[edit] To do

Good job for such a random storm. Quick question, though. The season article says one person was killed on St. Michaels. Is there any validity to that? Also, the storm history can probably be trimmed a bit, but all in all, good work. Hurricanehink (talk) 15:24, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

I made a hidden note in the Impact section suggesting that I couldn't find anything about that reported fatality. Hence I left it out. CrazyC83 15:46, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] GA review

Would it be possible to extend the impact section and add some images (if there are any)? Otherwise it is well referenced. But it might be a good idea to add the references for the third tropical storm and second hurricane info given in the lead sentence. And maybe put some sections in the history section to overview the stages of the hurricane.. Putting it on hold, will come back later in a week.. Baristarim 14:52, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

I would not agree with splitting the storm history. It's not remarkably long (Hurricane Wilma, for example), and the general wikiproject standard is not to split storm history up - even more so for a hurricane that did nothing. There is nothing special about the storm's history (unlike Wilma or Katrina), so that really isn't needed imo. Secondly, it may not be possible to extend the impact section. You need to bear in mind that this is a storm that did not affect land. – Chacor 14:21, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
Additionally, it is generally frowned upon to have the references for the numbers on the lede; those belong in the season article, 1992 Atlantic hurricane season. Titoxd(?!?) 19:31, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

I took a look at the other GA Hurricane articles and a closer look at this one, and it largely meets the GA criteria. The subject matter, considering the difficulties that could be experienced with its scope, is adequately dealt with. Congratulations! Baristarim 00:53, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
