editHello Iseriously and welcome to Wikipedia! We appreciate encyclopedic contributions, but some of your contributions do not conform to our policies. For more information on this, see Wikipedia's policies on vandalism and limits on acceptable additions. If you'd like to experiment with the wiki's syntax, please do so in the sandbox (but beware that the contents of the sandbox are deleted frequently) rather than in articles.
If you still have questions, there is a new contributors' help page, or you can to ask for help on your talk page, and a volunteer should respond shortly. You may also find the following pages useful for a general introduction to Wikipedia.
I hope you enjoy editing and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~

editHi, I reverted your edit on 2019 Atlantic hurricane season because saying "hurricane season began today" is only accurate on Jun 1, 2019, and would then be dependent on someone noticing and changing it when it was no longer June 1. By using the date, it doesn't need to be fixed tomorrow, and it isn't ambiguous. A reader seeing "today" has to ask "when was this written?" to know when "today" is referring to. Schazjmd (talk) 14:17, 1 June 2019 (UTC)
Please stop your disruptive editing. Some of your recent edits constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you continue to make disruptive edits, as you did at 1951 Atlantic hurricane season, you may be blocked from editing. LightandDark2000 🌀 (talk) 22:26, 1 June 2019 (UTC)
User page
editHi, I've noticed your user page and figured you might not be aware of the guidelines for Wikipedia user pages. Although you're welcome to create subpages in your user space in order to draft articles, what you're doing on your user page right now with your fictional weather stuff is using Wikipedia as a host. I suggest you save your work off of Wikipedia because eventually someone is going to delete it. Schazjmd (talk) 01:25, 29 December 2019 (UTC)
Your submission at Articles for creation: Tropical cyclones in 2009 (September 22)

editThe Tireless Contributor Barnstar | |
Thanks for your work in Tropical cyclones in 2006 (your first article), Tropical cyclones in 2007, Tropical cyclones in 2011 and others - which would take a lot of work personally for me. Keep up your work on Tropical cyclones in 2009! Once you are done, don't expect me to move your work like what i did in Tropical cyclones in 2006. Instead, you can submit your work to AfC and hopefully the AfC review will be done fast enough and that draft will be accepted instead of being rejected like previously. SMB99thx my edits 01:40, 26 September 2020 (UTC) |
Good Job
editGood job on Tropical cyclones in 2009. The Global Atmospheric and Hydrological Conditions should focus more on the conditions leading to storm formation (or lack thereof) rather than the activity itself. By this, I am meaning Ocean Heat Content, Sea Surface Temperatures, Vertical Wind Shear, etc. Don't forget about the Southern Hemisphere! There is also the Southern Indian Ocean and the South Pacific. Moving on, make sure you add references for all the damage and deaths for each storm. Each month should have a paragraph or so of text detailing the notable storms throughout the month. Lastly, when we were discussing the structure of these pages a couple of years ago, I had thought that the Global Effects section could also have text discussing TC impacts during the year on a continental scale. As others have said, Wikipedia really isn't about recognition as it is creating quality articles. I have gotten nine articles to featured status and another six to good article. Most of the time, I don't get recognition for doing that. In the end, I think what's really important is creating a quality article that someone can read to get a clear picture of what happened.

edit Hello Iseriously, and thank you for your contributions! I just wanted you to know that your userpage is in violation of Wikipedia policies. Your userpage is not to be used as a web host nor an article space. That means, your userpage cannot resemble the Tropical cyclones in xxxx and 2020 North Indian Ocean cyclone season articles. WP:USERPAGE states that Userspace is not a free web host and should not be used to indefinitely host pages that look like articles, old revisions, or deleted content, or your preferred version of disputed content. Pages that look like articles outside of mainspace should not be indexed for search engines. When a userspace page reaches a point where it can be included as an article consider moving it into mainspace or using its content appropriately in other relevant articles. {{Userpage blanked}} may be added to such pages that have not been edited for a considerable amount of time.
In addition, please do not add hypothetical information, or hoxes, to Wikipedia, even if it is on your userpage. Please read WP:USERPAGE, WP:WEBHOST, and {{ping}} me if you have any questions. Thank you. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 00:10, 1 October 2020 (UTC)
- Also, hasn't another user warned you of this before? Please don't do it again. Thanks.~ Destroyeraa🌀 00:10, 1 October 2020 (UTC)
Also, a note about source. Please don't add things like known on social media as Zombie Storm Paulette because that is both disruptive and unsourced. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 22:57, 4 October 2020 (UTC)

