Review commentary

 * Notified: Titoxd, Tropical cyclone WikiProject

I am nominating this featured article for review because I don't believe it still meets the FA criteria. There is a glaring section missing (aftermath) that is in most tropical cyclone articles. There are many unsourced sections, and there are as many poorly sourced sections, using outdated references. If I read the article, I would wonder what the hurricane did that resulted in so much damage. In the United States section, it mentions a lot of meteorological statistics and some damage figures, but it doesn't indicate any physical damage.

The article could be rewritten entirely to ensure it meets FA standards, but it shouldn't have to be. It doesn't meet the FA criteria right now, and it wouldn't unless someone were to put a lot of work into it (and since it was featured almost four years ago, there hasn't been much of an effort to keep it in good shape).

 * Unlike earlier in the year, now I should actually have time to work on this one. Tito xd (?!? - cool stuff) 21:46, 9 June 2010 (UTC)

FARC commentary

 * Featured article criterion of concern are quality of sourcing, citations and comprehensiveness  YellowMonkey  ( vote in the Southern Stars and White Ferns supermodel photo poll '')  04:38, 28 June 2010 (UTC)


 * Comment - Main contributor told this article is now at FARC. Hopefully, FAR concerns will start to be addressed. --mav (reviews needed) 14:04, 4 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Delist - It has been more than a month since this article was brought to FAR, and over two weeks since it was moved to FARC, and nothing but very minor formatting has been done. Significant work needed... Dana boomer (talk) 12:32, 13 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Delist, due to unexpected RL stuff I will be unable to work on it at all for a few weeks, so I think a new FAC would be better than stalling the FARC. Tito xd (?!? - cool stuff) 19:14, 13 July 2010 (UTC)
