Talk:Cyclone Laila

Times and dates

There are a number of places in this article where phrases like "...since last night..." and "...in the last two days.." are being used. These should be replaced with actual dates; "...since last night..." isn't correct once that day has passed! MeegsC | Talk 16:09, 22 May 2010 (UTC)

That's because they information was directly copied from the newspaper articles. --Yueof theNorth 14:20, 23 May 2010 (UTC)

Cyclone name

Cyclone names in Indian ocean region are not necessarily named after person's names. I am especially speaking for Pakistani/Indian names (myself being a native Urdu language speaker). Example in case are list of North Indian Ocean storm names; Pakistani contributed names in List 7 is Titli, meaning Butterfly, which is never used as a female name. Similarly List 8 has Bulbul, named after a bird (I don't know its english name). To further prove my point, please see the article on last cyclonic storm named by Pakistan, Cyclone Nargis. If you read the third paragraph, it says the name has meaning Daffodil, which is sourced from a news website. Therefore, I suggest that my contribution regarding the name meaning be re-added. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Remukhan (talk • contribs) 12:14, 1 June 2010 (UTC)

I personally think adding in what a cyclone name means is trivia and not very relevant to the articles.Jason Rees (talk) 19:53, 1 June 2010 (UTC).

This information is not available anywhere. Also Cyclone Nargis article also mentions the meaning. Anyway, you have a point. Thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Remukhan (talk • contribs) 17:26, 2 June 2010 (UTC)
