Information icon Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give a page a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into Tropical Storm Cristobal (2020). This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you. 🐔 Chicdat ChickenDatabase 13:54, 4 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Chicdat: Can you please delete the draft article? Thanks, Destroyeraa (talk) 13:56, 4 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
No. I'm not an admin. 🐔 Chicdat ChickenDatabase 16:14, 4 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Chicdat:Hurricanehink deleted the redirect, I believe. He moved the draft to the main article space. Thanks anyway for your help. I kinda got a bit impatient and wanted the draft to become an article so badly that I disregarded Wikipedia rules. Sorry. Destroyeraa (talk) 17:00, 4 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Editing and such

Hi there Destroyeraa, I've seen your edits lately, and I can tell you have a passion for tropical cyclones. I was wondering if you needed any help with editing, learning the ropes, how to make a good article, anything like that. Hopefully you're having fun editing :) Yea, there are a lot of rules, but you'll get the hang of things eventually (if you haven't already!) ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 13:35, 5 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Hurricanehink: Thanks. Yes, I have fun editing, and time editing, especially during this pandemic. I appreciate your offer to help newish editors like me. If I have anything to ask you about, I will post it on your talk page. Destroyeraa 01:44, 6 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Yea, I've noticed a lot more editors these days! We can always use the help organizing all of the info about TCs. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 13:42, 6 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the barnstar! I was curious, what aspect of tropical cyclones are you interested in? Any particular basin or time period? ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 15:05, 6 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I'm interested in mainly Atlantic tropical cyclones, since I, like you, live on the Eastern coast of the United States. Destroyeraa 18:03, 6 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Good thing the Atlantic has over 800 articles. There are tons of older storms that need work, and a handful in the past few years. Are you interested in improving articles to good article status? That's the goal for most articles, covering the important details of the storm and writing it out well. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 19:39, 6 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Hurricanehink:Sure, which articles are stubs or starts and need improving? Can you post some links on my talk page? Destroyeraa 19:48, 6 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Tagging of Draft:Tropical Depression One-E (2020)

I recently removed a speedy delete tag that you had placed on Draft:Tropical Depression One-E (2020). I do not think that Draft:Tropical Depression One-E (2020) fits any of the speedy deletion criteria  because This seems to be a reasonable initial edit towards a possibly valid article , which is what drafts are for. If you wish, you may try using the simple proposed deletion (PROD) process, or the full articles for deletion (AfD) process, instead. DES (talk)DESiegel Contribs 16:43, 28 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@DESiegel: The subject of the article is not notable as per WP:NOTABLE. The article needs to be deleted. Destroyeraa (talk) 17:04, 28 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Lack of notability is not a valid ground for deletion of a draft, nor for the speedy deletion of any page. Please read or re-read Wikipedia:Deletion policy and Wikipedia:Drafts, particularly Wikipedia:Drafts#Deleting_a_draft which says: Drafts are not subject to article deletion criteria like "no context" or no indication of notability so creators may have time to establish notability and make other improvements. Drafts may be nominated for deletion at Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion (MfD), but not solely because the draft fails to show that the notability guidelines are satisfied. This draft was recently started, allow the editor to work on it, and attempt to demonstrate notability. It may not be possible -- the topic may in fact not be notable. But there is no reason to delete at this point, and tagging for speedy deletion in such a case violates WP:BITE in my view. This was certainly not a "test edit" and the speedy deletion criteria are to be construed quite strictly. That policy page says: Administrators should take care not to speedily delete pages or media except in the most obvious cases. ... Before nominating a page for speedy deletion, consider whether it could be improved, reduced to a stub, merged or redirected elsewhere, reverted to a better previous revision, or handled in some other way (see Wikipedia:Deletion policy § Alternatives to deletion).

Re: Drafts

Hi there, regarding the drafts. Draft space doesn't really count for much, but I don't think any of them will become an article. It would be like if someone had a sandbox for each of those articles. You could always propose to redirect them to the season article, if they're a concern. Regarding the last one, what you wrote is a brief summary of what is already located at tropical cyclone. Indeed, Hurricane redirects to the TC article, which covers, in great detail and with fantastic sourcing, all of the components of a tropical cyclone, the scales, etc. So your proposed draft wouldn't add anything new to an already featured article.

Are you perhaps looking for a project you can work on, that you know your edits will be valuable and not redirected/deleted? ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 15:33, 2 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

No, I don't think any of those drafts could become articles, including Dolly. Anything that would have two paragraphs of info can fit fine in the season section. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 00:36, 3 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Do you need any suggestions for a topic you can work on? Might I suggest something like List of Puerto Rico hurricanes or List of Category 1 Atlantic hurricanes. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 20:10, 3 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The problem with List of C1 Atlantic hurricanes is that you didn't include any examples. Check out other list articles, like List of Category 3 Atlantic hurricanes. There are a lot of storms to add. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 13:50, 4 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Hurricanehink: I'm a bit busy right now this week - I'll start cracking at it during the weekend. Destroyeraa 21:23, 7 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

