Hey! what is a ‎MH Article:? ~mitch~ (talk) 04:43, 3 September 2019 (UTC)
 * An article discussing the meteorological history. I will likely just make one myself and publish it after the storm dissipates so it has better flow and we dont have to worry about the infobox needing updated there too. Noah Talk 10:31, 3 September 2019 (UTC)

Draft:Meteorological history of Hurricane Dorian Wow! Looks great Noah ~ very informative ~ ~mitch~ (talk) 20:05, 4 September 2019 (UTC)

Season summary of the 2019 PTS article deletion
Hi I have started a discussion in the talk page for that (unnecessary) article for a speedy deletion request and feel free to join if you want. However I may just really delete and just merge it with main 2019 PTS article instead. Typhoon2013 (talk) 05:04, 7 October 2019 (UTC)

I got your message
Hi Hurricane Noah! Sorry I missed your PM. I definitely understand your thinking when it comes to the username you reported,. However, I also think that it's too ambiguous to rule it as a violation of Wikipedia's username policy and justify taking administrative action. However, if a user with a borderline or questionable username start causing disruption or adding vandalism to the project, such usernames can be factored into the decision to block the account sooner. Keep an eye on things, and please do not hesitate to let me know if the user starts causing disruption or other issues, and I'll be happy to look into the matter further. Thanks again for the message, and I wish you a great day and happy editing! :-)  ~Oshwah~  (talk) (contribs)   22:44, 20 October 2019 (UTC)
 * Please see Force Thirteen... In this case, the user name looks as if it is impersonating the Force Thirteen company/organization. Noah Talk 02:09, 21 October 2019 (UTC)
 * Hurricane Noah - Ohhhhh!!! I thought you believed the username to be a UPOL violation because it might be referring to.... never mind... LOL. You might be correct with your thoughts regarding the username of this account, but I don't see any edits that establish this to be true to a reasonable degree of certainty. We should watch the user and wait for them to make additional edits so that their username becomes more clear. If this happens, and the user's edits begin to demonstrate that their username is intended to represent that company, please let me know and I'll be happy to look into this further. Until we have a more clear idea of what the username intends to represent, we should default ourselves to the assumption of good faith until clear edits, logs, data, and evidence is found that clearly shows otherwise. ;-) Please don't hesitate to reach out to me if I can be of any assistance to you with anything else, and I'll be more than happy to help. :-) Thanks again for the message, and I apologize for being AFK when you reached out to me; otherwise I would've got back to right away.

Google Code-In 2019 is coming - please mentor some documentation tasks!
Hello,

Google Code-In, Google-organized contest in which the Wikimedia Foundation participates, starts in a few weeks. This contest is about taking high school students into the world of opensource. I'm sending you this message because you recently edited a documentation page at the English Wikipedia.

I would like to ask you to take part in Google Code-In as a mentor. That would mean to prepare at least one task (it can be documentation related, or something else - the other categories are Code, Design, Quality Assurance and Outreach) for the participants, and help the student to complete it. Please sign up at the contest page and send us your Google account address to google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org, so we can invite you in!

From my own experience, Google Code-In can be fun, you can make several new friends, attract new people to your wiki and make them part of your community.

If you have any questions, please let us know at google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org.

Thank you!

“Unofficial” systems
So I’ve just seen your edits in the 2019 Nio cyclone season article and reverted them. As of this edit, only the JTWC classifies the system and so what? We still include it in the article since there is a designation and it is the JTWC. There are other articles that include JTWC-only systems anyway. Typhoon2013 (talk) 13:36, 3 December 2019 (UTC) Typhoon2013 13:36, 3 December 2019 (UTC)
 * The problem is, you are displaying scales that arent for this basin and unofficial information. This is simply overriding the RSMC, who still has this as a LPA per the last warning. This is a LPA, not a TS. Whatever the RSMC says is what goes as the section title as well as for the timeline and table. Noah Talk 13:40, 3 December 2019 (UTC)
 * I've seen your message regarding this, too. Yes you are right but that does not mean we do not include it. If for instance 07A was only tracked by the JTWC, we still include it, however, it is classified as an "unofficial" system. This goes the same to Subtropical Storm 07W in the WPac last year, 07W was not tracked by the JMA but it is still included, but known as an unofficial system. This is what me and other users have discussed a few years ago. This is just for you to let know in the future.

