[edit] Merge

This article is skin and bones with no hope of a healthy future. Let's merge it with 1996 Atlantic hurricane season. Thoughts? Concerns? Rantings and ravings? -- Hurricane Eric - my dropsonde - archive 04:54, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

Despite this author's usual tendencies, I think this page has a lot of information. I find the political information especially good for an article. It needs some copywriting, but I think this storm is important enough that it could remain an article. Of course, if the information was false, and the storm was not as bad as remembered, I might change my mind, but I am content with keeping the article. However, there are plenty others I want to see go... Hurricanehink 20:34, 22 December 2005 (UTC)

I agree. Writing is terrible, content is passable. Jdorje 05:34, 3 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re. Lili

The information is correct and I dont know why that the storm didnt make the headlines in the U.S. back then (especally the political fallout after the storm), so I'm favoring of keeping the article. Storm05 17:30, 3 January 2006 (UTC)

Please improve the article then with correct grammar, spelling, wikification, and structure. Jdorje 18:05, 3 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Stolen

Some of the text in the article was stolen. I deleted it. Jdorje 18:16, 3 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Todo

Main thing is the entire article has to be checked to make sure the original author didn't just copy-and-paste it. The aftermath section is spaghetti and needs a full copyedit. Other sections are confused: for instance the impact section on Great Britain gives part of the storm history for some reason. The external links is way too long (linking to individual pictures? no way.). Jdorje 20:40, 10 January 2006 (UTC)

I've forgot to cite some of the information when I wrote the article Storm05 18:13, 13 January 2006 (UTC)
