I have deleted my original review. Ella524 (talk) 13:34, 22 June 2020 (UTC)


### Review reopened
In this case, a brand new Wikipedian opened this review on their first edit, and decided to pass it even though they were completely unable to judge the "Broad in its coverage" criterion. This only shows how unready they are to be a GA reviewer, and I have reopened the review so that a new reviewer can be found to redo the entire review. BlueMoonset (talk) 00:57, 22 June 2020 (UTC)

BlueMoonset, the new user turned out to be the person who nominated the article for a GA review. They have been blocked and NOOBSKINSPAMMER was blocked for 3 days. Dreamy Jazz talk to me | my contributions 21:16, 22 June 2020 (UTC)
I see plenty of issues with the article that need to be addressed... I will leave comments later today. NoahTalk 11:03, 23 June 2020 (UTC)
Dreamy Jazz, thanks for letting me know. Hurricane Noah, as this was an out-of-process nomination by someone who had made no edits at all to the article when they first tried to nominate it on May 19 and succeeded on June 3 (if someone hasn't made significant edits prior, they have to consult with regular editors on the talk page prior to nominating, which was not done), and very minor edits since—and socked to try to pass it—I have reverted the nomination. There is no need to spend time on an article that, as you note, has plenty of issues. Indeed, I'd suggest deleting this page altogether, so it's available in the future for when editors have brought the article closer to the GA criteria and one is ready to do a genuine nomination. Thanks for being willing to take this on. BlueMoonset (talk) 13:28, 23 June 2020 (UTC)
Actually, do we need to keep this page around since its edit history is the proof of the socking? If so, perhaps it should simply be archived. BlueMoonset (talk) 13:35, 23 June 2020 (UTC)

Will do this one tomorrow and/or Wednesday. NoahTalk 02:26, 6 October 2020 (UTC)

I really do apologize, but I won't be able to do this until the weekend (ie Friday night and Saturday) due to a serious google security breach as well as additional RL issues. I am concerned about the mental well-being of one of my friends and need to be there for him. NoahTalk 16:37, 8 October 2020 (UTC)

This should be it for the sources. I know you are eventually gunning for FAs so I gave you a source formatting review. This is all I will do for now since it took a couple of hours to look over everything. NoahTalk 15:34, 11 October 2020 (UTC)


### Lead
Hurricane Barry was an asymmetrical Category 1 hurricane that made landfall in Louisiana in July 2019. I would give some general details about impact in the first sentence rather than details about Barry's structure.
 Done
over the Midwest on July 2 It's okay... you can say Kansas here as the midwest is a large region.
 Done
The system eventually emerged into the Gulf of Mexico on July 10, whereupon the National Hurricane Center (NHC) designated it as a potential tropical cyclone later. Again, this is a bit too vague. Could you add something about the state it emerged from? The GoM is rather large.
 Done
Early on July 11, the system developed into a tropical depression and later into the second named storm of the 2019 Atlantic hurricane season. On July 13, Barry attained maximum 1-minute sustained winds of 75 mph (120 km/h), with a minimum central pressure of 993 millibars (29.3 inHg), becoming the first hurricane of the season. Okay... this is where the lead gets a bit choppy. If you want to relate Barry to the season, you should do this directly after you mention the "wettest records". Say Barry was the second named storm and first hurricane of the 2019 Atlantic hurricane season. and make sure to source it with Atlantic HURDAT (there is a template on Wikipedia for this). As for the actual met... The system developed into a tropical depression early on July 11 and strengthened into a tropical storm later that day. Barry continued to strengthen over the next couple of days, peaking around 12:00 UTC on July 13 as a Category 1 hurricane with maximum sustained winds of 75 mph (120 km/h) and a pressure of 993 mbar (29.32 inHg). or something similar.
 Done
Later that day, Barry made landfall on Marsh Island and second landfall in Intracoastal City, Louisiana, both times as a Category 1 hurricane. --> Later that day, Barry made its first landfall on Marsh Island and another in Intracoastal City, Louisiana, both times as a Category 1 hurricane.
Landfall is overlinked in the lead.
 Done
Barry subsequently weakened to tropical storm status soon after due to land interaction. --> After moving inland, Barry quickly weakened, falling to tropical depression status by July 15. (Note: I removed the TS mention as it wouldn't take much for a 5 mph fall)
 Done
'The storm continued weakening, and finally degenerated into a remnant low over northern Arkansas on July 15, before dissipating on July 19. The bolded part really isn't needed. I would start this with  something like "Barry tracked (direction) and degenerated into a remnant low..."
 Done
Barry was one of four hurricanes to hit Louisiana at that intensity in the month of July At what intensity?
 Done
Numerous Tropical Storm watches and warnings were issued ahead of the storm. As Barry was predicted to make landfall as a hurricane, the Tropical Storm warnings were later upgraded into Hurricane warnings. Tropical storm and hurricane should not be capitalized.
 Done
Officials warned of significant impacts from Barry, including high winds, storm surge, and several feet of rain. I dont see why this should be mentioned in the lead. If these effects did occur, then you simply state it as such.
 Done
@Hurricane Noah: Done with the lead. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 21:22, 11 October 2020 (UTC)