Question about the Tropical cyclone status icons
Hello, It has come to my attention that you have made these icons to visually indicate the status of active tropical cyclones. As you know, they include variants for the Saffir–Simpson scale, the JMA scale, the IMD scale, the Météo-France scale, and the Australian scale, and their geometry indicates their direction of rotation and thus the hemisphere they exist in. However, the Saffir–Simpson scale is the typical scale used to classify South Atlantic tropical cyclones, which exist in the Southern Hemisphere, but the Saffir–Simpson scale icons only include variants rotating anti-clockwise. So, what should be done for future South Atlantic cyclones? Grant Exploit (talk) 04:00, 24 November 2019 (UTC)
 * The South Atlantic storms will, unfortunately, have to have the incorrect rotation. For starters, nobody would support adding in additional colors just for the South Atlantic. The storms down there are sporadic (we aren't guaranteed to get one for years) and short-lived, so it isn't really worth the effort of going through all the processes. Noah Talk 16:11, 26 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the response. I put in the effort to create some icons. Categories 3–5 were excluded as in the exceedingly unlikely instance the South Atlantic spawns a major hurricane, the nearly visually identical Australian scale icons could be used. Grant Exploit (talk) 02:20, 27 November 2019 (UTC)
 * You aren't getting what I am saying. You NEED CONSENSUS to add additional storm colors to the storm colors template before any icons can be used. There isn't any reason to make separate colors just for South Atlantic so this simply dies at that point. Also, you don't need to ping me on my own talk page as I get notified every time someone edits it. Noah Talk 03:07, 27 November 2019 (UTC)
 * ...Well, yes, I'm not getting what you're saying, because I had no intention to create a new color scheme for South Atlantic storms. That would be unnecessary, and I don't know where that came from. All I was talking about was the icons in the category I linked to. Of course Template:Infobox tropical cyclone current will have to be modified slightly to include a "hemisphere" parameter. Of course, this is largely cosmetic, but the initial integration of the icons into the template (or indeed its whole existence) was, too. Also, I pinged you as you were/are on your hiatus, as after returning from a hiatus many people focus less on what has changed on the websites they are part of, and I thought that would reduce the chance of being ignored. Sorry for that. Grant Exploit (talk) 16:05, 3 December 2019 (UTC)
 * You can't do a hemisphere parameter. A specific color corresponds to an intensity image. You would have to define South Atlantic colors to get images working for it. Noah Talk 22:19, 3 December 2019 (UTC)
 * I know that, the way the template is coded currently. But it could almost certainly be modified to accept the parameter and modify the image accordingly. I'll see what I can do in the template Sandbox. Sorry for my proactivity. Grant Exploit (talk) 04:18, 4 December 2019 (UTC)

Thoughts...
Hi again. I have just seen your contributions so far in our wikiproject (WPTC) and damn I am impressed, and I am somewhat shocked on how I haven't come across you until the past few weeks. So I just had a clean-up in my user page and found this, which is a page I have made of all 'guidelines' for our pages along with the links of past discussions a few years ago. This may be a little stupid but judging how we have some old users retiring and an inflow of new users editing throughout the WPTC, these new users do not know the original guideline we have used in the past. with you yourself joining the project a little after me, what are your thoughts? I have decided to come to you because judging on your edits and how new you are compared to the others, we will be the 'senior' users in the next few years, I would say, as well as how I'm looking forward to working with you in the future.

 * I made this page as a redirect and have not edited it since 2019 began. Please note that it is impossible for no tropical cyclones to develop in a given year within the different regions of the world. We are in the middle of the southern hemisphere seasons, which have yet to reach peak activity. Conditions in the Southwest Indian Ocean are similar to last year, so, therefore, it should be expected that an above-average season will occur again. We currently have one active cyclone, Calvinia, which should persist until 00:00 UTC, crossing over into 2020. Due to the behavior of weather and relationships between the different oceans, it is impossible to get no cyclonic activity unless global temperatures drastically decrease and all the oceans freeze over. Noah Talk 21:46, 31 December 2019 (UTC)

Hi Noah. I noticed that Special:EmailUser/Hurricane Noah doesn't work. Any chance you'd like to enable email, in case anyone would like to get in touch with you privately?

