Tropical cyclones WikiProject Newsletter #24
Number 24, March 7
The Hurricane Herald
This is the bi-monthly newsletter of WikiProject Tropical Cyclones. The Hurricane Herald aims to give a summary, both of the activities of the WikiProject and global tropical cyclone activity. If you wish to change how you receive this newsletter, or no longer wish to receive it, please add your username to the appropriate section on the mailing list. This newsletter covers all of January 2009 and February 2009.
Please visit this page and bookmark any suggestions of interest to you. This will help improve monitoring of the WikiProject's articles.
Storm of the month
Cyclone Fanele was the first cyclone of tropical cyclone status to strike western Madagascar since Cyclone Fame one year prior. It formed on January 18 in the Mozambique Channel, and rapidly organized, reaching peak winds of 185 km/h (115 mph). It weakened before moving ashore in Menabe Region southwest of Morondava, and rapidly deteriorated over land. Fanele briefly re-intensified after reaching open waters, only to become an extratropical cyclone by January 23. The cyclone caused heavy damage near where it moved ashore and along its path, resulting in at least eight deaths. Fanele struck Madagascar just two days after Tropical Storm Eric brushed the northeastern portion of the country. The two storms affected over 50,000 people, of which at least 4,000 were left homeless. Fanele struck the country during a series of government protests, and consequentially relief efforts were hindered.
Other tropical cyclone activity
- Western Pacific Ocean– The first tropical cyclone of the season was Tropical Depression Auring, as designated by PAGASA. It formed on January 3 to the east of the Philippines, producing heavy rainfall and flooding on Mindanao island. Never organizing much, the depression dissipated a few days after forming, causing one death and destroying 305 houses. The next month, Tropical Depression Bising formed near Palau and, moving westward, later passed through the Philippines as a remnant low; rainfall from the system produced mudslides, though no major damage was reported.
- South-West Indian– Tropical Storm Dongo was the first storm of January in the basin, and it remained over open waters without affecting landmasses throughout its duration. In the middle of the month along with Cyclone Fanele, Tropical Storm Eric developed and moved near Madagascar, killing one and producing heavy rainfall in the northeastern portion of the country. Later, Cyclone Gael killed two people on Réunion while tracking for ten days east of Madagascar; at the time it was the 2nd strongest cyclone of the season. Lastly, Tropical Storm Hina persisted for about five days, nearly reaching tropical cyclone status before weakening.
- Australia- During the previous two months their have been nine Tropical Lows with four of them becoming a Tropical Cyclone whilst the remants of Cyclone Innis briefly moved into the Australian Region from the South Pacific. Cyclones Charlotte, Dominic, Ellie, and Freddy all caused damage to Australia and or the Indonesia Islands.
- South Pacific- During the last two months the south Pacific has come alive with six depressions forming in January and February. The most significant depression was Tropical Depression 04F which brought heavy rainfall to Fiji and caused widespread flooding and killing at least 11 people. The first two named storms, Hettie and Innis also developed, each having minor effects on land.
Member of the month
The member of the month is... HurricaneSpin HurricaneSpin is a relativly new member of the project who has helped the project out by finding photos of Tropical Cyclones and uploading them to Commons. He is still getting to grips with the project but is coming on in leaps and bounds thus we have decided to make him the Member of the Month, for January and February 2009.

