• "Tropical Storm Kelly was a weak but destructive tropical storm that struck the Philippines in June 1981." - Wikilink "tropical storm" to tropical cyclone and "struck" to Landfall (meteorology)
  • A strike technically is not a landfall. It is when a portion of the TS force winds occur over land. YE ^{Pacific Hurricane} 21:17, 1 May 2014 (UTC)
    • Just wikilink it as early as possible then.--12george1 (talk) 21:22, 1 May 2014 (UTC)
• "and made landfall on northern Vietnam on July 4 as a tropical storm." --> "and made landfall in northern Vietnam on July 4 as a tropical storm."
  •  Done. YE ^{Pacific Hurricane} 21:17, 1 May 2014 (UTC)
• "near a volcano sustained flooding." - You should name the volcano and be more specific about where it is, because there are many volcanoes in Philippines
  • {[Done}}. YE ^{Pacific Hurricane} 21:17, 1 May 2014 (UTC)
• "At least 800 homes were destroyed while 3,845 ha (9,500 acres) of rice field were destroyed." - Don't use "destroyed" twice in the same sentence. I suggest this: "At least 800 homes were destroyed while 3,845 ha (9,500 acres) of rice fields were ruined. "
  •  Done. YE ^{Pacific Hurricane}
• "However, 16 hours later, the TCFA was cancelled." - 16 hours after what? You haven't mentioned a date in four sentences.
  • Added. YE ^{Pacific Hurricane} 21:17, 1 May 2014 (UTC)
• " Late on July 4, Kelly made landfall as a tropical storm[7] 185 km (115 mi) south of Hanoi in Vietnam" - What was Kelly's wind speed at landfall?
  • Noted. YE ^{Pacific Hurricane} 21:17, 1 May 2014 (UTC)
• "Nine towns in an 4,300 mi (6,920 km) area were flooded." - Kilometers need to go before miles
  • Fixed. YE ^{Pacific Hurricane} 21:17, 1 May 2014 (UTC)
• Reference #15 is a deadlink
  • Blame the Miami Heat :P Fixed btw. YE ^{Pacific Hurricane} 21:17, 1 May 2014 (UTC)