The Hurricane Herald: 15th Anniversary Edition!
The Hurricane Herald is the semi-regular newsletter of WikiProject Tropical Cyclones. The newsletter aims to provide in summary the recent activities and developments of the WikiProject, in addition to global tropical cyclone activity. The Hurricane Herald has been running since its first edition ran on June 4, 2006. If you wish to receive or discontinue subscription to this newsletter, please visit the mailing list. This issue of The Hurricane Herald covers all project related events from September 1–October 5, 2020, which is the 15th anniversary of the WPTC. This edition's editors and authors are ChessEric, Chicdat, Destroyeraa, Hurricanehink, and our member of the month, SMB99thx! Please visit this page and bookmark any suggestions of interest to you. This will help improve the newsletter and other cyclone-related articles. Past editions can be viewed here. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
WikiProject Tropical Cyclones: News & Developments
New articles since the last newsletter include:
New GA's include: WikiProject To-Do
Storm of the month and other tropical activity for September (and the first 5 days of October) Ianos, was a Mediterranean tropical-like cyclone, also known as a Medicane. The Mediterranean isn't officially a tropical cyclone basin, so there aren't any official intensity estimates for the storm. The system originated from a low pressure area north of Libya, and it developed organized convection while moving northeastward. On September 18, Ianos struck the Greek island of Cephalonia, and later moved across the Greek mainland. The World Meteorological Organization mentioned the medicane and its similarities to tropical cyclones. Although these medicanes are unofficial, Wikipedia covers them like other tropical cyclones, using the same reliable sources and news articles to document the event. As Ianos was created, not many users edited it, as coverage of tropical cyclones and storms outside of main development regions are, unfortunately, low. However, as Ianos was nominated and posted at ITN, a current news section on the main page, many users outside of the TC WikiProject began working on it, As these storms are becoming more common and better documented, these storms may be officially classified in the future.
Member of the month (edition) – SMB99thx SMB99thx first joined Wikipedia in 2013, but didn't officially join the WPTC until August 2020. Since then, they have been a prolific contributor, helping with less visible pages such as project talk pages, or splitting older season articles in the North Indian Ocean and the Western Pacific. They are a such a tireless contributor and kind user, who appreciates others' contributions while being humble about their own. It was SMB99thx who gave barnstars along with kind and encouraging messages to countless other WPTC contributors and Wikipedians. SMB99thx also worked on several lists, including area affects lists, various drafts, and List of named storms (T). We'll take that T and say TY to SMB99thx for all of their contributions, and wish them luck at college. New WikiProject Members since the last newsletter More information can be found here. This list lists members who have joined/rejoined the WikiProject since the release of the last issue. Sorted chronologically.
To our new members: welcome to the project, and happy editing! Feel free to check the to-do list at the bottom right of the newsletter for things that you might want to work on. To our veteran members: thank you for your edits and your tireless contributions!
From September 1 to October 5, one featured article was promoted: From the Main Page documents WikiProject related materials that have appeared on the main page from September 1–October 5, 2020 in chronological order. There is currently one featured article candidate: How WikiProject Tropical cyclones should move forward by SMB99thx As we have seen in the month of August and September, there is a surge of new articles. Most of these new articles are season/decade articles and Pacific typhoon articles, and most of these articles are assessed by me as either Start-class or Stub-class. These articles I believe would have been rejected by WikiProject Tropical cyclones in the earlier years (especially 2008-2012) - and these reflected the changes in WikiProject Tropical cyclones after I joined in July 2020. In order to counteract that surge of Start-class and Stub-class articles in recent months, I have been closely working on the Article requests page (used to be a primary contributor of the surge that happened in August and September), trying to make this recently-extended WikiProject 15th anniversary as some serious effort as well as revamping WikiProject To-Do (and completing some, but not all tasks) - and the results of my work on these three projects led into the explosive growth of the WikiProject Tropical cyclones draftspace (I tried to prevent this by publishing the half-finished drafts into mainspace (which is primarily composed of C-class with some speck of Start-class articles coming out of it, and these are the ones that aren't as obviously unfinished like Draft:Effects of Hurricane Dorian on the Mainland United States), and made several drafts on articles that are not considered notable like Draft:Hurricane Barbara (2019) into redirects or deleted, but there is less kinds of these drafts now) as well as discovery of several drafts that isn't done by this point or are not listed as part of WikiProject Tropical cyclones. These drafts are later linked to the Article requests page. I don't my work is done yet, and in order to consider that effectively done, I need to get these drafts done and submitted as C-class or higher. However, there is a personal problem I had to face in order to getting this work