Thanks for recognizing that I have a lot of knowledge about Tropical Cyclones in the Southern Hemisphere. It's kinda weird since I live in the UK and have never set foot in the Southern Hemisphere though I do off course move from the Western Hemisphere into the Eastern Hemisphere from time to time! Anyway, while I dont mind the drafts coming over to my userspace, my feeling is that we have to be extremely careful with which ones we move, as there are a few systems there that imo do not need articles. For example: Tui, Ursula and Veli 1998, as while they were later retired/removed from the naming lists after the season they didn't do anything major.Jason Rees (talk) 14:22, 8 February 2026 (UTC)

Honestly, I believe such articles can be expanded beyond what their season summary report says by using newspapers, even if their impacts were "nothing". For example, there are nearly 300 non-copyrighted newspapers covering Cyclone Tui. Nonetheless, I will start moving the drafts when you tell me which ones you want moved into your userspace.

I have moved a few sandboxes over this morning and while I respect your position and can't really argue with it. I took a look at those "nearly 300 newspaper articles" for Tui, though and noticed that a majority of them were the column EarthWeek. On a side note, Im tempted to nick Hazen and Pamela off you as well. Jason Rees (talk) 00:44, 9 February 2026 (UTC)

Be as greedy as you want. FourNoddlers (talk) 01:24, 9 February 2026 (UTC)

Any other articles you want moved? FourNoddlers (talk) 01:57, 9 February 2026 (UTC)

Thanks between us I think we have caught all of the ones that are definitely worth an article now.Jason Rees (talk) 19:09, 9 February 2026 (UTC)

You're welcome. Also, I'm okay with you moving any of my user space drafts as long as you strongly believe they are worth an article. If there are any "non-notable" drafts, I prefer that you merge or move them into my user space instead of blanking them to preserve the sources. Thank you, and have a nice day.

And by the way, I have a comprehensive list of retired Southern Hemisphere names with articles that you can browse for more article-worthy drafts since I wasn't around long enough to create them all. Feel free to move that page too. @Jason Rees FourNoddlers (talk) 19:19, 9 February 2026 (UTC)

Hi there, not gonna start an edit war but I was just wondering why did you revised the opening statement of Rammasun and Mangkhut into “locally named ____ (by PAGASA; optionally)” instead of the traditional “known in the Philippines as _______”. I mean both of these typhoons affect other countries tho other than Philippines; South China, Vietnam for Rammasun and Guam, Hong Kong, and China for Mangkhut. I understand that that part “locally named ____ (by PAGASA; optionally)” was only used when Philippines was only affected by any tropical cyclone; but its kinda weird for me when it was used for other typhoons like what I mentioned earlier; which is affected by other countries aside from the Philippines.

Why did you do this ? Both WE and WX are fine to use, but you replaced one with the other on half the page, leaving the whole thing inconsistent. Please don't make half-baked unilateral changes to important pages like this in future. Toadspike [Talk] 13:25, 6 April 2026 (UTC)

I've now seen the talk page discussion and replied there, apologies for accusing you of unilateral action. I'll try to clean up the page now. Toadspike [Talk] 13:33, 6 April 2026 (UTC)
