Hey, sorry about the mistakes

[edit]

I saw the messages you sent me. I am sorry about my mistakes. I sometimes can make mistakes like these without me realizing. How can I try and edit more better while editing a lot more at the same time? StormHunterBryante5467 (talk) 02:56, 15 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! (FA Mentor)

[edit]

Hello there, @Hurricanehink, I don't necessarily know if you still do FA mentoring, but I do want some guidance regarding an song article I have worked on. I listed the song "I Feel It Coming" by the Weeknd for peer review, and I was wondering if you'd like to give some general thoughts? I totally understand if you don't want to, thank you! 𝘮𝘪𝘤𝘩𝘢𝘦𝘭'𝘴 𝘥𝘦𝘢𝘳 𝘮𝘦𝘭𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘩𝘰𝘭𝘺, 20:03, 18 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Article ideas

[edit]

Hey @Hurricanehink, hope all is well.

A while back you mentioned that you'd give me some ideas on storm-related articles to start and/or expand. I've been mainly focusing on expanding Wikipedia pages for footballers, but I'd like to get back into storms, so I was wondering if you had any articles I could expand or create.

Larry to GA?

[edit]

I had a look at Hurricane Larry today, which I substantially expanded with your help a few years ago, and thought it might be pretty close to becoming a GA. Thought you might want to take a look and give some suggestions for a few final improvements. Also, Tropical cyclones in 2002 is almost finished on its long path to becoming an FL. The hope is that after it's finished, that it provides a good model for the 30-odd other tropical cyclones by year articles on reaching the same goal. 🐔 Chicdat  Bawk to me! 13:32, 22 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I worked on the draft

[edit]

Hey Hurricanehink, remember the chat on the tropical cyclones in 1990 draft? I added just the summary on the North Atlantic portion, can you check to see if it is good? I think I could have made mistakes, but if one is found, kindly revert it. Have a good night! I will work on it more tomorrow. StormHunterBryante5467 (talk) 01:37, 25 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

WikiCup 2025 March newsletter

[edit]

The first round of the 2025 WikiCup ended on 26 February. As a reminder, we are no longer disqualifying the lowest-scoring contestants; everyone who competed in round 1 will advance to round 2 unless they have withdrawn or been banned from Wikipedia. Instead, the contestants with the highest round-point totals now receive tournament points at the end of each round. Unlike the round points in the main WikiCup table, which are reset at the end of each round, tournament points are carried over between rounds and can only be earned if a competitor is among the top 16 round-point scorers. This table shows all competitors who have received tournament points so far.

Round 1 was very competitive compared with previous years; two contestants scored more than 1,000 round points, and the top 16 contestants all scored more than 500 round points. The following competitors scored more than 800 round points:

The full scores for round 1 can be seen here. During this round, contestants have claimed 18 featured articles, 26 featured lists, 1 featured-topic article, 197 good articles, 38 good-topic articles and more than 100 Did You Know articles. In addition, competitors have worked on 23 In the News articles, and they have conducted nearly 550 reviews.

Remember that any content promoted after 26 February but before the start of Round 2 can be claimed in Round 2, which begins on 1 March. Invitations for collaborative writing efforts or any other discussion of potentially interesting work is always welcome on the WikiCup talk page. Remember, if two or more WikiCup competitors have done significant work on an article, all can claim points. If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article candidates, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed. If you want to help out with the WikiCup, feel free to review one of the nominations listed on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed. Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages. Good luck!

There is a new ongoing request for comment discussion, with the goal to solve the various disputes on weather-related articles (such as tornadoes or hurricanees) on how to best utilize damage estimates in the infobox. Your comments are highly-requested, as the result of this discussion will affect all weather-related articles. This notice is being sent to all editors who have recently edited weather event articles.

TFA again

[edit]
story · music · places

Thank you today for Hurricane Cindy (2005), about "Hurricane Cindy, the first of several hurricanes to hit the United States during the 2005 Atlantic hurricane season. Cindy caused a fair amount of damage, including to the Atlanta Motor Speedway from a tornado, as well as the largest power outage for Entergy, the energy company responsible for Louisiana/Mississippi region. Of course, this whole area would be devastated by Hurricane Katrina just a month and a half later. As a weird bit of foreshadowing, there were five parishes in Louisiana that were declared disaster areas on August 23... the same day that Hurricane Katrina formed. Cindy wasn't all that bad compared to the later storms, but it was still significant enough to warrant having an article."! -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:49, 29 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

WikiCup 2025 May newsletter

[edit]

The second round of the 2025 WikiCup ended on 28 April at 23:59 UTC. To reiterate what we said in the previous newsletter, we are no longer disqualifying contestants based on how many points (now known as round points) they received. Instead, the contestants with the highest round-point totals now receive tournament points at the end of each round. These tournament points are carried over between rounds, and can only be earned if a competitor is among the top 16 round-point scorers at the end of each round. This table shows all competitors who have received tournament points so far. Everyone who competed in round 2 will advance to round 3 unless they have withdrawn or been banned.

Round 2 was quite competitive. Four contestants scored more than 1,000 round points, and eight scored more than 500 points (including one who has withdrawn). The following competitors scored at least 800 points:

In addition, we would like to recognize Generalissima (submissions) for her efforts; she scored 801 round points but withdrew before the end of the round.

The full scores for round 2 can be seen here. During this round, contestants have claimed 13 featured articles, 20 featured lists, 4 featured-topic articles, 138 good articles, 7 good-topic articles, and more than 100 Did You Know articles. In addition, competitors have worked on 19 In the News articles, and they have conducted nearly 300 reviews.

Remember that any content promoted after 28 April but before the start of Round 3 can be claimed in Round 3. Invitations for collaborative writing efforts or any other discussion of potentially interesting work is always welcome on the WikiCup talk page. Remember, if two or more WikiCup competitors have done significant work on an article, all can claim points. If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article candidates, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed.

FA review of Value theory

[edit]

Hello Hurricanehink and thanks for your FA review of the article Ethics a while back. I was wondering whether you might also be interested in reviewing the article Value theory since the nomination hasn't attracted much attention so far, see Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Value theory/archive1. Thanks for taking a look and please feel under no obligation if now is not a good time. Phlsph7 (talk) 09:41, 20 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
