Re: Historical persecution by Christians
Hello...I removed material not because I did or did not "like it", but rather because it contained no actual examples of persecution. The section listed a few examples of laws which might lead to persecution, but then admitted that the laws remained completely unenforced. It included statements by politicians, which didn't seem too friendly toward atheism, but didn't include any examples of actual persecution. It also included a quote from a completely non-notable Christian who in no way speaks for Christians or any denomination. In short, there wasn't any actual persecution listed. Now, there are certainly examples, and I urge editors to make those appropriate changes. But there was nothing listed. Thanks...KHM03 01:00, 16 January 2006 (UTC)

Sorry about that. Lionheart Omega 01:04, 16 January 2006 (UTC)


 * Current discrimination -- might be worth a try, if it's cited properly and written well. But discrimination is not persecution.  So don't be surprised if the material gets deleted.  After all, there's a lot of discrimination against Christians, too.  KHM03 01:20, 18 January 2006 (UTC)

The source is almost certainly the TCR. What's needed is more inline ref calls so that it's clear what bit of info comes from what source. The problem is non-US damage only gets very imprecise estimates in the TCRs; the totals are probably $2B in the US and $2-4B in Cuba or thereabouts. Jdorje 02:09, 1 February 2006 (UTC)

Costliest Atlantic hurricanes
The problem with a Costliest Atlantic hurricanes is that the sources are very poor. For instance Hurricane Fifi claims $20B in damages but gives no source. This is discussed at List of notable Atlantic hurricanes. Jdorje 03:28, 1 February 2006 (UTC)


 * Exactly. Jdorje 03:48, 1 February 2006 (UTC)

Huh? Help how? &mdash; jdorje (talk) 02:58, 3 February 2006 (UTC)


 * That's why you have to go to the sources. Hopefully (but unlikely) all those numbers will have sources given for them.  If not you have to find them.  The main and by far the most official source is the TCR. &mdash; jdorje (talk) 03:07, 3 February 2006 (UTC)


 * That Frances source isn't much of a source. It's just a newsletter run by one guy... &mdash; jdorje (talk) 01:15, 4 February 2006 (UTC)

Precision
You can't apply inflation to 10 and get 15.587. You have to round off to get 16 (or maybe, 15.6). However, you need to be very careful when updating the costs of hurricanes and add a source for any changes you make. Lots of sources give costs but they're only talking about U.S. damage. Jdorje 00:22, 2 February 2006 (UTC)

Wilma
Nobody knows for sure since there are no "official" estimates for damages in mexico. Gilbert supposedly caused $5b in damages, most of which was probably in mexico. But we can never be certain which is why the text should say "possibly the costliest hurricane in mexican history" and give a source for that. — jdorje (talk) 23:14, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

re: new tc articles
No, for the most part we do not need these articles. A few users have been adding new articles like crazy, generally of fairly low quality and low notability. A few other users have been regularly merging them back into the season articles. I myself am fairly neutral in the process but I tend to agree with the mergers. It would be much better if people who wanted to make a new storm article would isntead start off by extending the storm's section in the season article. Unfortunately the creators of the new articles refuse to do so, and generally also refuse to participate in the wikiproject discussion about new articles. The whole process is extremely wasteful. — jdorje (talk) 22:13, 16 March 2006 (UTC)

Damage
Just a quick note, when you update damage totals to 2005 USD, would it be possible to also include the un-inflated damage total? This allows for easy double checking and updating through the years. Good work for those where you did that. Hurricanehink 05:03, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

Tropical cyclones WikiProject Newsletter #1
Number 1, June 4, 2006 The Hurricane Herald This is the monthly newsletter of WikiProject Tropical Cyclones. The Hurricane Herald aims to give a summary of the activities of the WikiProject over the past month and upcoming events over the next month. In addition monthly tropical cyclone activity will be summarized.

You have received this as you are a member of the WikiProject, please add your username in the appropriate section on the mailing list. If you do not add your name to that list, the WikiProject will assume you do not wish to receive future versions of The Hurricane Herald. Sorry if the newsletter breaks your talk page formatting.

