Any Comments?.Jason Rees (talk) 17:12, 18 August 2013 (UTC)

"The season officially ran from November 1, 1990, to April 30, 1991" source? YE Pacific Hurricane 17:43, 18 August 2013 (UTC)
Could you somewhere in the article link tropical cyclone basins? YE Pacific Hurricane
"Both the JTWC and the NWOC designated tropical cyclones with a number and a P suffix with numbers assigned in order to tropical cyclones developing within the whole of the Southern Hemisphere. RSMC Nadi, TCWC Wellington and TCWC Brisbane all use the Australian Tropical Cyclone Intensity Scale and estimate windspeeds over a ten minute period, while the JTWC estimates sustained winds over a one minute period, which are subsequently compared to the Saffir–Simpson Hurricane Scale (SSHS)." I'd source this and possibly put this in a note. YE Pacific Hurricane 17:43, 18 August 2013 (UTC)
I dont think it needs sourcing or putting in a note since its vital information that kinda helps introduces the reader to the article.Jason Rees (talk) 01:45, 20 April 2014 (UTC)
It actually looks good now. YE Pacific Hurricane 22:15, 1 May 2014 (UTC)
"Later that day TCWC Nadi reported that Sina had peaked at 140 km/h (85 mph). The JTWC reported at this time that Sina was still intensifying before reporting that the windspeeds had peaked at 230 km/h (145 mph) early on November 27. During November 27 Sina moved around the southern edge of Viti Levu before passing over several of the smaller islands within the Fiji group of islands. The storm then continued to move towards the southeast whilst weakening passing close to the island of Tongatapu in Tonga and Niue. Sina eventually became extratropical on November 30 to the south of Niue before being absorbed by a trough of low pressure." source? YE Pacific Hurricane 17:43, 18 August 2013 (UTC)
This was sourced up during the recent improvements to this article.Jason Rees (talk) 01:58, 20 April 2014 (UTC)
"Sina eventually became extratropical on November 30 to the south of Niue before being absorbed by a trough of low pressure." "extratropical should link to extratropical cyclone while trough of low pressure should be "trough. YE Pacific Hurricane 17:43, 18 August 2013 (UTC)
Both linked.Jason Rees (talk) 01:58, 20 April 2014 (UTC)
Mention the 18.5 million damage total for Sina in it's section. YE Pacific Hurricane 17:43, 18 August 2013 (UTC)
""Tropical Depression Joy" why are you titling this if according to the section was not named till it left FMS's AOR? YE Pacific Hurricane 17:43, 18 August 2013 (UTC)
What choice do i have? Theres no other name for it. Though that being said im tempted to merge details on the Unnamed TC, Joy and 16P into one section entitled other storms.Jason Rees (talk) 18:38, 18 August 2013 (UTC)
Gopher it. YE Pacific Hurricane 18:59, 18 August 2013 (UTC)
This was done.Jason Rees (talk) 01:58, 20 April 2014 (UTC)
"tropical low" I thought FMS did not call storns "tropical low"s, BOM did. And based on the header, you mean "tropical depression" :P YE Pacific Hurricane 17:43, 18 August 2013 (UTC)
I have no evidence that suggests that FMS monitored it or called it a tropical depression, as a result i have no choice to call it a tropical low.Jason Rees (talk) 01:58, 20 April 2014 (UTC)
"The Cyclone then began" lowercase c. YE Pacific Hurricane 17:43, 18 August 2013 (UTC)
SE chart: Add the one person missing to Sina, giving we have Sina's person missing in the infobox of its respective page. YE Pacific Hurricane 17:43, 18 August 2013 (UTC)
I could not find a source for this missing man.Jason Rees (talk) 01:58, 20 April 2014 (UTC)
" >$18.5 million" since no of the other storms did any damage outside of Sina, why the ">". YE Pacific Hurricane 17:43, 18 August 2013 (UTC)
Because Sina did damage to Fiji, Tonga, the Cook Islands and Niue, but the damage total is just for Fiji.
How does "Retired South Pacific tropical cyclone names" apply here, given that Sina has an article? That works for just storm pages :P YE Pacific Hurricane 17:43, 18 August 2013 (UTC)
If your on about the "Retired South Pacific tropical cyclone names" template then its not deployed here. Otherwise you will need to clarify what you mean?Jason Rees (talk) 18:38, 18 August 2013 (UTC)
That's what I meant, and yea, it's gone. YE Pacific Hurricane 02:30, 20 April 2014 (UTC)
Nine months later, others issues I've noticed. YE Pacific Hurricane 22:15, 1 May 2014 (UTC)

