[edit] Images of each storm

Another year, another set of images.

Added Pablo. Hurricanehink 00:46, 8 January 2006 (UTC)
Added Noel. And now I have to go. Ugh, if I could only finish now... Hurricanehink 15:38, 8 January 2006 (UTC)
Almost done. Hurricanehink 17:27, 10 January 2006 (UTC)
Done... finally. Hurricanehink 22:03, 14 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Todo

Content is fairly complete, but the article is lacking sources, wording is poor in some places, and the pictures haven't been added yet. Jdorje 08:30, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Tanya

The tanya section makes little sense. There's argument about whether the storm was a Category 1 or a Category 3 hurricane when it hit "the island". What island? The only land affected was the Azores islands, while Tanya was extratropical and had gale-force winds. — jdorje (talk) 06:32, 26 February 2006 (UTC)

The Category 3 statement has no sources. The unofficial reading part was a good idea, but I think it should be removed. Hurricanehink 13:44, 26 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Small infoboxes for page

1995 is the 3rd most active season in history with many notable storms.Dont you think this page deserves a set of small infoboxes?HurricaneCraze32 23:14, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

Do you mean actual infoboxes or small infoboxes used in 2004 and 2005? Hurricanehink 19:54, 16 April 2006 (UTC)
The Small ones and thats 2002-2005.HurricaneCraze32 20:41, 16 April 2006 (UTC)
OK. That's not a bad idea. Hurricanehink 01:16, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
It does well-when i get home from my dad's company i can start.If everyone agrees that is..I made Allison as an example.HurricaneCraze32 01:18, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
I thought we agreed we were going to use a table format for season statistics, rather than the infobox format? — jdorje (talk) 06:59, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
The results of the discussion was rather ambiguous, so it could go either way. I personally like the table format, so when you finish the templates, someone could tablize everything. Hurricanehink 00:55, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
Article links-i have an easier way-to save space-link the titles.HurricaneCraze32 23:59, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Unneeded table

I removed the following table from the article. I'm not sure of its purpose, so I'll just put it here for now. It's merely a table of the most active seasons, which can easily be said in words. Hurricanehink (talk) 02:07, 26 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Possible storm

According to Jack Beven's summaries there was a possible (sub)tropical storm with approximate peak winds of 45kts located to the S of Nova Scotia and E of Virginia - visible in this GIBBS image.--Nilfanion (talk) 21:46, 6 August 2006 (UTC)

Cool, but can we ut in it? →Cyclone1 23:56, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
Ut in it? Do you mean put IT in?Mitchazenia(8600+edits) 00:17, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
If you can source it, sure, you could put it in an other storms section. Hurricanehink (talk) 01:21, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
Give me some time and I'll get Jack Beven's info out...--Nilfanion (talk) 11:30, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] What's next?

Here's a good site regarding why the season was so active. Some of that should probably be added. Looking at the article as a whole, we might be able to do a redo of 2005. Yes, I am talking about having articles for all storms and having a season summary, not a list of storms. I don't know, maybe I'm foolish and shouldn't even think of it, but it could potentially work. Thoughts? Hurricanehink (talk) 22:00, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

Right now, this is the season I am most heavily targetting for new articles. I don't think the 2005 format should be used; it should be modelled after 2003 and 2004 as they were not a whole lot less active; 2005 was "off the charts" and deserves special treatment.
