Hurricanes Nana and Josephine (1990)

[edit]

Please do not un-merge these articles. They were merged due to their short length and lack of sufficient referencing. If you would like to keep those articles, please ensure that they are long enough (Read over some featured articles to get an idea how long) and work on them in a sandbox, i.e. Hurricanekiller1994/Sandbox1 or Hurricanekiller1994/Hurricane Nana (1990). If you have any questions about this, feel free to ask me on my talk page. Cheers, Cyclonebiskit 21:47, 21 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I'm only sixteen myself and I never said you couldn't keep the articles. They just need to be expanded thoroughly before being put into the mainspace. I'll be happy to help out in any way to expand the articles if you would like. Another way to keep the information you've already worked on would be to put the information on the season article since there might not be enough to warrant their own articles. Cheers, Cyclonebiskit 22:17, 21 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Age of people on wikipedia

[edit]

You're much closer to the average age of the people on here than I am...which means it's hard to use age as an excuse to rail against the system. Most people on here are in their late teens/early 20s. Experience, yes. Age, no. Most of us realize there's a couple year spin up on here. Thegreatdr (talk) 22:20, 21 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Re: You are sixteen?

[edit]

I started roughly two years ago. You learn all the technical stuff over time. It's confusing at first (and at time frustrating) but it'll get easier. As for the updating, there are only so many of us available to update the articles at certain times. Cyclonebiskit 22:30, 21 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

2008-09 SPAC

[edit]

Just a quick note to remind you that we use RSMC Nadi data primarily not JTWC, as the JTWC is unoffical. At the time of my reversion RSMC Nadi were still issuing advisories so i reverted your edits. Thanks Jason Rees (talk) 02:56, 27 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Quick Question

[edit]

Why did you add the update tag to the WPAC 2009? Thanks Jason Rees (talk) 17:55, 3 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Cyclone Bijli pic not working

[edit]

I'm working on it right now, hopefully it should be fixed soon. Cyclonebiskit 23:38, 17 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I was just testing to see if it was just an upload issue. Apparently it's an issue with the image, I've reverted to the original for the time being until this issue is sorted out. Cyclonebiskit 23:44, 17 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please read the guidelines at Template:Ongoing weather, especially the part that says "It is not intended to be used to mark an article that merely has recent news articles about the topic". Templates like this one exist to warn our readers about rapidly changing articles, they do not exist to tell our readers that something is currently ongoing, that's what the lead of the article is supposed state. The template states "Information may change rapidly as the event progresses", and when adding it to an article you should first think whether this is actually true for the article. 2009 North Indian Ocean cyclone season has been edited two times so far (excluding my edit and your revert) this month, so there's clearly no rapid change going on. --Conti| 18:56, 29 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Just in case you've missed it, I started a discussion about the template at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Tropical cyclones#Template:Ongoing weather. It'd be great if you could comment there. --Conti| 15:36, 10 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks

TD1 article

[edit]

Please don't work on the article. Someone else is working on it already, and there isn't even a need for the article yet, anyway. It only dissipated a few hours ago, and pretty much the only info on it is already in the season article. ♬♩ Hurricanehink (talk) 02:52, 20 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

ACE

[edit]

ACE is calculated every 6 hours, or every full advisory. So if Andres is 60mph at 11am PDT, it wont be calculated as its an Intermediate Advisory. Darren23 (Contribs) 18:14, 22 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

1985 Pacific images

[edit]

Saw your comment on the talk page of the 1985 Pacific hurricane season, I have successfully located an image of Hurricane Rick while near peak intensity and have added it into the article. You can get images on every hurricane of the season at this archive page, however the images are of poor quality and need to be cropped before being uploaded. Anyways if you have any questions, feel free to contact me. -Marcusmax(speak) 00:30, 8 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

PTS

[edit]

Re your last edit summuary. Ive submitted a request for it to be protected. It should be done but just bare with it for now. :) Jason Rees (talk) 16:41, 8 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

How to upload images

[edit]

Thanks for the reply, assuming you are going to crop hurricanes from the link provided I can give you a step by step. process. Here is the step by step process:

