Timeline of the 2010 Pacific hurricane season edit

Featured list candidates/Timeline of the 2010 Pacific hurricane season/archive1

Nominator(s): Cyclonebiskit (talk) 12:24, 8 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The 2010 Pacific hurricane season featured the fewest number of named storms on record in the eastern portion of the basin. Despite its inactivity, two storms were particularly devastating in Central America and Mexico: Tropical Storm Agatha and Tropical Depression Eleven-E. This list covers the status changes (such as formation, dissipation, category upgrade/downgrade, etc.) of the season's 13 tropical cyclones based on the National Hurricane Center and Central Pacific Hurricane Center's post-storm reports. The format is based on previous featured hurricane timelines and this particular article should match FLC standards. Cyclonebiskit (talk) 12:24, 8 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This timeline includes information that was not operationally released, meaning that data from post-storm reviews by the National Hurricane Center, such as a storm that was not operationally warned upon, has been included. - did this happen? Afiak, no new storms were added. Otherwise, I love the format, and with clarification, I'm happy to support. Definitely one of the better hurricane season timelines on Wikipedia.

Changed the generic line to mention the subtropical phase of Omeka, which wasn't warned on operationally. Cyclonebiskit (talk) 21:56, 22 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Support then! Hurricanehink mobile (talk) 23:45, 22 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comments from Dudley

Support. A first rate list. One minor comment.
"These dates typically limit the period of each year when most tropical cyclones form in the eastern Pacific basin." "limit" does not sound right in this context. Should it be "cover"?

Comments from West Virginian

Cyclonebiskit, this list's lede meets the criteria outlined at Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Lead section and the list meets the criteria outlined at Wikipedia:Featured list criteria. The first image is released into the public domain, the second image is licensed CC BY 2.0, and the third through eighth images are released into the public domain, so all are acceptable for use here. I only have one suggestion, and that is all eight images will require "alt" captions explaining the contents of the images, in addition to the standard caption. (See: Timeline of the 2010 Atlantic hurricane season). I have no other comments, questions, or suggestions, and find that this article is in keeping with other featured lists of hurricane season timelines. -- West Virginian (talk) 03:15, 11 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Support: Cyclonebiskit, I hereby support this article for FL status now that Maile66 addressed my lone concern. Overall, a great list! -- West Virginian (talk) 13:27, 27 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Support - West Virginian, I added the alt text to the images, which now number 10, to help move this along. I'm adding my support, as I feel this is a well-done list. Would appreciate if anyone has time and can comment on my nomination here. — Maile (talk) 13:23, 27 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Thank you very much for covering that! I honestly forgot this was still up at FLC, and my apologies to West Virginian for missing your comments. Thank you both for the supports :) Fair enough for me to return the favor, Maile. I'll take a look at your nomination shortly. Cyclonebiskit (talk) 13:33, 27 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Resolved comments from The Rambling Man (talk) 07:12, 4 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose

Chart needs en-dashes for speed ranges per MOS.
What happened to 118km/h?
En-dash needed for Saffir–Simpson in the chart as well.
And it's now called "Saffir–Simpson hurricane wind scale".
Image captions, things like "(left)" should be "(left)".
There seems no real reason to include either of those external links, neither are directly related to this article.

@The Rambling Man: – Cleaned up the errors mentioned above. Any other outstanding concerns? Cyclonebiskit (talk) 03:39, 4 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Closing this nomination as Passed. Remember to review other nominations so that the FLC process will run faster next time you nominate, and consider submitting this list to Wikipedia:Today's featured list/submissions! --Pres N 17:08, 5 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
