==Disambiguation link notification for May 10==

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited [[2015 Pacific typhoon season]], you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page [[Chuuk]]. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. <small>Read the [[User:DPL bot/Dablink notification FAQ|FAQ]]{{*}} Join us at the [[Wikipedia:Disambiguation pages with links|DPL WikiProject]].</small>

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these [[User:DPL bot|opt-out instructions]]. Thanks, [[User:DPL bot|DPL bot]] ([[User talk:DPL bot|talk]]) 09:29, 10 May 2015 (UTC)

== Do you need help? ==

It seems you're a little lost on what to do on Wikipedia. Do you need assistance? If so, I'll gladly guide you along. You have great enthusiasm toward hurricane articles, which is great! We can definitely use some of that around here. You just need to learn the ropes a bit more. ♫ [[User:Hurricanehink|Hurricanehink]] (<small>[[User_talk:Hurricanehink|talk]]</small>)  17:24, 12 December 2015 (UTC)

== GA review ==

Could you finish one of the GA reviews before "claiming" another one? You have five open, which prevents others from reviewing then, but you haven't done anything to them yet. [[User:Hurricanehink mobile|Hurricanehink mobile]] ([[User talk:Hurricanehink mobile|talk]]) 13:47, 19 November 2015 (UTC)

*I've reverted several of your recent "claims" to GA reviews, pending follow-ups to [[Talk:Typhoon Maysak (2015)/GA1]] and [[Talk:Tropical_Storm_Mekkhala_(2015)/GA1]], which you initiated several days ago. I appreciate your enthusiasm in tackling these reviews, but each one requires special attention, and it's not fair to the article writers to essentially stall multiple nominations while they await your comments. Thanks for your understanding, and if you need any help with the aforementioned GANs, feel free to ask. – '''[[User:Juliancolton|<span style="font-family:Script MT Bold;color:#36648B">Juliancolton</span>]]'''&nbsp;&#124;&nbsp;[[User_talk:Juliancolton|<sup><span style="font-family:Verdana;color:gray;text-shadow:gray .2em .18em .12em">''Talk''</span></sup>]] 19:10, 19 November 2015 (UTC)

:*As you have fewer than 200 edits on Wikipedia, and no prior experience in the Good Article space, let me point you to the [[WP:WIAGA|good article criteria]], and also to the [[WP:GAREVIEW]] page. As a beginning reviewer, it is strongly recommended that you start with one (or maybe two) reviews at a time, and not take on more until you have completed these. Also, it's suggested that you have a mentor look over your review before finalizing it, so what Juliancolton offers above is well worth taking advantage of. Best of luck. [[User:BlueMoonset|BlueMoonset]] ([[User talk:BlueMoonset|talk]]) 00:35, 20 November 2015 (UTC)

Hi, I've also deleted your empty GA review pages for the two articles I mentioned above, seeing as it's been ten days without any comments or even an indication of when you might begin the review. – '''[[User:Juliancolton|<span style="font-family:Script MT Bold;color:#36648B">Juliancolton</span>]]'''&nbsp;&#124;&nbsp;[[User_talk:Juliancolton|<sup><span style="font-family:Verdana;color:gray;text-shadow:gray .2em .18em .12em">''Talk''</span></sup>]] 18:11, 28 November 2015 (UTC)

I have just had to revert a clearly inadequate and improper listing of [[Typhoon Maysak (2015)]] as a Good Article based on the review at [[Talk:Typhoon Maysak (2015)/GA1]]. No [[WP:WIAGA|Good Article criteria]] are actually mentioned in the extremely brief review, although I mentioned them above, and a mentor was not engaged prior to approval although I strongly urged it be done and [[User:Juliancolton|Juliancolton]] had offered. While your enthusiasm for the process is appreciated, your lack of understanding of how it works and what it means is causing damage. I am formally requesting that you do not do any further reviews until you have gained considerably more experience here at Wikipedia, preferably including making a GA nomination of your own and seeing by virtue of having it reviewed what is involved from the other side, since you seem uninterested in working with a mentor on your own reviews. [[User:BlueMoonset|BlueMoonset]] ([[User talk:BlueMoonset|talk]]) 15:27, 12 December 2015 (UTC)

