"The 1855 Atlantic hurricane season featured no tropical cyclone landfalls on the East Coast of the United States" - This should NOT be the first sentence of the article; focus on where they did land, or the relative paucity of known hurricanes, THEN mention where they did not.

Better?--12george1 (talk) 19:33, 12 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Much. Thank you. Adam Cuerden ^(talk) 06:39, 14 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You mention a downgraded hurricane in the lead, but nowhere else. This needs summarised in the article.

Are you asking me to mention that downgraded hurricane as a separate section or something like that?--12george1 (talk) 19:33, 12 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It would seem to make sense, and should explain why it was rejected, if at all possible. Adam Cuerden ^(talk) 06:39, 14 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Done--12george1 (talk) 02:37, 15 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This has somewhat of a paucity of sources. The secondary sources mention the New York Times; all the New York Times articles are available online for free, and would be worth using to add detail.

Looks better, aye. I mean, this is always going to be a short article, but may as well include relevant bits... Adam Cuerden ^(talk) 06:39, 14 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Well, obviously, this is an article where there's a limited amount of information to use. But I'm happy it's a good, complete description of the subject. Pass. Adam Cuerden ^(talk) 09:58, 15 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
