[edit] Todo

More everything. Damage totals, or other impact on Bermuda would be appreciated. Hurricanehink 20:42, 30 April 2006 (UTC)

Info from the Royal Gazette (Bermuda's np), should be added. That link has some preps info. Hurricanehink (talk) 22:15, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] NJ Maria death

Should the death caused by Maria and Nate's rip currents be counted as a death in the infobox? I think it should, but both Maria and Nate together caused the one death. Having one on both places would mess up the totals. Hurricanehink (talk) 21:47, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

Nate was much closer than Maria, so I'd call it a Nate-related death. CrazyC83 01:37, 19 September 2006 (UTC)
True, but the website with the source says it was from both storms... Hurricanehink (talk) 01:41, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Failed Good Article nomination

Reading this article, I found it hard to understand. It doesn't pass the criteria for being well-written as the phrasing is awkward and the terminology isn't explained well. The structure is confusing and it could use quite a bit of clarification. Good luck with that and happy wiki-ing! --Keitei (talk) 09:45, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] GA nomination (second one)

I saw this on the list of GA candidates and thought I'd take a look. Overall very good, however a couple of minor things that could be added:

  • Is it possible for any more precise timings to be given in the storm history. For example it says: and became Tropical Storm Nate six hours later. 6 hours later than what?
  • Should the intro mention the one related fatality and the minimal impacts in other places? Currently it says that it passed well to the south of Bermuda, leaving the reader to assume minimal impacts.
  • Can references be added to the last section, Naming and records.
  • but the NHC correctly predicted Nate would survive as a separate system. Although factually accurate it sounded a bit like favoritism or like trying to defend the NHC. Could it be re-worded in a slightly different way? Can't think of a better way at the moment!

Hope these are useful and congrats for a very informative article. - Suicidalhamster 23:42, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
