History of hurricanes in the Caribbean[edit]

The article, originally much longer, has now been reduced to a dab. It is largely orphaned, and serves very little purpose, due to the frequency of hurricanes in the Caribbean. Since another user switched it to AFD class, I took the initiative to propose this deletion. ♬♩ Hurricanehink (talk) 02:04, 17 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete At the stage that it's in, it serves no purpose and could probably be CSD A3'd. However, looking through the page history, it at one point was a fairly long list, albeit unreferenced and poorly written, of hurricanes in the Carribbean. As I don't understand why it was converted into a useless dab, I don't see why we can't just revert to the last revision when it was actually an article. Since even then it would be a mess, I'm in favor of deleting or redirecting to List of Atlantic hurricanes, at least until somebody wants to rewrite it as List of Caribbean hurricanes.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.

Delete The article says that "This is a disambiguation page." and it's clearly written by someone who does not know what a disambiguation page is. There are not two meanings to the phrase "History of hurricanes in the Caribbean". Mandsford (talk) 14:24, 23 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to List of Atlantic hurricane seasons.—RJH (talk) 17:18, 23 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Hurricanes in the Caribbean aren't really related to List of Atlantic hurricane seasons... Juliancolton ^Tropical ^Cyclone 17:33, 23 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
