Hello User:Hurricanehink. I will be reviewing this article tonight. After skimming through, I must say, nice job! When I first saw it, I was like, "damn, this is way better than the 2002 NIO." However, there are a few minor issues with I would like you to address/fix within the next week.--12george1 (talk) 03:17, 4 May 2014 (UTC)

• Maybe you should mention in the lede whether the season was inactive, average, or above average. Judging by the information I added to the 2002 NIO, this season was also inactive. If not in the lede, you should definitely mention this in the season summary

• Added. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 03:29, 4 May 2014 (UTC)

• " It is possible that the storm contributed to a deadly heatwave in India due to shifting air currents." - Not sure if heatwave is one word or two, but the article title has heat wave as two words. Also, wikilink India, since you have wikilinked Sri Lanka and Myanmar.

• Alright, split up heatwave, and linked. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 03:29, 4 May 2014 (UTC)

• Death toll is too low in the infobox. Here's the death toll for each TC: 254 for BOB 01 (Sri Lanka), 21 for BOB 04, 19 for BOB 05, and 83 for BOB 07. 254 + 21 + 19 + 83 = 377

• Well, I didn't include BoB05, since that was from overall monsoonal rains, not just from the depression. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 03:29, 4 May 2014 (UTC)
  • The number is still wrong, because 377 - 19 = 358--12george1 (talk) 03:32, 4 May 2014 (UTC)

• "weakening over land, passing near the Andoman and Nicobar Islands" - Andoman Islands? Never heard of them :P

• Fixed :P ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 03:29, 4 May 2014 (UTC)

• "Local news reports indicated that the storm produced 10 ft (3.0 m) waves as it moved ashore," - Why did you have feet first here? It should be head first. Jk :P Meters/metres should go first if you are using metric units throughout the article.

• Oops, it should be 10 m. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 03:29, 4 May 2014 (UTC)

• Again, nice work Hurricanehink! After these issues are fixed/addressed, I will be more than happy to pass this article and list it as a Good Article. Regards,--12george1 (talk) 03:16, 4 May 2014 (UTC)

• Thanks! ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 03:29, 4 May 2014 (UTC)
  • I pointed out another minor error on IRC, which you fixed. Well, that was quick! Good job on this page. I will be passing this article and listing it as a Good Article. Congratulations, --12george1 (talk) 03:39, 4 May 2014 (UTC)
