Allen reached 190mph. The storm details say it reached Cat 5 three times. So why does the introduction say "at Category 4 strength or stronger"? Is this a disputed landfall strength as opposed to peak strength or something?
Also ACE page says season had 11/9/2. Which was the other major hurricane? Only Ivan indicates Cat 2; none of the other storms say anything about their peak strength. I think this leaves the impression they are all Cat 1.

Added Frances's peak windspeed of 115mph.

I think at least one must be missing. Hurricane Frances should be the 10th tropical depression, so another one must be between that and Allen.

Er, wait. Maybe not.

Three additional depressions are noted in the NOAA's records - two before Allen (in addition to TD 1) and one between Ivan and Jeanne. These should be added to the article. — Preceding

Lead
Instead of 15 use fifteen since you use that style in the rest of the article.
Season summary
This section looks good. However, you do not need to link Hermine in this section since you already have in the lead.
Storms
There is one thing holding this section back.. most of the sections start with 'A tropical wave exited the west coast of Africa. Anything you could change it to?
Storm names
Looking good.
References
No need to link National Climatic Data Center over and over again, only needed for the first use.
The rest of the references look good.
I will just wait for you to fix the things I have brought up before I pass or fail this article.

Timeline?
The timeline is the only article that's holding up this from becoming a good topic. Does anyone plan on working on that? Would anyone mind if it gets merged? There's barely additional content in the timeline article, and it doesn't seem like a good fit for this season (not too many storms, few concurrent storms). Any thoughts? ♫

Fails
WP:NWX since there was no damage or impact. Not really a meteorological reason for the article to exist either. The records mentioned could be summarized within the season article.

Weak keep the records are a bit numerous to fully describe in the article, tho 1989 was a quiet season. — Preceding

None of the records are substantive, more like distinctions really, and can easily be described in the season article.

Support merge – This hurricane stayed over open waters and did not have any effects on land. Nor was it covered by the media in any appreciable manner. Additionally, the article is very thin on substance. Therefore, it would be better to cover the hurricane as part of the season article rather than as a standalone article.

Support - there isn't much more in the Karl article than what's already in the section in the season article. ♫
