if a system isn't included on its best track, it's not official. And for unofficial storms, like this one, 1992's Ward and Dan, 1999's Tanya and others, an "Other Systems" subsection or another mentions is more than enough for them. Only official storms count on the statistics.

You seem to be in an edit war
Your edit war on the template is not with me for a change. If you want to observe WP:BRD, you should. Someone added it and discussed and you reverted twice without discussing. That's a problem. I was reverting the anon, not you. Walter Görlitz (talk) 01:55, 6 February 2021 (UTC)
 * That's not true, it seems that you completely misundertood the situation, so let me explain: The whole situation started when 3family6 added both Christian metal and Unblack metal on the template, and then I reverted it. Then, instead of leaving the template on its status quo and start a discussion on the subject, as mandated by WP:BRD, he proceeded to re-add Unblack metal on the page and an anon made further changes. You reverted the anon, but, intentionally or not, also reverted 3family6, which he took as an accident and, again, added Unblack metal, which I reverted back and then on-and-on until, finally, he started the discussion. Note that he only added the discussion after the last round of reverts, neither in the start of the dispute, nor that I ignored it multiple times (I answered right away). But still, WP:BRD states that the page must be kept on the latest configuration before the bold edit (in this case, it was the inclusion of Unblack metal) was made, and that's what I'm trying to do. ABC paulista (talk) 02:19, 6 February 2021 (UTC)

Three-Quarter Slam
Hi, sorry but I had to ask, are you trying to make a point on the talk page of the Grand Slam article because of the argument you had with Hippo? Because honestly I feel like you do. The Three-Quarter Slam is about winning 3/4 slams so I linked the to the lists of singles of players who won 3 titles in one season. How is that even a controversial edit? And if we can't mention singles players other that Rafa in the "Surface Slam" section then it has no place in the article and it should be removed. I agree with you on the retractable layout, I'll fix it later. Cheers. --ForzaUV (talk) 15:45, 29 July 2021 (UTC)
 * , yes,I'm applying the same logic that applied to remove those tables. According to WP:SYNTH and WP:LISTN, if a source doesn't directly state that "player X accomplished achievement Y", than they are not eligible to be mentioned on such list or table, being considered an instance of WP:OR. The same reasoning is valid to statistics like "N number of players achieved Y". And if there isn't a source that directly state that each of those players listed on the "lists of singles of players who won 3 titles in one season" did achieve a Three-Quarter Slam, then relating them to this section stating that they achieved such can be also considered as an instance of WP:OR. The Surface Slam section also mentions Navratilova, Graf and Serena, so it's not just about who achieved it, but if each of their achievement is recognized by a source, passing WP:RS and WP:V.

Grand Slam (tennis) edits
I did try and revert the bad sections at Grand Slam (tennis) but it wouldn't let me because of all the intervening edits. I'm certainly not going to go in and edit the mistakes.... there were too many. You'll have to fix them from scratch in your sandbox and then put it all back in. You can't leave it in that state for our readers. Fyunck(click) (talk) 18:40, 11 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Just because you disagree with some changes, or didn't like the results of such, that doesn't meam that they were "mistakes" or "bad", and they hardly affect the readability of the article. It's actually easy to change those templates to the more traditional format and can be done in one go, don't try to overstate or overplay the difficulty of such changes. It's not necessary to use the sandbox for such, and the fact that you were unwilling to manually redo the templates is not an excuse for your reversions. You removed a lot of data that have nothing to do with them, and that's plain wrong. ABC paulista (talk) 19:40, 11 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Yes it does. You are putting the cart before the horse. If someone reverts changes you recently made it is up to you to convince others they are better. You never just put it back in. That is against wikipedia rules. Put it in a sandbox where we can all look and see what changes are good and what changes are bad. Then we can put it back in corrected without any back and forth. That's the way it should work. If it's so easy, then remove it before re-inserting. Then we can discuss the merits of what I consider obtrusive changes that you want to include. Fyunck(click) (talk) 19:55, 11 August 2021 (UTC)
 * I'm unable to put it on a sandbox becasue my old computer gets slow and laggy when I open an edit page, and it gets worse the larger the edited article/section is. Something of the size of the Career Slam section alreary makes it very hard for me to work, so something of the size of that whole page is not feasible for me, my computer won't hold on (and that's why I made the previous edits in parts, section per section). But even if that wasn't the case, the sandbox page wouldn't help, because the change you asked is a mere technicality, we both know what it would look like. But since I agreed to make the change you asked, there's nothing for me to convince you, there's nothing to discuss to discuss, you gave nothing to be discussed. You just removed everything based on one technicality, without properly justifying the other changes, that's boderline disruptive. ABC paulista (talk) 22:00, 11 August 2021 (UTC)

