Categories

Please do more careful when copy-pasting categories. You left some categories from Maureen Pugh on Nicola Willis' page that were not correct.--Pokelova (talk) 01:42, 7 March 2018 (UTC)

@Pokelova: Sorry. I just copied the categories placed in the Maureen Pugh page and pasted it there to Nicola Willis' page. But thanks for letting me know. :) -- Typhoon2013 01:49, 7 March 2018 (UTC)

Linda

Please note that 10F (Linda) was recorded on 160E during the 13th by the JTWC, as Linda straddled the border between the two areas. As a result, I have put Linda in as a tropical depression and being active in SPAC on the 13th.Jason Rees (talk) 12:17, 18 March 2018 (UTC)

After I left this message, I noticed that Linda was called 10F on exactly 160E, which means it was in both basins at the same time. As a result, I have adjusted Linda's dates in Aus to beginning on the 11th and do not see the need to include <small>([[2017–18 South Pacific cyclone season#Tropical Depression 10F (Linda)|Entered basin]])</small> in the infobox. I am also thinking about dropping 10F to OS in the SPAC. If you have any thoughts or comments on this then you know where i am :) Jason Rees (talk) 19:10, 18 March 2018 (UTC)
@Jason Rees: No problem for Linda. I guess it should be time to find the information and sources for the other systems in the SPac and to be added in an OS section, especially before the season ending in a few months. -- Typhoon2013 09:53, 19 March 2018 (UTC)

Sources for 22U and 23U

I've added the last 3 Brisbane TWOs, although it's not clear whether the depression on 19th March is regarded as the same system as on 17th.--Keith Edkins ( Talk ) 17:08, 19 March 2018 (UTC)

Crystal Ball

Do you have a crystal ball or something? How do you know that 22U will be named Nora. Especially since it is above 10S at the moment and possibly in Jakarta’s air.Jason Rees (talk) 11:12, 22 March 2018 (UTC) Jason Rees (talk) 11:12, 22 March 2018 (UTC)

ESEAP Conference 2018

Hello Typhoon2013,

I’m Irvin from PhilWiki Community, a member of the Communication Committee of the ESEAP Conference. ESEAP Conference 2018 is a regional conference for Wikimedia communities throughout the ESEAP region: ESEAP stands for East, Southeast Asia, and Pacific. Taking place in Bali, Indonesia on 5–6 May 2018, this is the first regional conference for these Wikimedia communities.

East and Southeast Asia and the Pacific are the most under-represented regions within the Wikimedia community. There is a significant number of Wikimedia contributors in our regions, yet we continue to struggle in establishing a well-managed community. This conference will bring participants from various ESEAP communities together in order to better understand the issues and to look for solutions. It also aims to connect people of the Wikimedia movement within ESEAP regions, to share ideas, and to build regional collaborations that are impossible to achieve through online communication.

We’ve got a lot of participation from several countries, but we’re lacking from your country. As we need more participants from your country, we believe that your contribution and participation would be a valuable asset to the success of this event. If you would like to participate in the conference, please do fill the form as soon as possible (by April 5, 2018) and we’ll inform you if you get selected for the conference.

Thank you and we hope to see you soon. --Filipinayzd 01:54, 31 March 2018 (UTC)

WikiCup 2018 May newsletter

The second round of the 2018 WikiCup has now finished. Most contestants who advanced to the next round scored upwards of 100 points, but two with just 10 points managed to scrape through into round 3. Our top scorers in the last round were:

  • Scotland Cas Liber, our winner in 2016, with three featured articles
  • Republic of Texas Iazyges, with nine good articles and lots of bonus points
  • India Yashthepunisher, a first time contestant, with two featured lists
  • Cascadia (independence movement) SounderBruce, a finalist last year, with seventeen good topic articles
  • United States Usernameunique, a first time contestant, with fourteen DYKs
  • San Francisco Muboshgu, a seasoned competitor, with three ITNs and
  • South Carolina Courcelles, another first time contestant, with twenty-seven GARs

So far contestants have achieved twelve featured articles between them and a splendid 124 good articles. Commendably, 326 GARs have been completed during the course of the 2018 WikiCup, so the backlog of articles awaiting GA review has been reduced as a result of contestants' activities. As we enter the third round, remember that any content promoted after the end of round 2 but before the start of round 3 can be claimed in round 3. Remember too that you must claim your points within 14 days of "earning" them. When doing GARs, please make sure that you check that all the GA criteria are fully met; most of the GARs are fine, but a few have been a bit skimpy.

