MA COVID article
I saw that you added that MA has started reporting recoveries. Where are you seeing that data? GorillaWarfare (talk) 02:26, 6 June 2020 (UTC)

COVID-19 pandemic in the United States
Your drive-by AWB edit on COVID-19 pandemic in the United States killed all of the graphs in that article. Please have a look at what you did. Please take more care next time; you do not improve the encyclopedia by what was obviously an edit made without any care or attention whatsoever. --Tagishsimon (talk) 00:17, 14 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Oh, sorry I guess I didn't scroll through all of the text to see what happened. I'll carefully scan the text next time to see if anything got messed up and manually fix it. --Qwerty325 (talk) 02:13, 14 November 2020 (UTC)

Linfa
I understand your instincts to make sure the recent Tropical Storm Linfa had an article. Because the storm was one of several to affect Vietnam, there was a (brief) discussion to merge Linfa with an article about the floods in general, and not just the specific storm. I just wanted you to be aware of this, since I saw you revert the history of the storm (which again, I totally get given how notable the storm was). Do you think Linfa should be independent of the article on 2020 Central Vietnam floods? ♫ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 20:41, 17 November 2020 (UTC)
 * The thing is that Linfa did not cause the 190+ deaths in Vietnam and Cambodia. The monsoonal trough that merged with and absorbed Linfa caused most of the flooding in Vietnam. The flood article, 2020 Central Vietnam floods, is hurricane flood article mentions the monsoon, which was enhanced by Linfa, Nangka, Ofel, etc. Thus, the flood typhoon flood article better conveys the impacts to the readers, and adds readers to other storms that not only affected Vietnam. Nangka was not merged because of the 2 deaths it caused in China. Also trout, trout me trout thanks. ~ Destroyeraa 🌀 22:13, 17 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Yes; I absolutely think it would be best to make it a separate article independent of 2020 Central Vietnam floods, given the notability of the storm and how much damage it caused. Most storms causing similar amounts of damage have a separate article. However, I can see why editors would want to merge the article, given several storms affected the area. I think it would be best to make the article a Draft namespace, since it needs to be worked on. It can be worked on over some time and fixed up as a Draft and then be published. I don't see the harm in it having its own article. Qwerty325 (talk) 22:17, 17 November 2020 (UTC)
 * I'm open to a draft. trout draft. draft. ~ Destroyeraa 🌀 22:21, 17 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Problem is draft already exists as a redirect to the page, so I can't currently move the page to a draft. I have requested a move to the Draft but it'll probably take some time for it to be moved. Qwerty325 (talk) 02:35, 18 November 2020 (UTC)

Usagi
Why you consider Tropical Storm Usagi (2018) as not ready? Tropical Storm Higos (2020) is mostly copied from the season article and to this day hasn't came back into the draftspace.  SMB9 9thx   my edits  08:07, 18 November 2020 (UTC)
 * It doesn't seem complete. While the lead and meteorological history are sufficient, the "Preparations and impacts" section is almost empty. It, in my opinion, would be best to leave it as a draft for a few days and find and add more information. Then it would be more ready for publish. Or, another alternative is to leave a "This section needs expansion" template in the section. I'm good with either one. Qwerty325 (talk) 13:18, 18 November 2020 (UTC)
 * I prefer to leave a "This section needs expansion" template rather than moving that back into draftspace.  SMB9 9thx   my edits  23:40, 18 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Ok, fine with me! Qwerty325 (talk) 23:45, 18 November 2020 (UTC)

Wikipedia:WikiProject Tropical cyclones/Acceptable sources
Hi! I've reverted your edit on WikiProject Tropical cyclones/Acceptable sources since I felt like the comment would not be enough to get a discussion started on whether or not Jim Cantore would be allowed on the page. Instead of leaving a comment, which likely won't be seen by anyone, make a thread on Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Tropical cyclones about why the mentioned person should be included. This way other editors can contribute with their ideas as well. Thanks! -- Chlod (say hi!) 01:28, 24 November 2020 (UTC)
 * No problem! I started the discussion on the talk page. Thanks! Qwerty   325  01:32, 24 November 2020 (UTC)

2020–21 North American winter
If you want to add the lake effect snow on the 2020–21 North American winter then you can. Cwater1 (talk) 02:01, 27 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Ok I will try to do that tomorrow. I think we should create an "Events" section and add the current section as a subsection and then add a section for November. Qwerty   325  02:03, 27 November 2020 (UTC)

