Template:Hurricane Just quick documentation to make this ready to go. I'll get this sorted (as with other IH variants) after the primary rollout.--Nilfanion (talk) 23:03, 16 December 2007 (UTC)
Parameter list
{{Infobox Hurricane Small | Type=Hurricane | Basin=Atl | Image=Hurricane Katrina August 28 2005 NASA.jpg | Track=Katrina 2005 track.png | Formed=[[August 23]], [[2005]] | Dissipated=[[August 30]], [[2005]] | 1-min winds=150 | Pressure=902}}
- Type: Storm type (hurricane, tropical storm, typhoon, etc) - uses anything but ensure proper case
- Basin: use shortcode as with {{Infobox Hurricane}}
- Track: Track map
- Image: Sat image
- Formed: Formation date, defaults to "unknown"
- Dissipated: Dissipation date, defaults to "unknown"
- Winds: number only in knots as with other templates.
- 1-min winds
- 3-min winds
- 10-min winds
- Gusts
- Pressure: number only in mbar as other templates
- Prewinds: Use to add "<" or similiar modifiers to the winds
- Prepressure: Use to add "<" or similiar modifiers to the presure
Try to include 1-minute values for all storms. If the storm is in a basin where another measurement takes priority and has one, for instance 3-mins in the NIO, still include the 1-minute value. The value will not be displayed in the "winds" but is needed to determine the SSHS category.
If no image is available (for example in an older storm), use the track map for the image. Be sure to include the type of storm as in Template:Infobox Hurricane.
Duplicated templates?
Why is this template duplicated at {{Infobox hurricane small}}? The latter is properly named as neither Hurricane nor Small are proper nouns... — jdorje (talk) 04:56, 19 December 2007 (UTC)
- These templates are not duplicates. This is a strict replacement for the other template, improving substantially on it and working in a very different manner. The other template cannot be modified to this without breaking transclusions on existing pages. That is why this is at this location. Capitalisation is not a big deal, not like the bad grammar in wikimarkup matters.--Nilfanion (talk) 23:11, 19 December 2007 (UTC)
New Section for still active cyclones
Can we put a second bar up if the cyclone the template is for is still active.... I can't do it but will someone else do it? Itfc+canes=me (talk) 16:48, 23 August 2008 (UTC)
Faulty dash
Hurricane editors should know by now that date ranges are not separated by WP:EMDASHes, rather by WP:ENDASHes. The syntax here is too complicate for me to fix; please address. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 20:02, 6 March 2009 (UTC)
<br/> ?