Just to confirm what [[User:BlueMoonset|BlueMoonset]] has said, I'd still like to help. Unfortunately, there's not much I can do until you've at least acknowledged some of these messages regarding your edits. You seem to have an interest in the GA process, but frankly, it's unlikely that any of your reviews will be allowed to stand until you've made an effort to communicate with more experienced reviewers. Since I'm certain that you must have seen your talk page notifications, I'm a little unclear on why you haven't responded to assure us of your good intentions. However, I get the impression that there may be a language barrier getting in the way. We encourage people from all regions and cultures to participate, but if you're not very comfortable with English, it might be more gratifying and productive for you to contribute to your native language Wikipedia. – '''[[User:Juliancolton|<span style="font-family:Script MT Bold;color:#36648B">Juliancolton</span>]]'''&nbsp;&#124;&nbsp;[[User_talk:Juliancolton|<sup><span style="font-family:Verdana;color:gray;text-shadow:gray .2em .18em .12em">''Talk''</span></sup>]] 17:45, 12 December 2015 (UTC)

== Warning ==

Your repeated malformed and incomplete GA reviews and review claims are disruptive, for the reasons outlined in the above threads. If you do not refrain from starting new reviews without soliciting the help of an experienced reviewer, you may be blocked from editing. – '''[[User:Juliancolton|<span style="font-family:Script MT Bold;color:#36648B">Juliancolton</span>]]'''&nbsp;&#124;&nbsp;[[User_talk:Juliancolton|<sup><span style="font-family:Verdana;color:gray;text-shadow:gray .2em .18em .12em">''Talk''</span></sup>]] 03:41, 13 December 2015 (UTC)

== FAC ==

I appreciate that you are acting in good faith, but it is best if {{#ifeq:FAC|FAC|[[Wikipedia:Featured articles|featured articles]]|[[Wikipedia:Featured lists|featured lists]]}} are nominated by people who have worked closely on them. In this way, they can give reasoned replies to reviewers and be familiar enough with the sources to act on suggested improvements. Someone who has not worked on the article can not provide this input, so the nomination may continue until opposition to it becomes so overwhelming that the article is failed; this takes away time from reviewers. While the [[Tropical Storm Thelma]] article is of reasonable quality, it is not yet of featured quality, and principal contributors must be consulted before a nomination, as required in the {{#ifeq:FAC|FAC|[[Wikipedia:Featured article candidates|featured article candidate instructions]]|[[Wikipedia:Featured list candidates|featured list candidate instructions]]}}. {{#if:  | You might consider first working the article up through [[Wikipedia:Peer review|peer review]] and [[Wikipedia:Good article nominations|good article candidacy]] to prepare for its nomination.}} --[[User:Laser_brain|<span style="color:purple;">'''Laser brain'''</span>]] [[User_talk:Laser_brain|<span style="color:purple;">(talk)</span>]] 10:52, 25 July 2016 (UTC)

== Inappropriate GA nominations ==

N-C16, you are currently nominating a large group of articles at GAN en masse, and these are articles, so far as I can determine, where you are not a significant contributor to the article. According to the [[WP:GANI|GA instructions]], people who have not worked on articles should not nominate them for GA status unless they have first consulted with the article's regular contributors, something you have not done.

Please stop nominating articles until you have obtained consensus that they are ready to do so. This is not the first time there have been issues with you at GA; you were doing invalid reviews last year. I strongly recommend that you proceed with caution and according to the rules. Thank you.

I am afraid I am going to have to revert your out-of-process nominations for the moment. Please proceed incrementally in future, not all at once. [[User:BlueMoonset|BlueMoonset]] ([[User talk:BlueMoonset|talk]]) 05:56, 25 July 2016 (UTC)

:You did this in [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk%3AEffects_of_Hurricane_Matthew_in_Haiti&type=revision&diff=744241278&oldid=743792264 this edit] to the [[Effects of Hurricane Matthew in Haiti]]. I've done most of the work to the article, and I know it isn't anywhere near time for a GA nomination. If you want to be helpful, try adding information in. I'm only one editor, trying to keep up with the sheer amount of information. ♫ [[User:Hurricanehink|Hurricanehink]] (<small>[[User_talk:Hurricanehink|talk]]</small>)  01:03, 14 October 2016 (UTC)

== Hurricane Gaston warnings ==

Please cool it with the warnings. While those edits which were restoring the [[Hurricane Gaston (2016)]] article were arguably unnecessary (as the information was better suited as a section of the main season article as Hurricanehink said), they are not the kinds of edits that should be responded to with vandalism warning templates. Some of those editors you warned are established users, and I can ensure you that their edits were vandalism. Additionally, those edits were days ago. [[User:Dustin V.

