 * This and the tropical storm list will honestly be the worst to finish as they are much more common than the other Categories. I hope to get a decent amount done in the coming days. Thanks for the review. Noah Talk 21:08, 14 January 2019 (UTC)

List articles
Hey Figfires, not sure if you saw my post on the project talk page about list articles for certain areas. I was wondering if there was an article that doesn't have a list for a certain area that you'd be interested in writing. I could help with how to format it, but it's a fairly easy type of article to write. It seems like you're interested in Pacific tropical cyclones - there are lists for Arizona, New Mexico, Califoria, Hawaii, and Baja California, leaving open Nevada, the remaining Pacific coastal states, and Central America (which will also have to include Atlantic storms to be comprehensive. If you do a good job, you might even get it featured on the main page of Wikipedia! Several of my articles have been on the main page, and I gotta tell you, it's an amazing feeling of pride, knowing that thousands of people will read something you wrote. ♫ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 19:39, 8 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Well... for one thing, I do want to have a list for Ohio since I live there. I have experienced the remnants of several hurricanes (Gordon and Florence are two this year). I could write up a list for Central America. I figured it could be divided between EPAC and ATL. Figfires Send me a message! 19:51, 8 December 2018 (UTC)
 * I know offhand a few significant tropical cyclones in Ohio (Agnes and Ike). If you want to do Ohio, I'd recommend doing the entire Ohio Valley (Tennessee, Kentucky, West Virginia, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois). It sounds like a lot, but you're going to get almost all of the same inland tropical cyclones that affect Ohio as the other ones. That's by the very nature of tropical cyclone tracks. It takes a lot for a storm hitting the east coast to produce rainfall as far west as Ohio (usually a cold front steers the storms northward). For the east coast landfalls that affect Ohio, it would also likely affect West Virginia, such as Hurricane Sandy, which produced snowfall in West Virginia and Ohio, or Hurricane Agnes, which produced rainfall in both states. Compare those storms to a Gulf Coast landfall like Hurricane Juan, which produced rainfall in all of the states in the Ohio Valley. If you decide to only to storms in Ohio, you'll find those storms here when a storm in the right column says , OH. You can use that same resource for other states. There might not be a lot of storms that have information about their effects in Ohio, given how far inland it is, but there's no harm in doing that research. I just know that when I write something, I want to make sure I'm not wasting my time (like an edit-conflict, or when I start writing an article that wasn't needed after all). ♫ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 20:15, 8 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Alright... thanks. Im working on Central America first. Also, I didn't know if you were aware or not, but there a couple GANs without reviewers if you would be interested. Figfires Send me a message! 20:21, 8 December 2018 (UTC)
 * I reviewed Hurricane Olivia (2018). Also, with Central America, there are so many storms over the years. It might be easier to go one country at a time. Not too many storms have affected Costa Rica from either Atlantic or Pacific. Also, storms rarely affect Nicaragua from the Pacific, but more often from the Atlantic. El Salvador tends to get the inland effects of hurricane landfalls on the Caribbean side, and same with Honduras, while Hurricane Mitch was a notable landfall from the north. Belize often gets hit directly because of its location in the Gulf of Honduras. Guatemala doesn't often get struck, but it's from storms on both Atlantic and Pacific coasts. ♫ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 20:50, 8 December 2018 (UTC)

Hey there, I saw you're still working on List of Category 1 Pacific hurricanes. Good job keeping at it! List articles can be arduous and time consuming, but you get a real sense of pride when you're done. Best of luck finishing. At a certain point, you just build momentum, and you end up thinking about finishing the list when you're off wiki. Or at least I do. ♫ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 02:43, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
 * I edited for 9 hours straight once to finish the Cat 2 list. Noah Talk 02:50, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
 * That's... really dedicated and bad for your eyes :P And I've probably had some all day editing sessions too. Make sure you take time to rest. Doctors recommend the 20/20/20 rule. For every 20 minutes, focus your eyes on something 20 feet away for 20 seconds. That will reduce eye strain, which might not affect you now, but will affect generations of people staring at screens too long (so basically everyone under 80). Happy editing though! ♫ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 17:46, 2 February 2019 (UTC)

