Hey Chicdat, I know this is annoying, but you are the sole defender of contested content in a Talk page discussion against 4 editors who disagree with you. You’re going to have to argue on the Talk page to gather consensus to include it, per WP:ONUS. ꧁Zanahary꧂ 23:09, 14 February 2025 (UTC)
Re: Larry and 2002
Hey there Chicdat. First off, yea, Larry looks to be in pretty good shape. The met history is the one part that I think needs work before you take it to GAN. For a long-lived major hurricane, there are some things that you should discuss, such as the structural evolution of the storm (did it ever develop outflow or rainbands), and external factors in the storm's track/evolution. For example, you mention the subtropical ridge in the third paragraph, but that was probably a factor much earlier. Also, there's one too many images. The impacts can also be expanded. If there were impacts in Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands, then there were likely impacts in other Caribbean islands, or the Bahamas. One more thing, the article spends a fair bit of time talking about the stolen boat. It sounds like that could've been a fatality - when did they call off the search and rescue? Was there no more info about that? Double check for more Canada damage. The article says $20 million in damage but only gives a few concrete examples.
As for 2002, good job so far! I see you have most of the tables done. That is definitely the most annoying aspect, getting references for every fatality and damage total, and then formatting it all correctly. The only thing you're missing is a few depressions by the JMA, but I'm not sure of the best place to cite that. Maybe Gary Padgett/Steve Young? I notice some of the season sections still need citations, but I'm guessing you haven't done all of them yet.
Keep up the good work Chicdat! ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 18:34, 22 February 2025 (UTC)
