Hi, happy to pick up your nomination! I'm not well-versed in weather-related GAN, so may have poor eyes for broadness criteria. Otherwise will try my best :)! —LastJabberwocky (Rrarr) 16:51, 12 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• There are more than 60% of plaguarized material from https://www.aoml.noaa.gov/hrd/hurdat/metadata_master.html#1879_1 this source].

• Someone mentioned something like that on a previous review of another Atlantic hurricane season, but they found that the tool detected things that can be dismissed as common phrasing. This seems to be the case here. For example, "weakened to a tropical depression", "the hurricane weakened to a tropical storm", "ship reports indicated that", "Gulf Coast of the United States", "the Atlantic hurricane database", etc. --12george1 (talk) 05:32, 13 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Fair enough! And the couple of phrases i tried to paraphrase were not elegant enough to change the status quo :). Y —LastJabberwocky (Rrarr) 07:02, 13 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• There are three links that doesn't work for me: [1], [2], [3].

• The archive urls for those work though, don't they?--12george1 (talk) 05:32, 13 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• There are two links to Louisiana in the first section

• Fixed--12george1 (talk) 05:32, 13 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• landfall can be linked for people with zero knowledge of meteorologist terminology

• I've got one in the lead section and another in the summary, so I linked its first usage in the storms section (first paragraph of Hurricane Two)

• and the latter inflicted about $500,000 in Louisiana ---> and the latter inflicted about $500,000 spendings in Louisiana

• There was at least one word missing there, but "$500,000 in damage" makes more sense--12george1 (talk) 05:32, 13 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• drowned all but two occupants of the schooner Sallie in the Gulf of Mexico Do we know how many occupants there were? How many died?
• accounts from ships ---> accounts from affected ships or accounts from nearby ships

• I went with nearby ships--12george1 (talk) 05:32, 13 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
