• Comment To be encyclopaedic, the diagram should not use the term hurricane. Charlesjsharp (talk) 22:05, 22 October 2018 (UTC)

• "hurricane" is used commonly in the articles. Bammesk (talk) 03:34, 23 October 2018 (UTC)

• Not in much of the pacific where typhoon or tropical cyclone are used. Charlesjsharp (talk) 07:48, 23 October 2018 (UTC)

• Yes there are other terms as well. "Hurricane" is used in above articles and elsewhere on Wikipedia, so I don't see it as a mistake or hindrance. Bammesk (talk) 02:22, 24 October 2018 (UTC)

• Oppose Should be Tropical Cyclone, not hurricane, since this formation can occur in the Pacific. Mattximus (talk) 15:00, 27 October 2018 (UTC)
