- Note. DYK credit tool says you are exempt from the DYK requirement for quid pro quo, but for the future, do not post the article being reviewed as "Reviewed", because that's the field where you are supposed to present proof you are actually both submitting articles for review and making them yourself.

- Szmenderowiecki, thank for your feedback, in the future i will not do again since this is my first DYK nomination. HurricaneEdgar 09:44, 4 June 2022 (UTC)

Overall: It should be somehow clarified that said strongest landfall pertains to the Eastern Pacific coastline. (I know it is 'typhoons' in the western Pacific, but may as well be precise.) Also, was it definitely the strongest landfall anywhere in the eastern Pacific/American west coast, or just in Mexico? Because the sources seem to be split down the middle on this particular point.

- @HurricaneEdgar: I've suggested an alternative wording/sentence structure (much like in the AP piece). Let me know if that works for you. Iskandar323 (talk) 13:04, 9 June 2022 (UTC)
- Also, FYI, the first hook is ALT0, so the second is ALT1 and so forth - and if you want to add more, just add them directly below the first. Iskandar323 (talk) 13:06, 9 June 2022 (UTC)
Iskandar323, I think that first hook ALT0 is better because they reword. HurricaneEdgar 13:13, 9 June 2022 (UTC)
- Ok, great, thanks. Then I think it's good to go. Iskandar323 (talk) 13:18, 9 June 2022 (UTC)
