GA Review

[edit]
This review is transcluded from Talk:Cyclone Nancy/GA1. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.

Hi, I am reviewing this article for GA and have a few comments.

Comments
  • I have noticed that you now have (10-minute winds} etc., which I assume means something like the wind speed represents 10 minute samples, or alternatively, that the highest velocity lasted for 10 minutes. Perhaps you could explain the meaning in a footnote.
  • "Already impacted by Cyclone Meena in early February, Cyclone Nancy caused significant damage in the Cook Islands." Since the subject of this sentence is Cyclone Nancy, the meaning seems to be that Cyclone Nancy was already impacted by Cyclone Meena in early February. Is this what you mean?
  • "Cyclone Nancy originated broad area of low pressure within a monsoonal trough ..." Cyclone Nancy created the broad area of low pressure? This is not quite clear.
  • "and gave it the name Nancy while located about 485 km (300 mi) east-northeast" - while it was located? (to be clear)
    • Fixed
  • The JTWC - have you connected this with its full name previously?
  • "assessed Nancy to have been substantially weaker until 0000 UTC on February 14" - Would "assessed Nancy to be substantially weaker" work just as well?

These are small issues and I am sure you will have no problems fixing them. It is a fine article. Besides the storm dynamics, it is interesting to read how these storms affect far off lands such as the Cook Islands.

I still don't get what "(10-minute winds}" means! —Mattisse (Talk) 19:21, 17 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I put a note thing, it's just the length of time that the winds are measured and averaged out by the RSMC. Cyclonebiskit (talk) 19:29, 17 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
