• Remove dab from top.YE ^{Pacific Hurricane} 23:07, 25 September 2011 (UTC)
  • Why? People might be looking for the Bob of 79 or 85. --♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 01:06, 26 September 2011 (UTC)
    • Didn't WPTC agree to not have dab's at the top of pages (and in the see also section instead)?YE ^{Pacific Hurricane} 04:29, 26 September 2011 (UTC)
      • That's only for storm articles with the year. The retired storms can certainly keep the dab. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 11:12, 26 September 2011 (UTC)
• "Operationally the system was not declared a tropical depression until 0600 UTC on August 16 after a reconnaissance mission into the storm found a closed circulation and flight level winds of 37 mph (60 km/h).[2]" comma before the. YE ^{Pacific Hurricane}
  • Donezo!! --♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 01:06, 26 September 2011 (UTC)
• "The storm slowly intensified as convection was displaced from the center of circulation; however, upper-level outflow was well-defined and intensification of the storm was expected as it tracked over the Gulf Stream.[4] " I'd link to atmospheric circulation inestead of eye (cyclone))
  • Good call. --♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 01:06, 26 September 2011 (UTC)
• " By 0600 UTC, Hurricane Hunters recorded flight level winds of 140 mph (225 km/h), corresponding to surface winds of 115 mph (185 km/h). "link to Hurricane Hunters IMO. YE ^{Pacific Hurricane} 23:07, 25 September 2011 (UTC)
  • Donezo!! --♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 01:06, 26 September 2011 (UTC)
• "Significantly cooler sea surface temperatures in the path of the hurricane resulted in weakening, leading to the eye becoming cloud-filled. Later on August 19, the western portion of the eyewall brushed the eastern tip of Long Island" how cool were the SSTs's? 25C? 26C?
  • It doesn't say :'( --♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 01:06, 26 September 2011 (UTC)
• Why does watches and warnings have it's own section? It is in any other TC ASFASIKOF? YE ^{Pacific Hurricane}
  • That was another editor's choice, and I believe it works well for Bob, due to the many upgrades/downgrades. I'm not sure what ASFASIKOF is... --♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 01:06, 26 September 2011 (UTC)
  • As Far as I know of.YE ^{Pacific Hurricane}
• "In the Bay of Fundy, fishermen were urged to return to port in fears of large swells from Hurricane Bob.[20]" can this one-sentence paragraph be combined with anther due to its small size.YE ^{Pacific Hurricane}
  • I think it's fine on its own. It's not like it's its own section. It's only a mini-Canada paragraph. --♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 01:06, 26 September 2011 (UTC)
• "Before Bob made landfall in New England, it passed directly over Block Island, Rhode Island." wtf is Block Island? Wikilink it please. YE ^{Pacific Hurricane}
  • Block Island is fuckin wikilinked biotch! (check lede) --♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 01:06, 26 September 2011 (UTC)
• "was replaced with "Bill" in the 1997 season.[65]" How is this relavant to the article? YE ^{Pacific Hurricane}
  • Because the name was retired due to this storm. We always list what the replacement name is. --♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 01:06, 26 September 2011 (UTC)
    • What does that have to do with the storm though. I am trying to set a precedent for other articles. YE ^{Pacific Hurricane} 04:29, 26 September 2011 (UTC)
      • Because this storm was retired and the name was replaced. That's all encyclopediac info. If you want to change stuff, you should propose it. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 11:12, 26 September 2011 (UTC)

Nice job finding so much impact! However, I am going to leave this article on hold for now. YE ^{Pacific Hurricane} 23:07, 25 September 2011 (UTC)

• Yay! Hope it's better now. --♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 01:06, 26 September 2011 (UTC)