Multiple titles section
So I checked out the Accessibility tutorial and colhead seems to be about tables' headers, the era distinction we have on the page is not a header so it's not an issue. That leave us with the placement of the tables and the exception of listing the names of all Channel Slam winners. I'd be willing to accept the removal of the other two-titles tables except for the Channel list if everything else in the section stays exactly the same. Is that a good compromise for you? --—ForzaUV 14:49, 31 August 2021 (UTC)
 * , that might not be formatted as a column header, but in practice it is still functioning as a header for the way it visually separates the the Pre-OE instances from the OE ones, and as such it's still a MOS:COLHEAD violation. ABC paulista (talk) 16:26, 31 August 2021 (UTC)
 * It's not a visual issue, headers are different than content cells and what we have there is a content cell. ForzaUV (talk) 18:14, 31 August 2021 (UTC)
 * , it's not an content cell because its contents aren't subordinate to the headers, its sole purpose is to divide some instance from others based on a certain criteria not addressed by other headers, and that's not permitted per MOS:COLHEAD. It should either have its own column, or separate tables for Pre-OE instances and OE ones. ABC paulista (talk) 21:32, 31 August 2021 (UTC)
 * I'm not convinced tbh, headers are identified with "!" while normal cells with "|". Same idea is used for countless tennis articles. ForzaUV (talk) 15:32, 1 September 2021 (UTC)
 * , it's not the formatting that defines the cell's purpose, but the other way around. The fact that these Open Era dividers aren't formatted as proper headers when functioning as one could be considered as mistakes on themselves. For the example you brought, that's a clear case of WP:OSE and WP:OTHERCONTENT. These are specific for player's articles, they were discussed and well accepted within the project (thus complying with Manual of Style/Tables and MOS:DEVIATIONS), thus they constitute as proper accepted exceptions. Your format never passed for such scrutiny. ABC paulista (talk) 16:15, 1 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I mentioned you on the other page but man you really enjoy linking all those Wikipedia essays and policies lol. I'll see what's in them in another time but nonetheless I think I have a clear idea how to fix such a trivial issue. Cheers. ForzaUV (talk) 00:52, 2 September 2021 (UTC)
 * , I like because "seeing is believing". It's the better way to illustrate what I'm talking about, so people can verify by themselves. It leaves less room for confusion, making the discussion more concise and fluid. And back-up my arguments, of course. ABC paulista (talk) 01:29, 2 September 2021 (UTC)

I reverted this edit and I guess I have to explain why since you couldn't figure out why I made those edits in the first place. The info is relevant because the section is linked to the Three-Quarter Slam on the other page, and if you read the prose of TQS, you'd see there are a couple of notable instances which I thought need to be highlighted. Also, while it's true those three tournaments haven't always been the first three but for the instances we have in the table it is true. The channel slam and title double statistics table need to be closer to each other since they're related and belong to the same section. Best. ForzaUV (talk) 07:25, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
 * , while I agree with you that the channel slam and the 2-slam tables should to be closer to each other than the 3 slam one, there should be still a notable and discernible gap between them to avoid visual blending, so I think that a 2 or 3-space gap is the optimal option in this case. But I disagree that the "First three slam" should be highlighted. Like you said, this info is already highlighted on the main article, another highlighting isn't necessary. And even if the context is somewhat appliable here, the info is still untrue because it might lead newbies into believing that it has been always this way which is untrue. In my view, that info has the potential to be more harmful than beneficial. Also, I think that the 3-slam table would benefit from being sortable, to give the reader the possibility to organize it chronologically. ABC paulista (talk) 21:56, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
 * The info about the first three is mentioned in the other article but not everyone get to the list page through the Grand Slam article so there should be some reference for what I think is an interesting info. Take me for example, I didn't know Hoad was going for a Grand Slam in the 1950s until a few months ago when I saw the list of AO/FO/WB, I noticed it and went to check the order of the tournaments at that time and they were indeed the first three. I don't expect casual or unfamiliar fans to notice that without a reference and there is really nothing harmful about that info, that's an exaggeration from you. These are the first three now and they've been in that order for a 100 years, only in maybe 10 years the order was different. Also, for the three instances we have the order is correct so it's no big deal. I'm not sure why you feel there is a visual blending with 1-space gap but I changed it to 1.5, see if it looks good to you or you can change it to 1.8 / 2, the tables are clear to me with a 1.5 gap. I made the 3 slam table sortable. ForzaUV (talk) 12:28, 9 September 2021 (UTC)
 * , I disagree. I'm not exaggerating, but you are underplaying the possble untrue ideas that this info might give the reader. I'm not totally opposed to displaying that kind of info, although I still believe that isn't that notable, but I'm opposed on how it has been displayed on the row header, and now with the sortable columns the table's layout stretches way too much because of it. But I have an idea on how to solve it. I'll implement it later, then you'll be able to review it. ABC paulista (talk) 17:14, 9 September 2021 (UTC)

