This topic is already featured. It is also being re-nominated to remove items which are no longer part of the topic. See Wikipedia:Featured topic candidates/Retired Pacific hurricanes for the archived discussion of the topic's successful nomination. The removed items are:

  1. Hurricane Fefa
  2. Hurricane Fico

The tropical cyclone Wikiproject had a discussion link, and we came to the agreement that two articles in the topic (Fico and Fefa) should not be considered retired Pacific hurricane names. We got confirmation from the National Hurricane Center that they were likely not retired. I'm not sure how to remove items from a topic, but I hope I did this right. If there is a problem, then I can omit the two removals for this topic addition.

Also, this spring, the World Meteorological Organization retired Tropical Storm Alma, which the project quickly got to GA status. So, this is where the topic lies today. ♬♩ Hurricanehink (talk) 17:48, 4 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Just a quick note, the image has been updated. Hopefully there are no more concerns. ♬♩ Hurricanehink (talk) 01:37, 8 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - I note that both of the removed articles still say that they're names are retired and have the retired hurricanes template at the bottom. It should be consistent. --PresN 18:11, 4 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    • Actually, per the project agreement, I removed the template and info saying those two were retired. The data we have available do not confirm its retirement, rather that it was only removed, and the email we got from the NHC leans toward the names being removed, not retired. ♬♩ Hurricanehink (talk) 18:15, 4 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
