should the infobox use JMA data (10-min sustained) as well as JTWC data? YE ^Pacific ^Hurricane 14:56, 29 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- There is no JMA wind data for that time period :( --♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 14:59, 29 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

"

While passing near Satawan in the Caroline Islands, Pamela produced winds of over 102 km/h (64 mph), which left damage but no deaths.[1]

From May 17 to 18,[1] at the Weather Service on Chuuk, Pamela dumped 14.59 in (371 mm) of rain.[6] This was due to the typhoon's slow movement. The rains resulted in mudslides that killed 10 people,[1] many of whom in a single burried house; several people were also injured.[3] Across the island, the typhoon also left heavy crop damage. Winds reached 91 km/h (56 km/h).[1]

Later, the typhoon produced tropical-storm force gusts and 10 in (250 mm) of rain on Saipan. Impact there was minor.[1]

" Any why to combine these three short paragraphs.

- Well, I kept them separate due to them being three separate land areas. Does that work? --♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 14:59, 29 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

While there a few issues with this article, there are minor enough for me to pass the article! Y E ^Pacific ^Hurricane

Well-written:

(a) the prose is clear, concise, and understandable to an appropriately broad audience; spelling and grammar are correct; and

(b) it complies with the Manual of Style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation.^[1]

Verifiable with no original research:

(a) it contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline;

(b) reliable sources are cited inline. All content that could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose);^[2] and

(c) it contains no original research.

Broad in its coverage:

(a) it addresses the main aspects of the topic;^[3] and

(b) it stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style).

Neutral: it represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each.

Stable: it does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute.

^[4]

Illustrated, if possible, by media such as images, video, or audio:

^[5]

(a) media are tagged with their copyright statuses, and valid non-free use rationales are provided for non-free content; and

(b) media are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions.^[6]

Reasonably-well meets these. :P Y E ^Pacific ^Hurricane

^ Compliance with other aspects of the Manual of Style, or the Manual of Style mainpage, is not required for good articles.
^ Either parenthetical references or footnotes can be used for in-line citations, but not both in the same article.
^ This requirement is significantly weaker than the "comprehensiveness" required of featured articles; it allows shorter articles, articles that do not cover every major fact or detail, and overviews of large topics.
^ Vandalism reversions, proposals to split or merge content, good faith improvements to the page (such as copy editing), and changes based on reviewers' suggestions do not apply. Nominations for articles that are unstable because of constructive editing should be placed on hold.
^ Other media, such as video and sound clips, are also covered by this criterion.
^ The presence of images is not, in itself, a requirement. However, if images (or other media) with acceptable copyright status are appropriate and readily available, then some such images should be provided.
