Hi

Sorry, I haven't responded, by the way, have you known that you are 1 day short of 2 months older that me?!!!! Great Fake Hurricanes! --Elena85 | Talk to Me | Almost 2000 edits 23:05, 21 September 2008 (UTC)

I am actually male and I think Erika should replace Elena. --Rose09 | Talk | 2011 edits 01:17, 25 September 2008 (UTC)

Emilia should replace Ella.--Leave Message orYellow Evan home 21:37, 27 September 2008 (UTC)

Hello there!

Sorry for the late response. Hello there Dylan, and welcome to the tropical cyclone Wikiproject! The biggest rule of the project, which I'm sure you'll follow, is that you have interest in tropical cyclones. We're all people who are connected by their joint interest of hurricanes and Wikipedia. I noticed that your note to me appeared well-written and thought out. From that, I hope I am correct in assuming that you can write well. That is the second most important rule of the project, and perhaps of Wikipedia in general. We are all here working to build a free encyclopedia. That is why we hope and expect the members to write well. If you can do that, then you're ahead of the game.

I am writing this away from a stable internet connection, so I wasn't able to look at your user pages. However, I'm wondering if you would consider writing on the mainspace more often (ideally exclusively to the mainspace, but we wouldn't want to take your fun away ;) ). I'll be honest, the project is currently lacking in writers, and I am willing to help you get used to writing in the mainspace. I'm curious, do you have a preference in the storms that you would be writing on? Do you prefer newer, older, relatively recent storms? Do you prefer Atlantic, Pacific, or elsewhere? We have over 1000 articles, and some are better covered than others.

I suppose I'll stop there, and let you respond. Cheers, and I look forward to working with you. ♬♩ Hurricanehink (talk) 03:10, 22 September 2008 (UTC)

Ah, ok! Well, I'll see you around. Good luck with school. ♬♩ Hurricanehink (talk) 21:42, 24 September 2008 (UTC)

intrested in Planet Cease Season

I am Yellow Evan, the one that beet you to the Fausto page and I am intreseted in your Panet Ceaser seasons. Can I help?--Leave Message orYellow Evan home 02:09, 2 October 2008 (UTC)

Hi there

Hi Dylan620; welcome to the WPTC! I see somebody replied to your copyright question on my talk page. First off, you should do as I did when I first joined Wikipedia and the WPTC alike: read some featured articles, such as Hurricane John (2006), so you'll be ready to write a quality article once Norbert comes around. That said, you might also want to peek at the project page and its sub-pages, to learn about the Tropical cyclones WikiProject, as a whole.

Regarding your fake hurricane seasons, while it seems interesting, I'm not sure I see the necessity of it. No need to be discouraged by an old Wiki-grump like me, though. :-) Happy editing, and if you have any questions, feel free to ask them at my talk page. –Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone 23:26, 2 October 2008 (UTC)

Fair enough. You might want to try working on articles, as well, but I suppose it's good to have fun at work. :-) –Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone 21:49, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
I don't know if I'll find time, but I'll try to take a look soon. –Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone 14:27, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

2002

i just created the2002 Planet Ceser Atlantic hurricane season--Leave Message orYellow Evan home 23:44, 2 October 2008 (UTC)

1979 seson

The 1979 planet Cesers Season is done all wrong because nthere is nothing in the infobox. The articles are short too short and a propose to merge Daylan. To see how to do it is Hurricane Gustav (2002). That might even be a little short.Leave Message orYellow Evan home 00:48, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

=Answer

I will not merge Dayln please keep it with Planet Ceres because it will make a lot of people would get them mixed up. the good news is that I can move pages if there is a typo. I just started the sections for Alica. Ike ad Gustav are your two examples and also I decied to make 1990,s Bertha damaging and give me a replacement name. i Can I create the Pacific Seasons?Leave Message orYellow Evan home 18:39, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

2002

Do you think the 2002 season is ok.

See This Please!