  • 1. It is advised you get a Wikimedia Commons account, which is free just like Wikipedia you can sign up here.
  • 2. Now find a hurricane image from the link provided by myself, or another one that you find and zoom in on the image. Upon zooming in on the image right click on your mouse and pick copy.
  • 3. Use Paint or a similar software to crop your photo, you can find paint under the accessories section on your desktop/laptop. Now Paste the image you copied on step 2 onto paint.
  • 4. Proceed to to highlight the outline of the hurricane in question using the select tool on paint. Drag the box around the hurricane/storm and then click copy, exit out of paint without saving and pull up a new paint screen. Then paste the image you just copied onto this screen. It will look small but that is okay, make sure there is no white space around the image and click on the corners of the page and shrick it until all the white space is gone and the background around the image is gray.
  • 5. Almost done, just be sure to save the file as a .JPG or .JPEG image.
  • 6. The last step is to upload the image; return to WikimediaCommons and go to the Upload Screen. Click it is from a US Government Source then browse for the file. Choose a file destination name such as "Hurricane_Rick_1985".JPG and for author just put in "NOAA GOES 6" if thats the satellite you used but if you used another then you would put in the name of that one. Put in the date the image was taken, decription would be what the image is of and finally skip to Licensing and choose Original work of the US National Oceanic and Atmoshpheric Association. And the category would be 1985 Pacific hurricane season. then click upload.

Hopefully that helps, if you need more info then contact me and I will respond quickly. -Marcusmax(speak) 17:30, 8 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Sorry if response was late I got dragged away from the computer. To put a picture on a page simply add this phrase into the infobox, "|image=_________" the blank would be the file name of your image and also no quotes. You can see an example like the one I did with Hurricane Rick. Yes you can get onto commons through your Wikipedia page, you must click on my prefrences on the top right of Wikipedia. From there find "Manage my global Account" or create a "global account" or so I think, it is hard to say because I have been using a global account for a couple years so I don't remember. But if you sign up for that then all you have to do is just go to the commons page, while logged in on Wikipedia and you have a instant account!! -Marcusmax(speak) 21:34, 8 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You interested in this?

[edit]

I can see that you have been reverting some articles, and I think you should use Twinkle, which helps revert vandalism, warn potential vandals, tag pages for deletion, report vandals, and that sort of stuff. You might find it useful and I use it myself for edits like this. You need Mozilla Firefox, safari or I think opera, and you can enable it by going to My Preferences and going to gadgets and click on Twinkle. Thanks, and happy editing :)Darren23 My Contributions 22:50, 14 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You have been accused of sockpuppetry. Please refer to Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/HurricaneTyphoonCyclone for evidence. Please make sure you make yourself familiar with notes for the suspect before editing the evidence page. –Juliancolton | Talk 22:14, 17 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Season effects tables

[edit]

Please know the proper way of how to make these season effects tables in season articles. I fixed 1996 Atlantic hurricane season here. Thanks, and happy editing. Darren23Edits|Mail 17:02, 20 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please don't alter my posts

It's generally considered inappropriate to do so. Thank you. –Juliancolton | Talk 02:01, 23 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Rollback

[edit]

I have granted rollback rights to your account; the reason for this is that after a review of some of your contributions, I believe you can be trusted to use rollback correctly, and for its intended usage of reverting vandalism, and that you will not abuse it by reverting good-faith edits or to revert-war. For information on rollback, see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback and Wikipedia:Rollback feature. If you do not want rollback, just let me know, and I'll remove it. Good luck and thanks. —Ed (talkmajestic titan) 01:39, 15 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]


After looking at the history of 2010 Sumatra earthquake, you appeared to need it. :) —Ed (talkmajestic titan) 01:39, 15 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Reviewer granted

[edit]

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged revisions, underwent a two-month trial which ended on 15 August 2010. Its continued use is still being discussed by the community, you are free to participate in such discussions. Many articles still have pending changes protection applied, however, and the ability to review pending changes continues to be of use.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under level 1 pending changes and edits made by non-reviewers to level 2 pending changes protected articles (usually high traffic articles). Pending changes was applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.

For the guideline on reviewing, see Wikipedia:Reviewing. Being granted reviewer rights doesn't grant you status nor change how you can edit articles even with pending changes. The general help page on pending changes can be found here, and the general policy for the trial can be found here.

If you do not want this user right, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Dabomb87 (talk) 01:51, 17 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi -- back in April 2009 you cleanup-tagged this article (actually, you updated the date on the existing tag).

I just did some housecleaning there; do you think it should still be tagged? If so, can you suggest what still needs fixing? Thanks, NapoliRoma (talk) 21:33, 19 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