done when I'm still new to WikiProject Tropical cyclones. Article creation from drafts are not my strength. I create articles mostly from splits, not from drafts. As such, I consider article creation from drafts to be personally tedious work. As our 15th anniversary gets near, it appears that things are changing. As the draft space exploded, it appears fellow WikiProject Tropical cyclones are helping me out in getting these drafts complete, especially Destroyeraa (helping me out in deciding which drafts can pass the cut), ChessEric (working on Draft:Tropical Storm Noul (2020)), Robloxsupersuperhappyface (for developing current events articles, alongside ChessEric), I like hurricanes (Tropical cyclone lists), Chicdat (for the work on Tropical cyclones in 2002 and will probably work on others), Janm 7 (for working on Tropical cyclones in 2011 and 2003), and Iseriously (for useful season summaries, and this isn't a WPTC member!). I also began to frequently give out barnstars to these hard-working people like Jason Rees and Hurricanehink. These events led me to believe that, if this WikiProject has to move forward then in my opinion this WikiProject should:
Thanks for reading this opinion piece! And happy 15th anniversary, WikiProject Tropical cyclones! OPINION PIECE - by ChessEric Accuracy has always been one of my biggest sticking points when it comes to editing on Wikipedia. When I came here back in April, my first edit was a revert of misinformation on the 2020 Easter tornado outbreak article. Of course, I understand that as a relatively new user, I still have a lot to learn and I don't profess to know everything, even after I started several large projects that I will probably be working on for quite some time. My first tornado outbreak pages used only the Tornado History Projects which, while generally good for tornado tracks, provides no damage info and if weren't for editors like CapeVerdeWave and Halls4521, my "breakthrough" articles would be so incomplete. However, I've been able to research more and more and find ways to complete these articles and that has carried over into the tropical cyclone projects as well. My thing has always been is that If I can't find a source for it, then it's not true. I will continue to follow that motto and hope that others will do the same. Current assessment table Assessments valid as of this printing. Depending on when you may be viewing this newsletter, the table may be outdated. See here for the latest, most up to date statistics.
Comparison of 2005 and 2020 WikiProject Tropical cyclones was founded on October 5, 2005. By that time, Wikipedia had its small share of articles, including the four deadly hurricanes that hit the United States in 2004. The hyperactive 2005 Atlantic hurricane season featured a series of deadly and historic hurricanes, the first of which was Hurricane Dennis. This is how the article looked on 10/5/05. It might not look like much, considering how much larger storm articles tend to be today. However, Dennis quickly became a featured article by February 2006. Its quality showed a marked improvement from the 2004 hurricanes. For comparison, here is what Hurricane Charley looked like on 10/5/05, with barely any references, no preparations, no aftermath, and one sentence worth of impact for a location with $1 billion in damage. The busy 2005 season featured Hurricane Katrina, and in the aftermath of the storm, dozens of articles related to the hurricane were created. Some still exist, such as Katrina refrigerator, Memorial Medical Center and Hurricane Katrina, and Effect of Hurricane Katrina on the Louisiana Superdome. I don't know if those hyper-specific articles would be created today, and many of these old articles are still of low quality. On the other hand, one of the most notable changes since 2005 is the improvement in articles throughout Wikipedia, both new and old. Every Atlantic season from 1945 to 2019 is a good article, and all but 31 seasons since 1851 are a good article. More impressive is how much other basins around the world have improved. As of June 2006 (the oldest date for our assessment tables), the EPAC only had articles back to 1970, WPAC with yearly articles back to 1945 (with a rump article for everything beforehand - there are now decade articles going back to 1850), and the NIO only had one yearly season article (with five-yearly articles going back to 1980, and one rump article for everything beforehand), with only six storm articles. There are now yearly NIO articles going back to 1960. Also as of June 2006, all SHEM storms were put into yearly articles going back to 1995, with three five-yearly articles going back to 1980, and then one article for everything beforehand. The SHEM is now split into its three sub-basins (plus a distinct article for SATL storms), with yearly articles back to 1970. There are also now yearly articles for tropical cyclones back to 2009. 15 years might not feel like much, or for some of you it's an entire lifetime. Users should be reminded of eventualism, in work will improve over time, especially with sustained editor attention. There are now over 2,000 articles in the project, versus less than 500 15 years ago, or 1000 10 years ago, or 1500 13 years ago. The project's growth hasn't always been even, but it has trended toward inclusion, with hundreds of articles that are the best resources available anywhere on a given storm/season/topic. As Mother Nature throws us hyperactive seasons, it will be difficult, but not impossible, to keep up with the annual cycle of tropical cyclone activity, so the world can remain informed of these swirling furies. Project Goals & Progress The following is the current progress on the three milestone goals set by the WikiProject as of this publishing. They can be found, updated, at the main WikiProject page.

