November 2006

thanks

Thanks for fixing the grammars on my user page. Happy editing!--PrestonH 04:45, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

Wikibreak/Leaving for now

I am currently leaving Wikipedia due to an editing failure that I didn't like. I will probably be back fully within a few weeks or a few days. During this time when I have not fully returned, I will likely still make a few edits and visit wikipedia quite often, and I might still respond to talk pages and articles, and check my watchlist once in a while. Bye for now. AstroHurricane001 15:31, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

I am editing frequently and I am back from my ⅔ Wikibreak. I will resume what I usually do on wikipedia, as I already have. AstroHurricane001 22:15, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
I am again going to be taking a wikibreak for a few weeks. I will likely still make edits during this time. AstroHurricane001 00:23, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
I'm back from my "wikibreak", and will resume normal editing levels. Soon I might edit with above-average editing levels. AstroHurricane001 23:31, 20 December 2006 (UTC)

Language thanks

Thank you very much for your help on my name in many languages. You were very fast at getting to it, as it was only three hours old. Hopefully I can fill up my page eventually. Thanks again, Reywas92Talk 04:09, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, I checked it on probably the same tool, and it seemed okay. It may be correct or not, but it's close enough. Thanks, Reywas92Talk 22:27, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

0.999...

No, there's no mathematical logic behind that user's edit. Dlong 19:02, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

Tropical cyclones WikiProject Newsletter #7

Number 7, December 22, 2006

The Hurricane Herald

This is the monthly newsletter of WikiProject Tropical Cyclones. This shortened late issue covers just global tropical cyclone activity in November, to prevent the next newsletter from being too large.

Tropical cyclone activity

  • One hurricane, Hurricane Sergio, formed in the eastern Pacific. Sergio was the longest lasting November Pacific hurricane recorded. Two other tropical cyclones, Tropical Storm Rosa and a tropical depression formed in the basin. None of the systems affected land.
  • An unusual extratropical cyclone developed in the northern central Pacific, resembling a subtropical cyclone at its peak.
  • A total of three typhoons formed in the western Pacific, and all the storms followed a similar track across the Philippines. Typhoon Cimaron formed at the end of October and lasted into November, killing 19 people. Typhoon Chebi existed during the middle of the month and was the weakest of the three causing minor damages. The most devastating storm of the month, Typhoon Durian hit the Philippines on November 30, killing at least 720 people in the island nation.
  • Two named cyclones developed in the Southern Hemisphere, Tropical Cyclone Yani in the South Pacific and Moderate Tropical Storm Anita in the Southwest Indian Ocean. Two unnamed depression also formed in the South Pacific. None of these storms affected land.

Editorial

The lateness of this edition is due to me being on an wikibreak and no-one taking up the slack. My wikibreak was the result of a lightning strike damaging my internet connection and frying my router, and the time taken for the replacement to arrive. As this issue is almost 3 weeks later than planned, only the monthly cyclone activity for November has been included. The next letter will be produced for January 7, 2006 and will be larger than normal to cover both month's Wikipedia news and December's tropical activity. There will be no Member or Storm of the month in January, to reduce the length; and the newsletter will return to normal in February.--Nilfanion (talk) 21:59, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

Re:Dead subpage...

Haha, wow, you caught that fast! It just got kind of boring, and I never had time to add anything to it, so I put it under "Dead subpages". So yeah, it died. →Cyclone1→ 22:15, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

Re:Your userpage

It isn't exactly vandalism, but it isn't something I want on my userpage, so I reverted it. Whoever it was, I must know him in real life because he used my actual name. Thanks for noticing it! Reywas92TalkSign Here 23:09, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

Not that it really matters, but as it was his only edit, it was probably someone I know at school, not a wikipedian, but I won't be able to find that out until next week when school gets back. Reywas92TalkSign Here 01:03, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

GoodDay

Hello AstroHurricane001. Could you remove your 'New Messages' notifier. For some reason, it directs back to my page. GoodDay 23:54, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

