[edit] Todo

More impact. Jdorje 23:05, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

Is it almost a B-class? I will write more tomorrow. íslenska hurikein #12(samtal) 00:27, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
Not even close. A lot of information is needed in each section. Also, there's no preparations and too few sources. Hurricanehink (talk) 02:25, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
I know. But I just got home; I'll add more to it tonight and tomorrow. íslenska hurikein #12(samtal) 01:47, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
How's that? I'm sure there's a little more info, but I think it's B-class. íslenska hurikein #12(samtal) 19:12, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
Too many citations needed, and not enough existing citations. Hurricanehink (talk) 02:14, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
There's only 4! That's not that bad, is it? íslenska hurikein #12(samtal) 02:29, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
1 is too many unsourced statements for B class. The whole article needs inline sources, simply put. Hurricanehink (talk) 02:38, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
There; it's a B-class. Finally! 16:14, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
Um, no. You're not allowed to assess your own articles. The whole article needs inline sources, for starters. There's not enough information in the "Rest of Central America" section. What about damage in Mexico? It made landfall as a category 1 hurricane. Surely there is some info on its second landfall. In the future, please don't assess your own articles. --Hurricanehink (talk) 20:41, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
Well, that's all I found. I looked some more, but no luck. íslenska hurikein #12 (samtal) 19:47, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

Looks like Titoxd found tons of info. B-class? íslenskur fellibylur #12 (samtal) 14:17, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

Yea, sounds good. Hurricanehink (talk) 14:24, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

What now? íslenskur fellibylur #12 (samtal) 20:18, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

Cite Web formatting, and pics if possible. Titoxd(?!?) 21:18, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Photos?

I found good damage photos at http://pso.louisville.edu/capstBeli.html, they are copyrighted...i think. There is a contact list, but I'm too busy to email them. Can someone else do it, or else I'll do it later. They're worthwhile :) íslenska hurikein #12(samtal) 23:43, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

When you have time, you should ask them. I would, but I personally hate the process of putting pics in articles (though I love seeing pics in articles). --Hurricanehink (talk) 20:41, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
Ok, I sent out an e-mail to the secratary. I hope they respond. íslenska hurikein #12 (samtal) 21:52, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

  6. Factually Accurate: Pass

My only problem: "The name Kirk has yet to be used." That sounds a lot like POV to me. Otherwise, pass.Mitchazenia(7900+edits) 16:18, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

Uh... how is that POV? Titoxd(?!? - cool stuff) 20:05, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
Nvm that man. I revert that decision.Mitchazenia 20:07, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Assessment

This isn't ready for FAC. The storm history section is barely longer than the abbreviated storm history in the lede, and there is little to speak of in the preparations section. The whole article needs a thorough copyedit and the lede probably needs to be rewritten. --Coredesat 00:58, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] GA Sweeps Review: Pass

As part of the WikiProject Good Articles, we're doing sweeps to go over all of the current GAs and see if they still meet the GA criteria. I'm specifically going over all of the "Meteorology and atmospheric sciences" articles. I believe the article currently meets the criteria and should remain listed as a Good article. I have made several minor corrections throughout the article. Altogether the article is well-written and is still in great shape after its passing in 2006. Continue to improve the article making sure all new information is properly sourced and neutral. It would also be beneficial to go through the article and update all of the access dates of the inline citations and fix any dead links. If you have any questions, let me know on my talk page and I'll get back to you as soon as I can. I have updated the article history to reflect this review. Happy editing! --Nehrams2020 (talk) 22:11, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
