  • "The typhoon briefly tracked south before veering to the northwest while intensifying." - You stated here and in the MH that the typhoon briefly tracked southward. I'm not seeing anywhere in the track where it made a southward turn (well, maybe by a hair). I'm thinking either the track is wrong, the report is wrong, you accidentally added the wrong direction, or one of us needs to see an eye doctor :P
  • "Robyn attained its peak intensity of 160 km/h (100 mph), with a barometric pressure of 945 mbar (27.9 inHg)." - The infobox says 940 though
  • List South Korea and Russian Far East in the areas affected on the infobox
  • "At 06:00 UTC on July 30, the Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC)" - Wikilink Coordinated Universal Time
  • Why do some monetary values have Yen symbols (¥) but others don't?
    • They all should have the symbol. As for why it never happened, I didn't start using the yen symbol in articles till after I wrote this 11.5 months ago. YE Pacific Hurricane
  • "Nationwide, damage was estimated at ¥10.3 billion or US$92.3 million.[17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27]" - Do you really need 11 references there? Usually when there's more than about five or six references cited together, they are bundled like this
  • "a 38-year-old in Karatsu was servery wounded." ---> "a 38-year-old in Karatsu was severely wounded."
  • "Five people, including three seniors and one child," - Seniors? Are we talking about high school seniors, college seniors, or senior citizens?
  • That's a rather large three paragraph for Japan. I'd suggest maybe that from this sentence onward would be a fourth paragraph: "Roughly 30,000 people lost power due to downed trees in the city of Ōita."
  • "dropped heavy rainfall to the northernmost island" ---> "dropped heavy rainfall on the northernmost island of Hokkaido."
  • I noticed that you don't have rainfall totals for South Korea. I found two here
  • "Japan Meteorological Agency (October 10, 1992). RSMC Best Track Data – 1990–1999" - The publication date can't possibly be 1992 and definitely no earlier than November 1999
    • Okay, this requires some explanation. CB was the first person to ever really start doing pre-2000 WPAC systems with a serious intention. After he did some storms in 1989, I cut and pasted his referencing style when I first started doing 80s articles (and included a link to the 80-89 JMA text file). When I started doing 90s WPAC typhoons a little under two years ago, I cut and pasted the same ref format I used in the 80s without any changes. I'll look into this.

  • "typhoon causes deaths, damage in south korea". Xinhua General News Service. August 11, 1990." - Again, you've got the wrong year here. I'm assuming you meant to say 1993. Also, why all lowercase letters in the title?

That should be it for this review--12george1 (talk) 04:43, 14 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the review. YE Pacific Hurricane 23:14, 14 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