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Cyclones Rona–Frank a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases for registered users, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Requests for history merge.   Chlod (say hi!) 17:26, 14 October 2021 (UTC)

Rona and Frank
Please do not move Rona and Frank again as your move before was undiscussed and controversial. You should seek consensus before ousting a page from its longstanding title. Noah Talk 23:49, 4 October 2021 (UTC)
 * , no I shouldn't. I just went WP:BOLD and changed it, nothing wrong with that per WP:BRD. Also, WP:TITLECHANGES deals with either unstable or controversial naming, and this case encompassed neither. So, nothing wrong with that either. ABC paulista (talk) 00:21, 5 October 2021 (UTC)
 * You were recently involved in a discussion where these type of pages were brought up. It was clearly labeled as "Undiscussed controverial page moves". Honestly, you shouldn't have moved this considering the whole set/naming scheme is still under discussion. Noah Talk 00:38, 5 October 2021 (UTC)
 * This discussion started after the moves were made, and its title is erroneous since this matter was discussed before, even on the WPTC. ABC paulista (talk) 01:53, 5 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Your edit history shows you commented on that discussion and then moved the page at a later time. The first discussion you linked has no consensus established and the second doesn't mention Rona/Frank + wasn't closed with a consensus (It was about two other specific cases). I would just wait to see how the current discussions pan out. There either needs to be consensus established for the whole set or a case must be made for each individual set of storms. I just expect everyone on all sides to keep all pages at their original titles until consensus is achieved and the discussion(s) are closed as such. Noah Talk 02:13, 5 October 2021 (UTC)
 * I'm not talking about Rona/Frank case exclusively, but this whole moving "spree", which started before the discussion was opened. And yes, both discussions ended, technically without consensus, but they did show a general favourability for such moves, and no, the second discussion, held on WPTC, wasn't about particular cases but to try to form a new consensus, a standadization of this practice, but it seems that people there weren't too enthusiastic about it, and the discussion de-volved into some case-by-case and didn't lead to much about the main subject. Honestly, I have suspicions that this new discussion will end with even less consensus and clarification than the others before. Just a feeling. ABC paulista (talk) 02:51, 5 October 2021 (UTC)

Maybe solicit outside thoughts? Get a message posted to the talk page of every project member? Things like that could help to get a consensus if participation seems to be lacking. Noah Talk 02:59, 5 October 2021 (UTC)


 * , That's an idea, but I don't think that it would lead to much. In the other discussions many users participated, but both went nowhere in terms of consensus. I don't think that "participation" is the problem, but more of a lack of interest on the subject as a whole, and for that I fear that there's not much what could be done. ABC paulista (talk) 03:04, 5 October 2021 (UTC)

Raquel
At the end of the day, Raquel was operationally assigned the designation 24U and 01U, which can be proved by you just looking through the technical bulletins presented on the talk page. As a result of this and the fact that Raquel existed during the 2015-16 season there is no reason not to include in the seasonal effects chart or the timeline images. Extra proof can be found in this edit summary at the time from who confirms that Raquel was assigned both designators. Jason Rees (talk) 22:06, 2 November 2021 (UTC)
 * , that's incorrect. Meow actually removed Raquel that was added in the previous edit because, as they said so, Raquel was never considered to be 01U, always being 24U (, i.e. 24U ≠ 01U). And none of them seem to explicitally state that it's considered part of the next season, meaning that it isn't different from other multi-season systems like Zeta and Alice, and in both cases, for example, they aren't metioned on either respective next season's timelines and summaries, and both don't mention the next season on their infoboxes. Also, even if that was true, all technical bulletins are preliminary data, not operational, and they become outdated after operational reanalyzed data is released, thus losing their value as sources, and you acknowledged that on the 2015–16 AUS season talk page. At the end of the day, neither BoM, nor FMS, nor any other reliable agency concerning tropical cyclones seem to consider it part of the 2015-16 season on either basin, so unless you can actually prove that it's considered part of the 2015-16 season, with sources that can be actually verified, it is WP:OR and should be reverted if no source can be provided. ABC paulista (talk) 22:27, 2 November 2021 (UTC)
 * 1) It is not original research to include Raquel in the 2015-16 seasons, when we are here to cover all systems that existed in the basin during the tropical cyclone year and not just the season. This means to include it in the seasonal effects and the timeline image even if you don't like it. 2) It was operationally assigned two designators by the BoM and yes the technical bulletins are both operational and preliminary data, however, they do not lose as much value as sources as you might think when the data is reanalysed. 3) I personally feel that both Zeta and Alice should be mentioned in the seasonal effects charts and timeline images of their respective seasons, since the timelines show the tropical activity of the year and not just the formal season. 4) Meow's edit summary is enough to prove that the BoM did assign two designators, even though the 01U was later dropped and is enough to justify putting the system in all 4 seasons. 5) The logs in the talkpage also back this idea up and are verifiable or if you drop me an email I can forward you them from my private archive.Jason Rees (talk) 23:09, 2 November 2021 (UTC)
 * 1)TC Season's page is to list and summarize a season and the systems that were officially part of it, and Raquel doesn't seem to be considered part of the 2015-16 season. I don't see anything wrong on mentioning them for context reasons, but compiling their data alongside the official ones may skew the seasonal data, reducing reliability and verifiability. 2) Technical Bulletins are as preliminary as "Forecast Advisories" in other basins, and when the preliminary data is superceded by the operational and Best Track data, they lose reliability per WP:OLDSOURCES. 3) Timelines and summaries only deal with the "formal season" and off-season storms that are acknowledged to be part of it, that's why the article and sections use the seasonal terminology, not annual. 4) Looking back at the discussions and edits at the time, it seems that the BoM came back-and-forth with the 24U and 01U designations because they weren't sure on whethever they should consider it part of the 2014-15 season or the 2015-16 season, and in the end they settled with considering it part of the 2014-15 season on their report, and their best tack data dropped the 01U designation in favour of the 24U one. Every undecided factor that came at that time doesn't count anymore face the reanalyzed data. Also, you reverted me on the "South Pacific" article, where the "U" designation is not used. FMS used the "F" designation, thus your whole "01U" argument doesn't apply there. 5) The links provided on the talk page seem to be broken (DB Connection failed), but they don't seem to allude to the idea that Raquel was considered part of the season. ABC paulista (talk) 23:45, 2 November 2021 (UTC)