Storm of the month Typhoon Chanchu was the first typhoon and first super typhoon of the 2006 Pacific typhoon season. Forming on May 9 over the open western Pacific Ocean, Chanchu moved over the Philippines on the 11th. There, it dropped heavy rainfall, causing mudslides, crop damage, and 41 deaths. It moved into the South China Sea, where it rapidly strengthened to a super typhoon on May 14, one of only two super typhoons recorded in the sea. It turned to the north, weakened, and struck the Fujian province of China as a minimal typhoon on the 17th. The typhoon flooded 192 houses, while heavy rainfall caused deadly mudslides. In China, Chanchu caused at least 25 deaths and $480 million in damage (2006 USD). Elsewhere on its path, strong waves from the typhoon sank eleven Vietnamese ships, killing at least 44 people. In Taiwan, heavy rainfall killed two people, while in Japan, severe waves killed one person and injured another.

Other tropical cyclone activity
 * Tropical Storm Aletta existed in the eastern Pacific Ocean from May 25 to May 29, peaking as a 45 mph tropical storm.

New and improved articles
 * New storm articles include: Typhoon Joan (1970), Hurricane Bonnie (1986), Tropical Storm Matthew (2004), Storm of October 1804, Typhoon Chanchu (2006) and Cyclone Olaf.


 * New non-storm articles include: Tropical cyclone rainfall climatology, Dvorak technique and List of Bangladesh tropical cyclones.


 * New Featured articles: 2005 Atlantic hurricane season, Hurricane Mitch, Hurricane Irene (2005) and Hurricane Claudette (2003)


 * Articles which became A/GA class: Hurricane Katrina (A), Effect of Hurricane Katrina on New Orleans (A), Hurricane Felix (1995) (GA), Cyclone Percy (A), Labor Day Hurricane of 1935 (A), List of New Jersey hurricanes (A), Hurricane John (1994) (A), Tropical Storm Isabel (1985) (GA), Tropical Storm Odette (2003) (GA)

New articles and improvements wanted
 * An article is requested on subtropical ridge
 * The current collaboration of the fortnight is Hurricane Gilbert, please help improve this article.
 * Improvements are requested to Indianola Hurricane of 1886, Hurricane Camille and Hurricane Andrew.
 * The WikiProject is likely to submit Hurricane John (1994) and Hurricane Katrina to Featured Article Candidates in the near future, so please help improve them to featured standard.

Member of the month The May member of the month is Tito XD. The WikiProject awards this to him for his brilliant work in improving articles. Tito XD joined the WikiProject in October just after it had been founded. Since then he has contributed substantially to many articles, for example Hurricane Nora (1997), which is currently a Featured Article Candidate. He is also actively involved in the assessment of articles and so helps to improve many more articles.

Explanation of content

If you have a topic which is not directly related to any specific article but is relevant to the WikiProject bring it up on the Newsletters talk page, and it will probably be included in a future edition of The Hurricane Herald.

These two sections are decided by the community on the newsletter's talk page:
 * Storm of the month: This is determined by a straw poll on the page. While all storms will be mentioned on the newsletter, the selected storm will be described in more detail.
 * Member of the month: Nominations are made on the talk page, voting is by secret ballot; read the talk page for details. The winner receives the WikiProject's barnstar (when we make it).

Main Page content
 * 2005 Atlantic hurricane season appeared on the Main Page as Today's Featured Article on June 1.
 * Hurricane Floyd will appear on the Main Page as Today's Featured Article on June 17.
 * Entries from Dvorak technique, Typhoon Joan (1970), Typhoon Chanchu (2006), and Storm of October 1804 appeared on the Main Page in the Did you know column during May.
 * Entries from 5 other articles relating to tropical cyclones had appeared in the Did you know column earlier in 2006.

