Because there's no sources, I've lowered this to start class. --Hurricanehink (talk) 01:48, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Formed over land?

From the track map, it looks as though Agnes formed over the Yucatan. Is this the case? I think there was an instance of this happenning(sp?)at another point in time.WotGoPlunk 19:56, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

Yup it did. So did Bill in 2003. -- §HurricaneERIC§Damagesarchive 01:01, 6 February 2006 (UTC)
Hurricane Alma (1966) formed over Central America. There is ample precedent. Thegreatdr 16:07, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] wiki for the blind

I am 19 years old and blind. I am interested in adding relevant items to wiki that help the blind "visualize" and grasp the subjects at hand. I love the tradition of oral storytelling. I have added a link to a radio story by The American Storyteller.--Trgwilson (talk) 16:10, 25 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Sptimesagnes1972.jpg

Image:Sptimesagnes1972.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
