Welcome!

Welcome to the Tropical Cyclone Wikiproject. I'm glad you finally decided to join ;) Hurricanehink (talk) 17:52, 24 June 2006 (UTC)

Well, you were being bugged because a lot of your work is one the articles. How come you're making your own newsletter? You should just join in on the existing newsletter. Good luck with Erika. Be sure to add a lot of info in it before publishing it, and let me know when you're done. Hurricanehink (talk) 18:13, 24 June 2006 (UTC)

It's still pretty short, but you can find some storm history in the NHC report. Hurricanehink (talk) 18:32, 24 June 2006 (UTC)

Alright, I'll go point by point. First, I've asked you hundreds of times, so one more can't hurt. Why don't you concentrate your efforts on an article that needs improving before publishing a low-quality article? If you must publish Erika, and I mean must, here's some things you can do. First, learn how to spell. The spelling and grammar is poor throughout, and not just articles. I'm sorry, but you need to start typing better. Many times I can't understand what you are saying. By that, you need to give the article a thorough copyedit and improve phrasing throughout. Imagine if you were writing an English essay, and you had to use your best spelling and grammar. When articles are written with a lot of errors, it takes away from what the storm actually did, and makes merging much more tempting. Next, consider following the suggestions I gave out a few weeks ago. I'll post it after this post. The areas affected is too long, the intro is too short, the storm history doesn't flow well, the impact section doesn't have enough, and the naming and records is pointless. Trivia, by definition, is useless information, so anything in a trivia section is not needed. You should integrate that information more into the article. For example, when Erika became a major hurricane, you could say, "Erika continued to intensify and attained major hurricane status, the first and only major hurricane of the season". That fact could also be mentioned in the intro, and could be expanded further to say that the last season with only one major hurricane was the 1993. Everything else in the naming and records section isn't really needed. Please read all of this, as it's important to your writing, and please don't just respond with a one sentence answer. OK, here's the suggestions. Hurricanehink (talk) 03:15, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

I understand you're 15, but this is an encyclopedia. You need to be able to write well. This place isn't a hobby. This is a professional place for writing. If you can type well, you should do it. There's no need to rush. Simply put, you need to make a better effort in your writinh. Hurricanehink (talk) 02:01, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

Well, two sentences is hardly a paragraph. You don't need to list every single island. Simply say Lesser Antilles, or even Leeward Islands. In addition, there's not really enough information in there to justify an article. Look at the seasonal article. Would a separate article for Erika really be needed? Is there that much useful information that is not in the Erika section? Hurricanehink (talk) 03:01, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

Nice job with those two articles. --Hurricanehink (talk) 21:23, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

You know what, why don't you just publish Erika, and see what people think of it? --Hurricanehink (talk) 12:52, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

Well, it seems like you are listening to me, but you should talk to others when creating articles. I still don't think it is that good, and I think it should be merged as it is, but we'll see what others think of it. I have very high standards for articles, and anything below them should be merged in my opinion. Others think differently, so we'll see. --Hurricanehink (talk) 21:58, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

2005 AHS Card Game?

What's with that thing that sounds like a card game, with each storm of the 2005 AHS having its own card? It looks kinda cool. íslenska hurikein #12_(samtal) 18:45, 24 June 2006 (UTC)

huh? Also, I added my name to the newsletter list of yours. Thanks for mentioning me :) About those cards; are you gonna make cards and scan them onto your computer and then post them on your userpage so people can print them out and use them? I don't get why you wrote about them on your userpage, but they look cool. I want to play :P íslenska hurikein #12_(samtal) 19:02, 24 June 2006 (UTC)

Cool. But I still want to play! íslenska hurikein #12_(samtal) 19:06, 24 June 2006 (UTC)

Your newsletter

It looks great so far. Maybe add a graphic of Matthew in the newsletter? :) -- RattleMan 19:19, 24 June 2006 (UTC)

Matthew Article

I was looking at your LNBS page and when I came upon Matthew, I realized that the storm history you have for Matthew is more complete than the actual article. I wouldn't completely copy and paste your storm history into the article, but if I were you, I would add a lot of the detail in your article that the real article is missing, particularily the origins of the storm and the remnants and how they split up and remerged. Good luck with that! íslenska hurikein #12_(samtal) 22:48, 24 June 2006 (UTC)

Tropical cyclones WikiProject Newsletter #2

The July issue of the WikiProject Tropical cyclones newsletter is now available. If you wish to receive the full newsletter or no longer be informed of the release of future editions, please add your username to the appropriate section on the mailing list.--Nilfanion (talk) 00:57, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

Re: SS1 (1982)

Yea, that would be an interesting article. It would be the first article for a subtropical storm. Hopefully there is enough information out there, though. --Hurricanehink (talk) 00:20, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
