[edit] Super

Why is "Super" not allowed in the title? Mike H. That's hot 16:04, 30 December 2005 (UTC)

Other articles of typhoons have no "Super" in their title. HERB 02:01, 14 January 2006 (UTC)
That didn't answer the why question at all. Mike H. That's hot 02:02, 14 January 2006 (UTC)
If the title is to include "Super" it should do so throughout all such articles. If you want to make that change you should take up the discussion on Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject Tropical cyclones. Jdorje 03:00, 14 January 2006 (UTC)
I am not looking for an argument, I just wanted to know why, which nobody has answered yet. Mike H. That's hot 04:09, 14 January 2006 (UTC)
I agree with you Mike the word super really should be part of the name because this really was a "super" typhoon. I was there. Jer V. 19:08, 11 August 2006(EST)

[edit] Todo

More impact. Jdorje 03:00, 14 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Name

Shouldn't this be called Typhoon Paka (1997) since the name wasn't retired? Miss Madeline | Talk to Madeline 22:06, 30 April 2006 (UTC)

I think it's so rare to reuse names in the Central Pacific...I don't see it being a problem. It's not like the Atlantic where it's set to be reused every six years. Mike H. That's hot 05:32, 1 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Assessment

Considering how little there is here, I have reclassified this as stub-class. It needs more anything. --Coredesat talk. o_O 03:36, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Todo

A lot. Try basing this off Hurricane Ioke. – Chacor 01:26, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Assessment

There's still little impact, and virtually no lede. Back to start-class. --Coredesat 22:45, 11 August 2007 (UTC)
