07F
Then how do you explain this? 174.65.96.212 (talk) 00:07, 3 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Currently, 07F is located way further south and Nadi would have also had it numbered 07F. Bruvtakesover (T&#124;C) 00:09, 3 February 2012 (UTC)
 * So you're saying that this is a identification mistake? If yes, is the storm mention TD 10F? If not, why is the bulletin still up there? 174.65.96.212 (talk) 00:16, 3 February 2012 (UTC)
 * The TDS is always up, no matter what. Have a look at this. Bruvtakesover (T&#124;C) 00:18, 3 February 2012 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification
Hi. When you recently edited Cyclone Dagmar, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Newfoundland (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Tracks
You said you installed the track generator. If you've got used to it, can you please create a track for the 2006 Invest 91C? (It is more significant than it seems; and it belongs to the 2006 Pacific hurricane season). The track data is right here. (The first set of points is the right track). Thanks! 174.65.96.212 (talk) 05:48, 9 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Track is here. Looks like I made a mistake with the title! Bruvtakesover (T&#124;C) 12:53, 9 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Renamed File:91C 2006 track.png--Keith Edkins ( Talk ) 13:29, 9 February 2012 (UTC)

Re:ITN
Yes, presumably. As long as you have done significant work on the ITN article this year (and before it was nominated, but if you created it, that's obviously not a problem) and it appears on the MP as an ITN article, you can claim points. J Milburn (talk) 16:09, 11 February 2012 (UTC)

TCs
Are there any new storm in the South-West Indian Ocean, or the Aus basin. I am asking this because the Perth advisories indicated that a low, which just crossed into the South-West Indian Ocean, had a high chance of becoming a tropical cyclone; even a TCFA was issued on it. The storm looks pretty good on satellite. Did this storm become a TC yet? Please let me know. Thanks! 72.197.249.141 (talk) 06:35, 14 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Well STOP asking me. LOOK at latest bulletins by La Reunion and you'll find out. Bruvtakesover (T&#124;C) 15:47, 14 February 2012 (UTC)

Re:Warning
I kind of knew that he was Typhoonwikihelper. What I didn't know was that he was this persistent. Plus, shouldn't blocked users have their "alternative editing IPs" blocked as well? (P.S, I just wanted to give him one final warning, before I would be done with him for good.) 72.197.249.141 (talk) 19:15, 23 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Look here and you'll find why his alternative IPs weren't blocked. Bruvtakesover (T&#124;C) 19:17, 23 February 2012 (UTC)

Help
Can you please explain to me what the job of a meteorological technician consists of? Jivesh 1205 (Talk) 12:54, 24 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Lol. I thought you would know since you edit articles related to cyclones, etc. Jivesh 1205 (Talk) 17:31, 24 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Lol. Okay. Can you suggest me someone? Jivesh 1205 (Talk) 17:59, 24 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Thank you. :D Jivesh 1205 (Talk) 18:13, 24 February 2012 (UTC)

Track converter
Do you have MS Excel (what version)? If so I will let you have a copy of the spreadsheet I use for this purpose.--Keith Edkins ( Talk ) 20:16, 24 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Alternatively, I have converted the code into a Javascript web page, you can find it at here. Thanks for cleaning up my talk page, BTW.--Keith Edkins ( Talk ) 13:38, 25 February 2012 (UTC)
 * You need to specify --negx 0 on the command line for a storm where the longitudes are expressed as East of Greenwich. Note that my converter makes all Southern Hemisphere storms East for consistency, even when this means having values greater than 180.--Keith Edkins ( Talk ) 09:57, 26 February 2012 (UTC)

TC Irina
Can you please fix up the track (or the page), because the infobox and the thumbnails are displaying the wrong version of the track. Thanks! 72.197.249.141 (talk) 01:28, 28 February 2012 (UTC)
 * No. That is Wikipedia's job to do Bruvtakesover (T&#124;C) 07:58, 28 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Then how are we going to get them to fix it? 72.197.249.141 (talk) 07:05, 29 February 2012 (UTC)

WikiCup 2012 February newsletter
Round 1 is already over! The 64 highest scorers have progressed to round 2. Our highest scorer was, again thanks mostly to a swathe of good articles on The X-Files. In second place was, thanks an impressive list of did you knows about racehorses. Both scored over 400 points. Following behind with over 300 points were, , and. February also saw the competition's first featured list: List of colleges and universities in North Dakota, from. At the other end of the scale, 11 points was enough to secure a place in this round, and some contestants with 10 points made it into the round on a tiebreaker. This is higher than the 8 points that were needed last year, but lower than the 20 points required the year before. The number of points required to progress to round 3 will be significantly higher.

The remaining contestants have been split into 8 pools of 8, named A through H. Round two will finish in two months time on 28 April, when the two highest scorers in each pool, as well as the next 16 highest scorers, will progress to round 3. The pools were entirely random, so while some pools may end up being more competitive than others, this is by chance rather than design.

The judges would like to point out two quick rules reminders. First, any content promoted during the interim period (that is, on or after 27 February) is eligible for points in round 2. Second, any content worked on significantly this year is eligible for points if promoted in this round. On a related note, if you are concerned that your nomination, be it at good article candidates, a featured process or anywhere else, will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on WikiCup/Reviews. However, please remember to continue to offer reviews at GAC, FAC and all the other pages that require them to prevent any backlogs which would otherwise be caused by the Cup. As ever, questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!
