Assessment[edit]

Needs major copyedit ~~for B-class~~, lots of spelling and usage errors (hand should be had, for instance). --Core desat 21:02, 30 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Get rid of the storm history from the lede. Get rid of the downgrade of wind speeds - not notable for the lede. Fix capitalisation issues with non-proper nouns (the watches and warnings). Fix citations, don't dump all at the end of a chunk of text. Your references do not match - no. 15, for example ("High pressures and moisture affected parts of Nevada, Utah and Arizona on July 27, as Emilia traveled up the Baja coast.[15]"), does NOT mention anything about "high pressures and moisture". Did you make it up, like how you made up the winds? – Chacor 06:29, 31 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

(edit conflict) Forget B-class, this should probably be merged. It has too much extraneous stuff in it to add length (including storm history in lede), and there is some useless information in the storm history. A lot of the information is totally made up, as well (citation #15 doesn't mention high pressure, for instance). --Core desat 06:30, 31 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! I will be reviewing this article for GA, and should have the full review up within a couple of hours. Dana boomer (talk) 20:09, 23 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

GA review (see here for criteria)

It is reasonably well written.
a (prose): b (MoS):
"Tropical Depression Six-E, about southwest of Acapulco." I think something is missing here...
It is factually accurate and verifiable.
a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
It is broad in its coverage.
a (major aspects): b (focused):
It follows the neutral point of view policy.
Fair representation without bias:
It is stable.
No edit wars etc.:
It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
Overall:
Pass/Fail:

I have one issue with an omission in the prose, so I am placing the article on hold until this concern can be dealt with. If you have any questions, please let me know here on the review page or on my talk page. Dana boomer (talk) 20:34, 23 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
