List of storms in the 2006 Pacific hurricane season

 * Nominator(s): ♬♩ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 01:56, 25 April 2010 (UTC)

The 2006 Pacific hurricane season was a rather busy one, and unusual how most of the storms affected land. After a lot of tiresome editing, fixing up refs from four years ago, and getting reviews from three talented editors, I am ready to take the plunge and get another million comments for this list. It's the sole outstanding article I need for a featured topic several years in the making, so I hope you like it. ♬♩ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 01:56, 25 April 2010 (UTC)

Comments. Generally well written list, but I have a few comments: Ruslik_ Zero 19:16, 4 May 2010 (UTC)
 * 1) The list contains not only storms and hurricanes, but also tropical depressions. However they are not even mentioned in the leading section. At least their number (6?) should be stated together with the number of storms and hurricanes (first sentence).
 * 2) Tropical activity began on May 27 but The season officially began on May 15 . Why did the season began earlier than the activity?
 * 3) Hurricane Ileana moved off the coast of Africa on August 8. It entered the Eastern North Pacific on August 16 and developed into a tropical depression on August 21 near Acapulco. From this it follows that a Hurricane (sic!) turned into a depression, for the first time in history!
 * First, thanks a lot for the copyedit and the look-through. I added the depressions to the lede (good catch). I didn't put them in the first sentence, since I chose to start the article with a more interesting sentence, and tropical depressions are generally not as important as named storms. The season is the official timeframe, as marked by the warning center. Storms form within the season, so hence why the first storm was 12 days after the start of the technical season. As for Ileana, heh, I suppose that could be confusing based on the wording, so I fixed it. Hope it's better now. Hurricanehink ( talk ) 20:46, 4 May 2010 (UTC)
