====Israel-Palestine talks==== |
|||
Direct talks between Israeli PM Netanyahu and Palestinian leader Abbas started at the US State Department. First time in two years they've talked to eachother. [[User:DC|<font style="color: #002664">'''''~DC'''''</font>]] <sub>[[User talk:DC|<font color="#BB133E" face="Tahoma"><b>Let's Vent</b></font>]]</sub> 16:22, 2 September 2010 (UTC) |

:Same shit, different day, get back to me when some kind of peace agreement actually happens. --[[User:Golbez|Golbez]] ([[User talk:Golbez|talk]]) 16:31, 2 September 2010 (UTC) |
|||
:'''Oppose''' - it's a start, but only a start. [[User talk:Fox|<font style="color:#991616;"> '''''f o x''''' </font>]] 23:09, 2 September 2010 (UTC) |
|||
:'''Oppose'''. They're just talks. If something significant comes of them, then maybe, but the talks themselves are not ITN-worthy.

====[[Typhoon Kompasu (2010)|Typhoon Kompasu]]==== |
|||
It's not everyday that a capital city is hit by a cyclone. Early reports had three people dead. –'''[[User:Howard the Duck|<font color="#FFA500">HTD</font>]]''' ([[Wikipedia talk:In the news/Archive 31#World Cup updates|<font color="#FFA500">ITN: Where no updates but is stickied happens.</font>]]) 09:12, 2 September 2010 (UTC) |
|||
:No, but on the other hand, the article doesn't even say which capital city was hit. --[[User:Golbez|Golbez]] ([[User talk:Golbez|talk]]) 12:37, 2 September 2010 (UTC) |
|||
::'''Comment'''. I've updated the article to include the needed information, as the storm hit near [[Seoul]]. The storm's track is comparable to that of [[2000 Pacific typhoon season#Typhoon Prapiroon (Lusing)|Prapiroon]] in 2000, killing 46 and leaving $6 billion in damage, but essentially no other typhoons in the past 65 years have come this close to Seoul according to Wikipedia's storm tracks. I'd wait for more updated information, but another depression is forming that is forecast to take the exact same track. ~<font color="blue">[[User:AstroHurricane001/A|A]][[User:AstroHurricane001|H]][[User:AstroHurricane001/D|1]]</font><sup>([[User:AstroHurricane001/T|T]][[Special:Contributions/AstroHurricane001|C]][[User:AstroHurricane001/U|U]])</sup> 15:14, 2 September 2010 (UTC) |

: The update is very minor at the moment. One sentence about Seoul. Probably, if this typhoon is that notable, it should have a separate article, as do the cyclones. --'''[[User:Tone|Tone]]''' 18:48, 2 September 2010 (UTC) |

:'''Support''' as long as it's updated. <small>Please discount that if it doesn't get updated</small>.

::There is an article and has been for a couple of days at Typhoon Kompasu (2010). Im working to update it but i keep getting called away to deal with other things.[[User:Jason Rees|Jason Rees]] ([[User talk:Jason Rees|talk]]) 14:23, 3 September 2010 (UTC) |
|||
:::[[Typhoon Kompasu (2010)]] looks pretty reasonable and there's more material on Seoul. Anyone care to give me a good blurb?

::::Just a general blurb i think. Typhoon Kompasu (Glenda) makes landfall near Seoul, South Korea, killing at least five people.[[User:Jason Rees|Jason Rees]] ([[User talk:Jason Rees|talk]]) 17:38, 3 September 2010 (UTC) |