User:HurricaneCovid/Meteorological history of Hurricane Zeta
Hey, I saw you're working on an article for Zeta's met history. Given how short the main article is, I don't think there needs to be an article for just the met history, but I know everyone would appreciate if you could expand the existing MH in the main article. It's only two paragraphs right now. ♫ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 14:31, 1 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Ok; I can use the advisory archives and expand the met history section on the main article Qwerty   325  17:51, 1 December 2020 (UTC)

your signature
Is it meant to be HurricaneCovid (coNRIBS) or HurricaneCovid (contribs). I don't mind if you don't change it, because that means I get some ribs and im happy! Cyclone  Toby  contribs 12:42, 2 December 2020 (UTC)
 * It is meant to be HurricaneCovid (contribs). I have to fix that. Thanks for telling me! Hurricane   Covid  (conribs) 13:33, 2 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Yes, it's fixed now. Again, thanks for the reminder! Hurricane   Covid  (contribs) 13:35, 2 December 2020 (UTC)

Zeta 2020
Stop vandalizing the Zeta 2020 and 2020 Atlantic Article that map is only preliminary we need to wait for TCRs first. Doge1941 (talk) 18:16, 2 December 2020 (UTC)
 * a) The NHC has published the map with the correct wind speeds and we always use the NHC for Atlantic hurricanes and b) The edits were made in good faith and were taken from an official source and therefore isn't vandalism. Hurricane   Covid  (contribs) 18:19, 2 December 2020 (UTC)
 * However, you can use the newly made summary published by the NHC which puts Zeta at 110 (linked on Destroyeraa's talk page) but please avoid calling good faith edits vandalism. Hurricane   Covid  (contribs) 18:21, 2 December 2020 (UTC)

Those weren't "good faith" edits those numbers were preliminary Doge1941 (talk) 18:23, 2 December 2020 (UTC)

So therefore it counts as vandalism since those weren't fully official numbers. Doge1941 (talk) 18:23, 2 December 2020 (UTC)
 * "Good faith" means when you make an edit with a good intention, not whether or not the information is correct or not. It is considered "vandalism" when you have a bad intention and purposely insert incorrect information. Please see WP:AGF. And also, numbers from the NHC are official numbers. Hurricane   Covid  (contribs) 18:26, 2 December 2020 (UTC)

ok I believe you had good faith but refrain from putting PRELIMINARY numbers. Doge1941 (talk) 18:30, 2 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Ok, we'll just use the monthly summary until the TCR for each individual system comes in sometime in February or the spring. Hurricane   Covid  (contribs) 18:34, 2 December 2020 (UTC)

Your edits
Hey there! I saw you've been editing a lot lately, and I hope you keep that enthusiasm up, even after the busy season has ended. I'm curious what kind of Wikipedia articles you're interested in writing. I saw you've been working on the 2020-21 North American winter article, which makes sense as we approach winter. I just was curious if you were interested in working in any other tropical cyclone articles, whether newer or older ones, or perhaps List of New England hurricanes - I saw you're from Massachusetts, and that list article needs a lot of work (including citations and checking for storms that might be missing). ♫ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 21:21, 8 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Alright, sure – I can do that! Hurricane   Covid  (contribs) 00:42, 9 December 2020 (UTC)

Trouted
You have been trouted for: When you created Draft: Early December 2020 nor'easter, you said it was November 4-7, when it was really December 4-7. HurricaneTracker495 (talk) 19:12, 11 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Oh, oops sorry I missed that. I'll be more careful when doing dates next time. Hurricane   Covid  (contribs) 22:30, 11 December 2020 (UTC)

A brownie for you!

 * Thank you for the brownie! Hurricane   Covid  (contribs) 13:09, 23 December 2020 (UTC)

 * Wow, I don't even know what to say! Thank you so much for the three barnstars! I personally don't think I deserved all three at once, but if you think otherwise, then I'm happy.

