Talk:Pacific typhoon season

message: I just finished the 1996 season, and did 1997, 1998, and 2003 with the notable storms format. Is this acceptable for showing major storms, should we show no notable storms, or should we list every storm each season? I notice that on the 2004, 2002, 2001 (with the exception of Vamei), 2000, and 1999, it doesn't say anything about the individual storms. We should discuss the formatting here (if anyone is even here :) Hurricanehink 20:20, 30 October 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Don't worry, I have almost all of these on my watchlist :) Anyway, I think the notable storm format is good. That way, we can get the big points across quickly (and with continuity). -- RattleMan 20:32, 30 October 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Good to know that, lol! That sounds good, so I'll fix the other years. Hurricanehink 21:38, 30 October 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  Notable storms 

message: Like any list of seasons, the question begs to be asked; How far back should we go. JTWC reports go back to 1959, Unisys goes back to 1945, but reliable satellite imagery only goes back to around 1970. I am sort of adopting this as my section of the month (I try and improve a hurricane section each month, I've done stubs, Atlantic hurricane seasons, individual summaries for 1950-1978 seasons), so I will do whatever. I personally vote for 1950; a nice, round date and a good mid-point IMO for 1945 and 1959. Hurricanehink 03:08, 2 November 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree with 1950. You sure are quite the amazing guy, doing all this stuff. I can try to help. -- RattleMan 03:19, 2 November 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks, and I'd be glad for the help. 1950 sounds good, but we should wait to officially extend it further (it doesn't look nice with all the red, IMO). Hurricanehink 12:40, 2 November 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  How far back? 

message: How far back should we mention those? All the way? 1990? Personally, I am just pasting the list every 4 years, fixing accordingly for retired storms. I have no idea which storm is which, so should we bother keeping it? Do we even have a source for the names for each season? Am I asking too many questions? ;) Hurricanehink 22:21, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Aww man. Thanks for the link, but personally, I am getting too lazy to add all of the information for each and every year. Anyone else can do if they want, but I still thank you for the site. Hurricanehink 03:14, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  Philippine Storm Names 

message: We should have an article Pre-1950 Pacific typhoon seasons, that simply gives a tabled list of storms like is done for the old Atlantic articles.  Note that just deleting the links to the existing pre-1950 articles doesn't help much, since the articles are still there. — jdorje (talk) 00:51, 9 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm deleting them for now because there is no information in there. There could be enough information for decadal articles for quite a while back. Just check above at the top of the page. Hurricanehink 00:53, 9 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I'll merge them. Hurricanehink 00:54, 9 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, we should start by making a pre-1950 article, then when enough information is available we can split it up and keep moving it back in time.  Certain typhoons like the Kamikaze would never be mentioned outside of a pre-XXXX article. — jdorje (talk) 01:04, 9 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: That sounds good, but we should finish 1950-1958 first. Hurricanehink 01:19, 9 February 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Pre-1950 

message: It seems to me that the minimum number of storm descriptions in an article to let it stay is four. Is that true or should it become a rule in the west pacific? Icelandic Hurricane #12 14:21, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Now knowing that one sentence is needed for each storm to be a start class, we really need to go through and add more storms. Anyone wanna help? íslenska hurikein #12(samtal) 01:39, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I would, but I'm sick of the WPAC. I suppose it's my fault that the season articles only have a few descriptions per season, but I did 40+ years of that. Sorry, but I can't help. Too many other thins to do. Hurricanehink (talk) 01:57, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Minimum article requirement

message: Every article before 1963 says that PAGASA is naming storms within its AOR (or suggest they did?). But PAGASA haven't even started naming tropical storms until 1963 when they have established a 4 list of names. Should this be corrected?

replies: text: Not yet, I would say. I am working out something in my sandbox about this article and improving it like the List of Pacific hurricanes and List of Atlantic hurricane records, if it is ok for you guys. Typhoon2013 (talk) 19:45, 14 May 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm not sure if that's necessary. A lot of what's in your sandbox is already covered in the article on typhoon. A lot of what you have is trivial, or is already on other articles. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk)  01:03, 16 May 2015 (UTC)

message: I personally think that the tables regarding each PTS' stats could be better organised? Perhaps taking off the column of the number of retired typhoon names since someone can just basically see and count how many there are. This goes the same towards the decades' totals of the retirees because I believe there is a separate article(s) for that regarding retired typhoon names, either by the JMA or PAGASA. Any other thoughts would be nice. Typhoon2013 (talk) 03:09, 10 May 2020 (UTC)

thread_title:  Table cleanup  

message: List of Pacific typhoon seasons → Pacific typhoon season. There is no:
#List of Atlantic hurricane seasons
#List of Pacific hurricane seasons
#List of North Indian Ocean cyclone seasons
#List of South-West Indian Ocean cyclone seasons
#List of Australian region cyclone seasons
#List of South Pacific cyclone seasons and to a lesser extent,
#List of South Atlantic tropical cyclone seasons (redlink)
#List of Mediterranean tropical-like cyclone seasons (redlink)... I don't view those as TCs.
So why not move to Pacific typhoon season to catch up to the other XX cyclone season articles? 🐔Chicdat ChickenDatabase 11:20, 11 May 2020 (UTC)

thread_title:  Move? 

message: I noticed that, in the tables, the columns for the number of storms are titled
TD  TS  TY  STY 
except for the 1940s, where the order is different and they're
TS 	TD 	TY 	STY
Is that by any chance a typo?
