By the way, I reverted your edit to your own scale on the Tropical cyclone scales page. The pages are about the article, not for original research. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 20:25, 1 February 2014 (UTC)
Your scale
[edit]While i appreciate you making up your own scale and allowing Wikipedia to use it, we are not allowed to accept such scales since we are trying to make a professional encyclopedia. Other reasons include because they are not official, used by any agency, not scientific and generally do not make sense. You are welcome to stay and write articles on hurricanes or other things with myself and others helping you or you can go to the hurricane wiki and generally play around with rating hurricanes etc. Hope this helps.Jason Rees (talk) 20:23, 2 February 2014 (UTC)
- You should also be aware if you are sticking around that changing windspeeds, like you did in this edit is not allowed unless you have a source like NOAA. Also comments like "Fuck this season" are really not helpful and shouldnt be put on talk pages. Hope this helps.Jason Rees (talk) 00:17, 3 February 2014 (UTC)
Mac and hurricanes, you are invited to the Teahouse

Your Use of Multiple Wikipedia Accounts
[edit]Hi. An editor has opened an investigation into sockpuppetry by you. Sockpuppetry is the use of more than one Wikipedia account in a manner that contravenes community policy. The investigation is being held at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Hurricane Luis, where the editor who opened the investigation has presented their evidence. Please make sure you make yourself familiar with the guide to responding to investigations, and then feel free to offer your own evidence or to submit comments that you wish to be considered by the Wikipedia administrator who decides the result of the investigation. If you have been using multiple accounts (in a manner contrary to Wikipedia policy), please go to the investigation page and verify that now. Leniency is usually shown to those who promise not to do so again, or who did so unwittingly, but the abuse of multiple accounts is taken very seriously by the Wikipedia community.
