Timeline of the 2005 Atlantic hurricane season
This is my first Featured list candidate, so I will confess that I am unfamiliar with the style guidelines. I looked at a few current Featured Lists and corrected the mistakes that I noticed, so hopefully we will find it to be up to snuff. Before we begin, a disclosure: I don't know whether the second paragraph of the lead is appropriate. It was (more or less) like that when I came to the article, and I can re-write it if need be.

I have survived a couple FAs without major injury, and I think most of the reviewers can say the same, so let's give this a shot.  Plasticup  T / C  03:52, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

There doesn't seem to be a lot of attention here. Would you mind if I asked the Tropical Cyclones WikiProject for some feedback here? I know it might look like canvasing (which is why I am asking here first) but the guys there are honest and thorough reviewers who wouldn't hesitate to shoot down a Tropical Cyclone nominee if they thought it wasn't ready.

 * Comment Now that the boldings are removed, this sentence should be removed, as well: For convenience and clarity, all storm formations, upgrades, and landfalls are bolded in the timeline below. I'll take a look at the rest of the article later. Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone  13:16, 12 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Good catch. Thanks,  Plasticup  T / C  13:20, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

 * References added, except for December 1, which doesn't need a reference because it just states the ending of the season. Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone  14:10, 12 August 2008 (UTC)
 * I found something to cite the season end, just to be thorough.  Plasticup  T / C  14:16, 12 August 2008 (UTC)
 * my Comments have now been resolved so Support Jason Rees (talk) 16:57, 12 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Comment - "The updates may be very significant, as was the case with an unnamed subtropical storm that went entirely unnoticed until the post-season review." Wouldn't it be better to say, "The updates in this case were very significant, as an unnamed subtropical storm that went entirely unnoticed was discovered during the post-season review."?

 * I like that a lot and have added something similar.  Plasticup  T / C  22:08, 12 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Cool. Images and references check out. Support. Tito xd (?!? - cool stuff) 22:11, 12 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Support Images are all nice and free, article looks good. Well-referenced, seems to be MoS compliant, lead seems adequate. Meets all the FL criteria as far as I can see. Good job. Woody (talk) 21:45, 13 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Comment Support Probably a little nit-picky, but replace the hyphens between the time and descriptions to an en dash. –Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone  18:17, 16 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Thank god for AWB. Replacements all done.  Plasticup  T / C  18:47, 16 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Sorry to be frightfully dull but if your conversions are based on those used in the 2004 Atlantic hurricane season list, could you add the same footnote as there please? Cheers! The Rambling Man (talk) 18:37, 16 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Took me a while to figure out what you meant, but I have added a note about it.  Plasticup  T / C  18:47, 16 August 2008 (UTC)