Hope you don't think I'm grouchy. GoodDay 20:44, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
I also sent out a request, to Reywas92. Just curious, did the 'joke' direct only to my page? GoodDay 18:14, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
Oh, then in that case by all means restore the joke bar. I thought it directed 'only' to my page. Thought I was a random joke victim. GoodDay 18:21, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
I clicked on it and it directed to my talkpage too. I'm not a big fan of these particular jokes (it's funny maybe the first five times you fall for it but not after that), but it wasn't targeted at you, GoodDay, or anyone else in particular. Newyorkbrad 18:23, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

Tropical cyclones WikiProject Newsletter #8

Number 8, January 7, 2007

The Hurricane Herald

This is the monthly newsletter of WikiProject Tropical Cyclones. The Hurricane Herald aims to give a summary, both of the activities of the WikiProject and global tropical cyclone activity. If you wish to change how you receive this newsletter, or no longer wish to receive it, please add your username to the appropriate section on the mailing list. The WikiProject has its own IRC channel.

Tropical cyclone activity

  • Three tropical cyclones existed in the West Pacific during December. Typhoon Durian (Reming) was the deadliest and strongest of the three, killing over 800 people, in the Philippines and Vietnam and peaking at Category 4 strength. Typhoon Utor lasted formed on December 7 and lasted for 7 days, passing over the Philippines and causing severe floods in Malaysia. The final storm of the year, Tropical Storm Trami, lasted for three days and did not affect land.
  • The Southern Hemisphere saw a number of storms develop during December. The most significant was Cyclone Bondo, which hit Madagascar on December 23. Cyclone Anita dissipated early in the month, having formed in November and Cyclone Clovis developed on December 30 before reaching its peak in January. All of these storms were in the Southwest Indian Ocean, the only other cyclone was Cyclone Isobel that formed on December 31 to the north of Western Australia.

The Portal

Portal:Tropical cyclones is designed as the entry point to the WikiProject's work and is recognised as a Featured Portal. The structure emulates that of Wikipedia's Main page and needs updating in a similar manner. The following are the key sections that need editorial attention:

  • Selected article: This is one of the articles of the project, rotated on a weekly basis. These are selected from the better-quality articles and discussed at Portal talk:Tropical cyclones/Selected article.
  • Selected picture: This is chosen from the pictures used in the articles and is rotated monthly. It is selected in a similar manner to the article on Portal talk:Tropical cyclones/Selected picture.
  • Did you know: This is rotated as new articles are created and contains an interesting fact from a few of the new articles.
  • Active tropical cyclones: The currently active tropical cyclones are listed here, and are linked to appropriately.
  • Tropical cyclone news: Recent events in Tropical cyclone activity, such as formation, landfalls and dissipation of storms.
  • Anniversaries: This significant anniversaries for each day in the last week. Unlike the others it refreshes automatically, but should be updated if a new significant event occurs.
  • Things you can do: Unlike the other sections which are reader orientated, this is aimed at editors to give suggestions of articles to work on.

Please keep all of these sections up-to-date and refresh them as new tropical cyclones develop and articles are created. Also please keep the suggestions to editors current and fresh.

Edits by 66.75.42.235

I told adminstrators about 66.75.42.235 adding false information repeatedly to SpongeBob SquarePants (character). If a vandal constantly vandalizes an article with you warning him, you may considers telling adminstrators about it at Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism. By the way, great motto! Happy editing! S.D. ¿п? § 01:29, 17 January 2007 (UTC)

Mottos

You can create lots of mottos, just as long as you roughly follow the guidelines on the proposals page. Simply south 22:46, 17 January 2007 (UTC)

You know, if you like a suggestion given to a motto that you've nominated, you can change/edit it. Tennis DyNamiTe (sign here) 22:59, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

Motto of the Day

Well, I used to contribute, but stopped. Now, I supported all the ones I liked since the last time I voted. Since I don't oppose (unless necessary), it seems as if I'm spamming, but I can assure you it's not. :-) | AndonicO Talk · Sign Here 23:42, 19 January 2007 (UTC)