I made a miniwiki so that we can make the seasons with out getting into trouble. It is here: [1] Make an account and send me a message at [2] when you have to use the old infobox and I will post it at the home page. Can I submit 3 storm lists for the Atlantic and EPac? They will be at [3]. Please create a account!!! --Rose09 Rashmi Next 19:40, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

that is me (Krosa09) I don't know how to help you with joining. --Rose09 Rashmi Next 19:20, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

I hope you don't mind, but I created a account for you it is Dylan620 and the pass is your name in lowercase --Rose09 Rashmi Next 19:27, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Ariticles

If you want to cerate EPAC articles do one for Hurricane Jova (2005), Tropical Strom Andres (1997), Tropical Storm Olaf (1997) or Hurricane Boris (1996)Leave Message orYellow Evan home 04:21, 9 October 2008 (UTC)

Daylan, I read your comment on the projects talk page and will you do articles for any of these storms. also, I planned to due an article for Hurricane Fausto (1996) but you may do an article for Tropical Storm Olaf (1997), Hurricane Oliwa (1997). Category 5 hurricane. Need help ask me?Leave Message orYellow Evan home 23:11, 14 October 2008 (UTC)

Eh, it's okay. Since Yellow Evan didn't have too much detail in his hurricane pages, recreating those on Wikia (where it is okay to make up fake hurricane seasons and storms) will be easy. And as for my hurricane pages, I managed to transfer them to Wikia in time. Lounge with Dylan620 today! 11:42 UTC October 18, 2008

Tropical Storm Percy Disambiguation page

I think that your Percy disambiguation page is ready to be published it looks a lot better then some we have in the project esspecially in the WPac. Jason Rees (talk) 22:19, 14 October 2008 (UTC)

Hi Dylan; I noticed that you added {{FAC}} to Talk:Hurricane Kate (2003). First, I just wanted to let you know that you've only completed the process partially. Instructions are at the WP:FAC page. Second, FACs in which the nominator is not a significant contributor to the article and hasn't discussed the matter with the editor who is are referred to as "drive-by nominations", and are usually archived (failed) rather quickly. Cheers, –Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone 22:36, 16 October 2008 (UTC)

Have you made an effort to contact User:Hurricanehink, the primary contributor of the article? –Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone 22:54, 16 October 2008 (UTC)

I'm still on break, but I'll stop in. I'd rather not have Kate as an FA. I am perfectly fine with it as an A-class article, and I see no need for it to have the star. Besides, there are some more things I would want to do it, if I ever did want to take it to FA. ♬♩ Hurricanehink (talk) 14:02, 17 October 2008 (UTC)

Well, I didn't oppose it on the FAC page. As you asked me whether I wanted it on FAC or not, I just said I don't wish to see it on FAC. ♬♩ Hurricanehink (talk) 23:07, 17 October 2008 (UTC)

Hurricane Hernan

If you want get an article to FA status try Hurricane Hernan (2008)].Leave Message orYellow Evan home 16:53, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

GAC

I suppose Rocko's Modern Life could be nominated for a GAC. It may need some reorganization - but what you could do is nominate it as a dry run and see what the reviewer says. Then when the reviewer states which changes need to be made, you could do that.

If you have access to Lexis-Nexis, EBSCOHost, or other academic databases you can use them to obtain more sources. WhisperToMe (talk) 20:36, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

  • It's not an official Wikipedia term, but I mean it as a way to test to see what the article needs before it can become a GA. Often articles in submission are put on hold when the reviewer wants some time for problems to be corrected before the article can gain GA status. Anyhow, I would first ensure that the article indeed more or less meets Wikipedia:Good article criteria guidelines, then I would nominate and see what else needs to be done. WhisperToMe (talk) 21:58, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

BTW, this book sold here http://joemurraystudio.com/blog/?page_id=346 may have more information which can help you make the article closer to a GA (or at a later point an FA) - The information in here is self-published, but I do not feel that is a problem here as the author is the creator of the series. WhisperToMe (talk) 15:52, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

What happens when you try to upload your image? If you already made one I would like to see what you did. BTW if the image was made by you, and as long as it doesn't actually depict a fictional character it should be uploaded to commons.wikimedia.org - Make your EN.wikipedia account global so it also belongs to the commons. WhisperToMe (talk) 20:47, 26 October 2008 (UTC)

I haven't created it yet - I'm not that good at making icons, but I'll see what I can do in MS Paint. WhisperToMe (talk) 20:56, 26 October 2008 (UTC)

Re: Adoption

Sure thing, I'd be happy to. Just one question. Would you prefer this to be an overall adoption, or more of an admin-coaching program? Cheers. –Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone 19:13, 31 October 2008 (UTC)

Sounds good. Let me know when you get that sub-page created, and we can get started as soon as possible. Obviously, I'll start with the basics, and then move on to more advanced aspects of editing. It seems that you have a good grasp on talk page posts, article creation, and such, so those kinds of things shouldn't be too important. –Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone 19:25, 31 October 2008 (UTC)
I left a task for you to complete. –Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone 19:43, 31 October 2008 (UTC)
