Speedy deletion of Tropical Depression Five-E (2008)
A tag has been placed on Tropical Depression Five-E (2008) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, "See also" section, book reference, category tag, template tag, interwiki link, rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. TheLetterM (talk) 03:22, 26 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Just to let you know, I had a sandbox I was working on for that depression, so I copied my content over. There is still work to be done for the impact section. If you need any help, feel free to ask around. I hope you enjoy contributing to Wikipedia. Cheers, Cyclonebiskit (talk) 03:46, 26 December 2008 (UTC)

Welcome!
Hello there and welcome to the Wikiproject on Tropical Cyclones. I'm sure you already know, but we're a group of editors dedicated to the maintainence, writing, and organization of all Tropical Cyclone related articles. I hope you enjoy editing on Wikipedia and decide to stay. Oh, before I forget, we have an IRC channel (at #wiki-hurricanes) for the quick discussion of TC related topics. Cheers, VX! 05:56, 26 December 2008 (UTC)

Five-E and Fausto pages
Welcome to wikipedia, I would like to let you know that User:Juliancolton has merged Hurricane Fausto (2008). For the article Tropical Depression Five-E (2008), I might file AFD or merge it with the 2008 Pacific hurricane season. Cheers. Leave Message ,Yellow Evan home, User:Yellow Evan/Sandbox
 * The TD Five-E article is long enough to avoid AFD, I just have to finish it. Cyclonebiskit (talk) 16:16, 26 December 2008 (UTC)

File:Paloma 2008 track2.png?
Where did you get the data for, and how did you plot them? It looks like you just used a Paint program to erase the "triangle" data points at the beginning; I can even see that you accidentally erased part of the first "circle" data point. What are those things that you put in over Cuba? Are they supposed to be triangles? Did you place them there manually? -- RattleMan 07:34, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

License tagging for File:TS Lowell1.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:TS Lowell1.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 22:08, 17 January 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for reminding me. HurricaneSpin (talk) 22:14, 17 January 2009 (UTC)

Hurricane Norbert intensity
Please note that the Tropical Cyclone Report has been released for Norbert and it states that the intensity was lowered to 115kts (135mph). Thanks, Cyclonebiskit 22:54, 17 January 2009 (UTC)

That was quick, I was thinking that it's not 130mph... HurricaneSpin (talk) 22:57, 17 January 2009 (UTC)
 * To get rid of that issue, put the winds at 116kts. Cyclonebiskit 22:58, 17 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Thanks. HurricaneSpin (talk) 23:05, 17 January 2009 (UTC)
 * No problem. If you have any other questions just drop a note on my talk page. :) Cyclonebiskit 23:23, 17 January 2009 (UTC)

Re: ???
Which image are you talking about? I have deleted thousands of images. Usually, if the image was moved to Wikimedia Commons by an other user, I link to the new version in my deletion reason. -- lucasbfr  talk 16:47, 22 January 2009 (UTC)

Image tagging for File:TD one-E 1979.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:TD one-E 1979.jpg. You don't seem to have said where the image came from or who created it. We require this information to verify that the image is legally usable on Wikipedia, and because most image licenses require giving credit to the image's creator.

To add this information, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the information to the image's description. If you need help, post your question on Media copyright questions.

Just a note
Just giving you a heads up concerning one of your recent updates to your userpage, there is an ongoing discussion about tropical storms/depressions that don't impact land getting articles (with some exceptions). To avoid possible removal of the article in the future, I would advise not making an article for Iselle. An article for Lowell is welcome, so feel free to make it. Cheers, :) Cyclonebiskit 20:02, 11 March 2009 (UTC)

That is the reason I put Iselle a low chance since I might not find enough information to make a article, Lowell and Odile all have impact on land. Hurricane Typhoon Cyclone 20:06, 11 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Ohh, that's what the percentages mean. I thought that meant how far along with the article you where, my bad. Cyclonebiskit 20:51, 11 March 2009 (UTC)


 * I already started Fausto and Lowell but Fausto has stopped, lowell is going fast. Hurricane Typhoon Cyclone 20:56, 11 March 2009 (UTC)

File copyright problem with File:Paloma 2008 track2.png
Thank you for uploading File:Paloma 2008 track2.png. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously.

Kujira
Just so you know the poor the fair and the goods from are insignifcant milestones in a storms development and are highly discourged for articles. Also for Kujira they were fucked up due to the JTWC Conferences and 50th anniversery last week. Jason Rees (talk) 22:46, 4 May 2009 (UTC)

Your Talk Page Style
Why do you put comments in article talk page comments in between past comments like in Talk:2009 Pacific hurricane season making it, in my opinion "Messed Up." Darren23 12:32, 13 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Everyone do, to reply the old comment or to comment about similar things. I think if someone put it at the bottom is more "Messed Up". HurricaneSpin Talk My contributions 12:54, 13 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Here is my problem with that, when I left a comment in the discussion, I indented it in response to a previous comment, then something weird happened, and I thing it was either because you or someone else moved the preceding comment or my preceding statement in the top. Well, if you think it will be more messed up if people put comments, I think everyone is entitled to their own opinion. Thanks! Darren23 (Contribs) 15:16, 13 June 2009 (UTC)

TD1 article
Please don't work on the article. Someone else is working on it already, and there isn't even a need for the article yet, anyway. It only dissipated a few hours ago, and pretty much the only info on it is already in the season article. ♬♩ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 02:52, 20 June 2009 (UTC)
 * HurricaneSpin, please stop working on the sandbox of the article. I've already done substantial work on it and I'd be quite disappointed to have my work all for not. Thanks, Cyclonebiskit (talk) 03:32, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