I will return to do the rest in a bit. NoahTalk 20:11, 11 October 2020 (UTC)
Lead is reviewed. NoahTalk 20:31, 11 October 2020 (UTC)
@Hurricane Noah: I’m glad you didn’t immediately fail it. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 20:55, 11 October 2020 (UTC)


### Meteorological history
You should avoid starting sentences with dates as it chops off the flow of the prose.
a broad low pressure area exited from the Florida Panhandle into the northeastern Gulf of Mexico, Hyphenate "low pressure" area (check for the other two occurrences in the met) and delete the bolded text. After panhandle, add "and tracked".
 Done
scattered thunderstorms link Atmospheric Convection.
 Not done Why? ~ Destroyeraa🌀 22:55, 11 October 2020 (UTC)
Because thunderstorm activity and convection are the same concept. NoahTalk 22:59, 11 October 2020 (UTC)
I still think people know what scattered thunderstorms are. I think I should link convection to atmospheric convection, thoug.h ~ Destroyeraa🌀 23:43, 11 October 2020 (UTC)
It moved southwestward and curved to the west. why?
 Partly done. The TCR only saws that it moved east of a mid-level ridge.~ Destroyeraa🌀 22:56, 11 October 2020 (UTC)
Weather system You don't need to say this in the article. You can simply say system.
 Done
due to its threat of producing tropical storm force winds over the United States within a few days. You could simplify this to "due to the threat it posed to the United States".
 Done
At that time, the low pressure area was experiencing some northerly wind shear, which was expected to decrease. link Wind shear#Vertical component on wind shear.
 Done
The NHC described the atmospheric conditions, including water temperatures of over 86 °F (30 °C), as "ideal for intensification" You should tell the story of the storm, not the agency. The atmospheric conditions were NOT ideal given the shear. The NHC states in the source that atmospheric conditions would become ideal by 48h and beyond. You should say sea surface temperatures of 86–88 °F (30–31 °C) to have the official term and since a range is given by the source.
 Done
Early on July 11, the system developed into a tropical depression in the northern Gulf of Mexico, about 200 mi (320 km) south of Mobile, Alabama. The depression quickly intensified into Tropical Storm Barry You should mention the UTC time for the first event and then say six hours later for the TS strength.
 Done
By that time, the thunderstorms had increased to the south of the circulation. You should clarify this is the system's circulation.
 Done
This was due to northerly wind shear and dry air near the center Which was the result of this? The banding or the lack of thunderstorms? You could clarify by saying "the latter". Also, I believe the TCR mentions this was mid-level dry air.
 Done
Despite the asymmetric structure of the storm, Barry gradually intensified. Why would that hinder intensification? This is quite vague.
 Done. Removed. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 01:39, 17 October 2020 (UTC)
The NHC estimated that Barry attained Category 1 hurricane status by 12:00 UTC that day, concluding that Barry was producing a small area of hurricane-force winds. This was based on observations from the Hurricane Hunters, Doppler weather radar wind estimates of 75 mph (121 km/h), and recorded sustained winds of 72 mph (116 km/h) at Eugene Island oil field.[11] Simultaneously, the storm reached its peak intensity, with a minimum central pressure of 993 millibars (29.3 inHg).[2] The first and last sentences could be simplified a good bit. You need not mention the NHC here. You should simply mention the peak at 75 mph/993 mbar and then the observations that back it up. You will need to link hurricane hunters though. Also, what kind of sustained winds?
 Partly done Hurricane hunters already linked. Rest was chopped down. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 01:39, 17 October 2020 (UTC)
Now inland, the hurricane quickly weakened to tropical storm status just six hours after its upgrade. --> "Moving inland, ... status three hours after landfall." I recommend changing the sentence to that because the decline wasn't particularly notable. Not sure why AccuWeather is needed here though.
 Done
Progressing farther inland, We get it already.. jk
 Done
Barry further weakened to a tropical depression at 21:00 UTC on July 14 over Northwestern Louisiana Not supported by TCR; check time and location.
 Done
At 21:00 UTC on July 15, Barry degenerated into a remnant low over northern Arkansas,[15] Also changed in post-season reanalysis.
 Done
which degenerated into a trough a day later over southern Missouri. there is an exact time for this.
 Done
During the next several days, Barry's remnant moved eastward while gradually weakening, with the WPC issuing their final advisory on the storm at 21:00 UTC on July 17.[16] Early on July 19, Barry's remnant was absorbed into another frontal system off the coast of New Jersey.[17] The NHC cut the track off at 12:00 UTC on July 16. I would recommend you change the article to match this. NoahTalk 02:15, 12 October 2020 (UTC)
 Done
Barry was one of four hurricanes to hit Louisiana at Category 1 intensity in the month of July, the others being Bob in 1979, Danny in 1997, and Cindy in 2005.[1] Is there a reason that this poor guy is by himself? I think it should be mentioned right after the landfalls.
 Done
I will come back and review the rest of the met tonight. I did paragraph one for now. NoahTalk 21:18, 11 October 2020 (UTC)
The rest is done. NoahTalk 02:15, 12 October 2020 (UTC)


