Invitation to join the Tropical Cyclones WikiProject
![]() |
Please accept this invitation to join the Tropical cyclones WikiProject (WPTC), a WikiProject dedicated to improving all articles associated with tropical cyclones. WPTC hosts some of Wikipedia's highest-viewed articles, and needs your help for the upcoming cyclone season. Simply click here to accept! | ![]() |
Hi there. I'm LightandDark2000. I saw that you seem to have an interest in editing tropical cyclone articles. I liked the image you added to the Mediterranean tropical-like cyclones article (even though it's upside-down); it's really hard to find good color images for those storms dating before 2000. Would you like to join the Tropical Cyclones WikiProject? We could use more editors like you. Anyway, I hope you enjoy your time here. LightandDark2000 🌀 (talk) 03:56, 22 May 2019 (UTC)

Hi, and welcome to the Tropical cyclone WikiProject! We are a group of Wikipedia editors who help to improve articles related to tropical cyclones on Wikipedia.
Looking for somewhere to start? Here are a few suggestions.
- You can check out topics on the main page.
- You can re-assess tropical cyclone-related articles to assure they are up to standards.
- See the to do list for the WikiProject, and opt to try and complete some of those tasks.
- Check out the guidelines to get an idea of the project's standards.
- If you want to work on an article, Category:Stub-Class Tropical cyclone articles is a great place to start.
- You can also check out the newsletter.
- For further information, you could join the WikiProject Tropical cyclones IRC channel or Discord server.
If you have any comments, suggestions, or would like to talk about the project in general, feel free to leave a message on the talk page.
Feel free to join our discord server for any questions or suggestions. Happy editing! ╲\FireBlade708Talk/╱ 12:56, 25 May 2019 (UTC)
Welcome to Wikipedia!
Hey there, welcome to Wikipedia! I've been an editor since 2004, and an administrator since 2008, so if you have any questions about writing a good article, how to edit, or how to find good resources, I, or the many other editors, would be glad to help. Happy editing - make sure everything you add is true and verifiable. If you add anything new, be sure you add a reference. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 15:53, 28 May 2019 (UTC)
- I'm offering a mentorship program to new editors, if you'd like to learn how to write a good new article. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 13:07, 30 May 2019 (UTC)
June 2019 WPTC Newsletter
Volume XIV, Issue 39, May 31, 2019 ![]() The Hurricane Herald is the arbitrarily periodical newsletter of WikiProject Tropical Cyclones. The newsletter aims to provide in summary the recent activities and developments of the WikiProject, in addition to global tropical cyclone activity. The Hurricane Herald has been running since its first edition ran on June 4, 2006; it has been almost thirteen years since that time. If you wish to receive or discontinue subscription to this newsletter, please visit the mailing list. This issue of The Hurricane Herald covers all project related events from April 14–May 31, 2019. This edition's editor and author is Hurricane Noah (talk · contribs). Please visit this page and bookmark any suggestions of interest to you. This will help improve the newsletter and other cyclone-related articles. Past editions can be viewed here. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
Article of the month, by Jason Rees History of tropical cyclone naming - The practice of using names to identify tropical cyclones goes back several centuries, with storms named after places, saints or things they hit before the formal start of naming in each basin. The credit for the first usage of personal names for weather systems is given to the Queensland Government Meteorologist Clement Wragge, who named tropical cyclones and anticyclones between 1887 and 1907. This system of naming fell into disuse for several years after Wragge retired, until it was revived in the latter part of World War II for the Western Pacific basin. Over the following decades, various naming schemes have been introduced for the world's oceans, including for parts of the Atlantic, Pacific and the Indian Ocean. The majority of these lists are compiled by the World Meteorological Organization's tropical cyclone committee for the region and include names from different cultures as well as languages. Over the years there has been controversy over the names used at various times, with names being dropped for religious and political reasons. For example, female names were exclusively used in the basins at various times between 1945 - 2000 and were the subject of several protests. The names of significant tropical cyclones in the North Atlantic Ocean, Pacific Ocean and Australian region are retired from the naming lists and replaced with another name, at meetings of the various tropical cyclone committees. Storm of the month and other tropical activity ![]() Cyclone Fani was an extremely severe cyclonic storm that made landfall in Odisha, India on May 3. The storm achieved peak intensity as a near Category 5-equivalent cyclone with 3-minute sustained winds of 215 km/h (130 mph), 1-minute sustained winds of 250 km/h (155 mph), and a minimum central pressure of 937 hPa (mbar). Fani caused over $1.8 billion (2019 USD) in damage in India and Bangladesh and killed at least 89 people.
New WikiProject Members since the last newsletter in April 2019 More information can be found here. This list lists members who have joined/rejoined the WikiProject since the release of the last issue in April 2019. Sorted chronologically. Struckout users denote users who have left or have been banned. To our new members: welcome to the project, and happy editing! Feel free to check the to-do list at the bottom right of the newsletter for things that you might want to work on. To our veteran members: thank you for your edits and your tireless contributions! Editorial for welcoming new users, by Hurricanehink Every year, editors new and old help maintain the new season of season articles. The older users are likely used to the standards of the project, such as how to Wikilink and reference properly. Newer users might make mistakes, and they might make them over and over again if they don't know better. If anyone (who happens to read this) comes across a new user, please don't bite, because with enough pushback, they'll decide that this group of editors is too mean, and unfun. This is all a volunteer project; no one can force anyone to do anything. We're all on here because of our love of knowledge and tropical cyclones. If you find someone new, consider using the official WPTC welcome template - Wikipedia:WikiProject Tropical cyclones/Welcome. I also encourage that if you know any tropical cyclone researchers, please speak up and try recruiting them to edit. Veteran editors can't keep editing forever. Life gets busy, and the real world beckons! Member of the month (edition) – Yellow Evan ![]() Yellow Evan has been involved with WPTC since 2008. Since the last newsletter, Yellow Evan has taken 5 typhoon articles to good article status as well as created 2 more. Overall, he has created and/or significantly contributed to more than 130 good articles. Your work in the Western Pacific Basin is invaluable... Thank you for your contributions!

Note
Hello SaiTheCyclone. I don't think we've interacted before now, but I noticed what you wrote on your user page and was saddened to see it. I have blanked what you wrote because personal attacks are not allowed on Wikipedia. (Please do not reinsert it.) However, I hope that you reconsider your decision to leave after whatever triggered your anger subsides. Mz7 (talk) 01:21, 10 July 2021 (UTC)
