Effects of Hurricane Georges in Cuba

 * Nominator(s): Cyclonebiskit (talk) 17:20, 12 September 2009 (UTC)

I am nominating this for featured article because I believe the article meets all of the FA criteria. As always, all thoughts and comments are welcome and encouraged. Cyclonebiskit (talk) 17:20, 12 September 2009 (UTC)


 * Image review by NuclearWarfare
 * For anyone who doesn't know how to navigate NOAA, finding the source for File:Hurricane Georges 24 sept 1998 1945Z.jpg might be a bit difficult. Do you think you could keep the source information there current and also add a deeplink?
 * Same thing with File:Hurricane Georges 25 sept 1998 1935Z.jpg as with the above image.
 * All else looks good.
 * Alt text looks good.

 * I have no idea how to work the system to get those images, they were all gotten by a now retired user. According to the recent FAC for Effects of Hurricane Georges in Louisiana those images were fine. Also, thanks for the images review Cyclonebiskit (talk) 17:47, 13 September 2009 (UTC)


 * Comments -
 * What makes the following reliable sources?
 * http://www.hurricanecity.com/dam/dam1998.htm
 * Otherwise, sources look okay, links checked out with the link checker tool. Ealdgyth - Talk 19:40, 16 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Removed it and replaced it with a much more reliable source Cyclonebiskit (talk) 19:46, 16 September 2009 (UTC)


 * Comment - I think the lead should be rewritten to focus on the storm's effects on Cuba; the first paragraph is currently about its history elsewhere. – Juliancolton  &#124; Talk 04:42, 24 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Is it better now? Cyclonebiskit (talk) 17:53, 26 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Yep. Support based on a brief read-through of the rest of the article - I'll revisit later to evaluate the page more closely. – Juliancolton  &#124; Talk 20:53, 26 September 2009 (UTC)
