An article which you started, or significantly expanded, Hurricane Bob (1979), was selected for DYK!

 * It has been re-added to DYK, although in the future, ask if you think an article meets requirements or not. Despite the fact that the inclusion of it was sitll under discussion, someone still went to add it to next update. They have been rebuked for it, but the incident will likely be left alone now. You've done nothing wrong, but there's been a big mess, so I would again encourage you to ask about eligibility for DYK in not-obvious cases in the future. Cheers. – Chacor 10:53, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

2007 AHS predictions
You might want to remove that. See the official policy on user pages. Wikipedia is not a general hosting service, nor should it attack certain people. The fact you predict a category 3 hurricane to cause $2 billion in damage and 125 deaths in Portugal could be seen as an attack or your disdain towards the country. The same goes for the Category 2 hurricane which causes $7.5 billion and 1800 deaths in Mexico. Do you want those people to die? Hurricanehink ( talk ) 14:38, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

Re: Guillermo
Not a bad start. I can't spend too much time on it, but you should add more sources. 4 sources only from the government is too few. Try the newspaper archive and a good search. Also, I would merge the impact and records sections. Hurricanehink ( talk ) 02:58, 7 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Are you ever actually using the monthly weather review? It looks like you just added them to where you ref'd the tcr. All in all, it looks decent at a quick glance. I recommend you add some more lede so there isn't so much white space, but other than that it looks publishable and Start-class worthy; there are still some awkward wording issues, and the record section needs sourcing and clarifying.

Re: Canada roads
Absolutely not. Those projects should never have been created in the first place. I have far too much on my to-do list working on 3 or 4 U.S. states as it is. -- NORTH talk 22:50, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

I'm not sure what I could do to help. 1.) I know nothing about Canada roads, other than the 404, the Alaska Highway, and the TCH; 2.) I've never been to Canada in my life (hell, NYC's the furthest north I've been); and 3.) I'm working on about a dozen other things, from WP:PHILLY, WP:FLSR, WP:NJ and WP:NJSCR, and the one I started, WP:WPDE. So, as much as I like helping everyone, I'd be more of a hinderance than a help.  Good luck. EaglesFanInTampa (formerly Jimbo) 01:35, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

Re: Chris
I don't really care, although I hope if you do you try and do a good job. Try and go for B class right away, and be sure the sentences make sense, unlike usual. Hurricanehink ( talk ) 15:53, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

Re: 1983 AHS
Rather than asking for my limited and potentially biased point of view, why not bring it up on the often forgotten about assessment page? Hurricanehink ( talk ) 21:01, 2 April 2007 (UTC)


 * Don't worry, you didn't offend me. I'm just pushing for you to use the assessment page. Hurricanehink ( talk ) 21:52, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

Your current projects
Just to give you a heads up, any featured topic nomination without an article for every storm would probably fail, as they would constitute a gap. However, that doesn't mean that you shouldn't work on those articles, anyway. By the way, I meant to tell you good job with the infobox updates. They are a real pain, and I just want you to know that tedious work is noticed. Hurricanehink ( talk ) 19:33, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
 * But the seasons that currently have articles have articles which have information and did something. For the others, they'll probably end up merged. Hurricanehink ( talk ) 19:43, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
 * That's cool. I just don't know if they'd be featured topic candidates. Hurricanehink ( talk ) 19:46, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
 * I don't planning on FA'ing Alberto. Hurricanehink ( talk ) 19:49, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Yea, that sort of technical information isn't really needed. If you could incorporate some of it into the Debby 82 article with more laymen terms, that could work, though an article on its own isn't needed. Hurricanehink ( talk ) 20:03, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

Miscellany for deletion/Canada highway WikiProjects
I have nominated the various Canada highway projects for deletion on MFD due to their inactivity and the fact that they are superseded by other projects. You are welcome to participate. --Core desat 01:44, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

re: IRC
The channel log says you were K-lined; there's nothing I can do about that. Try coming in again later. --Core desat 21:54, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
 * It means you were temporarily banned from the server for some reason. It's a chanserv issue, I can't do anything to fix it. --Core desat 22:12, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

AWB edits
Please pay much more attention, when using AWB to make minor edits to articles. Of the ones you have done in the past half-hour most of them have had to be reverted instantly (for instance no refs mean "references" is silly). If you cannot use it responsibly I may be forced to remove you from AWB's check page.--Nilfanion (talk) 20:38, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

Userspace Articles
In the past, you created several userspace articles, and some of them have since become articles. However, they still show up under the category Incomplete hurricane infoboxes. Would you be willing to redirect them, either to the created article or elsewhere such as your user page, or put them up on MFD to solve the problem? The pages include Hurricane Emmy (1976), Hurricane Debby (1988), Hurricane Gabrielle (1989), Tropical Storm Matthew (2004), and User:Mitchazenia/1884 Atlantic hurricane season. Just as a reminder you have a lot of subpages that are not articles, many of which have not been worked on for quite some time. Those can be found here.