My new sig
Hey HurricaneCovid! What color do you think my text shadow in my signature to be? I tried silver and grey, but those didn't work out, and black is boring. I'm trying out blue, but I just wanted to see if you have any recommendations. 🏅🌀 𝕾𝖚𝖕𝖊𝖗 𝕮𝖞𝖈𝖑𝖔𝖓𝖎𝖈 𝕾𝖙𝖔𝖗𝖒 𝕮𝖔𝖗𝖔𝖓𝖆 🌀🏅 15:16, 9 February 2021 (UTC)
 * If you're going to keep the color of the text green, then I think blue is the best. I tested out orange, yellow, green, red, and purple and none of those worked out too well. You could also change the color of the text and then test out some different shadows, but if the text is green, then blue is the best. Cheers, Hurricane   Covid  (contribs) 15:45, 9 February 2021 (UTC)

A question
67.189.171.184 has recently made an edit to the next edition of The Frozen Times, claiming they were you. Is the IP really true? -Shift674-🌀contribs 18:59, 3 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Yes, that IP is actually me. Sometimes I need to edit from a public computer, and I hate the idea of logging in on a public computer, so I edit logged out instead. Hurricane   Covid  (contribs) 19:09, 3 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks for clarifying. -Shift674-🌀contribs 19:10, 3 March 2021 (UTC)

 * Thank you for the barnstar, Shift! (Can I call you Shift please?) Also I don't think you're particularly late; I only started working on it a week and a half ago. Also, it's better late than never! Hurricane   Covid  (contribs) 19:11, 3 March 2021 (UTC)


 * Yes, you can call me Shift. I thought you started working on the issue earlier, though! -Shift674-🌀contribs 19:16, 3 March 2021 (UTC)


 * Nah, I started working on it either on February 23 or 24 (I can't remember lol). Anyway, thanks again for the barnstar! Hurricane   Covid  (contribs) 19:19, 3 March 2021 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

 * Thank you so much for the barnstar! I probably should have thanked you earlier though; sorry. (Also I like the new signature!) Also, I'm kinda thinking of renaming myself to "Nor'easterCovid" or "WinterStormCovid" but those don't sound as good as HurricaneCovid, so im keeping it that lol.

 * Thank you so much for the barnstar! I probably should have thanked you earlier though; sorry. It's fine! No worries! I like the new signature! Thanks! I changed it because so many people were complaining about how my signature was illegible and bright and all that. Also, I'm kinda thinking of renaming myself to "Nor'easterCovid" or "WinterStormCovid" but those don't sound as good as HurricaneCovid, so im keeping it that lol. XD, yeah you should stick with HurricaneCovid. Or do WinterCycloneCovid, IDK. Maybe even Winter Cyclonic Storm Covid. Nah, that would be WAY to similar to my username. ~ 🌀    SCS CORONA     🌀 17:15, 12 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Actually, I like the sound of "Winter Cyclonic Storm Covid" or "Super Winter Storm Covid". But as you said, that would be too similar to your username, so I'm just keeping it as HurricaneCovid. Hurricane   Covid  (contribs) 17:43, 13 March 2021 (UTC)

Query about move
Hello, HurricaneCovid,

What was up with this edit? Why did you move February 9–11, 2017 North American blizzard to February 9–11, 2021 North American blizzard? Please do not move established articles to new titles without discussing it on the article talk page. Your error would have been quickly caught before the move occurred. Liz Read! Talk! 00:16, 30 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Oh, sorry. Someone had moved it to "February 9-11, 2017 Blizzard" without the "North American" and I wanted to move it to "February 9–11, 2017 North American blizzard". However, I accidentally said "2021". Very sorry for that. 🌀 Hurricane Covid 🌀 (contribs) 12:05, 30 March 2021 (UTC)

Duplicate parm error on Template:WikiProject Weather
Hi HurricaneCovid. This edit caused a duplicate HOOK_ASSESS parm error, which is causing havoc on Category:Pages using duplicate arguments in template calls. Davemck (talk) 19:24, 6 May 2021 (UTC)

Hi HurricaneCovid. After reviewing your request for "rollbacker", I have&#32;temporarily [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=rights&user=&page=User%3AHurricaneCovid enabled] rollback on your account&#32;until 2021-06-18. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback: If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Administrators' guide/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! Anarchyte ( talk ) 06:53, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
 * Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
 * Rollback should never be used to edit war.
 * If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
 * Use common sense.

You rolled back my edit of the page for Halston Sage saying that I was "vandalizing" the page. Which I was not! I was merely updating it to reflect the fact that the television show "Prodigal Son" was cancelled and concluded its run in 2021. Currently Halston Sage's page indicates that the show is still on the air, which it is not.