*'''Posted''' -- '''[[User:Tariqabjotu|<font color="black">tariq</font><font color="gray">abjotu</font>]]''' 19:40, 3 September 2010 (UTC) |
|||
*'''Come on!''' two typhoons/tornadoes one after the other? Can the two be merged instead? I see no reason not to put a merged, '''trimmed down''' version of the two blurbs instead. [[User:Nergaal|Nergaal]] ([[User talk:Nergaal|talk]]) 21:37, 3 September 2010 (UTC) |
|||
:::proposed blurb: ''Typhoon Kompasu (pictured) makes landfall in South Korea, becoming the strongest typhoon to affect Seoul in fifteen years, while 30,000 people in North Carolina, United States, are evacuated ahead of Hurricane Earl.'' [[User:Nergaal|Nergaal]] ([[User talk:Nergaal|talk]]) 21:40, 3 September 2010 (UTC) |
|||
::::Why would we do that? They are two completely unrelated storms thousands of miles from each other. [[User:HJ Mitchell|<font color="Teal" face="Tahoma">'''HJ Mitchell'''</font>]] | [[User talk:HJ Mitchell|<font color="Navy" face= "Times New Roman">Penny for your thoughts? </font>]] 21:46, 3 September 2010 (UTC) |
|||
:::::Because when there were natural disasters (i.e. landslide and flooding) in two different countries, they were posted in the same blurb. Why take 2 of the 5/6 slots in the ITN for two identical phenomena? [[User:Nergaal|Nergaal]] ([[User talk:Nergaal|talk]]) 22:14, 3 September 2010 (UTC) |
|||
:::::This is not flooding in bordering countries, so the merger makes no sense, but the evacuation of the NC islands is a false alarm two days old. Take Earl down.[[User:Medeis|μηδείς]] ([[User talk:Medeis|talk]]) 05:41, 4 September 2010 (UTC) |
|||
====Another Oil Rig explodes (this is not BPs)==== |
|||
It is though in the Gulf Coast again. This is owned by [[Mariner Energy]]. This just got reported mins ago. More to come. They still don't know if it's leaking though as this just happened [http://www.cbc.ca/world/story/2010/09/02/gulf-of-mexico-explosion.html]--[[User:Everyone Dies In the End|Everyone Dies In the End]] ([[User talk:Everyone Dies In the End|talk]]) 16:12, 2 September 2010 (UTC) |
|||
:'''Oppose''' since one person is injured and all 13 are safe. No damage reported. --<font face="serif">[[User: Candlewicke|<span style="color:red">can</span>]][[User:Candlewicke/List of signatories|<span style="color:black">dle</span>]][[WP:ITN/C|•]][[User talk:Candlewicke|<span style="color:green">wicke</span>]]</font> 17:20, 2 September 2010 (UTC) |

:'''Support''' - Supposedly it's causing a spill that's at least a mile wide.--[[User:WaltCip|WaltCip]] ([[User talk:WaltCip|talk]]) 19:38, 2 September 2010 (UTC) |
|||
:'''Neutral''' lets wait and see what happens. -- [[User:Eraserhead1|Eraserhead1]] <[[User_talk:Eraserhead1|talk]]> 19:40, 2 September 2010 (UTC) |
|||
:'''Oppose''' unless something new develops. There are - on average - approximately 85 oil rig fires/explosions in the Gulf of Mexico every year. --[[User:Smashville|'''Smashville''']][[User Talk:Smashville|<sup style="color:#03F">talk</sup>]] 19:42, 2 September 2010 (UTC) |
|||
:'''Neutral''' let's wait. And that spill, while a mile long, is only about 100 feet wide. [[User:DC|<font style="color: #002664">'''''~DC'''''</font>]] <sub>[[User talk:DC|<font color="#BB133E" face="Tahoma"><b>Let's Vent</b></font>]]</sub> 19:44, 2 September 2010 (UTC) |
|||
:'''Oppose'''. Premature nomination; this is only in the headlines by virtue of the ''Deepwater Horizon'' spill. I'll reconsider if there's some new development, but right now, this isn't even worthy of an article, never mind an ITN slot.

:'''Neutral''' per DC. --'''[[User:Extra999|<font color="red">Extra</font>]] [[User:Extra999/Guestbook|<font color="black">999</font>]]''' ([[User talk:Extra999|Contact <sup>me</sup>]] + [[Special:Contributions/Extra999|<sub>contribs</sub>]]) 11:46, 4 September 2010 (UTC) |