"Correct sampling time"...
...is pretty meaningless when it comes to distinguishing the gust values, since both agencies use 3-second gusts. 1- versus 10-minute "sampling time" is a meaningless notion here, and is not what is meant by 1- or 10-minute sustained winds. We've always listed gusts last, and I see no reason whatsoever to change this convention. --Jasper Deng (talk) 06:52, 24 February 2019 (UTC)
 * If they are both indeed 3 second gusts, why are they different? In theory, they should be the same number as they are the same measurement period. The sustained winds are averages of measurements taken over 1 minute by JTWC and 10 minutes by JMA. My only guess is JMA uses 3 second gusts on a 10 minute scale. The difference in gust values seemed to be about 17.5% for the agreed upon peak intensity. This topic obviously needs discussion as gusts vary between the two agencies. Noah Talk 13:34, 24 February 2019 (UTC)
 * "On a 10 minute scale" is nothing but meaningless hand waving. The values are different because their estimates for sustained winds for a given T-number is different. The rule of thumb is that gusts are 40% more than 10-minute sustained winds. In turn, the accepted conversion factor between 1- and 10-minute sustained winds is almost the same as that from knots to mph. From this, we see that they really aren't agreeing on the actual intensity. It's pretty simple and we don't need to elaborate.--Jasper Deng (talk) 20:54, 24 February 2019 (UTC)

Re: Web archive template
Are you referring to Template:Webarchive? If so, then no, I will not add a language template. It is used over 300,000 times, and none of them currently have the language, and for good reason. You can already add that into Template:Cite web with archiveurl= and archivedate=. You can just add the language as language=. ♫ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 22:57, 13 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Thanks... Do you know where to find archived prognostic data for JTWC? Btw... I am going outside my comfort zone to create an article ;) Noah Talk 23:03, 13 March 2019 (UTC)
 * If you're working on Idai (which I hope you are, easy ITN candidate), then you should know that the JTWC doesn't do prognostic data for storms outside of the WPAC. They usually include that prognostic data in the advisories. That being said, I can't find a good advisory for the JTWC archives. Maybe Jason Rees would know? BTW, the RSMC for the SWIO is Meteo-France. Here is their archive of advisories for Idai (assuming that's the storm you were talking about). ♫ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 23:31, 13 March 2019 (UTC)

 * No... I was using the advisories that were in French because I can read it lol. Noah Talk 23:40, 13 March 2019 (UTC)
 * That's awesome, and useful too! It's been a pain using Google to translate French sources while I've been working a list for all cyclones in the Mascarene Islands (Réunion, Mauritius, and Rodrigues), which are affected much more regularly than Mozambique. ♫ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 00:01, 14 March 2019 (UTC)

March 2019
I noticed that a message you recently left to Livia Dutra may have been unduly harsh. Please remember not to bite the newcomers. If you see others making a common mistake, consider politely pointing out what they did wrong and showing them how to correct it. It takes more time, but it helps us retain new editors. Thank you.  I Need Support  :3 15:36, 28 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Sorry if it came across that way, but if you look in the edit history, she was simply reverting and re-adding her content without giving anyone a chance to "accept" her edits. In this case, that warning was needed as she could have simply gotten herself blocked if she continued. Considering she already read and understood the revert reasons, it really wasn't all that harsh as the warning simply asked her to discuss on the talk page rather than simply revert and informed her that she could be blocked if she continued. She needs to know that she can be blocked for doing what she did. It's better to state this outright with policies linked than to type a fancy message that may not even get the full point across.

Rollback granted
Hi Hurricane Noah. After reviewing your request for "rollbacker", I have [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=rights&user=&page=User%3AHurricane_Noah enabled] rollback on your account. 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! ~ Amory  (u • t • c) 23:24, 28 March 2019 (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.

Re-opened your ITN nom
Dear Hurricane Noah,

I've re-opened the nom for Cyclone Kenneth on ITN (by supporting the blurb), as I believe the event is notable. See for example, the link I provided within my reasons.

 * Im solely basing this on size. Based on the current trend, there will likely be 12-20 more TSs by the time 2020 is over. This TS list would be more than double the size of the Cat 2 list (likely 100-120k), minus the detailed climatology and background. Probably 165-180 on this list alone.

Awards/gems
I don’t know what you have in mind for the project awards. You should develop your idea. Here are my thoughts. Maybe reward points similar to the WikiCup? I.e. points for featured articles or good articles. I’m not suggesting any sort of system to benefit myself, either. I think it would be a fun way to track trophies/gems, like a green gem (emerald?) for a GA, and Opal/Azurite for FA. I think the project reward system could be a fun way for people to proudly display their FAs/GAs/FLs. Also honor number of edits to an article... idk, how else could we gameify editing... Something with the season articles? Adding a source? Idk. What do you think? Hurricanehink mobile (talk) 01:23, 17 May 2019 (UTC)