 * The edit was marked as vandalism on Recent Changes, and a few other experienced editors had reverted the exact same edit as vandalism. Now that I see your explanation, I understand. My apologies. From now on, please use the edit summary to describe your edits, so we do not see the edits as vandalism. This way, your edits won't be misunderstood again. Thanks. ~ 🌀 Hurricane Covid 🌀 15:54, 3 June 2021 (UTC)

Trouted
You have been trouted for: You stated I was vandalizing Wikipedia when I was only correcting misinformation: Yuuki Kaji does not voice Hidenori. He voices Megane. Hidenori is voiced by Tomokazu Sugita. 67.81.20.124 (talk) 17:55, 2 June 2021 (UTC)
 * Oh, my apologies. Your edits were marked as "bad faith" in Recent Changes, so I thought they were vandalism. You may go restore your edits if you would like. ~ 🌀 Hurricane Covid 🌀 19:00, 2 June 2021 (UTC)
 * HurricaneCovid, was the assessment in SRC the only reason you reverted the edit? I made that mistake in the past, please actually look at the diff. See this for the complaints I recieved. ~~ 🌀𝚂𝙲𝚂 𝙲𝙾𝚁𝙾𝙽𝙰🌀 19:21, 3 June 2021 (UTC)
 * Actually I did click on the diff before reverting, as I usually do. It appeared to be vandalism when I clicked on the diff and so I reverted it. Without an edit summary, sometimes an edit can appear as vandalism even when it isn't, as what happened here. ~ 🌀 Hurricane Covid 🌀 19:38, 3 June 2021 (UTC)
 * Well, another tip I've found handy is that if you're not sure if an edit is vandalism, then ignore it, someone else will take care of it. ~~ 🌀𝚂𝙲𝚂 𝙲𝙾𝚁𝙾𝙽𝙰🌀 12:40, 4 June 2021 (UTC)
 * Ok. Sounds good. Thanks! ~ 🌀 Hurricane Covid 🌀 13:37, 4 June 2021 (UTC)

Hello there. I would first like to mention that that your edits to the Timeline of the 2021 Atlantic hurricane season are greatly appreciated. However, when you cite and article, always put the name of the author in. For example, if I am citing the first advisory of Tropical Depression Nine, instead of putting, I would put. Thank you.

The UP Michigan Winter Storm
Hey! I saw you removed the winter storm on notability reasons. As I was about to open a talk page discussion about it, an IP editor reverted. I think it is notable due to the more than forecasted snowfalls observed plus regional record colds set. The cold wave made it down to Florida today as confirmed by Ryan Maue, former chief of NOAA. Now, I am really concerned that this IP editor (for sure IP hopping as myself and USM have dealt with at least 2 editors who love to jump from IP to IP and one of them loves to mention temperature things on every article, even like tornado articles) is adding every dang city that had a record low set. I went ahead and added a cleanup tag, to hopefully alert that editor, but it is almost pointless since by tomorrow, they will be on a new IP. I just wanted to let you know all that information so you don’t get too annoyed with the IP editor reverting you. Basically, it is a notable “significant early season winter storm” as described by NWS, but I do agree that not every city needs to be mentioned. Elijahandskip (talk) 15:07, 20 October 2022 (UTC)
 * I should’ve fixed everything. --170.24.150.113 (talk) 18:18, 20 October 2022 (UTC)
 * The problem isn't the implementation; the event itself does not meet notability criteria. Similar systems occur quite frequently and snow in the UP of Michigan isn't anything new. ~ 🌀 Hurricane Covid 🌀 20:59, 20 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Compromise: added to seasonal summary. Not notable enough for a section, but the information should be covered somewhere, and similar events are in the seasonal summary. 4.26.33.34 (talk) 21:23, 20 October 2022 (UTC)
 * I will definitely say, however, it has a lot of coverage, and at bare minimum should be in the seasonal summary. It shouldn’t be totally removed. 4.26.33.34 (talk) 21:28, 20 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Sounds good. I would shorten it a bit; this much space for even a single large storm is a bit much for the summary. ~ 🌀 Hurricane Covid 🌀 21:29, 20 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 02:36, 21 November 2022 (UTC)

Please stop adding legacy colored maps. It’s better to have no map than to have maps that violate consensus. I took them out for a reason. Jasper Deng (talk) 22:49, 7 September 2023 (UTC)
 * From the reader's perspective, it is better to have a map with legacy colors than none at all. I'll stop adding the legacy-colored maps for now though. ~ Hiking  Hurricane  (contribs) 22:54, 7 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Not when it's confusing, especially as the small infobox has no map key.--Jasper Deng (talk) 22:58, 7 September 2023 (UTC)
 * True. I'll try to get as many of the path files as I can made tonight so they can be put in the infoboxes. ~ Hiking  Hurricane  (contribs) 23:02, 7 September 2023 (UTC)