1) We do not pick and choose which systems we monitor and would add in systems from unofficial sources since they are considered a part of the season. 2) I seriously doubt that it would skew the data, reduce reliability or verifiability to include Raquel, Zeta or Alice in the timeline image or seasonal effects charts for all years they are a part of. I am also not aware of a consensus to keep timeline images and seasonal effects to systems that are a part of the season formally or off-season storms that are acknowledged to be part of the season. 3) Technical Bulletins/discussions/advisories may well be operational and preliminary data, but their reliability does not change as much as you seem to think with the publication of reports and BT. 4) There is nothing I can do about the DB Connection failed bar that hope webcite comes back online and offer to send you over the bulletins via email as they prove that they considered it both 24U and 01U operationally. 5) I strongly feel that even if you feel that the whole argument doesn't apply to the SPAC, that you are misapplying Wikipedia policies by removing Raquel from the seasonal effects and timeline images because its OR to include it when its not.Jason Rees (talk) 00:41, 3 November 2021 (UTC)
 * 1) Yes, we follow what the agencies consider, and the fact that Raquel isn't considered part of the 2015-16 season stands still. Just like Zeta isn't part of the 2006 season, stating that a system from a previous season was part of this one just because it was monitored on this is WP:SYNTH. 2.1) It would increase the "season size", increase the amount of "TC days" on it, increase the "ACE", add the amount of deaths and property damage caused on the season, etc. So yeah, it has the potential to skew the data. 2.2) There might not have a consensus on the matter, but the majority of cases seem to follow this methodology, so I'm just standardizing the practice, and there's nothing on Raquel's case that suggest that it should be treated differently on the matter. 3) WP:OLDSOURCES disagree with you. It's common practice within the WPTC to replace preliminary data in favour of the operational ones. 4) It doesn't matter what they considered then, only what they consider now. Preliminary data loses its value face the operational ones, and like I showed above they dropped the 01U designation in their Best Track, mantaining only the 24U one. 5) In South Pacific's case it's WP:OR because the FMS never assigned Raquel as a 2015-16 system, and in Aussie's case is a WP:RS violation, like I stated on 4). ABC paulista (talk) 01:19, 3 November 2021 (UTC)
 * 1) I do not agree that it is a violation of either WP:RS or WP:OR to include Raquel in the seasonal effects chart or the timeline image, when we are here to include all systems that existed in the basin during the tropical cyclone year and not just the season even if they crossed the year. 2.1) Yeah it might have the impact of increase the "season size", increase the amount of "TC days" on it, increase the "ACE", add the amount of deaths and property damage caused on the season, etc but then all of those stats should be sourced back to the relevant agencies. I would also note that the stats for the ACE/TC days are not included in the SE Charts/TC Days since they are just random stats. 2.2) I strongly feel that you shouldn't standardise practises without seeking a consensus or doing your homework first, especially when should not be as consistent as you would like because most of the world does not follow the same practices as NHC. Hell even NHC do not follow NHC practises from what i hear through various channels. 3) Yes we swap out old sources for new ones but it does not mean that we completely drop them like you seem to wanna do and their reliability doesn't drop as much as you think regardless of what WP:Old Sources says 4) I still feel that the fact that they designated it as 01U for a majority their bulletins means that we should keep it in the seasonal effects and the timeline images of both seasons. Jason Rees (talk) 02:07, 3 November 2021 (UTC)
 * 1) We are here to include all systems that existed in the season according to the agencies, and Raquel isn't. Remember that we have to follow what the (valid) sources state, otherwise is WP:OR. 2.1) They are, and usually these stats are attributed to the season that these systems pertain to. Attributing it on the next season just because it was monitored then is WP:SYNTH. 2.2) This matter in particular doesn't lead to many divergent cases, so it shouldn't be hard to implement a standard on it. Also, like I said, I'm just following what's already applied on the majority of similar cases, you're the only one who seems to oppose this common practice. If anything, you should be the one to seek consensus to change a practice that's been implemented since long. 3) I'm not saying that we should completely disregard the preliminary data, but that on cases which preliminary and operational data disagree with each other, operational ones take the precedence and preliminary ones becomes obsolete, and in this case, the 01U designation its implied status as a 2015-16 system is obsolete. Also, by stating that, are you advocating for us to disregard one of the most important guidelines to support a WP:POV? Remember that WP:OLDSOURCES is part of the WP:RS guideline. 4) The 01U designation is not used anymore by BoM to refer to Raquel, therefore any possible implications that could come with it is not supported by them. Also, how the 01U designation could have any effect on a possible status as a 2015-16 SPAC system, since this designation has no bearing inside FMS's AoR?