If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article nominations, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed (remember to remove your listing when no longer required). Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck! If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove your name from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.

WikiCup 2018 July newsletter

The third round of the 2018 WikiCup has now come to an end. The 16 users who made it to the fourth round had at least 227 points. Our top scorers in round 3 were:

  • South Carolina Courcelles, a first time contestant, with 1756 points, a tally built largely on 27 GAs related to the Olympics
  • Scotland Cas Liber, our winner in 2016, with two featured articles and three GAs on natural history and astronomy topics
  • Cascadia (independence movement) SounderBruce, a finalist last year, with a variety of submissions related to transport in the state of Washington

Contestants managed 7 featured articles, 4 featured lists, 120 good articles, 1 good topic, 124 DYK entries, 15 ITN entries, and 132 good article reviews. Over the course of the competition, contestants have completed 458 GA reviews, in comparison to 244 good articles submitted for review and promoted. As we enter the fourth round, remember that any content promoted after the end of round 3 but before the start of round 4 can be claimed in round 4. Please also remember that you must claim your points within 14 days of "earning" them. When doing GARs, please make sure that you check that all the GA criteria are fully met. Please also remember that all submissions must meet core Wikipedia policies, regardless of the review process; several submissions, particularly in abstruse or technical areas, have needed additional work to make them completely verifiable.

If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article nominations, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed (remember to remove your listing when no longer required). Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!

Be careful about information you provided

JMA did not analyse Prapiroon 960 hPa until 1800Z on July 2. Thus, your point about 0450Z is much closer to 1800Z than 0000Z is not really valid. 🐱💬 13:10, 4 July 2018 (UTC)

@Meow: I don't see the point that my point closer to 18Z is "not valid". Everyone agrees to use a TC image at/closer to peak. This, my point should be valid? And I do know that everyone had contributed to a discussion for a "TC image policy" few weeks back and you opposed it so i don't know here. Typhoon2013 (talk) 19:20, 4 July 2018 (UTC)
@Meow: The question more is what constitutes peak intensity? Lowest Winds and Lowest Pressure or just lowest winds.Jason Rees (talk) 22:38, 4 July 2018 (UTC)
@Typhoon2013:@Jason Rees: JMA maintained the same intensity of 0000Z (965 hPa; 65 knots) at 0600Z. Could you say that Prapiroon was stronger at 0450Z because JMA estimated a slightly lower pressure (960 hPa; still at 65 knots) at 1800Z and 0450Z is closer to 1800Z? That is just a logical problem. Being closer to the peak intensity does not equal to being stronger... 🐱💬 02:20, 5 July 2018 (UTC)
I don't particularly care which image is used but had thought that Typhoon2013's image was 24 hours later than yours for some reason @Meow:.Jason Rees (talk) 12:50, 5 July 2018 (UTC)
Just 4 hours and 50 minutes later... 🐱💬 13:48, 5 July 2018 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Typhoon Son-Tinh

Hello Typhoon2013,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Typhoon Son-Tinh for deletion in response to your request.

If you didn't intend to make such a request and don't want the article to be deleted, you can edit the page and remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions.

Son-Tinh

You made the same mistake that I warned you about last year with Son-Tinh. Right now, there is only one "Typhoon Son-Tinh" so there's no need to add the year for the 2012 one. The current Son-Tinh is not a typhoon yet :P YE Pacific Hurricane 03:13, 17 July 2018 (UTC)

Next time do not do a cut and paste move in order to preserve page history. Instead, please show some patience and ask an administrator to do it. @Hurricanehink and Cyclonebiskit: pinging WPTC admins to basically move Typhoon Son-Tinh (2018) to Typhoon Son-Tinh (and to 2012 once Son-Tinh 18 becomes a typhoon). YE Pacific Hurricane 04:31, 17 July 2018 (UTC)

Re: WPAC tables

Fair enough, thanks for fixing it. YE Pacific Hurricane 02:36, 18 July 2018 (UTC)

ITN recognition for Tropical Storm Son-Tinh (2018)