Hi Iseriously! Welcome back after a two week break. Since you helped us greatly at completing the Tropical cyclones in 2009 and Tropical cyclones in 2006, would you like to complete this draft here? It is one of the many requested articles on WPTC and the editor who planned to finish this, Janm 7 backed out after his submission got rejected. Currently I'm focusing on my college and I will not be able to get that draft done. I want to focus on Tropical cyclones in 2008, Tropical cyclones in 2014, and my other drafts.

- If I'm being honest, 2020 is about my second-worst year in my life, just behind 2009, which was obviously MJ's death year, which is what made 2009 the worst for me, and not a surprise at all, A Swine Flu Pandemic came along and made 2009 even worse. The good thing about 2009 was the music produced by the Black Eyed Peas; they were awesome, and the very inactive hurricane season that year. 2009 still sucked for me, but whatever. I think y'all understand my concept. Iseriously (talk) 22:37, 23 November 2020 (UTC)
- I understand what you are saying now. To me, I don't think 2009 is my best year, nor worst year because I don't know about the "best year-worst year" back in the day. Anyways, COVID-19 pandemic is pretty insane right now. Stay safe Iseriously! SMB99thx my edits! 01:33, 26 November 2020 (UTC)
- Ok, 2020 is a pretty bad year. Not even getting into my personal life, we had COVID-19, and 30 tropical storms coupled with 13 hurricanes and 6 major hurricanes. Combined with Trump's impeachment, it has been the worst year since 2012. (2012 I saw Hurricane Sandy and the renmants came back in a blizzard.) Also I lost power for six days due to Hurricane Isaias. --HurricaneTracker495 (talk) 14:28, 26 November 2020 (UTC)
- My state gets too many hurricanes, especially when it comes to Hurricane Isaias, I went through Sally, Beta, Delta, and Zeta throughout this crazy season. I nearly lost power to Zeta, as it was my very first actually tropical system to go through my region of my state. What do we expect for 2021?

Australian tropical cyclone intensity scale
edit@Iseriously: Hi there! I felt like I should clarify the Australian tropical cyclone intensity scale, given your recent edit to the 2019–20 Australian region cyclone season article. You mentioned that both Damien and Ferdinand had sustained winds of 100 mph, which is not strictly correct. Tropical cyclone winds are first measured in knots (in increments of 5 kn), and then converted to km/h and mph, and once again rounded to the nearest 5. Damien and Ferdinand both had maximum 10-minute sustained winds of 85 kn, which when rounded, corresponds to 155 km/h and 100 mph. If you convert directly from this (slightly inflated due to rounding) mph figure to km/h, you will get 161 km/h, which is indeed in the Category 4 range in the Australian scale; however, as mentioned, winds (and hence the intensity scale) are based on knots and not the converted figures. 90 kn is the minimum threshold for Category 4 in reality due to the nearest-five rounding convention. This is the case in all basins across the world as well, not just in the Australian region. I hope this clears everything up! ChocolateTrain (talk) 14:49, 18 December 2020 (UTC)

Hey there! I saw that you wrote: The costliest tropical cyclone of the year was Hurricane Anita in the Atlantic which struck Northern Mexico in very late August. Damages are still unknown to date, but most estimates say that Anita caused at least US$500 million in total damage.
Having worked on the Anita article, I had a lot of difficulty finding a damage source, so I was wondering where you got that info, since I'd love to add it to Anita's article and the List of retired Atlantic hurricane names. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 19:02, 19 August 2021 (UTC)

WikiProject Weather: Map Dot & Template/Infobox Colors
editDear project member, This message is being sent out to encourage new ideas and feedback on those proposed in regard to the colors debate for WikiProject Weather. For those who are unaware of what's been happening over the last year, I will give a brief summary. We have been discussing proposed changes to the colors of the dots on tropical cyclone maps and templates and infoboxes across the entire weather project in order to solve issues related to the limited contrast between colors for both normal vision as well as the various types of color blindness (MOS:ACCESS). We had partially implemented a proposal earlier this year, however, it was objected to by a number of people and additional issues were presented that made it evident this wasn't the optimal solution. We tried to come up with other solutions to address the issues related to color contrast, however, none of them gained traction and no consensus was generated.
We need your help and I encourage you to propose your own scale and give feedback on those already listed. Keep in mind that we are NOT making a decision on any individual proposal at this time. We are simply allowing people to make proposals and cultivate them given feedback from other project members. Please visit our project page for additional details. The proposal phase will close no later than December 31st at 23:59 UTC. NoahTalk 03:35, 21 November 2022 (UTC)