CONCACAF Gold Cup
Hello.

It is incorrect to mix CONCACAF Championship titles with those of the CONCACAF Gold Cup, because this generates a series of contradictions. In the main article of the Gold Cup it is said that Mexico has 8 titles, as you can see. In external sources like like RSSSF or worldfootball.net competitions are also separated, so I believe it is correct to cite both competitions in their corresponding time periods. As for the Panamerican Championship, the CPF is already defunct, it was an attempt by a confederation that preceded CONCACAF, I don't see any problems in citing it. There have also been CCCF and NAFC competitions prior to CONCACAF estabilishment.

I don't intend to get into unnecessary edit conflicts, I'd just like to make my point cleary. Svartner (talk) 17:58, 15 February 2022 (UTC)


 * , IMO you're wrong on both accounts, because it's not uncommon to separately count titles on both all-time and within a timeframe (German Championship/Bundesliga, Brazilian Championship/Taça Brazil/Robertão, Tennis's aand Golf's Grand Slams, etc), and many souces cite an all-time counting, even RSSSF does so. And even if the CONCACAF Gold Cup's main article doesn't cite the Championship's titles, Wikipedia's articles cannot be used as sources, and like I said before, there's nothing wrong with using both counting methods. About the CPF, CCCF and NAFC, none of them were the main continental confederations affiliated to FIFA, so they aren't eligible for this list. ABC paulista (talk) 21:56, 15 February 2022 (UTC)

Mixed slam table layout conundrum
Hey, there. I have been recently editing the Mixed slam article and came across a tricky situation and am not sure what to do. The thing is:

row 1969 with both symbols has the following data cell divided in 3 parts. Given it is a shared title, shared with remark should be present there, but as you can clearly see, it is a part of 2 different combos. My question is should the aforementioned data cell, divided in 3 rows, be colored so it does look like some unfinished, poorly colored mess. I tried different options. This is the best I could come up with. Any suggestions on how to improve, since we are gonna need it eventually for the Multiple slam section, when that gets finished up. Also, come to think of it. While we are already at the matter, which footnote version do you prefer better:

Multiples titles in a season
{{Legend|#FFD1DC|Player won all 4 Grand Slam tournaments in the same year.|text=▲}}

Three titles
{{Legend|#FFF5EE|Surface Slam (major titles on 3 different surfaces in the same season).|text=§}}


 * OR

Multiples titles in a season
{{Legend|#FFD1DC|Player won all 4 Grand Slam tournaments in the same year.|text=▲}}

Three titles
{{Legend|#FFF5EE|Surface Slam (major titles on 3 different surfaces in the same season).|text=§}}

Because the singles have Version 2, doubles articles have Version 1...So do we unite them, so they are unique across the board for consistency or do we leave them as they are? Qwerty284651 (talk) 00:09, 25 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Hey there, about your conundrum, my option would be to de-color the "shared with" cell, to serve as a "buffer zone" between the two AO instances, while the year should bear the color of the most notable achievement i.e. stay yellow. About the footnotes, I prefer Version 1, since Version 2 lead to some repetitiveness and can get in the middle of the row header title, which is kinda intrusive and doesn't look well. ABC paulista (talk) 00:52, 25 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Okay, then. That was a pretty straightforward answer. Thanks, @ABC paulista. Will make the suggested changes. Best, Qwerty284651 (talk) 08:29, 25 February 2022 (UTC)
 * P.S. I removed the borders above and below "shared with" data cell using  markup. Would you prefer a buffer, colorless version with borders, or not? Qwerty284651 (talk) 08:29, 25 February 2022 (UTC)
 * , for me the borderless option looks slighty better, so I prefer that. Also, I've made a small change on your first table, to better reflect my proposal so you can better visualize it. ABC paulista (talk) 16:34, 25 February 2022 (UTC)

