Todo[edit]

This is a solid start-class article. It needs a little more to be B-class: Some more info about records/Cat 5ness/impact if any is available, as well as a longer lead that includes something about impact/naming section. All in all not far from B-class. Miss Madeline | Talk to Madeline 00:02, 20 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It appears to still be a work in progress. Struck through until it is "finished" so a fair todoing can be given. Miss Madeline | Talk to Madeline 00:09, 20 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I thought I was done, but I was busy addressing the issues you have pointed out. I added a tad about the records and statistics, so just check back every so often to see how it is coming along. Thanks. Juliancolton The storm still blows... 00:12, 20 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, I added some records and statistics and what impact I could find. Does it need anything else? Juliancolton The storm still blows... 00:55, 20 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
It's close to B-class. Dates (of the source's creation if available, not the day the reference was accessed) should be added to web/news references (like this: date=yyyy-mm-dd), and make sure that all instances of category (in the context of the SSHS) are capialized, as well as measurements having nbsp's. It could also use somewhat of a copyedit. I'm going to ask for a second opinion. Miss Madeline | Talk to Madeline 01:14, 20 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I was originally working on a Hernan article. Seeing as you did it before me, I guess I can offer some of the sources I had saved for my article. First, Hernan's remnants were responsible for showers in California that caused slippery roads as per [1], but original predictions had it causing storms, winds, cooling temperatures, and scattered cloudiness per [2]. Finally (here's something you could use for DYK), when Hernan rapidly intensified from named storm to Cat 5, its rate was 1.73 mbar per hour, just under the threshhold for what is considered "rapid intensification", but for a 12 hour period from the 31st to Sept. 1st, it deepened at a rate of 2.58 mbar; within range of "explosive deepening". Source for that is [3] and for the ranges of RI and ED, you can use the glossary of terms on NHC's site here [4]. (EDIT: Didn't know it was already proposed for DYK. It's ok then. Also, if you wish to use it, I have a TRMM image of Hernan on Commons you can use in the article. It's this one.‎) Hurricane Angel Saki My own personal NHC 03:41, 20 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, those really help. I will add those when I get the chance. Juliancolton The storm still blows... 19:17, 20 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

(indent reset) I added the picture. Miss Madeline | Talk to Madeline 01:54, 21 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. Also, I have been copyediting it somewhat, so it should be better writing-wise. Juliancolton The storm still blows... 21:25, 22 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]


Good article nomination on hold[edit]

This article's Good Article promotion has been put on hold. During review, some issues were discovered that can be resolved without a major re-write. This is how the article, as of March 9, 2008, compares against the six good article criteria:

1. Well written?: Pass
2. Factually accurate?: References in the lead section, almost everyone forgets those
3. Broad in coverage?: Effects on shipping?
4. Neutral point of view?: Pass
5. Article stability? Pass
6. Images?: Pass, nice images


Overall great article, just needs refs in the lead section, and needs to mention any effects on shipping.

Please address these matters soon and then leave a note here showing how they have been resolved. After 48 hours the article should be reviewed again. If these issues are not addressed within 7 days, the article may be failed without further notice. Thank you for your work so far. Southern Illinois SKYWARN (talk) 21:32, 9 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
