I award thee the Barnstar of Diligence
The Barnstar of Diligence | ||
You have continued your pursuit in improving the Hurricane Gilbert article despite a setback (GAN failure), which many editors on here might not have done. It is an important storm article to improve. I therefore award you the Barnstar of Diligence, hoping the article can be improved/raised to GA status in the near future.

See Also section advice
Per Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Layout#See_also_section, the See Also section is mainly meant for incomplete articles which certain wikilinks are not included within the article body yet, but would be if it were a GA. It does mention that it is not a place for wikilinks already included within the article above. Someone clarified me on this a few years back. Now you know.

Note
Before seding an article to GAN that you have not worked on, please notify the primary author. Thank you. YE Pacific Hurricane 23:35, 11 March 2012 (UTC)
- Which article did he do so for? He's been working on the Gilbert article. Thegreatdr (talk) 00:15, 12 March 2012 (UTC)

Hi Jeffrey! I just finished reviewing Hurricane Gilbert and I have some suggestions for you. However, I was wondering if I could first do a thorough copyedit myself. If not, I can post all of my copyediting suggestions for you too along with the rest of the review. It's no trouble either way. Thanks for all your great work! Best, Keilana|Parlez ici 04:30, 22 April 2012 (UTC)
Hey
Hey man, how have you been doing? I noticed you haven't been editing much. I just wanted to make sure everything is alright. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 13:07, 10 May 2012 (UTC)
While this article is not terrible, it is not at the right location and while is somewhat notable and an okay idea, it is a little on the short side not to mention the fact that they are tons of more important storms without articles. I suggest you work on more important storm like Pacific typhoons or storms in the Southern Hemisphere as they are many more storms with good info. as well as many key storms in those basins that do not have pages. Thank you. YE Pacific Hurricane 01:30, 20 May 2013 (UTC)
- Sorry, I'm out of ideas for other storms (BTW, I can't seem to find a Southern Hemisphere tropical cyclone) iPhoneHurricane95 02:50, 27 May 2013 (UTC)

I deleted the redirect, go for it. --Golbez (talk) 02:33, 31 May 2013 (UTC)
Recent articles
Hey there JG (can I still call you that?). I was wondering if you thought to do more important articles ever? Most of the articles you've made in the past few days are of very marginal notability, and most previously had articles and were merged for a reason. You used to do WPAC articles on some pretty key storms. Is there a reason you stopped that? Hope all is well, cheers. --♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 18:25, 1 June 2013 (UTC)
Re: Raymond '83
I see that Raymond of 1983 was merged due to there being not enough info. However, I had the ability to create a sandbox of Raymond and I found as much info as I can, using this and this. Here's the sandbox. iPhoneHurricane95 22:33, 1 June 2013 (UTC)
- Mind if I edit your sandbox to see if it is actually worth an article? YE Pacific Hurricane 22:39, 1 June 2013 (UTC)
- You have a tendency to include too much trivial information though, like Hurricane Charley (1980). You don't have to include every factoid in an article. Here are some examples.
- "predicted that the main island would feel the effects of rain, strong winds, and high surf on October 15" - every storm produces rain, winds, and high surf along the coast.
- "Forecasters say that Raymond is larger than the the hurricane that pounded the island of Kauai two days before Thanksgiving the previous year and caused $234 million (1982 USD)." - how is this relevant to Raymond? Was its size ultimately important? No need to mention the bits about Iwa. It'd be one thing if it was the first storm since then, but Gil 83 has that honour.
- "A National Weather Service (NWS) assistant stated that Raymond may be "one of the most powerful hurricanes ever to enter this part of the Pacific"." - how is this preparations? And why is it important? Since it's not true. Ioke is the strongest storm in the CPAC. Even if it was at the time, that was 30 years ago, not exactly that relevant anymore.
- "Civil defense officials urged Hawaiian residents to begin preparing for the worst." - why is this worth mentioning? That's pretty typical for hurricanes.
- "A hurricane watch was issued for all islands on October 14" - you mentioned that earlier.
- "Meteorologists say that Raymond is capable of spawning thunderstorms before any actual arrival at a landmass. Moving at a speed of 15 mph (24 km/h), meteorologists predicted that Raymond was to reach the islands in about three days." - and?
That's only the preparations, and it shows how bloated the article is. It looks like a decent length, but when you look at the actual content, it's pretty scant. I would reconsider making the Raymond article, personally, since there is little additional good information than what is in the season section. --♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 22:54, 1 June 2013 (UTC)
- JG, I did you a favor and did an extensive copyedit. The above should not apply anymore. I am leaning toward a Raymond article atm, but I am still not 100% sure as I still need to see how an article-less season section would look like. YE Pacific Hurricane 03:08, 2 June 2013 (UTC)
'Abandoned' template documentation subpage
Hi, could you please delete (or otherwise modify) User:IPhonehurricane95/sandbox/Template:Hurricane Same Name/doc. It appears to be 'unused', and is being filed in Category:Documentation subpages without corresponding pages, which I am attempting to clean up. Thanks. Revent (talk) 20:29, 2 June 2013 (UTC)

Rollback request
Seriously, I'd advise you do some reversions before you ask for the rollback permission again. It's clear they're not going to give it to you. Make about 50 to 100 revisions and maybe they'll give it to you next time. NintendoFan (Talk, Contribs) 19:57, 8 June 2013 (UTC)