Talk:2009 Pacific hurricane season
Please keep discussion on talk pages solely limited to improvements on the article itself. Off-topic posts, including speculation about storm origins, may be removed on-sight. Thank you. – Juliancolton  &#124; Talk 17:02, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

There has been comments about merging Danny, so can you comment on Talk:2009 AHS please?  Darren 23  My Contributions 02:41, 2 September 2009 (UTC)

Article writing
HurricaneSpin, please listen to us when we ask you kindly to stop working on articles. Although you like to write them, they are unnecessary at times, such as an article for Fred and now even a sandbox for a non-existent storm (Grace). If you want to work on some articles constantly, please work on older storms, namely retired ones, that need their articles improved. Cheers, Cyclonebiskit (talk) 13:36, 12 September 2009 (UTC)


 * Could you tell me what storm article is in needed now? (I am not good at writing Wpac since there is too many TCWC to track with) HurricaneSpin Talk My contributions 18:25, 12 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Here catch. Just make sure you get a copyeditor before you publish. Cheers, Good luck, and Happy Editing. Leave Message, Yellow Evan home
 * Yellow Evan, those are much less notable storms, hurricanes on this list need much more attention than any storm you can come up with from the EPac. I urge you, HurricaneSpin, to work on one of the retired hurricanes. Cyclonebiskit (talk) 18:47, 12 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Didn't those already have articles? HurricaneSpin Talk My contributions 18:50, 12 September 2009 (UTC)
 * The retired names need work while the suggested EPac storms don't. It's a good idea to expand some articles instead of creating unnecessary ones. Cyclonebiskit (talk) 18:57, 12 September 2009 (UTC)

Marty
There is no need for Marty right now.  Darren 23  My Contributions 03:35, 18 September 2009 (UTC)


 * Marty is not and will not be needed as it is a non-notable storm. It didn't make landfall and we need to constrict the amount of storms we need to make articles on. Thank you.  Darren 23  My Contributions 23:43, 19 September 2009 (UTC)


 * I can copy/paste it onto the season page. HurricaneSpin Talk My contributions 20:09, 20 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Please don't do what you did to 2009 AHS for Danny. Thank you.  Darren 23 Edits 20:54, 20 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Only put a little in the season, otherwise it'll be way too large, all that's needed is a paragraph. Cyclonebiskit (talk) 20:18, 20 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Oh, by the way, I can't find any source for Socorro Island weather. HurricaneSpin Talk My contributions 20:28, 20 September 2009 (UTC)
 * What about Karina and Nana last year? Why do they get articles? HurricaneSpin Talk My contributions 01:11, 22 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Cause last year wasn't as constricted.  Darren 23 Edits 01:14, 22 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Can I publish it some how if it is the quality of GA? HurricaneSpin Talk My contributions 01:16, 22 September 2009 (UTC)


 * So far, you're articles are not really up to par as the storms created this year for EPAC/ATL excluding Jimena and Danny. Fred was completely redone by and the only reason Danny isn't merged right now is because that CB and Juliancolton are going to rewrite it.

Hurricanes
Helo may I know the reasons you wish to merge the articles? El Johnson (talk) 01:47, 1 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Please read this and the structure of an tropical cyclone article before writing. Also look for other hurricane articles as examples. Thanks. HurricaneSpin Talk 02:03, 1 September 2010 (UTC)


 * I know that they can all be expanded, and they are not FA material right now. Took a look at the link:

1. none are stubs 2. more than one paragraph 3."'Unnamed (including numbered) hurricanes (used for older tropical cyclones in all basins) should be distinguished by location, type, and year. Three naming conventions are acceptable: Galveston Hurricane of 1900, 1928 Okeechobee Hurricane, or Unnamed Hurricane (1975). All unnamed hurricanes should always have a year in the name. Again, create redirects wherever necessary to avoid confusion or duplicate articles.'"

I think your project should do a bit more research when it comes to this, since many of the "unnamed" hurricanes HAVE names. And they are not "location, type, and year" names. Since the 1870ts San Juan had a meteorological observatory, and Havana before that. Still most of the hurricane before that were named and those name were used officially by Government.

4. have infobox 5. has link to wk hurricane in talk page 6.they link to season 7.season links to hurricane 8. are properly categorized

BTW its wiki courtesy to reply to an editor in his/hers talk page, or if you reply in your own as least let them know that you have. El Johnson (talk) 03:35, 1 September 2010 (UTC)


 * Thanks, one of the reasons of coming on strong about the merge proposal is that for the next two weeks I cant dedicate much time to wiki, yet after that I have more than time. Still I see no reason why the articles have to be merged at the moment.  After the next few weeks I will dedicate time to them.  If in a couple of months they are not upgraded then they could be merged if that is the case, of course on a case by case basis.  El Johnson (talk) 04:32, 1 September 2010 (UTC)

2010 Atlantic hurricane season
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period. Additionally, users who perform several reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. When in dispute with another editor you should first try to discuss controversial changes to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. Should that prove unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. If the edit warring continues, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. --Hurricanehink ( talk ) 01:20, 12 September 2010 (UTC)

You have been blocked for three hours for breaking the 3 revert rule. Igor is not officially a hurricane until the NHC says so in the advisory. I will not block the other party, since they were, in good faith, restoring the correct version. Other people can make the adjustment if and when NHC makes the change. --Hurricanehink ( talk ) 01:39, 12 September 2010 (UTC)
