"This article is about the Typhoon of 1989; for other storms of the same name, see Tropical Storm Gordon."Remove the dab from the top, and put a link to the dab in the see also section to be consistent with most WPTC articles. YE  Pacific Hurricane 15:09, 4 April 2012 (UTC)

"cyclone's proximity to the Philippines, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration also monitored the storm and assigned it with the local name Goring.[3]" I'd put the abbreviated form (PASGA) in parentheses. YE  Pacific Hurricane 15:09, 4 April 2012 (UTC)
No need since the abbreviation isn't used in the article. Cyclonebiskit (talk) 15:53, 5 April 2012 (UTC)

"Residents along the coast were urged to take "extreme precaution."" why is "extreme precaution" in quotes? YE  Pacific Hurricane 15:09, 4 April 2012 (UTC)
It's not a style of wording I use and it's taken directly from the source, therefore it requires quotes. Cyclonebiskit (talk) 15:53, 5 April 2012 (UTC)
Any number of the people homeless in Hong Kong? YE  Pacific Hurricane 15:09, 4 April 2012 (UTC)