A points system would work best for general awards. I have a list of up to 25 gems in order of rarity that could be used as levels. Points could then determine the level of gem given. Additionally, there could be awards given out based on having a certain number of GAs, FAs, FLs, etc.. and possibly awards granted by a selection committee (similar to how some other wikipedia awards work). <span style="white-space:nowrap;text-shadow:#009200 0.3em 0.4em 1.0em,#009200 -0.2em -0.2em 1.0em;color:#009200">Noah Talk 01:35, 17 May 2019 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/1900 Galveston hurricane/archive1
Hello, Hurricane Noah. I noticed you left some comments on the FAC for the 1900 Galveston hurricane. I want to ask for some clarification about one of those comments. The one in question is this: "Watch your significant figures. Some values need more places and others less." Am I right in assuming that you want me to take another look at how I'm rounding the units of measure? If this is correct, I might be willing to do that. However, I noticed that you didn't exactly do that with Carlotta and neither myself nor anyone else mentioned that in the FAC for Carlotta. Please correct me if I misinterpreted your comment. Thanks for commenting, by the way--12george1 (talk) 19:40, 2 June 2019 (UTC)
 * No wait, I think I see what you're talking about. You mean like how I have 17 ft (5 m) in one sentence and 17 ft (5.2 m) in another sentence?--12george1 (talk) 19:46, 2 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Yes... 17 has 2 sig figs, so it should be 5.2 in the conversion. In other places, you have too many sig figs. All has to do with the official rules set by the people who maintain the SI unit thingamajigger. I found out in Chemistry 1100 and Physics 1201 that rounded off values are incorrect. When converting from imperial to metric, you multiply by a number (every inch is 2.54 cm for example). The number with the least sig figs determines the number of sig figs in the converted value. Please note that exact numbers do not follow sig fig rules and therefore have indefinite significant figures (examples are 12 in = 1 ft or 100 years in a century). <span style="white-space:nowrap;text-shadow:#009200 0.3em 0.4em 1.0em,#009200 -0.2em -0.2em 1.0em;color:#009200">Noah Talk 22:50, 2 June 2019 (UTC)

Re: Awards
First off, congrats on Carlotta passing, and good luck on Rosa. I’ll review after I’ve finished a review for 1900 Galveston (need to do spot checks).

As for the awards, you still have some rare/common elements that would work for the awards, like Gold, Silver, Platinum, Nickel, Copper, Iron, Silicon, Yttrium, Darmstadtium, Meitnerium, etc. (kinda kidding about last two, but maybe pick a really obscure element). Or I guess if we’re being technical, maybe it should be the elements that make up the atmosphere, so Nitrogen, Oxygen, Argon, Carbon Dioxide, Hydrogen, Neon, Helium, etc. What do you think would work? Hurricanehink mobile (talk) 13:19, 6 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Rosa has been withdrawn and archived as there were some serious issues that I more or less read over when I looked at it. Apparently, the issues are so bad they would warrant a good article reassessment if not fixed. Sometimes you miss the flaws in your own work or don't catch when others make changes. As for the awards, I don't know how the atmosphere ones would work, but that could be interesting. <span style="white-space:nowrap;text-shadow:#009200 0.3em 0.4em 1.0em,#009200 -0.2em -0.2em 1.0em;color:#009200">Noah Talk 14:13, 6 June 2019 (UTC)

Hi there Noah. I was wondering if you would be able to have a read through of the article on Cyclone Nora that I wrote.

Congrats and great work for getting another list done! I’ll review it for FLC when I get a chance. I’m really surprised and proud that you’ve done so well sticking to that set of articles. Just another few hundred storms to add for the next sandbox? No pressure, you’ll do fine 😜 Hurricanehink mobile (talk) 12:32, 17 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Actually, it is slightly less than the one I just nominated. However, the 1949–1979 one will be over 15% larger than the one I just nominated, but you won't be able to tell byte-wise due to lack of TCRs. I will create the main article once these child articles are all done so I can make summary sections for each one. The pre-1949 TSs and landfalls will be the only ones appearing in table format on the main article. <span style="white-space:nowrap;text-shadow:#009200 0.3em 0.4em 1.0em,#009200 -0.2em -0.2em 1.0em;color:#009200">Noah Talk 14:35, 17 June 2019 (UTC)
 * By main article, what sort of title were you thinking? List of Pacific hurricanes by intensity? You could save the time and just make it part of Pacific hurricane. Granted, that could also include off-season storms and retired storms. The article is start-class, sure, but it's well-cited, and mostly it's just disorganized. Just an idea, not sure how you're planning to cap off this epic project, but it's exciting that it's almost done! Really good work all around :) ♫ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 15:38, 20 June 2019 (UTC)
 * By main article, I meant "List of Eastern Pacific tropical storms"... just a main article in terms of tropical storms. Also, for the list I just started, I didn't list any deaths for TS Elida '96 since the source is not working. The title says "Hurricane Marty" on the reference which makes me doubt it. The main page for the data site is archived, but I can't get past that. The 6 deaths simply are unverifiable. Anyways, I am looking forward to your review for the 2000–present list. <span style="white-space:nowrap;text-shadow:#009200 0.3em 0.4em 1.0em,#009200 -0.2em -0.2em 1.0em;color:#009200">Noah Talk 16:40, 20 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Do you think such an article is needed? I imagine it would be more of a dab page. As for Elida, the reference in question is { {EM-DAT}} . I think it lists Marty because the reference was used on the Marty article. It's basically a worldwide disaster database. They restricted access, but someone in the project might have access. ? ? ♫ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 18:10, 20 June 2019 (UTC)

