Project notes

I just created this wikiproject, after several months of contemplating doing so. I hope everyone working on hurricane articles will get involved. I went ahead and wrote a bunch of guidelines, basically based on current practices...naturally since this is something I just wrote it doesn't necessarily represent community consensus and needs to be discussed. That discussion should probably go here for now...although eventually we may make these pages a little more structured. For a general TODO list, see the "tasks" item on the project page.

List of South America hurricanes nominated for featured list removal

I have nominated List of South America hurricanes for featured list removal. Please join the discussion on whether this article meets the featured list criteria. Articles are typically reviewed for two weeks; editors may declare to "Keep" or "Delist" the article's featured status. The instructions for the review process are here.

Article on wind pressure relationships

Is there an article on methods of calculations of wind pressure relationships? I have seen some stuff about it (particularly Knaff-Zehr-Courtney on Atlantic TCRs) mentioned so it sounds encylopedic. I might also need some help with writing/reviewing as this is slightly outside my usual area of editing. ✶Qux yz ✶ 17:56, 15 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

PAGASA bulletins

I'm suggesting adding PAGASA bulletins in the talk pages of typhoons. If you want to participate in the discussion, you can go here. Thanks, 🍗TheNuggeteer🍗 (My "blotter") 23:52, 17 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Costliest season tables

I forget whether it's been discussed or not on the project page but lately several editors have been adding unsourced records to articles stating which hurricane seasons (and individual tropical cyclones) were the xth-costliest. While the Atlantic basin usually generates enough public interest that we'll get a reliable source stating which tropical cyclone seasons are the most destructive, the other basins usually aren't afforded this type of attention and I think part of the confusion is coming from having tables like the List of Costliest Pacific Hurricane Seasons in the 2024 Pacific hurricane season page. I'm wondering if these tables violate WP:SYNTH since simply adding up the total damages of the storms and adding them to the page is covered by WP:CALC but then using the tables to say which seasons were the costliest isn't.
