Edts on 1928 Okeechobee hurricane

I appreciate the edits that you made on 1928 Okeechobee hurricane ↗. I would like to discuss them with you. First, most tropical storm articles start with the Meteorological history section. Is there a basis for starting with the Name section? Second, the name of this storm in Puerto Rico is already discussed in the Puerto Rico section with a history of storm naming. Did you want to have duplicate information? Is there a compelling reason to have it in two separate sections? <span style="color:#ff00cc;">'''Popular'''</span><span style="color:#6600cc;">'''Outcast'''</span> <sup><span style="color:#ff9900;">'''talk2me'''</span></sup> 21:22, 12 October 2018 (UTC)
:@PopularOutcast There was another article, 1899 San Ciriaco hurricane ↗, that already had a similar section before its meteorological data section (before I joined Wikipedia), so I thought I could do the same to a few (not all) articles about significant cyclones that hit both P.R. and mainland U.S. If there is a reason to move the section somewhere else (like after Impact/Aftermath) or merge it with another section, then we can discuss it in the article's talk page - I have no complaints.

WPTC

Its news to me that you need to be formally invited to join WP:WPTC since as far as I know you can just add your name to the bottom but here goes nothing. {{WP:WPTC/Invite}}

On a side note I would be rather surprised if you could spin tropical cyclone numbering out into a separate article, as I don't think it has as richer history or has been covered in as many sources as the naming.Jason Rees (talk) 20:47, 11 December 2018 (UTC)

:You may be right about that - numbering is less widely known than naming (because names are easier to remember than numbers; whereas numbers are restricted to characters 0 to 9 and up to two digits, names can use all the Roman alphabet and have no restriction as to their length, which may explain why PAGASA chose to use names rather than numbers for tropical depressions and upwards). I would start it as a stub, then slowly try to grow it as I find sources (and if you or {{ping|Meow}} has spare time, you could also add anything useful you could find from non-US sources). Thankee for the invite! --SilSinn9821 (talk) 03:45, 12 December 2018 (UTC)

Testing new signature…

Possible new cyclone suffix used by RSMC La Réunion

For Desmond and Ekestang, I found that RSMC La Réunion called them '''06S''' and '''07S''' on their bulletin for cyclone activity before they are named, yet I am not sure if ''S'' is now officially the new suffix. 🐱💬 13:19, 24 January 2019 (UTC)
:{{ping|Meow}} '''S''' is the suffix used by JTWC for the whole South Indian Ocean (both SWIO and the western half of AUSR), so the idea of RSMC La Réunion repurposing the “S” for SWIO cyclones is leading to some degree of confusion right now. Checking ATCF’s past warnings:
:*SH062019 ↗
:*SH072019 ↗
:It looks that, under JTWC, ''06S'' corresponded to AUSR’s Kenanga (from the Indonesian namelist, I presume), while ''07S'' corresponded to SWIO’s Cilida; Desmond was ID’d by JTWC as ''10S'', and it seems that JTWC never tracked Eketsang because I cannot locate any storm ID for it (the list of warnings stops at ''11S'' which is AUSR’s Riley). So I don’t really know what to do at this time; if La Réunion keeps numbering its next cyclones with the “S” (and the numbers are different from the JTWC ones for the same systems), then I will consider making a note on the table template. If {{ping|Jason Rees}} wants to weigh in, I welcome that. ‑‑🌀⁠'''''SilSinn'''''<sup>AL982100 ↗</sup>⁠💬 16:52, 24 January 2019 (UTC)
::While I see Reunion did indeed attach an S to the Pre-Desmond and Pre-Ekestang systems in a couple ↗ of bulletins ↗, I'm not convinced that it is a full-blown suffix or isn't a typo. This is because Reunion is a full-time TC warning centre like JTWC, NHC and JMA and talks with the JTWC about systems and probably uses the INVEST designation. Looking through the warnings via their website and emails, I notice that they were not consistent with using the suffix S and go as far as saying "THE 07-20182019 SYSTEM" ↗ in one warning. However, I will send an email & check with them about it.Jason Rees (talk) 21:07, 24 January 2019 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for February 11

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited HP calculator character set ↗, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Private use area ↗ ([//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/HP_calculator_character_set check to confirm] | [//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab_solver.py/HP_calculator_character_set?client=notify fix with Dab solver]). Such links are usually incorrect ↗, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. <small>(Read the FAQ{{*}} Join us at the DPL WikiProject ↗.)</small>

Google Code-In 2019 is coming - please mentor some documentation tasks!

Hello,

Google Code-In ↗, Google-organized contest in which the Wikimedia Foundation participates, starts in a few weeks. This contest is about taking high school students into the world of opensource. I'm sending you this message because you recently edited a documentation page at the English Wikipedia.

I would like to ask you to take part in Google Code-In as a mentor. That would mean to prepare at least one task (it can be documentation related, or something else - the other categories are Code, Design, Quality Assurance and Outreach) for the participants, and help the student to complete it. Please sign up at the contest page ↗ and send us your Google account address to google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org, so we can invite you in!

From my own experience, Google Code-In can be fun, you can make several new friends, attract new people to your wiki and make them part of your community.

If you have any questions, please let us know at google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org.

Thank you!