 * Yeah, Hink is correct here re: Elida. YE Pacific Hurricane 20:39, 20 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Yes, the article is needed. It will provide the full background and climatology, overview sections for all the lists, and information on all the landfalls. Additionally, I plan on the article having the pre-1949 storms on it unless you think that should be separate. <span style="white-space:nowrap;text-shadow:#009200 0.3em 0.4em 1.0em,#009200 -0.2em -0.2em 1.0em;color:#009200">Noah Talk 17:21, 21 June 2019 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure the pre-1949 storms should be included, since it won't be verified whether they are tropical storms or hurricanes, or just tropical cyclones of unknown intensity. I have wondered about a singular list of the storms before the official database, such as in the Atlantic. I'm not sure if such a list is needed - after all, there's no way it could ever be complete. I don't think the people at Good/Featured Topic would oppose if the lists were limited to the official database. That being said, I suppose you could do a singular article for just EPAC tropical storms, but I still think you could include all of that, including climatology and background, in the parent article Pacific hurricane. ♫ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 15:23, 26 June 2019 (UTC)

Season effects table for Australian region
Hi again Noah. The reason I developed a new table for the season effects section of the Australian region is because the current one has several issues. Firstly, most storms usually take up more than one line which makes the table unnecessarily long, especially when there are 20 to 30 systems per year, many of which are only tropical lows. The first thing which needs to be changed is units being included in the columns. It is a scientific convention of tables that the name of the unit should be only included in the title row of each column, and numbers only in the actual data cells (like what is done in the hurricane season tables). AUD really is not needed in the table, as Australia is not the only country in the region, and any Australian dollar damage totals can simply be mentioned in-text in order to save space in the table. Several of the column titles can also be streamlined to save space. It is also really archaic and unnecessary to be using inches of mercury in that table. Hectopascals is completely sufficient. I am fine with mph still being included as it is used in several countries, but inHg just wastes space. Again, it is fine for inHg to be included in-text in the article sections, but where space is at a premium in the season effects table, I think it should be left out. References also should not need to be included in the table, as all the information in that table has already been referenced in the article sections, and duplicate references are not required. If they absolutely must be included (which really they should not), the reference column does not need a title, as again this often takes up more horizontal space than the references themselves, making it more likely that a given storm would take up more lines than needed in the table. Additionally, the current template is an absolute nightmare to edit in Visual Editor. It often takes 5 seconds or more to simply open because of how many transclusions there are within the table, and the way the data is displayed in the Visual Editor when editing is cumbersome, confusing and slow to navigate. As you can hopefully see, the current table really has several areas which need improvement. The new table that I made fixes all of these issues. ChocolateTrain (talk) 15:45, 4 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Hey, I will jump in and respond here as I feel I can respond better than Noah. 1) I am not going to disagree that the SE Charts need improvement and I feel that some of your chart is worth adding to the various templates. However, there is no way that ACE is going in unless you can find a source from the BoM that gives us a total for the whole season. 2) The column titles are something I have struggled with over the years, as we have 10-min winds, 3-min winds, 1 min winds and gusts that could be represented by a table. Should it be peak classification or category? Personally, I feel peak classification reflects things better than category. 3) The reference column will be staying as it is needed for the benefit of our readers who will not always read a storms summary for damage totals etc, especially in Aus and PTS where we have 29 systems a year. It is also useful for us as we can tell in an instance where a damage total has come from rather than trying to locate the original source when we have IPs change the damage total or need to copy systems upwards. 4) If AUD isnt needed then I am happy to drop it and redirect the template to the Pacific areas affected template. 5) While working on Aus 5, I noticed that you need to become more broad with the areas affected. There is no point in saying that QLD, NT and WA were all affected when Northern Australia would suffice. There were also one or two cases where there were no areas directly affected by a system so that would save some space in theory. 6) There isnt a lot i can say about Visual Editor as i don't use it but in way im glad its harder to edit as it would saves vandalism. 7) I need to check the MoS about conversions as i have a feeling that we are required to convert but to what extent i dont know. 8) I would rather make any changes globally and make sure we are using the same templates.Jason Rees (talk) 20:41, 4 July 2019 (UTC)
 * I reverted you because you had no consensus to make such a change. Even if the current template is wrong, you need a consensus to make the change as this affects several articles. You would need to make sure everything you are changing is okay and get a consensus to decommission the existing template if you are no longer planning on having it transcluded. <span style="white-space:nowrap;text-shadow:#009200 0.3em 0.4em 1.0em,#009200 -0.2em -0.2em 1.0em;color:#009200">Noah Talk 23:58, 4 July 2019 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to blank out or remove portions of page content, templates, or other materials from Wikipedia without adequate explanation, as you did at Tropical Storm Dorian (2019), you may be blocked from editing.

