General comments
The season infobox lists 14 depressions, but the article only accounts for 12 (13 including the JTWC TS, but the named storm total excludes the JTWC system). Was there an extra TD monitored by MFR that's not mentioned or is this just a typo?
Typo, weird... ♫ Hurricanehink (talk)  14:59, 2 May 2015 (UTC)
Add the {{#tag:ref||group="nb"|name=""}} note for 10-minute winds like I mentioned in the 1987-88 SWIO GAN
Done. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk)  14:59, 2 May 2015 (UTC)
Made some minor copyedits, mostly involving links.
Severe Tropical Storm Costa
"Later that day, the Madagascar Meteorological Service named it Costa..." – Was it classified as a gale system at this time, or was it named as a depression?
Named as a depression. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk)  14:59, 2 May 2015 (UTC)
Tropical Cyclone Delifinina
"On January 7, the JTWC classified the system as Tropical Cyclone 04S to the east-southeast." – east-southeast what? Location, movement?
Whoops, ESE of Costa. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk)  14:59, 2 May 2015 (UTC)
Probably can't include this in the article since it's borderline OR, but interesting that the MFR and JTWC are in complete disagreement on location and movement at times despite the system having an eye... IBTrACS
Yea, gotta get on that reanalysis... ♫ Hurricanehink (talk)  14:59, 2 May 2015 (UTC)
Intense Tropical Cyclone Erinesta
"The 24 hour total there was the third highest on record at the time, only behind storms from 1958 and 1964, and higher than Cyclone Hyacinthe, the wettest storm on record." – Cyclone Denise in 1966 also had a higher 24 hour rainfall total than Erinesta according to NOAA at 1825 mm (71.8 in), which would rank Erinesta at least fourth. Probably worth looking into this a bit more
If I had to guess, the source meant to write 1958 and 1966, not 1964. I can't seem to find any wet storm in 1964 hitting Reunion. I'm not sure how to report this without violating WP:OR. What about saying "The 24 hour total was among the highest on record at the time, higher than Hyacinthe..."? I tried something like that, lemme know if it works or not. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk)  14:59, 2 May 2015 (UTC)
Tropical Cyclone Honorinina
Please include the JTWC peak intensity
Added. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk)  14:59, 2 May 2015 (UTC)
"Damage spread along 800 km (500 mi) of the coastline and spread 100 km (60 mi) inland from the landfall point..." – double use of "spread"
I spread my verbiage out appropriately now. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk)  14:59, 2 May 2015 (UTC)
Moderate Tropical Storm Iarima
The specific mention of a time only in this section seems odd. Can't consider it an issue, really, but just seems out of place when you haven't used times at any other point.
I was trying to mesh the sources together. One source said that Iarima formed on March 13, but didn't say at what intensity, but the other source did, and I want to note when it was named. Does that make sense? ♫ Hurricanehink (talk)  14:59, 2 May 2015 (UTC)
Tropical Cyclone Billy-Lila
"Shortly thereafter, Lila crossed 90º E back into the Australian basin, where it was renamed Billy." – Didn't it already have the name Billy at this point?
According to my source, it was just renamed Lila once in the basin, not Billy-Lila. That seems to be a newer thing (that has since been dropped) to have a dual name. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk)  14:59, 2 May 2015 (UTC)
Some issues here and there with the article that I noticed that need to be resolved before I can pass it. Overall good work on the article, though :) Cyclonebiskit (talk) 13:04, 2 May 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for the review!! Hope this all works now. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk)  14:59, 2 May 2015 (UTC)
Everything looks good now! Congrats on your newest GA :) Cyclonebiskit (talk) 19:01, 4 May 2015 (UTC)
