Note: this represents where the article stands relative to the Good Article criteria. Criteria marked are unassessed

Lead

  • It feels weird to split the conventional season start and end dates into two sentences... feel like changing to "begins on May 15 in the East Pacific and June 1 in the Central Pacific, and ends on November 30 in both basins" still works despite the sentence being pretty long
  • Should the EPAC/CPAC boundary be defined somewhere?
  • No mention of Norbert's impacts in Mexico including a death and $140 mil damage?

Systems

  • Not sure if the timeline colors need to be changed given the discussion over at WT:WPWX is still ongoing - just noting it here but can probably hold off changing until the ongoing discussion ends
  • Boris:
    • "began to move erratically upper-level troughing progressed" - should be "as upper-level troughing progressed" or "as an upper-level trough progressed"?
    • "which had persisted as a tropical depression during that time" - MWR says it dissipated on June 6 so I'm assuming this should be cited to HURDAT instead. If it was a TD the whole time, the timeline graphic should be continuous too rather than broken up like it is presently.
  • Cristina: "impetus" sounds weird here - something like "the impetus for the formation of a TD" may work better?
  • Douglas: where's the 939 mb from? HURDAT doesn't have it.
  • Any impacts from Fausto and Genevieve in the Baja California Peninsula?
  • Iselle: "One person was also injured by lightning" but the San Angelo Standard-Times clipping says the person was "struck by flying glass" and not directly injured by the lightning strike
  • Julio: "An expansive upper-level outflow was disrupted" - change to outflow regime/setup? Otherwise "An" is redundant
  • Lowell: no mention of "widespread coverage" as stated in the lead, and description of the incident seems a little brief
  • Moke: "low temperatures aloft in radiosondes there" - should be radiosondes released/deployed there?
  • Norbert: "One person was killed, one person was reported missing, and more than $140 million in damage occurred there" when read with the preceding sentence kind of implies all of it occurred in the two fishing villages, though the figures are for the whole peninsula according to the Arizona Daily Star clipping

Seems mostly okay, not many issues overall - putting on hold for now. Will check copyright and images shortly. ~ KN2731 {talk · contribs} 14:14, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Satellite imagery all tagged with {{PD-USGov-DOC-NOAA}}, track maps with blue marble and NHC data are public domain as usual, no issues there. No captions to worry about. Earwig generates 0.0% similarity probably since PDFs are involved, so did a manual eye test with the main sources (primarily MWR) and nothing looks copied wholesale. I found an instance of intrawiki copying to Hurricane Norbert (1984), both articles' talk pages now have copied templates and are hence clear. ~ KN2731 {talk · contribs} 14:59, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Struck addressed issues. Ping @TropicalAnalystwx13: since it's been a month? ~ KN2731 {talk · contribs} 07:43, 30 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Status query

[edit]

KN2731, TropicalAnalystwx13, where does this review stand? As far as I can, TropicalAnalystwx13 has only made one set of edits to the article, on 8 June, to address any issues raised in the review, and it's been over a month and a half since the last ping by KN2731. Perhaps, as TropicalAnalystwx13 has been minimally active of late, the nomination should be closed. BlueMoonset (talk) 03:14, 18 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

BlueMoonset, thanks for the ping. If TAWX isn't able to respond to your ping in the next couple of days I'll go ahead and close the review due to inactivity; fwiw I don't mind taking a look at a future renomination. ~ KN2731 {talk · contribs} 06:30, 18 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