" During the season there was no one killed from tropical disturbances whilst they were within the South Pacific. " comma after "the season". YE Pacific Hurricane 22:15, 1 May 2014 (UTC)
"However six people were killed by Cyclone Joy when it made landfall on Australia." add a comma after "however". YE Pacific Hurricane 22:15, 1 May 2014 (UTC)
Why the hec does Sina have 3 pargrahs?? It has a storm article for a reason. YE Pacific Hurricane 22:15, 1 May 2014 (UTC)
Why is part of Sina's impact unsourced? YE Pacific Hurricane 22:15, 1 May 2014 (UTC)
"A weak gale force tropical cyclone affected Tonga between December 14–17.[10][11]" use transitions such as "Meanwhile," here. YE Pacific Hurricane 22:15, 1 May 2014 (UTC)
"During March, three significant tropical depressions including 15 and 16P were observed within the Coral Sea/Australian region, which not become tropical cyclones on the Australian scale but were subject to gale warnings.[5] " add "did" after "which not".

Hello User:Jason Rees, I am going to review this article for you. Well, I can't even remember the last time I reviewed one of your articles. It's been a while.--12george1 (talk) 19:13, 16 May 2014 (UTC)

"occurring within the South Pacific basin to the east of 160°E." - After the word "basin", add a comma and say "which is". So something like this: "occurring within the South Pacific basin, which is to the east of 160°E."

"and estimate windspeeds over a ten minute period" - I believe windspeeds is two words: wind speeds. Ditto with the other three uses in the article.

"The basin then remained quiet until March when 3 significant tropical depressions including" - Spell out 3

"maintained a south-eastward track" - Southeastward does not need a dash or hyphen

"caused no deaths and over $18.5 million in damages, as it affected Fiji, Tonga" - I don't mean to Americanise (or Americanize :P) you, but make sure you put (1990 USD) after that damage figure
Ive added the letters US before the dollar sign but am not going to put (1990 USD) as i would presume most people recognize that the damage is in 1990. Also since there is a link to USD in the infobox, i am not going to put a second one in per WP:Overlink.Jason Rees (talk) 01:04, 20 May 2014 (UTC)
"As Sina moved through the archipelago, the system destroyed or damaged houses and other building structures, while bringing down electric and telephone lines and uprooting trees. The system also washed away a railway bridge on Vanua Levu that was used to take sugar cane to Labasa's mills, growers had no choice but to go through the village of Korowiri. However, the workers refused to go into their fields unless they had police protection to go through the village, after Methodists from the local church attacked a group of growers for working on Sundays in defiance of Fiji's Sunday Observance Decree. Within Tonga only minor damage to weak structures, trees, banana plantations, electric and telephone lines was recorded. Within both Niue and the Southern Cook Islands only minor damage to crops and structures was reported." - [citation needed].

BTW, this is a grammar error "he system also washed away a railway bridge on Vanua Levu that was used to take sugar cane to Labasa's mills, growers had no choice but to go through the village of Korowiri." Replace the comma with a semi-colon or find another way for the first part of the sentence to accommodate that second part.

"There were no reports of any significant damage associated with Lisa in either Papua New Guinea, the Solomon Islands or Vanuatu" - The word "either" is not necessary because there is more than two places listed.

Nice work, User:Jason Rees. I am now going to pass this article and list it as a Good Article. Regards,--12george1 (talk) 19:20, 21 May 2014 (UTC)