### Preparations
Disclaimer that the preps may still need to be expanded based upon what you discover when you search for new info. I am just reviewing what is already there for now. NoahTalk 02:29, 12 October 2020 (UTC)

You need to make sure the watches and warnings are all together in this section. You should cite the TCR once for the whole paragraph. You can mention the specific UTC times that they were issued.
 Partly done
Due to United States Army Corps of Engineers fears that levees would be overtopped in Plaquemines Parish, Louisiana by storm surge atop elevated streams, a mandatory evacuation was ordered for the parish effective on the morning of July 11. The evacuation order affected approximately 8,000–10,000 residents. Add a comma after LA. The source mentions historically high river levels, which likely is worth noting here. Personally, the first sentence should be rewritten to just state what the fears were. I would take the part about the order being issued and add it to the second sentence. Eg. "a mandatory evacuation was ordered for the parish effective the morning of July 11, affecting 8,000–10,000 residents."
 Done
Carnival Valor - Ship name needs to be italicized.
 Done
New Orleans mayor Job title needs to be capitalized.
 Done
citing a Category 3 hurricane as the threshold I would rather this be "citing Category 3 status as the threshold".
 Done
Mississippi governor Job title needs to be capitalized.
 Done
I reviewed what is currently there. NoahTalk 02:53, 12 October 2020 (UTC)


### Impact
Disclaimer that the impact may still need to be expanded based upon what you discover when you search for new info. I am just reviewing what is already there for now. NoahTalk 02:29, 12 October 2020 (UTC)

Florida panhandle and Texas coast Both are referring to regions and should be capitalized.
 Done
Wind gusts reached 56 mph (91 km/h) at Sabine Pass, Texas.[2] This should belong in elsewhere section?
 Done
6 to 9 in (150 to 230 mm) "6-to-9" and the same for the mm measurement.
 Not done Why? ~ Destroyeraa🌀 12:59, 12 October 2020 (UTC)
Because it is a compound adjective modifying the noun. NoahTalk 13:11, 12 October 2020 (UTC)
The strongest recorded winds on land was 66 mph (106 km/h) Subject verb agreement.
 Done
One tornado struck the Gentilly neighborhood in New Orleans, damaging two homes EF status?
Pinging ChessEric. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 12:59, 12 October 2020 (UTC)
@Destroyeraa: It was in the article, but the NCDC never said anything about it. Therefore, I listed it as only a report.ChessEric (talk · contribs) 17:30, 12 October 2020 (UTC)
Flooding should be linked earlier than it is.
 Partly done Removed the link altogether. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 22:49, 17 October 2020 (UTC)
Louisiana coast Capitalize this as it is a region.
 Done
The most widespread power outages occurred where wind speeds were highest in Lafourche Parish and Terrebonne Parish, as well as eastern Baton Rouge This is a bit jumbled. "The most widespread power outages occurred in Lafourche and Terrebonne parishes, where wind speeds were highest, as well as in eastern Baton Rouge" would be better.
 Done
It also caused The Rolling Stones to postpone their July 14 show at the Superdome to July 15 due to Barry What is "it"?
 Done
Florida panhandle Capitalize this in the section for Florida.
 Done
In Panama City Beach The link should be here rather than where it is.
 Done
Five people were rescued 23 mi (37 km) southwest of Gulfport, Mississippi Comma after the state name.
 Done
80,000 gallons Abbreviate to US Gal. Capital L for a liter.
 Done
The storm resulted in the closure of popular beaches, including those in Orange Beach and Gulf Shores. The storm caused the closures.
 Done