Storm article statistics

The assessment scale
 * The cyclone assessment scale is one of the bases of the new assessment scale for Version 1.0 of Wikipedia. It splits articles into several categories by quality, to identify which articles are "finished" and which ones still need to be improved.
 * The assessment scale by itself counts of several grades:
 * FA: reserved for articles that have been identified as featured content only.
 * A: this grade is given to articles that are considered ready for peer review. The way to get this grade assigned to an article is by asking other cyclone editors at the WikiProject's assessment page.
 * GA: reserved for articles that have passed a good article nomination.
 * B: these articles are "halfway there", and have most of the details of a complete article, yet it still has significant gaps in its coverage.
 * Start: articles that fall in this category have a decent amount of content, yet it is weak in many areas. Be bold and feel free to improve them!
 * Stub: these articles are mostly placeholders, and may in some cases be useless for the reader. It needs a lot of work to be brought to A-Class level.
 * The way to use these assessments is by adding a parameter to the WikiProject template on the articles talk page ( as an example). This feeds the article into a category which is read and parsed to create an assessment table, summary and log.

Re: Damage from Hurricanes
Yep, we're always glad to see some new faces. Looking at Delta, that's amazing that the storm caused as much damage as it did. I'm a little confused though about the GDP. How was Wilma 2% of the GDP if Katrina was only .5%? Is the 2% from Mexico, just Florida, or Cuba? Also, I'm a little confused how Delta could have caused up to $750 million in damage (2005 USD). The article only says 300 million Euros. About Katrina, stuff like that should be mentioned wherever. People are too quick to think hurricanes only kill people and destroy houses, but they can do a lot to the environment. If you have a source for that, you should add that into the article. Just curious, what do you see yourself doing here in the future? Hurricanehink ( talk ) 19:09, 7 June 2006 (UTC)


 * Oh, ok. Well, we should probably assume it is total damages, as we don't know for sure. I'm not sure how you got Wilma's $1.2 billion damage total for Wilma. Do you have a source? If so, you should add it into the article, as it's currently missing. The reason we probably couldn't get Maria's damage info is because it wasn't Hurricane Maria that did the damage. It was the extratropical storm that Maria merged with. That is why I would guess there's no damage total. Delta moved through the Canary Islands just after becoming extratropical, while Maria's damage wasn't directly from the original storm. As for the death, no idea, but it was probably unsourced. Hurricanehink ( talk ) 23:34, 8 June 2006 (UTC)


 * I'm not sure, as it's very ambiguous. However, the statement is unsourced, so it should be removed, rather than mentioned elsewhere. Hurricanehink ( talk ) 00:42, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

RE: Alberto
Not sure. If it did cause a death, I'm sure some news agencies will say that later on. Hurricanehink ( talk ) 11:38, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

Please use spaces and punctuation. Your recent edits are below the standard of an encyclopedia. Also, for Hurricane Michelle, please arrange Florida by chronological order affected, and not just stick it into the infobox somewhere. NSLE 02:51, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

Re: Katrina recovery in Pascagoula

Re: 1999
I guess images could be added. --Hurricanehink ( talk ) 03:12, 4 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Unfortunately, that site is not in the public domain. You have to find images of the storms from a .gov site, or one that says it's from a government agency. Actually, they might qualify as PD because they're works of the GOES satellite imagery, but just to be safe, you should find some .gov images. A very good image site for TC's around the world is the Global ISCCP B1 Browse System, which has worldwide satellite imagery from 1983 to 2006. Simply pick the day and find the storm. Here is how you upload it.

Does that make sense? --Hurricanehink ( talk ) 18:29, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
 * First, you should probably crop the image if it's from the above link. To do that, right click, and choose paste. Go into paint on your computer, and cut out the storm.
 * Save it as something relavent to the image, but something that's not in use. You could do, "Tropical Depression Seven (1999)"
 * On Wikipedia, look on the left-hand side for the link that says "Upload file". It should be under toolbox. Click that.
 * Because it's public domain, you should upload it to the Wikipedia commons, so you should follow the link to the Wikipedia commons page mid-way through the upload screen.
 * When you get to the commons, you'll have to have an account. It's the same as having an account here.
 * Once you have an account, click upload file.
 * On the upload file screen on Wikimedia commons, click browse and find the image you saved to your computer.
 * Copy and paste the information table that's to the top left into the summary, and fill in the information. For example,
 * Add some categories there, too. The categories go by location (TD 7 (1999)), strength (TD 7 (1999)), season (TD 7), and if it was retired (it would be Floyd, but only if it was retired).


