GA Review

[edit]
This review is transcluded from Talk:Hurricane Debbie (1969)/GA1. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.

The issue I see preventing GA is mainly one of referencing. References 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 12, and 13 are directing wikipedia users to the wrong place (the overarching storm wallet scanning project page rather than the individual discussions referenced). Also, unlike the other storm pages, there is no information regarding whether or not this storm name was retired and/or used again...this information needs to be added. I'm placing the article on hold for the usual week so the issues can be resolved. Thegreatdr (talk) 16:58, 7 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I've pointed the public advisories to specific links, and added the naming info (albeit without a source). Do you know any citation I can use to back up the lack of retirement and subsequent/prior uses of the name? –Juliancolton | Talk 03:20, 9 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
List of historic tropical cyclone names should have refs which concern changes in the naming lists, if Debbie with this spelling was not used again. Our usual NHC link for retirement could suffice if you're looking for a source for it not being retired, because if it was not, it will not be mentioned on that page. As for whether or not the name was used before or since, HURDAT works fine. Thegreatdr (talk) 10:39, 9 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Done. –Juliancolton | Talk 15:11, 9 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