putting several animals at risk of drowning and hypothermia What happened to the animals?
 Done. Sadly, it killed a puppy, though the rest were rescued. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 12:45, 12 October 2020 (UTC)
Make sure it is floodwaters throughout as flood waters is incorrect.
 Done
16.59 inches (42.1 cm) Also needs to be converted to mm.
 Done
More than 60 mm (2.4 in) of rain fell in Toronto Specify Canada
 Done
the highest daily rainfall total in the month of July since 2013 Should be "its highest"
 Done
That's everything I found pending your additions. NoahTalk 03:24, 12 October 2020 (UTC)
Another tidbit is that you need to cite the text for each of the six storms you mention in the see also. NoahTalk 03:32, 12 October 2020 (UTC)
 Not done No, there are no sources and there doesn't need to be sources for adding storms to the see also section. The storms just need to be somewhat related.~ Destroyeraa🌀 12:32, 12 October 2020 (UTC)
@Hurricanehink: Would you have comments that you would like to leave for the article? NoahTalk 02:21, 18 October 2020 (UTC)


### Hurricanehink's review
"The second tropical or subtropical cyclone, second named storm" - do we need to get into subtropical cyclone? Can't you just do "The second named storm"?
 Not done because of a certain Jason Rees. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 14:51, 19 October 2020 (UTC)
What does that user have to do with the awkward grammar construction? ♫ Hurricanehink (talk)  15:16, 19 October 2020 (UTC)
@Hurricanehink:  Partly done. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 15:24, 19 October 2020 (UTC)
" falling to tropical depression stays on July 15" ?
 Done
Where is the source for - "and another landfall in Intracoastal City, Louisiana"? The MH only mentions the first landfall.
 Done
"The storm finally degenerated into a remnant low over northern Arkansas on July 15, before dissipating on July 19." - infobox says dissipation was on the 16th
 Done
"As Barry was predicted to make landfall as a hurricane, the tropical storm warnings were later upgraded into hurricane warnings" - this level of detail on preps seems excessive for the lead. I'd rather see more about the storm's actual impacts. The only example you give in the lead is power outages, plus the overall damage.
 Done
Wouldn't it be better to mention the convection, or thunderstorms, in the first MH paragraph, rather than second?
 Not done
Not done! ♫ Hurricanehink (talk)  20:26, 19 October 2020 (UTC)
I still prefer mentioning it in the second paragraph, the only place to do it in the first paragraph is adding a sentence to the end @Hurricanehink:. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 17:51, 20 October 2020 (UTC)
Is there a reason? We generally link terms on their first usage. It doesn't make sense saying "convection, or thunderstorms" when you've already used "thunderstorms" in the first para. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk)  17:57, 20 October 2020 (UTC)
@Hurricanehink:  Done ~ Destroyeraa🌀 18:23, 20 October 2020 (UTC)
"though mid-level dry air and northerly wind shear caused few thunderstorms near the center" - "caused " --> "restricted"?
 Done
"Due to a slight decrease in shear on the morning of July 13, climate change caused the storm's outflow to expand and banding to increase." - climate change? Wha? That's really random and seems odd
 Done
"28 parishes issued emergency declarations with another 14 finalizing such declarations" - I don't get the difference between issuing emergency declarations and "finalizing" them
 Done
"On July 12, Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar today declared" - today? In 2020?
 Done
"On the same day, Mississippi Governor Phil Bryant declared a state of emergency" - it had been a few sentences since a date reference, so I'd restate what day it was.
 Done
"Total economic losses from Barry totaled" - redundancy much?
 Done
Were there any Louisiana impacts other than power outages? Considering the storm made landfall there as a hurricane, the article is very light on impacts there. You have more for Alabama/Mississippi
Any progress on this Destroyeraa? Did you try NCDC? ♫ Hurricanehink (talk)  22:33, 25 October 2020 (UTC)
There are lots of duplicate links. Two in back to back sentences in the FL section
Do you have a Mississippi rainfall total?
 Done
The first sentence of "Elsewhere" should say earlier what state you're talking about
 Partly done Split. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 14:58, 19 October 2020 (UTC)
Any Arkansas flooding impacts other than the killed dog? RIP :'( 
 Done
Don't mention "no fatalities". We generally don't mention when things don't happen, instead we write what does happen. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk)  15:33, 19 October 2020 (UTC)
 Done
The infobox mentions impacts in "Oklahoma, Great Lakes region, Northeastern United States" - but the article doesn't discuss any of these areas. How come?
 Done. Found this near Accuweather source that covers the northeast. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 18:30, 19 October 2020 (UTC)
I don't see any sources for impact in Oklahoma or the Great Lakes (unless you mean Canada, as Great Lakes usually implies like Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin area). ♫ Hurricanehink (talk)  20:26, 19 October 2020 (UTC)
How much FEMA aid did affected areas get?
 Done
@Hurricanehink and Hurricane Noah: Found this, which dates to August 27, 2019. It saysthat FEMA spent $16 million in public assistance. Should I add the total to the total costs, since this wasn't included in the AON report (dated August 9, 2019). ~ Destroyeraa🌀 14:09, 23 October 2020 (UTC)
No, that would double up on the damage. There's the storm damage, which AON reported, and there's the money spent to undo the storm's impacts. Just mention this in the aftermath. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk)  14:10, 23 October 2020 (UTC)
Ok @Hurricanehink:. Added some info from FEMA. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 14:35, 23 October 2020 (UTC)
@Hurricanehink: Starting to look at NCDC. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 13:34, 26 October 2020 (UTC)
The article is in OK shape, but it looks rather similar than the last time I looked at the article (when I first helped write the article). I'm not happy with the level of coverage, so I hope you can address these issues. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk)  02:39, 19 October 2020 (UTC)

