Talk:Hurricane Earl (1998)

message: There's not a whole lot of information here, and the storm didn't do all that much. Merge it? Hurricanehink 16:13, 31 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree, the storm wasn't that notable and a lot of the info is menial. Not to mention, the article is not terribly well written. -- §HurricaneERIC§ archive 22:41, 31 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: This storm makes other non-notable storms look notable by comparison.  $15 million in damages?  That's got to be comparable to Arlene or Tammy. — jdorje (talk) 17:57, 9 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Ouch, ownage. Shall I fetch the axe? -- §HurricaneERIC§Damagesarchive 19:51, 10 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Yea, why not? Hurricanehink 19:56, 10 February 2006 (UTC)

text: Probably because it's a near copy of the NHC report. -- §HurricaneERIC§Damagesarchive 16:48, 13 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Nothing wrong with that...probably we should start off all our articles as copies of the NHC reports, then expand them with more modern information. — jdorje (talk) 17:43, 13 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Copies should be avoided. That's what Wikisource is for. Hurricanehink 21:44, 13 February 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Merge? 

message: Fix the numerous typos/grammar errors and prove why this needs an article. While there is a good amount of information here, it simply hides the fact that the storm wasn't that notable. Given the brevity of the section in the storm summary, much of the important information here could easily be put there. Because of that, I propose this be re-merged. Hurricanehink 00:22, 16 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I second that. Make sure the important info here is moved to the main article, I don't want anything lost in translation here. -- §HurricaneERIC§Damagesarchive 02:02, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Todo/Merge?

message: There is one thing that this article does right; it has a map of counties declared disaster areas. I like this idea, and I think that these maps should be used for other tropical cyclone articles, as well. I think it's a useful map. bob rulz 17:40, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed, though there comes a problem when the disaster areas are in more than one state. They only do the map state by state, so it would be useless to have all of the maps for a storm like Floyd. Hurricanehink (talk) 18:44, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Hmm...well, somebody could create one on their own, possibly? bob rulz 23:00, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I dunno. Maybe this should be brought up on the Wikiproject page and see if anyone would want to take a stab at the multi-state. Hurricanehink (talk) 01:01, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Yeah, I agree. I'm going to bring it up there. bob rulz 01:27, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