List of Category 1 Atlantic hurricanes

Destroyeraa, it's hard to do huge articles by yourself, and if you're determined to finish List of Category 1 Atlantic hurricanes, then it will take quite a while. I'm saying this from experience, namely List of intense tropical cyclones, List of extremely severe cyclonic storms, and List of Category 2 Atlantic hurricanes, so I'm moving the Category 1 list into your userspace. Most readers don't want to see an unfinished list in mainspace, but it's fine for it to be at User:Destroyeraa/sandbox or User:Destroyeraa/Category 1. Thanks, 🐔 Chicdat ChickenDatabase 10:05, 4 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hey there Destroyeraa, do you need help getting your sandbox started? ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 18:30, 7 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Fay

Regarding this edit, how come you removed the content from the preparations section? ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 13:36, 10 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Hurricanehink: So sorry Hink, I didn't realize that I had removed content. I immediately went to sleep after that edit, so I forgot to check. Destroyeraa 14:17, 10 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
It's alright, I figured it was an accident. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 14:22, 10 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

So for Fay, I saw you're editing it now, I am too; I didn't realize that. Anyway, I saw you added the flash flood watch for New England, but that wasn't in the source that was in the preps section. So if you want to add info, make sure you include the reference, like you did for that tweet about Fay's origins. I removed the reference to Edouard, because it doesn't appear to be related to Fay. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 15:23, 10 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Hurricanehink: There really isn't much news on Fay's impacts right now, but I see people posting videos of street flooding in NJ and Delaware on Twitter. Should I include that?

Anyway, the winds for Fay are really picking up. According to the NHC, Fay's winds have increased to 60 miles per hour (97 km/h). Starting to look like Sandy a bit in this picture. Destroyeraa 16:38, 10 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

There is already flooding going on in Delaware and New jersey. Look for road and beach closures, that's how I found the beach closure in Delaware. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 20:11, 10 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Scuttling of the German fleet at Scapa Flow

Hi there. I see you restoring links to Scotland in the text. Per WP:OVERLINK we don't do that. Quite apart from the recommendation in MoS not to link countries, you should ask yourself who the link is likely to benefit. Anyone reading the article who is curious to find out more about the country where it took place is only one click away from a link to it, either via the Scapa Flow article or the Orkney one, and adding loads of low-value links like this one makes it harder for people to find ones which will be more useful. I hope that makes sense. --84.64.249.140 (talk) 12:58, 18 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Here is the replacement typhoon names.

Aftermath of Hurricane Hanna

Dude just because you don’t want an aftermath does not mean it’s not happening. It’s only been 2 days since Hanna and the recovery is ongoing and there was much more information to be put in. Stop removing the aftermath section. People need to know what’s going on when they read that page not what you think is going on. I ask you to consider this. ~ Sincerely, Super Robloxsupersuperhappyface (talk) 16:06, 27 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Robloxsupersuperhappyface: An aftermath section is not justified. JUst adding a few sentences does not justify a whole section. Hurricane Dorian has an aftermath section because there are paragraphs of information and many sources and it was a Category 5 hurricane. Hanna didn't caused unknown damage, only killed one person, and, to be honest, was just like Barry 2019 (Barry didn't have an aftermath section ICYMI). The information that you put in the aftermath section can fit in the impacts section. Thanks. ~ Destroyeraa (talk|Contribs) 16:12, 27 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

But Barry is different than Hanna. Hanna had a huge storm surge and caused devastating flash flooding so it may take weeks to asses damage but the recovery is still ongoing. Barry is way less destructive than Hanna. Robloxsupersuperhappyface (talk) 17:12, 27 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Robloxsupersuperhappyface: First, I want to thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. You have been contributing a lot on the subject of tropical cyclones, so I recommend you join WikiProject Tropical cyclones.

For Hanna, I think we can consider adding the aftermath section on the talk page of Hanna. More information in the coming days may justify the addition of that section, but please ask for the consensus after you have stated your points. ~ Destroyeraa (talk|Contribs) 18:29, 27 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Ok thanks for understanding and I’ll keep watching the news here in Corpus since I got hit by Hanna. Thanks Robloxsupersuperhappyface (talk) 19:11, 27 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I'm so sorry to hear that you have been hit by Hurricane Hanna, Robloxsupersuperhappyface. I hope you and your family recover quickly from the storm. Stay safe! ~ Destroyeraa (talk|Contribs) 19:15, 27 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

We already got power and there was barely any damage most of the damage was way out there on the beach Robloxsupersuperhappyface (talk) 21:58, 27 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Robloxsupersuperhappyface, I'm happy to hear that. Looking at photos and videos on the web, damage looks pretty severe near the beach areas south of Corpus Christi. Although I live by the ocean (New Jersey), I am lucky to have missed Hurricane Sandy when it ravaged NJ and surrounding areas. However, a few weeks ago, we were hit by TS Fay, but that only brought around a foot of flooding. Stay safe.~ Destroyeraa (talk|Contribs) 13:22, 28 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
