Todo
editContent is good. The storm history and impact need to be separated to give the article a little structure. Some grammar also needs fix. Jdorje 19:45, 11 January 2006 (UTC)
- I noticed a few "shes" in the article.--Nilfanion (talk) 22:18, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
Picture
editThe storm track shows Babe of the Atlantic. What's with that!Icelandic Hurricane 21:46, 6 February 2006 (UTC)
- That's because there was a Babe in the Atlantic at the same time, and the Atlantic Babe got its track map first. Hurricanehink 20:19, 7 February 2006 (UTC)
- Yep, when I first decided on the naming format for the track maps I asked Eric if the had ever been 2 storms in the same year with the same name, but I don't think I waited to get an answer. Babe's not the only one...there also the Alices of 1954 (which I called Alice1 and Alice2). Now for my next question...which Babe was first, the Atlantic or Pacific one? — jdorje (talk) 21:46, 7 February 2006 (UTC)
- Hm, nevermind about the order. But the question is: are there any other instances of 2 named storms with the same name in the same year? — jdorje (talk) 21:51, 7 February 2006 (UTC)
- WPAC Babe reached TS status only 24 hours before Atlantic Babe. A quick check on the List of tropical cyclone names used in more than one basin shows these:
- Alex (1998)- Atlantic and WPAC
- Alice (1953)- Atlantic and WPAC, 2 Alices in Atlantic in 1954
- Betty (1972)- Atlantic and WPAC
- Carmen (1974)- A and WPAC
- Fabian (1985)- A and WPAC
- Irma (1978)- A and WPAC
- Linda (1997)- EPAC and WPAC

- Ugh. Where does this list come from? Digital Typhoon shows no Alex of 1998 (but does show Alice of 1953). — jdorje (talk) 01:25, 9 February 2006 (UTC)
- Unisys and JTWC show an Alex in 1998. Hurricanehink 01:29, 9 February 2006 (UTC)

- I'd add when Babe became a typhoon in the lead. YE Pacific Hurricane
- You should mention that Ryuku is part of Japan because the layman may or may not now that and thus be confused by the first sentence. YE Pacific Hurricane
- "Coincidentally, Typhoon Babe and Atlantic Hurricane Babe existed at the same time from September 3–9.[3]" too trivial IMO for lead. YE Pacific Hurricane
- I feel that this is the most appropriate place since it is a little factoid not related to the actual history of the storm. It doesn't have a place in the Met. Hist. as suggested in my opinion. Cyclonebiskit (talk) 13:05, 19 April 2013 (UTC)
- "Hours later, a weather reconnaissance mission into the depression revealed winds of 75 km/h (45 mph), prompting the JTWC to designate the system as Tropical Storm Babe. [2] " m space between ref. YE Pacific Hurricane
- "while situated approximately 465 km (290 mi)" 465 is kinda random number so would "approximately" be good here? YE Pacific Hurricane
- It's fine as is. Cyclonebiskit (talk) 13:05, 19 April 2013 (UTC)
- "Up until September 8, Typh" no need for "Up" IMO. YE Pacific Hurricane
- Changed Cyclonebiskit (talk) 13:05, 19 April 2013 (UTC)
- "Coincidentally, Typhoon Babe and Atlantic Hurricane Babe existed at the same time from September 3–9.[3]" stick that lead sentence at the end of the 3rd paragraph of the MH somewhere. YE Pacific Hurricane
- See previous response on this tidbit. Cyclonebiskit (talk) 13:05, 19 April 2013 (UTC)
- Link to MWR and NOAA in Ref 3. YE Pacific Hurricane
- Link to AP in ref 7. YE Pacific Hurricane
- Link to UPI in ref 8. YE Pacific Hurricane
Otherwise, it's very good. YE Pacific Hurricane 12:47, 19 April 2013 (UTC)
- That should meet all the concerns. Thanks for the review YE! Cyclonebiskit (talk) 13:05, 19 April 2013 (UTC).

Typhoon Babe (1977) → Typhoon Babe – There were Typhoons named Babe in also other years. However, 1977 Babe caused the most damage. --126.208.11.200 (talk) 02:07, 4 December 2022 (UTC)
- Oppose – The target title is taken, and this primarytopic grab is not clearly justified. And the three RMs should have been done as one to save us a lot of redundant talk. Dicklyon (talk) 03:47, 4 December 2022 (UTC)