Adminship
Hey there Noah, I didn't mean run for admin right now, necessarily :P Just that you have the makings of someone who wants to make Wikipedia a better place, and it seems like you're yearning to be a voice of authority. As you saw in the RfA, try getting more involved. ♫ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 16:26, 19 February 2020 (UTC)
 * I put the poll up there to gauge where I am at now. Anyways... I adjusted the awards "edit counts" formula to include a "time in service" bonus based on the number of days spent in WPTC. Nothing huge overall, but it will bump people a bit who have already been in the project a while. Also, I will be adding in items for senior editors later this year. I can't see how many edits you have/your average edit size since it lags out. Must be a lot lol Noah Talk 04:21, 20 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Yea, I've been editing since 2004, longer than some users have been alive. Don't worry too much about counts, awards, or even adminship really, if that's something you don't think you need. Focus on being a good content producer, a mediator, someone who is on top of the needs of the project (very much like you're already doing with C5 Pacific hurricanes!) ♫ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 03:28, 22 February 2020 (UTC)

Sorry for bothering you, but...

 * New Page Patrol is currently struggling to keep up with the influx of new articles. We could use a few extra hands on deck if you think you can help.
 * Reviewing/patrolling a page doesn't take much time but it requires a good understanding of Wikipedia policies and guidelines ; Wikipedia needs experienced users to perform this task and there are precious few with the appropriate skills. Even a couple reviews a day can make a huge difference.

Triple Crown


Hi Noah. Just in case you didn't realise as per the instructions you are only eligible for a triple crown if you have the same number of articles to nominate in the DYK, GA and featured content fields. While you have submitted nine GA's and five pieces of featured content, I can only give you the standards triple crown as there is only one DYK. If you had another four DYK nominations I could give you the relevant triple crown for five standard nominations, but even then the extra four GAs would not count for anything. There's no point in listing extra nominations unless you have them in all three categories. Have a great day. :) Damien Linnane (talk) 03:11, 18 March 2020 (UTC)

Nomination of Tropical cyclones in 2010 for deletion
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Tropical cyclones in 2010 is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Articles for deletion/Tropical cyclones in 2010& until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Robert McClenon (talk) 16:00, 6 June 2020 (UTC)

FAC Nomination
Nice work on Meteorological history of Hurricane Dorian. If you have the inclination, and would like some payback for the nitpicking, I'd welcome a review of my article's nomination at the FAC page as well. It's a bit out of your normal area, so it's fine to take a pass on that as well. In either case, best wishes on your article and thanks for helping to improve Wikipedia!

 * Again, thanks for the review! I know that one was a bit technical since it was the met history of a major storm. The other nomination, as well as my past ones, don't have that level of meteorological detail. Noah Talk 02:44, 23 June 2020 (UTC)
 * No problem. I was just passing time, waiting for reviews on mine. Frankly, I was trying hard to find more wrong with yours. I haven't reviewed many FAs, but I gave it a close look, bounced it off the criteria, scrubbed the sources, and compared it to similar FAs of previous storm's meteorological histories—certainly didn't give it an easy pass. Perhaps the fact that it's an A-class article helped. I thought it was well done. Airborne84 (talk) 03:03, 23 June 2020 (UTC)

Message to Hink and KN
A few hours after work, I found that out that my Dad had to take himself to the hospital. He has a bad infection and I need to focus on him for the time being. I will be gone for at least a few days, possibly more if need be. I withdrew Vicente's FAC and the 2018 PHS GAN for now. I trust that both of you will be able to get through Willa's SR in my absence.

 * I now know what caused his infection and he may be discharged in the next few days depending on when the infection gets under control. I'm hoping to be able to return to a limited capacity of work during the second week of August although I may do some minor things before then if I have time. I reinstated the GAN per JD's discord message about GANs not being time constrained like FACs are. I realized that some of my older EPAC work wasn't in the best of shape so I will need to fix those up in August/September. I will probably do a group A-class review for those so they can be properly done when it comes time for the FT. That being said, I will not be doing any FACs during the next month since I won't have the time. <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 20:49, 31 July 2020 (UTC)

 * Good news... He got discharged this afternoon and was able to drive himself home. He said the infection wasn't really debilitating, but just felt like back pain. Since he is up and moving around okay on, I guess that means I can be back to limited editing quicker than I previously thought. I won't be around as much of course, but I will do some things here and there. <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 18:54, 1 August 2020 (UTC)
 * That's really good news! This is a bad year to have any health issues, so the less time around other sick people, the better. I replied on the FAC about the reliable sources in Spanish, we'll see how that progresses. One question though: why do only some refs have translated titles but not all? ♫ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 22:48, 1 August 2020 (UTC)

