Review commentary

 * WikiProject, User:Cyrius, and User:Golbez notified.

The article was featured on October 15, 2006. –Juliancolton Happy Holidays 01:23, 20 December 2008 (UTC)
 * The lead is too short.
 * Most of the article is unsourced, including entire sections. The Records and notable events, in particular, sticks out, with unsoured numerical facts.
 * The article lacks significant information; the Deaths and damage is only a few sentences long, even though the season was one of the most destructive in history.
 * Many individual storm sections are not comprehensiveness.
 * The article is sourced almost exclusively to the National Hurricane Center, with few secondary sources.
 * Several references are not formatted properly.

In regard to "sourced almost exclusively to the NHC", why is this a problem? --Golbez (talk) 01:42, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

I agree there are too many problems for this to be featured. I personally think the article should be re-constructed along the lines of the other featured seasons from the time period (I am working on one such article now). ♬♩ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 22:06, 21 December 2008 (UTC)
