Moving files to Commons
Hi!

I was thinking of moving all your maps to Commons. As you can see someone started tagging your files with "no source" because you did not add a "Created and uploaded by Keith Edkins" on all of the files.

Perhaps you could scan Special:ListFiles/Keith_Edkins and tell me if you made all the maps yourself or if some of them are created by someone else. If they are all your files it is easy to fix the license and source to.

Many (all?) of the files are subject to disclaimers. Perhaps you would be willing to remove those?

Happy new year :-)

 * Thank you for the reply. I have been thinking about it and agree we could delete unused files. I have replaced the usage for some of the maps. However, I was thinking that perhaps we should start a DR 1) to hear if someone has good arguments not to delete and 2) to get more users to help check if the files are used. Is that ok with you? --MGA73 (talk) 20:59, 2 January 2012 (UTC)


 * Thank you for the reply. By disclaimers I meant they used the license GFDL-with-disclaimers instead of GFDL. --MGA73 (talk) 17:32, 3 January 2012 (UTC)


 * Once the unused/unneeded files are deleted we can try to find the files that has the template. --MGA73 (talk) 18:03, 3 January 2012 (UTC)

I started a DR here Files_for_deletion/2012_January_3. Lets hope for a good response. --MGA73 (talk) 19:39, 3 January 2012 (UTC)


 * The files has been deleted and there is now less than 100 images in your upload log. Except for the oldest maps your files with GFDL has GFDL-with-disclaimers. I checked a few and they were own work. Perhaps you could have a look? --MGA73 (talk) 07:20, 11 January 2012 (UTC)

I just came by to follow up to see if everything was ok (I have been to busy so I've been forgetting some things). I can see that your upload log is almost empty (I moved one file yesterday) so it looks like all questions have been answered. Thank your for your huge and fast help. --MGA73 (talk) 16:11, 9 February 2012 (UTC)

SWIO
The problem we have is that Reunion will only call a subtropical depression, an STD, once it reaches what would be Subtropical Storm strength, which is why i was looking to change it to the storm colour. However the problem i figuring out how to change it on the infobox so it would automatically be green instead of blue, as for if its wise to do it i dunno. If you want to RV me feel free.Jason Rees (talk) 12:22, 8 January 2012 (UTC)

MF NC advisories
Hi Keith, Would you be able to point the links in your archiver to the English copies of Meteo France New Caledonia's warnings.

 * Thanks - it is appreciated.Jason Rees (talk) 01:45, 13 January 2012 (UTC)

Updates
You mind applying the update of Grant's track to its infobox? (P.S. Why is there nothing connecting the points on part of the track? Did you miss a point, or is it something else? Please let me know.) Thanks! 72.197.233.244 (talk) 02:46, 21 January 2012 (UTC)

You can still update Tropical Low 17U's track with new track points provided by this outlook, as TCWC Darwin is still tracking the storm. 72.197.249.141 (talk) 03:39, 15 March 2012 (UTC)
 * You can continue to track Tropical Low 17U from this bulletin, with the track data that it is providing. Happy editing! 72.197.249.141 (talk) 05:54, 20 March 2012 (UTC)

Tracks
What were those ET points you removed from the Australian summary track? And why did you remove them? 72.197.233.244 (talk) 01:57, 24 January 2012 (UTC)

Hi Keith. I was wondering since you could change file names, if you could change the file name of. Thanks. Bruvtakesover (T&#124;C) 12:55, 9 February 2012 (UTC)

If possible, can you please update Alenga's track? Here is a set of track coordinates, just in case you are unable to locate any new ones. I sure hope you can update the track with the link I provided. Wish you luck! 72.197.249.141 (talk) 08:52, 1 March 2012 (UTC)
 * It may be an outlook, but if you read the first part of the page carefully, you will see that it contains Alenga's track coordinates from December 8 to 11, when it was dropped. Hope this helps! 72.197.249.141 (talk) 01:14, 2 March 2012 (UTC)
 * You'll find that that link is dead. Bruvtakesover (T&#124;C) 01:44, 2 March 2012 (UTC)

Why does the Tropical Depression 19S infobox still show the old revision, instead of the updated track? Was it an uploading error, or was it a problem with the display? 72.197.249.141 (talk) 00:43, 19 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Congratulations, you actually got the track to upload correctly. (It must be something wrong with the database, because apparently it didn't work until yesterday, or today.) By the way, thanks for all those tracks you created. You did a really wonderful job. 72.197.249.141 (talk) 00:50, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

Explicit symmetry breaking
I've reverted this article back to an old version due to the copyright concerns you raised. Unfortunately that meant your references were lost and I don't feel I know enough on the subject to re-insert them. Sorry about that. Dpmuk (talk) 03:24, 30 January 2012 (UTC)

Tropical Storm 01M
I don't know how, but someone has managed to get additional track data for this storm, as shown at the bottom of this page. Above the picture is a possible link to the additional track data. If possible, can you please update 01M's track? Thanks! 174.65.96.212 (talk) 01:50, 8 February 2012 (UTC)

Hi, Jivesh Here
Hi. My name is Jivesh. I stalk the page 2011–12 South-West Indian Ocean cyclone season because I live in Mauritius and I love to follow cyclonic activities. Are you a meteorologist? Please reply. Jivesh 1205 (Talk) 16:04, 14 February 2012 (UTC)

STD 03
Hi Keith, After looking through the melay from last night, it does appear that the IP has a point. STD 03(R)s track was never updated after December 20 which would account for the problem i think. Is there any chance of you being able to update it please? Thanks.Jason Rees (talk) 13:55, 25 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Thanks. Hopefully a better track can be found in a few months time.Jason Rees (talk) 15:43, 25 February 2012 (UTC)

Track converter
Hi, I need help with the track converter (you know, to get the NRL data into HURDAT data). Bruvtakesover (T&#124;C) 19:57, 24 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Just a thought, would you be able to build a converter for the JTWC BT to Hurdat at all?.Jason Rees (talk) 17:05, 25 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Sweet, Thanks. :) Jason Rees (talk) 21:40, 25 February 2012 (UTC)

Why is the tracks showing up in the western hemisphere, not east? Bruvtakesover (T&#124;C) 09:22, 26 February 2012 (UTC)

New Tropical Cyclones
Was the Perth Low on the Australian Basin's talk page an actual tropical low? If it was, then can you please create a section for it on th Aus page? Please update me when you have the answers. Thanks! 72.197.249.141 (talk) 08:13, 1 March 2012 (UTC)

Tracks
If you are after a better track for Fina, Grant and Heidi, BoMs BT folder from row 1356 has data that a track can be made out of for all 3. If you need help decoding it shout or use the manual supplied. Kind Regards.Jason Rees (talk) 17:36, 2 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Meh its no worse than a certain Miami based RSMC, who do fixes every hour when a TC is near land.Jason Rees (talk) 03:27, 3 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Would you be able to re-webcite the JMA English best track data for Ma-on as the link on the PTS talkpage isnt working Ie: http://www.webcitation.org/63JyALLMe but for Ma-on Thanks.Jason Rees (talk) 14:49, 5 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Thanks i really do appreciate it. :)Jason Rees (talk) 11:02, 6 March 2012 (UTC)