Project News
The project reached a milestone in the last two months in terms of article quality for all articles within the project. For the first time, the percentage of Good articles or better reached more than 1/3, and at the same time, the percentage of Start or Stub articles totaled less than 50%. In the previous twelve months, the overall project grew by 262 articles, of which 204, or 78%, were GA or better. Additionally, in terms of only storm articles, the project now has 46.6% of its articles as GA or better, and only 1/3 are Start or Stub. Unfortunately, much of that is due to newly-created articles easily attaining GA status. For storm articles, the total number of Start or Stub articles, currently 226, is about the same as it was a year ago. The lack of work on older articles is especially noticeable on season articles, where more than 75% of articles are still Stub or Start.
In an attempt to improve articles, there is talk of forming a collaboration between a few Wikipedians. The current project is to improve Hurricane Camille to FA status in time for its 40th anniversary this August. There is still plenty of work to be done, so if you're interested, any help would be appreciated.
Additionally, there is a recent discussion on the WPTC talk page about establishing a notability criteria. There was talk in the past of instating one, although this time the proposal is backed up by interpretations of existing Wikipedia policy. The proposal would limit articles to tropical cyclones that have at least one independent, reliable source other than any warning centers. Excluding cross-basin, off-season, or 64+ knot cyclones, the proposal would affect 26 articles, none of which affected land or lasted for an appreciable amount of time.

Number 25, April 4 The Hurricane Herald This is the monthly newsletter of WikiProject Tropical Cyclones. The Hurricane Herald aims to provide a summary of both the activities of the WikiProject and global tropical cyclones. If you wish to change how you receive this newsletter, or no longer wish to receive it, please add your username to the appropriate section on the mailing list. This newsletter covers March 2009. Please visit this page and bookmark any suggestions of interest to you. This will help improve monitoring of the WikiProject's articles.  Storm of the month Hamish indirectly caused a major environmental disaster along the Queensland coastline, when strong waves from the cyclone damaged the hull of a cargo ship, spilling 260 tonnes of fuel and oil into the ocean. The oil washed onto the coastline, endangering the environment prompting a costly cleanup. Offshore, the fishermen went missing after the boat was lost; one person was found, although the other two remained missing and were presumed dead. As the storm remained offshore, overall damage directly from the storm was minor, primarily from strong waves. Other tropical cyclone activity

Project News As part of the above discussion, there is a request for all active members to sign a list to affirm they are still active members in the project. If you don't sign the list, or if you don't consider yourself active anymore, your name will be placed on the inactive members list on May 1st. Hurricanehink has organised a challenge to try and improve some of the Tropical cyclone articles. The rules are that you must take either an seasonal or a storm article from one of the eight basins we have, that is either a Stub, Start class or a brand new article and improve it to at least GA status. However to avoid several articles on cyclones that did not affect land, Hurricanehink has limited the challenge to storms/seasonal articles of Mid-importance or higher. Their is an exception to this rule for the Central Pacific as Cyclones rarely form in this basin. - For full details of the challenge see the Project's Talkpage Project member list |

It's strongly recommended you answer the optional questions for you RfA. If you leave them unanswered, you will most likely receive opposes. Best of luck, Malinaccier (talk) 16:29, 10 April 2009 (UTC)
RFA
Hello. You might want to review and ponder User:Dlohcierekim/questions. Cheers, Dlohcierekim 02:01, 10 April 2009 (UTC)
In reviewing your edits I don't see experience in admin related areas. This is not an automatic disqualifier because of your article building and because you seem like a civil, even tempered user who is able to discuss differences of opinion and who is not prone to flying off the handle. Before allowing your RFA to go forward, you might want to review the Wikipedia:Administrators' reading list and look at some of the RFA questions in the RFA's currently extant. This will help you gauge your knowledge base against the expectations of the community. Also, don't be afraid to reach out to other editors for advice, guidance and information. Cheers, Dlohcierekim 02:11, 10 April 2009 (UTC)

Oh well, at least nobody's calling you a shit (:P), and they all appreciate your article work. --Dylan (chat, work, ping, sign) 16:59, 10 April 2009 (UTC)
- Nothing to do with me, but at this stage I think you would be advised to withdraw your nomination. You now have enough information to see what people do not like about you: you can spend some time working on those areas and then apply again down the road. Leaving the nomination open is a) humiliating for you and b) if you do apply again people will review the previous nom, the more opposes there are in there the more reasons people will find for opposing you again. There is no chance this is going to pass, sorry. SpinningSpark 20:17, 10 April 2009 (UTC)
- I concur, I wish this would pass as one of your supporters, but I'm regretful and sorry that it won't. You may wish to withdraw, or you may wish to garner more feedback. The choice is yours. —Cyclonenim | Chat 20:25, 10 April 2009 (UTC)

