GA Review
edit- This review is transcluded from Talk:Tropical Depression Two-E (2006)/GA1. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.
The article is great. It satisfies the GA criteria. However, I am placing its promotion on hold until one thing is cleared up. The article currently states "at 1500 UTC on June 3 the NHC classified the system as Tropical Depression Two-E". This statement is not directly cited but the time of classification is noted in two of the references: [1] says "1800 UTC" and [2] says "1500 GMT". Is this one of these sources in error? or am I missing something? If there are two values floating around perhaps the statement in the article should be cited directly to one of those. Also, the article states "partially flooded 42 houses" and is referenced to [3] which states "about 40 homes" - 42 seems oddly specific.
Also, this won't disqualify the article from GA status, but I thought I'd bring it up here. "developed good outflow" - perhaps something more descriptive than good would be better. Illustrative adjectives can also help avoid losing readers to other articles if they can catch the meaning without reading another article. --maclean 21:49, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
- Wow, you really checked the thing out closely, nice! :) The sentence is cited by the next reference, which says 1500z (z meaning Zulu, which is UTC). The flooding thing was me getting a tad confused in translation, but you're right, it should be "about 40 homes". For the "good outflow", that was the wording in the source. Sometimes the source is more specific, saying something like well-defined outflow. It's not really the case here, and I can't think of a better wording than that. Thanks for the review, and I hope I cleared that up. ♬♩ Hurricanehink (talk) 03:37, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

There's nothing much about the tropical depression here (it did some damage, but it is minimal), and most other storms in 2006 PHS FT are now merged. SMB99thx my edits 09:00, 11 November 2020 (UTC)
- Support TD's are not notable, with Noah's 19E 2018, being the notable exception (no pun intended). 🐔 Chicdat Bawk to me! 11:44, 11 November 2020 (UTC)
- No damage and death. a weak depression MergeJanm 7 (talk) 20:13, 11 November 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose enough information on damage. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 14:39, 12 November 2020 (UTC)
- @ChessEric, Cyclonetracker, and Dam222: What about you? SMB99thx my edits 01:30, 14 November 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose There is enough information about the impacts and there is a chance it can be expanded. Doesn't need to be merged.ChessEric (talk · contribs) 02:56, 14 November 2020 (UTC)
- Support It did not affect much, so it would be appropriate to merge it Dam222 (talk) 06:45, 14 November 2020 (UTC)
- @Dam222: I think you mean support then.ChessEric (talk · contribs) 07:03, 14 November 2020 (UTC)
- Support Not much impact, and nothing notable otherwise. Gex4pls (talk) 23:05, 15 November 2020 (UTC)
- What is the point? This applies to almost every merger proposal in the last few weeks (months?) and I've not gotten a response other than "GA's can be merged" and something something no impact on land. We are suppose to build an encyclopedia; not take down established articles just to feel like we accomplished something. YE Pacific Hurricane 05:25, 18 November 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose – passes WP:GNG, sufficient coverage. This merging crusade is getting rather tiresome. ~ Cyclonebiskit (chat) 05:27, 18 November 2020 (UTC)
- Comment I think this is enough. @Hurricanehink: consider closing this as No consensus. SMB99thx my edits 06:14, 18 November 2020 (UTC)
