Meteorological history of Hurricane Dean

 * Notified: Plasticup, WikiProject Weather, WikiProject Tropical cyclones, 2021-12-05

Review section
I am nominating this featured article for review because lots of academic literature of the hurricane has not been added to article, as outlined on the talk page. Z1720 (talk) 23:36, 1 July 2023 (UTC)

 * Move to FARC — Issues were not addressed. The entire article of 30k bytes has exactly two reliable secondary sources. NOAA is classified a primary source, so the article has 49 primary sources and 2 secondary sources. The Weather Event Writer (Talk Page) 05:43, 26 July 2023 (UTC)

 * - there's a list on unincluded sources linked on the article's talk page, but it's unclear to me which of these are actually going to be particularly relevant to the meteological history to the degree that it causes problems with WP:FACR? The first page of the google scholar search listed includes a study of damage as they effect Jamaican farmers, the Franklin report which is already used in the article, damage effects on reef fish, one about precipitation development that could well be relevant, an annual season report, damage impacts at Guadeloupe, damage in the Yucatan forest, tree damage in Mexico, effects on seafloor pressure, and more damage at Guadeloupe. I'm not convinced this article is necessarily at the FA standard, but would like to see better evidence of what specific sourcing is missing before supporting delisting on those grounds, as all of that damage coverage isn't really going to be particularly relevant to a purely meterorological history.

 * Neither of the editors pinged above have responded, nor has there been any edits to the article since July. If an editor is not willing to evaluate the sources, then it might be time to delist it and another editor at a later date can look at the sources and renominate this at FAC when it's ready.

 * I've left a neutral notice at the WikiProject talk page. If it's been another week or so without input on this, I agree it's probably best to just delist this if nobody apparently cares. Hog Farm Talk 03:03, 6 November 2023 (UTC)

 * Delist, I guess, because it seems that nobody cares. Hog Farm Talk 03:08, 10 November 2023 (UTC)
