I have an idea[edit]

And that is we get our axe out. Why? So we can get rid of this article. Why? Cause it's on nothing interesting. It was some dud TS in the middle of nowhere. as I said, the storm is not even interesting! If the storm was interesting/long, we can debate, but here we can't. Sure it's a GA, but nothing special in my mind as IMO it is a pretty average GA. YE Pacific Hurricane 01:59, 22 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I support a merge proposal for this storm, no longer meets any of the relevant WP:WPTC notability guidelines, outdated GA. Short lived storm that caused minimal impact on sea and did nothing noteworthy. Secret account 02:03, 22 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

It's notable to be included IMO on wiki. It's simply there's not enough useful content to exist. It's a 1 paragraph season section kind of storm (and will be one 1 para once I cut it down). YE Pacific Hurricane 02:05, 22 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I support a merge of Tropical Storm Haishen. Even if it is a good article, as Secret said it no longer meets the notability standards that the tropical cyclone WikiProject is trying to set. Having articles like these strewn about doesn't help with the development and growth of the WikiProject. It's about time we move on from trying to maintain these non-notable items simply for the sake of making the project stats look better and move on to fostering bigger things.

FTR, these pages require no maintenance :F As for the offset WW rise, it is too small to make much of a diffrence anyway. I love the thought of having as many articles as possible (and it often gets in the way of my decision making), but at this point, if it's gonna be a 261 word season section, why should it exist? YE Pacific Hurricane 05:04, 22 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not sure why we're still in the habit of decimating articles in the midst of merge proposals. There's no good reason for it other than to possibly mislead passers-by into thinking we've somehow promoted such a dubious GA as to require immediate deletion. Fair would be to leave the article as close to its GAN revision as possible for the duration of the merge discussion. If consensus is in favor of merging, then it's appropriate to consolidate the info. That said, having seen the article yesterday, I think this is a fairly clear case of an inconsequential storm whose history could easily be contained within the season article. – Juliancolton | Talk 13:11, 22 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Merge?[edit]

I just noticed this short, stubby article. Should it be merged? ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 19:25, 27 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Merge (2nd)[edit]

This storm is short-lived and didn't cause any impacts.

@Jason Rees, Cyclonebiskit, and Hurricanehink: pinging the main editors of this article. --219.78.191.189 (talk) 03:59, 15 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Why wasn't this merged yet? YE Pacific Hurricane 04:24, 15 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I support. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 18:58, 21 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I reverted the merge because IP's aren't suppose to delist GA's AFAIK plus I didn't see the content actually moved. YE Pacific Hurricane 03:15, 23 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