 * @ABC paulista Are you okay using this template for the data cell preceding it, not the one with "shared with", but the one with 2 symbols? Qwerty284651 (talk) 13:03, 26 February 2022 (UTC)
 * , I'd like to see how it'd look before stating my opinion on it. ABC paulista (talk) 13:25, 26 February 2022 (UTC)
 * This is what I had in mind, but the damn template is small in size. I guess one would have to tinker with its template data to increase the size manually.... Qwerty284651 (talk) 21:02, 26 February 2022 (UTC)


 * , honestly I prefer the previous look. The divide is hard to distinguish, and the fact that it doesn't occupy the full cell is bothersome. I think it shouldn't be applied to the original at least until the size issue is solved. ABC paulista (talk) 21:58, 26 February 2022 (UTC)
 * @ABC paulista Okay, so you agree with the color choice, the size is the issue, which is self-evident. Glad we are on the same page on this one. I am gonna ask around on Village pump if anyone can help out in making a new template using the same code, but diff size params... Qwerty284651 (talk) 23:58, 26 February 2022 (UTC)
 * If you find a solution for this issue, maybe it could be applied on the "shared with" cell. I think that it could serve as a better divide than the current buffer zone. ABC paulista (talk) 14:44, 27 February 2022 (UTC)
 * I know. Especially for the dubious and inconspicuous cases, where you have 2x 2-slam combos and only 3/4 cells are highlighted, can be confusing for first-time readers/visitors of the page as well as 3- and 2-slam combos, where you highlight the 3-slam combos with the darker pink, add the 3/4 and 2/3 symbol, but don't highlight the 2-slam combo. I am just repeating myself here. But you get the general gist.
 * "Shared with" cell would require more tinkering than what I had in mind. I meant more the layout of the diagonal color template, but use the other diagonal and have the size be customizable; so far only the borders' colors are customizable (all 6 of them), but not the size... Worst-case scenario we revert to the original bgcolor. We will need a new template based on the aforementioned template..But is gonna be a doozy. My template programming skills are basic, so I will ask around where I can for some help. Will keep you posted. Qwerty284651 (talk) 21:48, 27 February 2022 (UTC)
 * P.S. Are you, by any chance, good at programming Templates? Qwerty284651 (talk) 21:48, 27 February 2022 (UTC)
 * , unfortunately I've never programmed in my life outside industrial usage. ABC paulista (talk) 22:47, 27 February 2022 (UTC)

La Nina
It is very interesting to note that NOAA's ONI is showing atm that we have been in La Nina since 2020, apart from two 3-month periods (MJJ & JJA) where the temperatures were only just above the La Nina threshold.Jason Rees (talk) 11:27, 5 April 2022 (UTC)


 * , that's very similar to the 2010-12 La Niña event, where only 2011's MJJ was above the threshold. JMA's and BoM's indexes also indicates similar developements. ABC paulista (talk) 17:07, 5 April 2022 (UTC)
 * It kinda makes me wonder why we have to call it two separate events, apart from the obvious original research angle.Jason Rees (talk) 18:42, 5 April 2022 (UTC)
 * , I don't think that we need to call them as separate events. Yes, most indexes show a gap between instances, but that's also true for the 1998-2001 and 2010-12 events, and yet most sources treat them as one prolonged event, so I don't see why it should be different here if the sources treat this one the same way.

Crossover storms
Greetings I would like to inquire about a [|a recent edit you made]. Are 011-E/Hermine of 2010 the only systems that share a TCR despite the storm weakening below TD threshold in the mountains before regenerating? There seems to have been some lengthy discussion about this on the Hermine talk page but the discussion was inconclusive. Is there any other example in which this has happened, where the NHC lists two storms in the same TCR despite the former having weakened below TD threshold? Undescribed (talk) 01:30, 5 July 2022 (UTC)


 * , they actually don't share the same TCR, but that happened before with crossover storms: Joan and Miriam, and Cesar and Douglas have their own TCRs despite being considered to be the same. I'm not aware of another system that weakened below TD status during crossover in NHC AoR, but in 11E's TCR it's stated that it "moved into Atlantic basin to become Tropical Storm Hermine", and 11E's last BT point is exactly the same as Hermine's first. Also, in WMO's BT, they are lumped together. ABC paulista (talk) 02:01, 5 July 2022 (UTC)

Need a second opinion with horizontal scrolling documentation
Hey there, @ABC paulista. I recently added input to the table help page regarding vertical scrolling. I noticed that it's not mentioned neither at MOS:SCROLL or scroll list help page.