@Hurricanehink: Just curious to see how you feel about the article. I wouldn't be opposed to giving a bit more time since more content is being added in. @Destroyeraa: Btw, there is a date error on FN58. NoahTalk 23:20, 22 October 2020 (UTC)
I agree, it's almost there, just a few outstanding comments. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk)  01:28, 23 October 2020 (UTC)
I'm unhappy you're unhappy with the amount of coverage. I hope you're happy now. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 16:16, 30 October 2020 (UTC)


### Hurricane Noah's Second Review
Doing a second review of the article this weekend. NoahTalk 16:28, 30 October 2020 (UTC)


#### Sources
I hate to be picky with things, but if you take this to FAC, some source reviewers will be quite picky. This is a combination of new things and items that weren't completely fixed the first time around. NoahTalk 17:41, 30 October 2020 (UTC)
FN2: Remove middle initials for all names
 Done
FNs 4 & 5: Remove middle initials for names. Make Example text --> series=NHC Graphical Outlook Archive. Lastly, for those refs, you need an appropriate title that conveys enough information to the reader. Something like Tropical Weather Outlook: Atlantic [200 AM EDT Mon Jul 8 2019] would be fine.
 Done
FNs 6 & 10: Remove middle initials
 Done
FN 14: I assume someone else added this in. It needs to be changed to have a citation format that matches every other ref. It currently has no parameters or even the citation template itself.
TBH, I don't think this belongs in the MH. It talks more about the impacts. Moved to impact section, fixed. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 18:30, 30 October 2020 (UTC)
FN 15: Remove middle initial and "III"
 Done
FN 23: Remove middle name
 Not done Name is John Bel Edwards. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 18:30, 30 October 2020 (UTC)
Okay... that is fine then. NoahTalk 18:40, 30 October 2020 (UTC)
FN 29: Remove middle initial
 Done
FN 30: Publisher is incorrect... Should be "The Times-Picayune/The New Orleans Advocate".
 Done
FN 34: Check the formatting for the name. It should use last and first parameters, not author parameter.
 Done
FN 35: Title doesn't match and missing the meteorologist's name.
 Not done Tile is correct I believe, and it doesn't say the author's name on the website. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 18:30, 30 October 2020 (UTC)
Meteorologist: By Alex Sosnowski and title is Barry threatens lower Mississippi Valley with significant flooding, isolated tornadoes into Monday

FN 40: Publisher is incorrect... Should be "The Times-Picayune/The New Orleans Advocate".
 Done
FN 43: Delete agency parameter
 Done