Edit warring to blank the page is extremely disruptive.'' ‑Scottywong <span style="font:0.75em Verdana,sans-serif;color:#994499;">| [converse] ||  03:39, 27 August 2019 (UTC)
 * It is problematic when new users create articles for storms that aren't deserving due to lack of notability. AfD is not the proper venue for these articles as a redirect is needed. I explicitly told that user to make a draft then wait and see if the impacts were severe enough before making an article (on his talkpage). We don't need a duplicate of content in 2019 Atlantic hurricane season. As for the explanation I gave, WP:TOOSOON is good enough for storms that may have impact in a few days, but haven't yet done much. We have criteria that need to be met in order for an article to be created. That simply hasn't been satisfied at this time due to lack of land impact. There really isn't much in that article and the content that is there is bloated (Also other massive issues). Keep in mind NOT ONE, BUT TWO of us reverted the article and more agreed that the storm was not deserving of an article (I would be willing to get them if you need the proof). <span style="white-space:nowrap;text-shadow:#009200 0.3em 0.4em 1.0em,#009200 -0.2em -0.2em 1.0em;color:#009200">Noah Talk 10:44, 27 August 2019 (UTC)
 * I'm not commenting on whether or not the article should be deleted, I haven't even read it and it doesn't matter. The point is that you can't just go around replacing someone's work with a redirect, especially when you've already tried to replace it with a redirect once and you were quickly reverted. Replacing the content of an article with a redirect is the same as deleting the article. Wikipedia has procedures for deleting articles: WP:CSD, WP:PROD, WP:AFD. If you try to blank the article and someone reverts you, the next appropriate step is to either start a discussion on a talk page (the user's talk page or the article's talk page), or nominate the article at AFD. Trying to repeatedly blank the article is disruptive, it amounts to edit warring, and you'll eventually get blocked for it. ‑Scottywong <span style="font:0.75em Verdana,sans-serif;color:#449944;">| [converse] ||  13:55, 27 August 2019 (UTC)

It's also good to remind of Article Guidelines, Hurricanes, typhoons etc should only receive a separate article if they are long enough not to be considered a stub. If there isn't enough to write about, the text can go inside the article for the hurricane season. When creating a new article for an active storm when it may or may not be appropriate (i.e. a major hurricane currently threatening land), it is generally best to put a request up in the discussion for that hurricane season (e.g. Talk:2017 Atlantic hurricane season) and discuss it with others. However, we would also encourage you to be bold and make the article if you think it is notable or is very likely to become notable within 72 hours.

I say this as just looking up the notability of storms after it's been a while. – The Grid  ( talk )  16:43, 27 August 2019 (UTC)

 * Every storm near the US is national news regardless of intensity. It happened to turn early and miss Hispaniola and Puerto Rico, which allowed it to become very strong. We aren't fortune tellers. Just because it is newsworthy does not substantiate notability. As a project, we ended the days of every storm getting an article. The storm has to actually do something to deserve an article. At that time, the requirements were not satisfied. Wyatt prematurely created the article. No article should be posted with such minimal content available. I had him create a draft and the situation was resolved by the time A1 decided to report it. A1 got full protection on a page once when a dispute had been resolved at least 12 hours prior, which caused a headache since nobody could update it with storm information. <span style="white-space:nowrap;text-shadow:#009200 0.3em 0.4em 1.0em,#009200 -0.2em -0.2em 1.0em;color:#009200">Noah Talk 02:01, 31 August 2019 (UTC)
