[edit] Todo

More impact, better intro, more sources, inline sources. Jdorje 21:28, 15 January 2006 (UTC)

Done. What more needs to be done? Hurricanehink 15:37, 28 January 2006 (UTC)
Impact pictures. Not sure if they are allowed or not (no copyright notice).

Nicely done. As for the pictures, if there's no copyright notice we can't use them AFAIK. Jdorje 21:43, 30 January 2006 (UTC)

Thanks, and damn ;) Hopefully some pics will turn up somewhere. Hurricanehink 22:55, 30 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] GA nom has failed

The Good article nomination for Hurricane Pauline has failed for the following reason:

The article is a bit short. -- King of Hearts talk 03:04, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Aftermath

There should be an aftermath section. Retirement and some of the current impact section should be put there, and I'm sure more info can be found. — jdorje (talk) 03:30, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Expansion

Here's a few links to help with the article's expansion:

These are mostly for me, but if someone else wants to chip along, well, I'd be very happy. :) Titoxd(?!?) 03:23, 11 June 2006 (UTC)


[edit] GA Nomination June 2006 (declined)

I've reviewed a number of these Hurricane articles now , this isnt there yet in the overall prose. Another concern is this paragrapgh

In Oaxaca, Hurricane Pauline killed 15 people, with 22 missing. [5] Pauline destroyed thousands of acres of crops, destroyed thousands of cattle, and killed many in the province. [6] International aid focused on the wealthier Acapulco initially, though weeks later food and aid were delivered to the stricken areas.

the opening say 15 killed supported by ref #5, then says killed many supported ref #6. its a duplicate of the same statement but when you check ref #6 the document says 110 people killed in Oaxaca. sorry guys i've declined GA on this, but if you want me to come back and review again just drop a note on my talk page Gnangarra 08:22, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] The Olaf/Pauline tango

I'm starting to look at the rainfall from these systems, and it's looking awful complicated. Olaf brought some rain, then Pauline brought more rain, then Pauline's broad circulation aloft drug Olaf back inland. Oy gevalt. These rainfall maps will be tricky...something tells me I'll have to create a combined rainfall map including both storms, in addition to the individual storm total maps.

Ugh, that's not good. Good luck with that. Hurricanehink (talk) 02:32, 19 January 2007 (UTC)
