GA Review

[edit]
  • Spell out "150 mph" to "150 miles per hour"; same goes for other primary units
  • For some of the references, the publisher is before, for some, they are after – The publishers in URLs go after the titles

  • "and at its peak intensity it attained 150 mph (240 km/h) winds" - would read better if you removed the "it"/"its"
  • In the first image caption, can you (briefly) describe the path it follows.
  • "which was further extended to Chincoteague" - it reads like Oregon Inlet was extended... obviously not right, so clarify.
  • "The storm generally produced an estimated storm surge of 2–3 ft (0.5–1 m)" - could trim a few of these words ("generally" etc.) so it flows a bit better.

Edit conflicted with Gary above, but these are my notes. —Giggy 03:22, 29 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comments fixed (Gary's, too). I'll be away, so just let me know on my talk page what happens. Cheers, Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone 11:15, 29 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Something is wrong with the format of reference 9. Anyone know how to fix that? Cite web is a big blind spot for me. Thegreatdr (talk) 13:18, 29 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed; you missed a "|" between "author=title=" Naerii 15:48, 29 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • "of 5.05 in (128 mm) of" – needs unit expansion
  • "65,000 without power." → "65,000 people without power." – just for clarification's sake
  • "150 mph (240 km/h)" – unit expansion
  • "Gov. Mike Easley" – "Governor Mike Easley"
  • " Impact" section still needs unit expansion
