List of storms named Michael has been listed by Wikipedia:WikiProject Weather as an Set Index Article (SIA). It is important to note that SIAs are NOT disambiguations. Unlike disambiguations, SIAs are intended to provide both navigation and information rather than just the former. Keep in mind that SIAs are subject to verifiability and thus content within them must be sourced as a result. If you can improve this SIA further, please do so.

Not a dab page

@Jasper Deng: You reverted page move with comment: "this is not a set index article, and you didn't even capitalize this correctly. Long-standing WP:WPTC consensus is titles of this form".

This is in fact a set index article, not a disambiguation page. Please see WP:SIANOTDAB. Hurricanes named Michael are of one type: hurricanes. Note how the page is categorized. It's in Category:Set indices on storms. I didn't put it there; it was already categorized that way - and that is correct. A dab page is tagged with {{disambiguation}} and this page is not so tagged.

You refer to "long-standing WP:WPTC consensus", and I suggest you read it, specifically WP:WikiProject Tropical cyclones#Storm_set_index_articles. It says clearly that "All tropical cyclones of the same name should be visible through a set index article (e.g. List of tropical storms named Dean)." This is exactly what I am doing with the page move to "List of hurricanes named Michael". I suggest moving to that name.

You should also read the last bullet in that section that refers to how {{hurricane disambig}} has been deprecated. May you were unaware of the deprecation.

Also, if it isn't clear, again as per "long-standing consensus" the reason to use the descriptive title "List of..." is because Hurricane Michael is a primary topic.

Finally, regarding "didn't even [sic] capitalize this correctly", you're right, "hurricane" should not have been capitalized. Touché.Coastside (talk) 06:08, 18 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hurricane Michael (disambiguation) → List of hurricanes named Michael – This is not a disambiguation page; it's a set index article. Relevant policy is at WP:SIANOTDAB and WP:WikiProject Tropical cyclones#Storm_set_index_articles. All of the entries are of one type, i.e., hurricanes. There is also additional content pertaining to the topic - it's not just a list of terms to be disambiguated. The established policy at WP:WPTC explains how to name Storm set index articles, and this requested move is in accordance with that policy. Coastside (talk) 18:56, 18 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Support. The guidance (not policy) of the Wikiproject isn't particularly clear because the example in the guidance, List of tropical storms named Dean, is in fact a redirect to Tropical Storm Dean, but I take the point that if Hurricane Michael 2018 is a primary topic then the others need to be listed as an SIA at another title.
