• I'd add when Babe became a typhoon in the lead. YE ^{Pacific Hurricane}
  • Added Cyclonebiskit (talk) 13:05, 19 April 2013 (UTC)
• 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}
  • Added 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]" 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}
  • Fixed Cyclonebiskit (talk) 13:05, 19 April 2013 (UTC)
• "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)
