Merge proposal
editThe following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
I would like to merge List of retired South Pacific cyclone names and List of retired Australian region cyclone names together and call it List of tropical cyclone names retired in the Southern Hemisphere. Over the last few years, I have mentally gone back and forth over the proposal at various times and have realised that merging them would be the best way forward. This is because there is a lot of overlap between systems in the two regions, with names retired from the Aussie list because of impacts to the Pacific Islands (eg: Jasmine, Harold, Gabrielle) and visa versa (eg: Gordon, Kerry, Sose, Yasi). I would note that the templates Template:Retired Australian region cyclones and Template:Retired South Pacific cyclones would be merged together into Template:Tropical cyclone names retired in the Southern Hemisphere if this proposal is accepted.Jason Rees (talk) 19:43, 27 October 2023 (UTC)
- But that would include Indian Ocean cyclones. -- 65.92.247.90 (talk) 21:43, 28 October 2023 (UTC)
- Oppose This would mix ocean basin lists. The Australian list should perhaps just be deleted. Replace it with the existing South Pacific list and a Southern Indian Ocean (ie. Madagascar, southern Western Australia) list, and the western northern Pacific list (ie. Philippines, Japan, etc) -- 65.92.247.90 (talk) 21:43, 28 October 2023 (UTC)
- Yes it would include tropical cyclone names that were retired in the Indian Ocean by the RA V TCC, but remember that there are no tropical cyclone names retired in the SWIO apart from Freddy since the RA I TCC only uses a name once. I would also note that some "mixture of the oceans" would have to take place under your proposal since some systems move across 135E into the Pacific Ocean from the Indian Ocean (EG Oswald 2010, Seth 2021) and visa versa. I would also note that Page 27 of the Tropical Cyclone Operational Plan for the region combines the list of names.Jason Rees (talk) 14:18, 29 October 2023 (UTC)
- Some storms also move from the Atlantic to the Pacific, or from one side of the Pacific to the other. I don't see why a specific oceanic region article should ever lists storms that never occur within that region of an ocean (instead of a completely different ocean that never crosses over to that ocean). -- 65.92.247.90 (talk) 00:59, 30 October 2023 (UTC)
- We wouldn't be though since the title of the proposed article is List of tropical cyclone names retired in the Southern Hemisphere and are after all following the RA V TCCs lead by combining the lists.Jason Rees (talk) 10:16, 30 October 2023 (UTC)

- Oppose They’re different basins and thus should be seperate, they also have different agencies tracking them 96.255.161.65 (talk) 21:50, 28 October 2023 (UTC)
- I do not see the relevancy of this argument as the boundary between the Australian region and the South Pacific is not a physical boundary but a political boundary and is treated as such by various sources such as the JTWC, NIWA and the BoM. I would also note that it is the same WMO Committee that retires the names in the Aus Region and the SPAC Region. Jason Rees (talk) 14:18, 29 October 2023 (UTC)
- Oppose as per the above arguments. This is akin to merging the NATL and EPAC retirement articles, along with the Judy and Kevin situation. The SPAC and AUS are drastically different in terms of retirement standards. The AUS names would probably flood both basins. Infinity The Second (talk) 20:22, 8 November 2023 (UTC)
