Cyclone Winifred

edit

Winifred making landfall in Queensland

  • ALT1:... that Cyclone Winifred (pictured) was the most severe tropical cyclone to strike northern Queensland since Cyclone Althea in 1971?
  • Reviewed: Didemnum molle
  • Comment: Moved to mainspace from userspace sandbox, definitely long enough, both hooks (main and alt) cited immediately afterward, within policy/well-referenced, QPQ'd already as noted.

  • I'm about to do a DYK on a weather related article myself! So I've been following this article during the sandbox phase. Everything checks out. I slightly prefer ALT1, as "significantly impact" is a little vague. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 01:01, 18 February 2014 (UTC)
  • Yeah, I was a bit concerned about that myself; to the folks working with the DYK stuff: please use alt1 (the hook with Cyclone Althea) per above. Thanks for the quick review! Cloudchased (talk) 02:01, 18 February 2014 (UTC)


I'm not questioning the review as such, but the above commentary is a bit too cursory. Kindly write a fuller review commentary that elaborates on specifically what you have checked. Regrds, -- Ohc ¡digame! 03:35, 18 February 2014 (UTC)

Well, I checked the source through Lexis-Nexis, which verified the hook, and I've checked the various sources to ensure there are no copyvios. I've been following the progress of the article all along, so I know it's quality. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 05:58, 18 February 2014 (UTC)
