The tropical cyclone Wikiproject had a discussion link, and we came to the agreement that two articles in the topic (Fico and Fefa) should not be considered retired Pacific hurricane names. We got confirmation from the National Hurricane Center that they were likely not retired. I'm not sure how to remove items from a topic, but I hope I did this right. If there is a problem, then I can omit the two removals for this topic addition.

Also, this spring, the World Meteorological Organization retired Tropical Storm Alma, which the project quickly got to GA status. So, this is where the topic lies today. ♬♩ Hurricanehink (talk) 17:48, 4 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Just a quick note, the image has been updated. Hopefully there are no more concerns. ♬♩ Hurricanehink (talk) 01:37, 8 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - I note that both of the removed articles still say that they're names are retired and have the retired hurricanes template at the bottom. It should be consistent. --PresN 18:11, 4 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    • Actually, per the project agreement, I removed the template and info saying those two were retired. The data we have available do not confirm its retirement, rather that it was only removed, and the email we got from the NHC leans toward the names being removed, not retired. ♬♩ Hurricanehink (talk) 18:15, 4 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support, no-brainer. –Juliancolton | Talk 18:15, 4 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support - per Juliancolton! rst20xx (talk) 20:13, 4 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Object. File:Retired Pacific hurricane tracks.png, which is included at this topics section at Featured Topics, as well as in List of retired Pacific hurricane names, still includes Fefa and Fico's tracks. In addition, it does not include Alma's. Miss Madeline | Talk to Madeline 23:50, 4 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    • Ah, I was waiting for someone to bring that up. I contacted the author earlier today, asking he remove Fefa and Fico, and add Alma. It is forthcoming, but I hope the image is not a major issue for this nomination. ♬♩ Hurricanehink (talk) 23:58, 4 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
      • If this was an issue you were already aware of, then why didn't you point it out from the start? rst20xx (talk) 15:28, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
        • TBH, I didn't think it would be an issue. It's an image that is in the process of being changed. The accompanying image isn't an FT requirement, so it shouldn't be much of a concern. ♬♩ Hurricanehink (talk) 15:36, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
          • I guess I can fix that one later since it would be a rather easy one. (Apparently no one else uses Macs...) Potapych (talk) 17:37, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
          • Fixed; uploaded over the previous version. Titoxd(?!? - cool stuff) 04:39, 7 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
            • Support now that my objection has been resolved. I'm glad that Fefa and Fico will be out, since that is what I wanted from the start:) Miss Madeline | Talk to Madeline 01:15, 8 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

    • A strong objection for something that is being taken care of? The above vote can't really be addressed, so I don't think it should be counted. ♬♩ Hurricanehink (talk) 14:31, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support now. Leave Message ,Yellow Evan home , Sandbox
  • Comment You should come up with another name for that section Lists of retired names. There are more than that, but that section just covers the ones retired due to damages. You should also note that in the template. Potapych (talk) 14:51, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    • I clarified it to "Lists of retired names due to impact", as impact is more generic than damage. Does that work? ♬♩ Hurricanehink (talk) 15:36, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. The nomination process can take a week or two, and by then the picture should be up (right?), and no one should have any further objections. —Goodtimber (walk/talk) 18:05, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Picture will be up in a few days, and the topic meets criteria. Darren23 (talk) 20:25, 6 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support but defer updating the topic until the picture is updated. Nergaal (talk) 04:41, 7 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Close with consensus to promote - now that the image is updated, everyone is happy - rst20xx (talk) 10:32, 17 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
