[edit] Todo

I set it as a B class, given the amount of info for such an old storm. Some todo would be finding an infobox picture (damage pic, maybe) and more lede. Hurricanehink (talk) 12:54, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

Also, I gotta say, I can't believe you did all of that in one edit! Well done. In the future, you can save more often, you know ;) Hurricanehink (talk) 12:58, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
Thanks! By the way, I found a damage pic, but the part that's biting me is that it's from the Hurricane News Archives and I have no clue if it can be used fair use. The pic is also rather bad in quality, but right now, it's all there is. URL is: http://www.thehurricanearchive.com/Viewer.aspx?img=31125836&firstvisit=true&currentResult=2&currentPage=10

Unfortunately, that damage photo is copyrighted by the Associated Press, and thus unusable. The only alternative would be to upload the entire newspaper image and source it with Template:Newspapercover, though I'm not sure. You might want to ask an admin.

That is even worse than just using the image as any FU rationale for the whole page is weaker than just the image. The newspaper cover boilerplate would make sense if the newspaper article itself was in some way important to the story of the storm. This image cannot be used in any way shape or form in this article; which isn't that big a deal - its not that good anyway. All I can say is keep looking... the DOD is a possible source for example.--Nilfanion (talk) 22:38, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