Impact Section of Hurricane Georges is loaded with major mistakes, bad grammar and improper editing
We, the class from the UWEC are studying weather, autism, drought, nature, science and human-related subjects. Unfortunately, the impact section of Hurricane Georges was edited dubiously, filled with too much questionable editing and terrible grammar. Before printing this article out, our class would like to say that the article needs to get redesigned, but we contacted you because the cleanup of Hurricane Georges' impact section would be too complex/complicated for us here.

1998 North Indian Ocean cyclone season
Could you please clarify the issue that you use sometimes 1-minute and sometimes 3-minute sustained winds in the small infoboxes. The introduction to the article suggests implicitely that back in 1998 the IMD did not publish windspeeds (at least I understood that this way and others might do the same), so giving 3-minute wind speeds there seems to be either a mistake or they're at least unsourced. Otherwise you wrote a good season article, which includes some more than the notorius "the storm did that and then moved there and was upgraded then downgraded as it moved again" like in the Pacific typhoon season article 2007. ;-) --Matthiasb (talk) 10:54, 29 May 2009 (UTC)

Rainfall maps for systems impacting Mexico
I would need the original data in order to construct the maps. They're not just tracing of SMN maps. Even if I did, Marco's map would likely not cover such a large area of Mexico. Thegreatdr (talk) 18:55, 5 June 2009 (UTC)
Re: track map program
I installed Mac Ports[1] before installing the program. Just follow the instructions because you will need to install X11 (which comes with your computer) and the development tools. After that you might need to install some other packages, which you can conveniently do with Mac Ports (formerly called Darwin Ports). Gettext was the only one I remember installing[2]. Some of the other stuff you need might come with this package, but check if you're missing anything and use Mac Ports to obtain it. Follow the instructions for the Track Map generator and it should work. If you use Mac Ports you can easily remove all of this. Potapych (talk) 04:02, 6 June 2009 (UTC)
- Just keep reading about it. The instructions on this page[3] tell you exactly how to do it (use the installer - don't try to do it by source). Potapych (talk) 23:16, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

Pacific typhoon articles
I noticed you added a bunch of data from JMA into the infoboxes. This discussion settled the issue that the project would use JTWC data in years prior to 2000. I guess you could add 10-min winds (though I don't like how the template displays them) but you shouldn't replace any of the pressures with JMA ones. That makes it too confusing.

- They didn't start naming anything until 2000, so many storms named by JTWC in prior years do not appear in their database, while many others in their database are nameless. It gets very confusing when you start mixing them up. Potapych (talk) 01:42, 16 June 2009 (UTC)
- I noticed your edit summary says 970mbar within SPac. They don't provide summaries for within the region, so I laid out these articles that way. OTOH, Australian articles do, so the articles there are set up that way. If you don't follow the reports closely, you'll have problems later. Potapych (talk) 12:17, 16 June 2009 (UTC)
If you have any spare time...
If you have any spare time, could you make track maps for Tropical Depressions of 1974? The data is here: [5] and the storm numbers are in the season article.
04/05 SPAC
I cant get on IRC so i thought id let ya know i did a bit of work on the table in 04/05 spac - GP has next to nothing for 16F so i will have to look through the MT archive and find it though GP gives us a clue with it being absorbed by Shelia apparently.
If you get five mins can u add this prediction from PAGASA to the 2009 PTS [6] Thanks Jason Rees (talk) 16:04, 16 June 2009 (UTC)

metro crash
The article is very much news but there's some interest in it. It is more referenced than many video game articles. Even I added to it! In the end, it will almost certainly remain as an article, which is ok with me despite it really being news. User F203 (talk) 23:30, 22 June 2009 (UTC)
