Babe (1977) review
Fixed the ST/factual issue with Babe's formation. I asked Julian, and he's never seen an article where a reference which required navigation pass GA within the TC project. He does understand what you're trying to do with not having so many similar references within the same article, which seems to be a hazard within most storm articles. Personally, I've never passed an article (or seen an article of mine pass GA) which required navigation from the reference to find the actual source. It makes fact checking problematic, which seems to defeat the purpose of using references in the first place. When one or more references are provided at the end of the tornado damage line which supports the text, I'll pass the article. Otherwise, it will fail on the 16th, and you will be free to seek renomination or challenge the failure. Thegreatdr (talk) 15:03, 13 October 2009 (UTC)

PAGASA
Just thought you would like to know: Ondoy and Pepeng are now retired names. Jason Rees (talk) 16:26, 16 October 2009 (UTC)


 * You just had to pose a difficult question to answer didnt u :P - The biggest question is that are they really obvious retirement candidates when we remember what the WMO:Typhoon Committee is like i would say no we leave them as are until January when we find out for certain weather Fengshen has been struck off. Though that said the wording of the email sent to me makes it suggest that they are obvious and will be struck off "Clearly, TS "Ondoy" (Ketsana) and TY "Pepeng" (Parma) will be candidates for retirement." so lets go for it and revert in January if Fengshen is not struck off.

ROCI
Hey, I was just wondering why there is a template for largest hurricanes by gale diameter and not by ROCI? ROCI is the official measurement that is accepted by the scientific community, is it not? Maybe one is in order? It will take some research, but I know several of the top 10 - Ike, Gilbert, Isabel, Floyd, Carla, Mitch, and Wilma (not in that order, however).

It's going to be difficult to get them all down, but I am still having trouble with the idea that Gabrielle had the largest area of gale force winds (there is no doubt that Ike is the largest according to radius of outermost isobars data). For example, the National Climatic Data Center (from the U.S. Dept of Commerce) claims Ike is the largest hurricane on record in the Atlantic, here. They are probably referring to ROCI, but still Ike was so large that it seems unlikely that Gabrielle would be larger, even in gale diameter. Ike's size was more on par with the size of large typhoons, and was around the size of Typhoon Marge, which is one of the largest typhoons ever (2nd or 3rd, after Typhoon Tip of course). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.43.169.0 (talk) 02:55, 5 November 2009 (UTC)

October 2009 North American storm complex
The storm did last a month. Even though it may have affected California for only 5 days, that dosn't mean that it couldn't affect the east coast later on.

Broken Templates
Hey Cyclonebiskit. Thanks for the message. Can you please provide an example article where an infobox template is not functioning? I am guessing that you saw a problem during the two or three minute window when a double redirect had not yet been fixed. I have checked sample transclusions of all the recent weather infobox template moves and all the infoboxes are functioning perfectly. If I made a mistake somewhere in the move, I will fix it, but I after checking I have not seen any problem.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 01:48, 4 December 2009 (UTC)

If I may suggest that you strike out, check mark, or otherwise mark the items I've detailed, that will make it possible for me to see what's been addressed, and you can keep track of what's been done and what still needs to be worked on.

Welcome to the biggest WikiCup Wikipedia has yet seen! Round one will take place over two months, and finish on February 26. There is only one pool, and the top 64 will progress. The competition will be tough, as more than half of the current competitors will not make it to round 2. Details about scoring have been finalized and are explained at WikiCup/Scoring. Please make sure you're familiar with the scoring rules, because any submissions made that violate these rules will be removed. Like always, the judges can be reached through the WikiCup talk pages, on their talk page, or over IRC with any issues concerning anything tied to the Cup. We will keep in contact with you via weekly newsletters; if you do not want to receive them, please remove yourself from the list here. Conversely, if a non-WikiCup participant wishes to receive the newsletters, they may add themselves to that list. Well, enough talk- get writing! Your submission's page is located here. Details on how to submit your content is located here, so be sure to check that out! Once content has been recognized, it can be added to your submissions page, from which our bot will update the main score table. Remember that only articles worked on and nominated during the competition are eligible for points. Have fun, and good luck! Garden, iMatthew, J Milburn, and The ed17 19:18, 31 December 2009 (UTC)

My article
Hello there. i saw you added some numbers to my article on Alpha, and i'm assuming it's metric unuts, since it says km and whatnot. basically, do we have to include them?

also, I've seen your name in some other page histories, so i was wondering if you'd know what "1600Z" means. i saw it in the best track, and I was confused what it meant. i'm assuming some sort of time, but i thought i'd ask someone else.

WikiCup 2010 January newsletter
We are half way through round one of the WikiCup. We've had some shakeups regarding late entries, flag changes and early dropouts, but the competition is now established- there will be no more flag changes or new competitors. Congratulations to, our current leader, who, at the time of writing, has more listed points than and   (second and third place respectively) combined. A special well done also goes to - his artcle Jewel Box (St. Louis, Missouri) was the first content to score points in the competition.

Around half of competitors are yet to score. Please remember to submit content soon after it is promoted, so that the judges are able to review entries. 64 of the 149 current competitors will advance to round 2- if you currently have no points, do not worry, as over half of the current top 64 have under 50 points. Everyone needs to get their entries in now to guarantee their places in round 2! If you are concerned that your nomination will not receive the necessary reviews, and you hope to get it promoted before the end of the round, please list it on WikiCup/Reviews. However, please remember to continue to offer reviews at GAC, FAC and all the other pages that require them to prevent any backlogs which could otherwise be caused by the Cup. As ever, questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup and the judges are reachable on their talk pages, by email or on IRC. Good luck!
