This was once one of the worst Atlantic hurricane seasons in the project (in terms of quality). After hard work at in for only about a month and a half, we are now presenting it for Good Topic Candidacy. As all but
Ione passed within that time period, these articles are clearly up to date with Good Article standards.--

Why is Hurricane 2 got a parenthetical 2 after it's name?--

There is a 2 in parenthesis after Hurricane Alice because it formed in 1954, but it wasn't named in real time until 1955.--

Did you guys decide on which seasons should have a separate timeline article?

Not exactly, we haven't reached consensus, but a general agreement and practice is that only the busiest seasons should have a timeline. ♫

It's more of an optional thing, IMO should not be a requirement for GT.

A few of these your mentioned are quite concerning and while I am not a delegate, these issues IMO are fairly small (in a few cases, not even part of the GA criteria) and IMO should not hold this topic back from promotion.

Despite the fact that the aforementioned issues are mostly minor, I went ahead and fixed most of them since they all, well, minor, and it prevents them from being a qualm in future situations. The issues I did not go through yet are linking of common terms, but this is not a factor in the overall GTC, and can be easily fixed using AWB, which I plan to do sometime soon. TheAustinMan(

To whom it may interest, please note I did not oppose the topic, I simply made an effort to actually look at the constituent parts rather than simply blindly supporting it. I appreciate that some editors aren't interested in maintaining the quality of the articles, but I also appreciate the work done by TheAustinMan in addressing the issues, even if everyone considered them to be "well, minor".

Delegate Comment - This topic has been stalled since March 20th. It would be helpful if we get more responses before a consensus is reached.

Support The only problem I had with this was working out what the colours and numbers in the navbox meant, but that's because I live in the damp but hurricane-less UK, I imagine it's obvious on your side of the pond Jimfbleak - talk to me? 10:59, 20 April 2013 (UTC)reply