 * Great job! I personally think all of the other TD's should be mentioned. Just to let you know, I already uploaded TD 2 in the 2003 season, though the rest are still needed. Hurricanehink ( talk ) 01:16, 5 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Good job with 2003. 2002 should be easy, as it only had 2 undeveloped depressions. Also, thanks for the happy bday message :) Hurricanehink ( talk ) 03:32, 16 July 2006 (UTC)

Very interesting. Imagine if that was over open waters for another few days, that thing would have been a monster due to its size. Hurricanehink ( talk ) 02:14, 23 July 2006 (UTC)

Re: Hey!
Thanks. I just find it easiest being nice to others. I don't know much about Scientology, but I wouldn't say anything. Making fun of others for their religion on Wikipedia could possibly get you blocked. I'd just leave it alone. Hurricanehink ( talk ) 02:30, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

Re: Nothing short of a miracle
An Epsilon type storm is pretty rare. Epsilon at least had the advantage of relatively warm waters with a lot of room. It would require a Mesoconvective type storm to develop in the Great Lakes. Those types of storms rarely develop in the Gulf of Mexico, so forming in the Great Lakes would be an even greater feat. Plus, it would require weak steering currents to keep it over the area, let's say Lake Huron. It is very unlikely to have convection develop at that latitude and remain there for days, mainly due to the fact that cold fronts always move through the area. A frontal low is theoretically possible, but it takes time for tropical cyclones to get a warm core and lose its frontal character. The Huroncane is a very unusual example, and I'm very surprised it even happened. Of course, stranger things have happened. Hurricanehink ( talk ) 02:24, 11 July 2006 (UTC)


 * The first thing to remember is that a Mediterranean Tropical Cyclone hasn't yet been confirmed. Thus, tropical cyclone-like systems in the Mediterranean could really be polar lows, which can form in cold waters. On the other hand, tropical-like systems in the Mediterranean in August through early October could, possibly, be tropical cyclones. The southern Mediterranean is at about the same latitude of North Carolina, and in the summer water temps can get into the high 70's. Subtropical storms don't follow the rules too well, and could form in the Mediterranean, I suppose, but there's too little research to make a statement about them. I don't know, the Med. Sea needs some more serious research done, as I am absolutely convinced that there has been at least one tropical cyclone there in the last 10 years, and probably one hurricane as well. --Hurricanehink ( talk ) 14:16, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

Good work with them. Rather than going ahead to 1994 (which isn't that disorganized), you should fill in the storm summaries. It's a little tedious, yes, but it's a little annoying to see a lot of white space due to the template. Hurricanehink ( talk ) 02:28, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

Welcome back
Hey, welcome back. Long time no see. Heh, there's too much still to be done. Here's a few suggestions, though it all depends on what type of article, which basin, and what time period you prefer. What about redoing/expanding Typhoon Paka? That article is a stub, but a fairly important one that has plenty of info out there. If you want something from the Atlantic, what about redoing/expanding Tropical Storm Alberto (2006), Hurricane Gabrielle (2001), or Hurricane Bret (1999)? Or, if you want to create a new Atlantic article, Tropical Storm Hermine (1998) is the most recent storm to hit the United States without an article, so there's probably some good info. If you're looking for something bigger, Hurricane Lenny or Hurricane Fran might be good. Something I've been doing lately is daughter articles of storm articles by effects, such as Effects of Hurricane Isabel in North Carolina. I don't know what sort of stuff you like to do, but they're not too bad for recent storms; maybe Effects of Hurricane Jeanne in North Carolina or a different hurricane's effects in your home state. There are some meteorological articles that are desperately needed, such as outflow or banding feature, which both probably have tons of info. I don't know, what did you have in mind? If you want to work on something, but are worried about obtaining links, let me know. I'll find you plenty of useful information. It's good to have you back, and I look forward to your future contributions. Hurricanehink ( talk ) 00:57, 18 February 2007 (UTC)