Given you are well acquainted with the Wikipedia guidelines, I was wondering whether the additional information, I have added, is sufficient or lackluster and whether it needs to be mentioned in some capacity on the other two aforementioned pages or not.

Looking forward to hearing your opinion. Best, Qwerty284651 (talk) 22:17, 3 October 2022 (UTC)

WikiProject Weather: Map Dot & Template/Infobox Colors
Dear project member, This message is being sent out to encourage new ideas and feedback on those proposed in regard to the colors debate for WikiProject Weather. For those who are unaware of what's been happening over the last year, I will give a brief summary. We have been discussing proposed changes to the colors of the dots on tropical cyclone maps and templates and infoboxes across the entire weather project in order to solve issues related to the limited contrast between colors for both normal vision as well as the various types of color blindness (MOS:ACCESS). We had partially implemented a proposal earlier this year, however, it was objected to by a number of people and additional issues were presented that made it evident this wasn't the optimal solution. We tried to come up with other solutions to address the issues related to color contrast, however, none of them gained traction and no consensus was generated.

We need your help and I encourage you to propose your own scale and give feedback on those already listed. Keep in mind that we are NOT making a decision on any individual proposal at this time. We are simply allowing people to make proposals and cultivate them given feedback from other project members. Please visit our project page for additional details. The proposal phase will close no later than December 31st at 23:59 UTC. Noah Talk 03:17, 21 November 2022 (UTC)

La Nina + 2023
I have a question about when we declare that La Nina exists in 2023. Barring some quite random happening in the next few days, The BoM are going to announce that a La Nina exists in 2023 on January 4. As a result, I wonder if it really is worth reverting by  per WP:Crystal.Jason Rees (talk) 00:49, 2 January 2023 (UTC)


 * , IMO we should wait until some agencies publish their own outlooks to take an action, especially JMA and CPC. We shouldn't rely on just one of them in such cases, no matter how obvious they would be. ABC paulista (talk) 01:07, 2 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Hmm... While I can understand waiting until one outlook is issued, it feels like that you're judging things too harshly by requesting that we wait for an outlook from two different centres, before we update the timeline to in effect say that a La Nina persisted into 2023. After all if i remember correctly we are only using 1 source to say that La Nina's existed in previous years.Jason Rees (talk) 02:30, 2 January 2023 (UTC)
 * From what I remember from past discussions, we agreed to blend informations from multiple agencies on such matters. And I feel that's the best course of action for us to not give an undue weigth to one of them. ABC paulista (talk) 02:40, 2 January 2023 (UTC)
 * While we have agreed to blend information from the various agencies, we wouldnt be giving any agency undue weight by declaring that La Nina existed in 2023, based on just the BoM issuing their outlook in the opening days of 2023, when the other 3 agencies were saying that a La Nina would exist in 2023. However, there is no real point discussing this further since both NOAA/IRI and the JMA have just declared in the last 48 hours that a La Nina exists in 2023 which gives us 4 agencies saying that a La Nina exists in 2023.Jason Rees (talk) 17:06, 12 January 2023 (UTC)
 * I agree with your assessment based on the sources that you presented now. ABC paulista (talk) 17:10, 12 January 2023 (UTC)
 * hmm rather surprisingly... That El Nino bell is ringing quite hard.... Jason Rees (talk) 14:21, 13 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Hmm... less than 3 months after I wrote that the El Nino bell is ringing quite hard, we have had formal declarations that El Nino is here from both NOAA/IRI as well as the JMA. This is in addition to the Peru's earlier declaration of a coastal El Nino. As a result, I wonder if you are being a bit too harsh, when you say that your reverting vandalism per WP:CRYSTALBALL and WP:WEIGHT, however, for now i am staying out of it.Jason Rees (talk) 00:45, 13 June 2023 (UTC)
 * , did JMA declared El Niño? If so, it would be more acceptable, but I checked their website a few days ago and didn't find a statement of such. ABC paulista (talk) 02:19, 13 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Yes the JMA have said that El Nino conditions exist in the Pacific, which is the same as what NOAA has said.Jason Rees (talk) 07:54, 13 June 2023 (UTC)
 * , then it's fine by me to add this El Niño on the article. ABC paulista (talk) 16:26, 13 June 2023 (UTC)

Inclusion Criteria for the Caribbean Cup on the Continental football championships article
Greetings,

Your recent edit to Continental football championships prompted me to start a discussion about the criteria for inclusion in that article which I figured I would let you know about as you may wish to weigh in on said discussion.