On 23 July 2018, In the news was updated with an item that involved the article Tropical Storm Son-Tinh (2018), which you updated. If you know of another recently created or updated article suitable for inclusion in ITN, please suggest it on the candidates page. --- Coffeeandcrumbs 23:18, 23 July 2018 (UTC)

Please wait for the RSMC advisory

You really should know better than this, which is hardly the first time I've reverted you for this reason: in the case of the NHC or CPHC, please wait for their advisory to come out before you update it, even if it's only an hour or two before, per WP:CRYSTAL. There's no hurry. I expect you to acknowledge this message instead of merely ignoring it because quite frankly, this is getting annoying as you have been asked about this in the past.--Jasper Deng (talk) 08:15, 7 August 2018 (UTC)

I do not like your WP:IDIDNTHEARTHAT attitude towards others' talk page messages. There is no way you will ever become an administrator unless you change that.--Jasper Deng (talk) 07:22, 8 August 2018 (UTC)

Hector

Im pretty sure its extratropical given the 1012 mbar pressure and no future forecasts, but if we have to wait for the official word, so be it. FigfiresSend me a message! 02:06, 15 August 2018 (UTC)

@Figfires: Just to note, just because its pressure is 1012 hPa doesn't mean it's extratropical. Moreover, we wait until the RSMC (in this case the JMA) says that it fully dissipated. -- Typhoon2013 07:22, 15 August 2018 (UTC)
And thats not happened yet since the JMA's WWJP25 still clasifies it as a tropical depression.Jason Rees (talk) 13:55, 15 August 2018 (UTC)

WikiCup 2018 September newsletter

The fourth round of the 2018 WikiCup has now come to an end. The eight users who made it to the final round had to score a minimum of 422 points to qualify, with the top score in the round being 4869 points. The leaders in round 4 were:

  • South Carolina Courcelles scored a magnificent 4869 points, with 92 good articles on Olympics-related themes. Courcelles' bonus points alone exceeded the total score of any of the other contestants!
  • Hel, Poland Kees08 was second with 1155 points, including a high-scoring featured article for Neil Armstrong, two good topics and some Olympics-related good articles.
  • Scotland Cas Liber, with 1066 points, was in third place this round, with two featured articles and a good article, all on natural history topics.
  • Other contestants who qualified for the final round were Marshall Islands Nova Crystallis, Republic of Texas Iazyges, Cascadia (independence movement) SounderBruce, Wales Kosack and United States Ceranthor.

During round four, 6 featured articles and 164 good articles were promoted by WikiCup contestants, 13 articles were included in good topics and 143 good article reviews were performed. There were also 10 "in the news" contributions on the main page and 53 "did you knows". Congratulations to all who participated! It was a generally high-scoring and productive round and I think we can expect a highly competitive finish to the competition.

Remember that any content promoted after the end of round 4 but before the start of round 5 can be claimed in round 5. Remember too that you must claim your points within 10 days of "earning" them. If you are concerned that your nomination will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. It would be helpful if this list could be cleared of any items no longer relevant. If you want to help out with the WikiCup, please do your bit to keep down the review backlogs! Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck, and let the best editor win!

You still do not respect RSMC Tokyo

You have declared dissipations many times when RSMC Tokyo still indicates active tropical depressions, for many years.-- 🐱💬 02:28, 7 September 2018 (UTC)

01F

FYI Nadi is now on full advisories on Tropical Depression 01F, that has developed on the border from the Australian region.Jason Rees (talk) 12:03, 26 September 2018 (UTC)

01U Liua

Can you tell me what document actually says that 01U is Liua, or the remnants thereof? It's not mentioned in IDQ10810 - Tropical Cyclone Outlook for Coral Sea so is there something I'm missing?--Keith Edkins ( Talk ) 20:58, 29 September 2018 (UTC)

@Keith Edkins: I was about to talk about this, but I will ping @Jason Rees: for this as he found a document stating that it is 01U. -- Typhoon2013 21:01, 29 September 2018 (UTC)
I haven't found a document but was in touch with the BoM, who confirmed that Liua was 01U a few days ago while it was still developing. Either way it was considered to be a tropical low while in Aus and Nadi initiated advisories at 160E so it has to be covered in Aus. To be frank with you both I'm not sure we shouldn't just label Liua as a Cat 1 TC in Aus since Nadi considered it to be one at 160.2E within their marine bulletins.Jason Rees (talk) 05:23, 30 September 2018 (UTC)
