Talk:Typhoon Gay

message: This has enough info to be a B, but I left it as start because I think the organization is inferior and I'm sure there's more info to be found on the India impact. Jdorje 03:06, 14 January 2006 (UTC)

text: Actually according to the PDF it were only 39 in India. The ones missing were those in Chumphon (458) as well as about 600 fishermen in the Gulf of Thailand. I have added these into the text.  andy 20:54, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

I pulled this from IBTrACS. I thought this needs to be fixed as it would be too confusing for readers to say that the 1999 one and Gonu were both stronger than this storm. However, 960 is a great deal higher than 898. These sources aren't New Delhi either, unlike the 1991 Bangladesh cyclone I already changed. Potapych (talk) 15:31, 15 April 2009 (UTC)

text: Do you have anything in terms of WP:COMMON or WP:PRIMARYTOPIC? If so, happy to support. I don't see much reason for Primary Topic. EmeraldRange (talk/contribs) 00:55, 26 June 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: @EmeraldRange A small part of WP:WPTC/S's guideline on the year of storms says  The only typhoon named Gay and has its own article is 1992. 1989 caused more than half a billion dollars compared to 1992, which has no reported damages. 1989 also has over a thousand deaths, but 1992 has only one. The other typhoons that have this name had no recorded damages and deaths. Using this rule, 1989 is the primary topic. 📖 (/) 04:36, 26 June 2023 (UTC)
