1957 Atlantic hurricane season

3 articles

Contributor(s): CrazyC83 and TheAustinMan

The 1957 Atlantic hurricane season includes a set of three good articles that constitute the particular season named in the topic. This GTC is the latest in WP:WPTC's project of making all Atlantic hurricane seasons from the 1950s good topics. With the exception of Hurricane Audrey, the articles passed good article nominations in the past month, and they should be up-to-date with today's good article criterion. My first good article criteria submission, this is a WikiCup submission as well. TheAustinMan^{(Talk·Works)} 03:03, 20 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment according to the tool, Audrey has a couple of dead or dubious links. Otherwise, looks like a suitable candidate for a good topic. Although grey italic text is never a good accessible way to convey a particular property of a storm. The Rambling Man (talk) 18:22, 25 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I fixed the dead links found in the aforementioned link (didn't do much about the connection-incident type references, there is not much that you can do about that). As for the grey italic text, they do say '(unused)' next to them, denoting that those names were not used during the season. I think the grey italics is more of an aesthetics thing, and does not give an 'advantage' to unimpaired readers over impaired readers. TheAustinMan^{(Talk·Works)} 22:37, 27 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Support I'm not convinced Audrey is still worthy of its GA status. The Texas and Louisiana sections have some unsourced sections (and don't seem all that comprehensive), and there is no aftermath, not to mention Records is unsourced. Sorry TAM, but I warned you a few weeks ago to improve Audrey before GTCing this. Fwiw, the MH and Canada sections look fine. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 14:58, 2 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Update. The article is in better condition now, and I think it's worthy of its GA status. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 20:28, 21 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