== [[Tropical Storm Agatha (2010)]] ==

Any reason why you moved that article back? It's unquestionably the most notable version of the store (similar to [[Cyclone Yali]]), so I don't see any point in having the year.

Yea, I moved it back. It is the most important storm named Agatha, so it should redirect here. Also, you should slow down on the move requests. I'm not sure if you knew, but there are really only about 10-15 regular editors involved in hurricane articles, and I'm including you in there. If you want a lot of articles moved, or want to talk about anything that affects multiple articles, you should post it on the [[WT:WPTC|talk page for WikiProject Tropical Cyclones]]. ♫ [[User:Hurricanehink|Hurricanehink]] (<small>[[User_talk:Hurricanehink|talk]]</small>)  01:46, 24 October 2016 (UTC)

==Disambiguation link notification for March 25==

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited [[Hurricane Franklin]], you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page [[GPM]] ([//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/Hurricane_Franklin check to confirm]&nbsp;|&nbsp;[//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab_solver.py/Hurricane_Franklin?client=notify fix with Dab solver]). Such links are [[WP:INTDABLINK|usually incorrect]], since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. <small>(Read the [[User:DPL bot/Dablink notification FAQ|FAQ]]{{*}} Join us at the [[Wikipedia:Disambiguation pages with links|DPL WikiProject]].)</small>

== Hurricane Opal ==

Rather than just saying "per Mario" and offering no real explanation for your revert at all (I do regret that my edit summary may have been impolite), please enlighten me as to how removing material on the warning history of that hurricane is helpful to readers. [[User:Master of Time|<span style="color:green; font-family:Times New Roman"><u>Master of Time</u></span>]]&nbsp;[[User talk:Master of Time|(<span style="color:green; font-family:Times New Roman">talk</span>)]] 04:13, 27 March 2018 (UTC)

Also, I didn't realize you were responsible for the original revert, else I would have taken more steps to avoid becoming embroiled in any kind of edit war. Regardless, that table takes up a ''very'' small amount of space, so I don't see how removing it is in any way helpful to readers. When people are interested in learning about a storm, we don't just list an external link pointing to a TCR; we write about it and put the statistics into tables.

== Satellite image edit warring ==

[[File:Ambox warning pn.svg|25px|alt=|link=]] This is a warning going out to all editors involved in the multitude of edit warring across [[WP:WPTC|WikiProject Tropical cyclones]]. This is a preemptive warning to cease the edit warring before another incident arises and the consequences of ignoring this warning will be enforced immediately. The endless reverting and replacing of images with or without valid rationale has reached the point of being disruptive. These edits are generally a waste of time and focus should be placed on the content of the article rather than a single image. Continued edit warring will result in [[Wikipedia:Banning policy|temporary bans]]—for 36 hours or longer—at the discretion of administrators. At the time of this warning, the project discussion on these images is still open and arguments within do not constitute project policy. ~ [[User:Cyclonebiskit|Cyclonebiskit]] ([[User talk:Cyclonebiskit|chat]]) 03:21, 28 June 2018 (UTC)

How long should the meteorological history section be before adding in subheadings in your opinion?

*Rollback should be used to revert ''clear'' cases of [[WP:VAND|''vandalism'']] ''only'', and not [[WP:AGF|good faith edits]].
*Rollback should never be used to [[WP:EDITWAR|edit war]].
*If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.

Hi B dash. I notice that you have recently been granted page mover status, and have been enjoying the new privilege. Please not that there is a ''very'' long standing consensus not to move existing articles about Australian places from "Place, <state>" to "Place". If you want to increase the proportion of articles with the shorter form of titles, please create new articles for the places that don't have one yet, and make the redirect from the longer form to your new articles.

In the last few weeks you've nominated nine (9) files I've uploaded for deletion of which: six (6) have been kept, one (1) will almost certainly be closed as keep, and the other two (2) were deleted because I didn't see them in the whirlwind of your deletion tagging and didn't get around to contesting the nomination.

The one remaining restriction in place is a requirement to only edit from a single account.  This should not be an onerous restriction, however, should you wish to lift this restriction then you must either return to the [[WP:AN|Administrator's notice board]] and make your case for this, explaining why an additional account or accounts are necessary, or, if you feel there are privacy concerns, to contact the [[WP:ARBCOM|Arbitration Committee]] privately.