I guess whenever the original was made, some people added translated titles. I never added them to any of the sources myself I don't believe. I might see about adding some more soon. <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 22:56, 1 August 2020 (UTC)

Hurricane Dolores GA review
Hey Noah! Do you mind doing the GA review for Hurricane Dolores (2015)? It looks like you reviewed the 2015 EPAC season article, as well as many other articles on WPTC. I'm currently expanding the article's MH and Impact sections, it should be ready for review in a few weeks. Thanks, and I hope you and your family stay safe. ~ Destroyeraa 🌀 20:28, 14 August 2020 (UTC)
 * I might have time... I don't know yet. I have an article up for review for GA, A, and will be putting Vicente back up for FA after my withdraw (due to a family emergency). <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 23:53, 14 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Hurricane Noah, it's ok that you don't have time. I'll just ask User:Hurricanehink to do it. Family first! ~ Destroyeraa 🌀 00:16, 15 August 2020 (UTC)
 * I withdrew it due to the emergency, which is now resolved. I just had to wait 14 days after closure to renominate the 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 00:29, 15 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Good to hear that. Which means that you don't have time to review Dolores... ~ Destroyeraa 🌀 01:23, 15 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Im saying I don't know if I will have time because of work and college. It is a wait and see kind of a deal. <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 01:40, 15 August 2020 (UTC)

Just jumping in,, I won't be able to review Dolores either. However, there are plenty of other users capable of reviewing meteorology articles. Maybe reach out to someone else in the project? (either WPTC or anyone in the weather project) ♫ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 15:05, 15 August 2020 (UTC)

Noah, I'm about finished with Dolores' met history. Would you mind taking a quick look at the article? Thanks. ~ Destroyeraa 🌀 19:09, 9 September 2020 (UTC)
 * I don't see anything show-stopping, but the GA review will largely be aimed at increasing the quality. I assume the impact will have more for Mexico, right? <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 22:34, 9 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Noah, the thing is that there wasn’t much impact for Mexico. Just some rains. I also recently nominated Hurricane Barry (2019) for GA. ~ Destroyeraa 🌀 00:31, 10 September 2020 (UTC)

Noah, I just nominated Hurricane Dolores for GA review. I added a sentence for impact in Mexico, and also added a record along with a new IR image of Dolores' peak intensity. The article looks good. It's the most I've ever put into for an article on Wikipedia :) ~ Destroyeraa 🌀 16:52, 10 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Good! FA is an entirely different ball game. The first article I did had lots of help from other people. I'm just glad I was able to do the storm justice. People unfortunately feel that TDs don't deserve articles. <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 18:56, 10 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Once Dolores gets to GA, I'll probably promote either Barry 2019 or some other storm in 2019 to GA. Then, I will consider bringing Dolores to FA. Though I will need help from user like you and Hink.


 * Regarding tropical depressions, yes, some TDs do deserve an article, like Nineteen-E. However there is currently a TD article, which is a good article - Tropical Depression One (2009) under discussion for merging with the season article. Some TD articles that didn't have much impact could be merged. ~ Destroyeraa 🌀 19:26, 10 September 2020 (UTC)

Re: Michael's met
Hey Noah, quick q on Michael: are you absolutely sure that the met article should exist? I'm not proposing a merger, but I do notice that the main article is on the short side, and would be especially short if the FL sub-article was split off too. We've never really set standards for when a storm sub-article should be split off (and there were some unnecessary proposals from this year). Those are my only thoughts on the article - if it's kept, then you've addressed all of my previous concerns. It's featured quality IMO, but it's like a featured quality section. If you do end up merging it (big if), then the prose/section would we be featured quality, and the main article would be one section closer to being done. ♫ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 15:24, 9 December 2020 (UTC)
 * There is a decent bit of technical terminology that is explained in the met article that deals with the formation and intensification. These bits are vital to understanding how the storm came to be, but are too technical for the main article. I think there will be a lot of expansion in regards to other areas that will help buff up the article after Florida gets split off. <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 15:29, 9 December 2020 (UTC)
