Over the next few days i plan to review this article for GAN.Jason Rees (talk) 01:29, 18 November 2011 (UTC)

• It was the least active hurricane season in nine years due to a strong El Niño that lasted from 1991 to 1994 - That implies that the El Nino lasted from 91-94 without a break which is wrong.

I removed that part about 1991-1994, since apparently it isn't true or falsely implying something.--12george1 (talk) 18:58, 18 November 2011 (UTC)

• The lead would make more sense if the info about Frances was moved down to make a paragraph with the Andrew stuff.

Done--12george1 (talk) 18:58, 18 November 2011 (UTC)

• Were there any other seasonal predictions by any other agency such as the Weather Research Center.

I did find some stuff from the Weather Research Center, but there was no specific numbers (i.e. number of tropical storms, hurricanes, major hurricanes).--12george1 (talk) 18:58, 18 November 2011 (UTC)

If you can refind that stuff on the WRC, id suggest that you add it with this, i dont know how accurate it is though.

Ok, now it is fixed.--12george1 (talk) 23:42, 19 November 2011 (UTC)

• Now that the stuff on systems of the year has been moved down i think that the stuff about the depressions should be moved down to the end of Frances.

• No, I think they should be kept where they are at, mainly because most of the other seasons are formatted like this.--12george1 (talk) 03:03, 19 November 2011 (UTC)

• I also think that the two paragraphs of the lead should be combined since they arent that big.

• Fixed--12george1 (talk) 03:03, 19 November 2011 (UTC)

• It was a below average season in which 10 tropical depressions formed. Seven of the depressions attained tropical storm status, and four of these attained hurricane status. In addition, one tropical cyclone eventually attained major hurricane status,[5] which is below the 1950-2005 average of two per season - 1 check this sentence against the infobox and two maybe higher the average to the 2010 one though i would prefer it if you found an average at the time.

• Fixed your first issue, but I am not sure what actually you are asking me to do on the second part.--12george1 (talk) 03:03, 19 November 2011 (UTC)

• Im asking you to either use the average to 2010 or find a better one that is say 1962-1991.

• Why did activity suddenly halt in the mid of october?
• Was Frances extratropical or dissipated - these are two separate things.

• Fixed--12george1 (talk) 03:03, 19 November 2011 (UTC)

• Delink the timeline as it is most probably a case of overlinking.

• The infobox is the only link to the timeline, unless I am not looking hard enough.--12george1 (talk) 03:03, 19 November 2011 (UTC)

• I meant the timeline image.Jason Rees (talk) 03:14, 19 November 2011 (UTC)

• Move the timeline up to the start of the seasonal summ section.

• It looks kinda odd there, but ok--12george1 (talk) 03:03, 19 November 2011 (UTC)

• Im surprised that you dont mention the fact that SS1 was rather close to being classified as Tropical.

• Done--12george1 (talk) 02:48, 22 November 2011 (UTC)

• There would be Tropical Storm Ana in April of the 2003 season - shorten to April 2003 and link it.

• Fixed--12george1 (talk) 03:03, 19 November 2011 (UTC)

• I would like to see the season effects graph not only referenced but be consistant with how it says None.Jason Rees (talk) 20:36, 21 November 2011 (UTC)

• Better?--12george1 (talk) 02:14, 22 November 2011 (UTC)

• This date was well before the official start of the season - Take out as it is not relevant and is something for the seasonal summary section not SS1 IMO.Jason Rees (talk) 20:36, 21 November 2011 (UTC)

• This was already mentioned in the season summary, so I simply removed that sentence.--12george1 (talk) 02:14, 22 November 2011 (UTC)

• Shortly thereafter, the National Hurricane Center discontinued advisories on the depression, citing that it had degenerated into a low-level cloud swirl. Citing to Reported.Jason Rees (talk) 20:36, 21 November 2011 (UTC)

• Switched to "reporting", since it is more grammatically correct than "reported".--12george1 (talk) 02:14, 22 November 2011 (UTC)

• I have taken the liberty of cleaning up your coding of the seasonal forecasst section and have a couple of questions
  • Surely Bill Gray issued a June forecast
  • Whats the + symbol for
  • Why are you using the current average and why not the average from 1960-1990.
• Bearing in mind that people are not stupid and there is already a better key in the article, why have Template:SSHS Small in the article?.

• Aren't we suppose to assume stupidity?--12george1 (talk) 02:14, 22 November 2011 (UTC)

I think your seasonal activity section should be a bit fuller of bits about the season. eg: Use this http://journals.ametsoc.org/doi/pdf/10.1175/1520-0493%281994%29122%3C0539%3AATSO%3E2.0.CO%3B2 and http://journals.ametsoc.org/doi/pdf/10.1175/1520-0493%281994%29122%3C0517%3AAHSO%3E2.0.CO%3B2 this a bit more