Cheers,

CONCACAF Championship
The article says, it was folded in 1989. That's the reason i added it under abolished category in the Continental football championships.— Hemant Dabral (📞 • ✒) 16:35, 6 July 2023 (UTC)


 * , that's true but it was recreated as the Gold Cup, and most sources do consider the latter to be a continuation of the former, besides CONCACAF's ambiguous statements on the matter. It isn't that dissimilar of a situation comapared to how the Premier League and Bundesliga succeded the previous leagues on their respective countries, or how the European Cup was rebranded as the Champions' League, for example. Also, one shouldn't use an article to source info for another, per WP:RS and WP:REFLOOP. ABC paulista (talk) 22:33, 6 July 2023 (UTC)

Tropical Depression Wilma
Hi there, can you undo your recent page creation and redirect? You deleted most of the page history by your edits here. Thanks. Hurricanehink mobile (talk) 03:42, 6 August 2023 (UTC)
 * , I didn't create the page. This was its previous title but someone moved it to Tropical Depression Wilma. I just wanted to revert back to its previous name, but it wouldn't let me since the page was already filled with an redirect, so that was the way I found to do it. Instead of, I rather prefer that the page's history is moved to the current one, which I know is possible, but I don't know how to do it. ABC paulista (talk) 03:51, 6 August 2023 (UTC)
 * The proper way to do it, given the past move history of the page, would have been to start a WP:Requested moves discussion. – wbm1058 (talk) 22:47, 17 August 2023 (UTC)

List of tropical cyclones near the Equator
Hey there, I saw you editing the aforementioned list (and I should probably ping so what do you think the list needs to get it to featured list status? ♫ Hurricanehink ( talk )  21:17, 26 March 2024 (UTC)


 * Well I would say that in order to get it to featured list status it should probably have a more comprehensive intro? Perhaps we could explain a little bit more why tropical cyclones typically dont form near the equator? I mean it doesnt have to be super long because this is a list article, and it already talks about it a bit now. Also, what if we added a brief description for each storm on the list? Explaining any notable details about that particular storm in a separate column? With reliable citations of course. This seems like a good way to get it to featured status, right? Undescribed (talk) 01:43, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Hmm, that would be an interesting topic. Vamei, Agni, and Pali are already good articles. If Typhoon Alice (1979) became a good article and the list was featured, then it would be eligible to be a good topic. I agree with your notes about how explaining each storm. These are some of the most unusual examples of tropical cyclogenesis, and goes against what most people are taught about tropical cyclones, that the Coriolis effect is stronger away from the equator. Maybe some background on tropical cyclogenesis in general? Since there are only twelve entries, I agree that each entry could have a description, almost the level of depth you'd have in a typical season article, particularly since a few of them affected land in unusual areas. There's always the option of expanding out to 5º for the storms that formed between 3 and 5º. Or, if there aren't that many more storms, maybe just expand the list to 5º? That's a more round number than 3, which feels a bit arbitrary. ♫ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 02:37, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
 * I'm not well versed into the process of graduating lists and articles to featured status, so I'm not sure if such trivial list could ever achieve it in the first place. But IMO, one topic that could be focused there would be about the mechanisms that led to the formation of each system. Some of them, like westerly wind bursts and Madden–Julian oscillation seem to be recurrent on leading to these oddities. ABC paulista (talk) 02:45, 27 March 2024 (UTC)

Now that it's generated some good discussion, I've moved this discussion to the talk page of the list. Thank you both. ♫ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 02:56, 27 March 2024 (UTC)

Treble - definition regarding national cup
Thanks for the last reply. Looks like we were both prioritizing two different things. I think we can agree that no matter what the consensus is (hopefully with more people involved in the discussion) as to whether these playoffs can be viewed as a national cup, there is no need for the titles to be reverted.

In the case of a consensus NO, I would insist (in the case of a YES, I can only recommend) that the definition of winning the treble be broader with regard to the national cup (actually only for the perspective outside of Europe). Maybe in brackets after it or with a note.

Maybe something like this: Main domestic cup competition for teams from the top-tier league. Or perhaps in a note just about the specific situation in New Zealand in that time (2004-2021). Miria~01 (talk) 18:54, 16 April 2024 (UTC)


 * , maybe the issues were mostly semantical, since it seems that most of the sources use either or  interchangeably, with "national" and "domestic" terms carrying the same meaning. Note that many, if not most, sources presented there use the term, even UEFA. ABC paulista (talk) 21:45, 16 April 2024 (UTC)

Golden Grand Slam
I started a discussion on the talk page of Talk:List of Grand Slam and related tennis records since i feel this is an important issue of censoring. Also, you have done five reverts today on this article so please don't do any more. Fyunck(click) (talk) 19:38, 3 July 2024 (UTC)


 * , my issues with your edits are about WP:POV, WP:OR and WP:COMMONNAME, but I'll elaborate further there. ABC paulista (talk) 21:10, 3 July 2024 (UTC)
