Wikipedia:WikiProject Tropical cyclones/Article requests

If there are any hurricane/typhoon/cyclone articles that you think should be created, list them here. It will go like this. Note: Not all of these will get an article. It is simply a list. Feel free to debate. Hurricanehink

General

Closed circulation

We have atmospheric circulation, and vorticity, but neither are really about the small-scale circulation that is one of the defining features of a tropical cyclone. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 17:33, 17 February 2026 (UTC)

List of snow storms spawned by tropical cyclones

1804 New England hurricane, Hurricane Ginny (1963), Hurricane Sandy, 1995 India cyclone, Cyclone Hudhud, and I'm sure there are many more snow events related to tropical cyclones. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 00:54, 26 December 2025 (UTC)

Zeta is another one (both it and I think another shortwave that was partially associated with it as well), FYI. MarioProtIV (^talk/_contribs) 02:10, 26 December 2025 (UTC)

Politics of tropical cyclones- Could cover censorship of tropical cyclones, also instances in which Hurricane Hunters couldn't enter tropical cyclones due to them being located in forbidden Cuban airspace (such as Hurricane Alberto (1982))
- Also, naming, global warming, naming between warning centers (Hubert in SWIO, Yemyin), disaster debauchery (Katrina/Nargis), overall RSMC borders. ♬♩ Hurricanehink (talk) 15:04, 29 March 2010 (UTC)
  - Intresting article - i guess it could also cover when Tc's have had their designations removed by an agency. (ie TC 01U 2007-08}Jason Rees (talk) 16:32, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

No, due to lack of good info. Hurricane Eric

Agreed. It should just have a part in the deadly hurricanes page. Hurricanehink

Scratch what I said. It's one of the most recent 1,000+ death Atlantic storms. --♬♩ Hurricanehink (talk) 02:33, 5 April 2010 (UTC)

I will probably create this article soon. SMB9 9thx my edits 05:58, 11 October 2020 (UTC)

I won't give my time to build this as I am very busy. @LowercaseGuy: I've seen that you worked on 1860's storms lately, you can work on this one. Mario Jump 83! 09:58, 30 April 2021 (UTC)

I'm not sure if Central Pacific tropical cyclones should be created. SMB9 9thx my edits! 04:37, 6 December 2020 (UTC)

Storms

Hurricane Katrina (1967)
- Probably too far back, although it'd be a nice April Fools TFA if we had enough info. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 18:27, 22 July 2011 (UTC)
- There is quite a bit of info, this was a significant system. Y E ^Pacific ^Hurricane
- Significant system, should have an article. Titoxd^{(?!? - cool stuff)} 04:29, 8 August 2011 (UTC)
Hurricane Olivia (1967)
- Might not have enough info, but very unusual.
There is also the 1931 Santa Rosalía hurricane, which killed over 100 people per , although it might be too early to do effectively. Miss Madeline | Talk to Madeline 19:27, 22 July 2011 (UTC)
Yea, I remember seeing that on the project request page, and I'm precisely worried about the time period. Then again, this had no problem finding information, although I do feel that Atlantic-side Mexican storms have more info. --♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 20:55, 22 July 2011 (UTC)

Typhoons in China - draft

There is a Draft:Typhoons in Zhejiang. However, after discussing with other project members, I believe China should be handled as a whole on a year to year basis, with splits by date, such as 2000-present. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 14:29, 4 October 2020 (UTC)
Hurricanehink, To save the work we have, i have moved the draft into what you have suggested. SMB9 9thx my edits 12:56, 8 October 2020 (UTC)

Thanks for both SMB99thx (talk · contribs)! ♫ Hurricanehink (talk)

Hurricanehink, Like China, i have moved the draft into what you have suggested. SMB9 9thx my edits 12:56, 8 October 2020 (UTC)

Typhoons in Micronesia (including Federated States of Micronesia, Palau, Kiribati, and Marshall Islands, but not Guam or Northern Marianas islands - see above)

Storms

Tropical Storm Maria (2000) - 72 deaths and $317 million in damage
Tropical Storm Hilda (1999) - the third significant tropical cyclone to affect the Malaysian state of Sabah, following Vamei and Greg.
Typhoon Rex (1998) - an erratic typhoon that needs its own article due to the long-lived state of the system. Killed 13 and caused moderate damage.
Tropical Storm Levi (1997) - killed 53 in the Philippines. Possibly more than that.
Tropical Storm Victor (1997) - killed 65 people (more than that, probably), and caused an estimated amount of $241 million worth of damages.
Typhoon Amber (1997) - caused $52 million, possibly caused deaths
Tropical Storm Frankie (1996) - caused 104 fatalities (more than that, probably) and caused $200 million worth of damages
Tropical Storm Marty (1996) - caused 125 fatalities, 104 missing
Tropical Depression 35W (1996) - caused 60 fatalities, $138 million in damage

From Hilda to 35W, these are the storms in my mind that need their own article.LowercaseGuy chow! 07:58, 21 April 2021 (UTC)

Typhoon Connie (1945) - U.S. military impact, importance
Typhoon Doris (1953) - impact on Hurricane Hunters?

Maria is the last Hurricanehink suggestion, while Connie and Doris had their marks on U.S. military history. Mario Jump 83! 06:15, 21 April 2021 (UTC)

Typhoon Yanni (1998)

I'll working on this by myself. Mario Jump 83! 06:15, 21 April 2021 (UTC)

These two are the last redirects that was touched by LTA Sidowpknbkhihj I believe could be turned into article. The next three, Eve (1999), Atsani (2015), and Nock-ten (2004) aren't really distinct. Mario Jump 83! 06:15, 21 April 2021 (UTC)

@Hurricanehink:, @Destroyeraa: I think the creation of these articles, even if they are stubs, could help to deny Sidowpknbkhihj socks from keep adding their versions of these topics into Wikipedia. Main MO of Sidowpknbkhihj socks are to translate their creations from Japanese Wikipedia into English Wikipedia (and their creations are generally typhoons that affected Japan) - and once they do, they won't expand these articles at all. Sometimes, these articles disregard WP:MOS, which led me to clean up some of these articles. If we create them and actually expand these creations, that can help denying them of their work. SMB9 9thx my edits 04:46, 4 October 2020 (UTC)

I agree most of these are doable articles, but we should aim for more than stubs to make them. Ideally they will have more content than what's in the season article (which should be easy, since most WPAC seasons are stubs). ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 14:29, 4 October 2020 (UTC)

@Hurricanehink:, thanks! Currently, i'm doing a project based on my preferences and your suggestion. SMB9 9thx my edits 13:47, 7 October 2020 (UTC)

Record breaking typhoons. SMB9 9thx my edits 01:34, 26 October 2020 (UTC)

These are China-impacting storms whose damages are widely reported enough to be available for an article. Mario Jump 83! 06:20, 21 April 2021 (UTC)

Typhoon Carmen (1960)

Largest eye, also damaging tropical storm in Korea. SMB9 9thx my edits 10:27, 31 October 2020 (UTC)

Typhoon Nat (1991)

Took an erratic track, its duration has enough history to have an article. SarikaHaimaParmaMolaveWelpring (talk) 03:02, 19 December 2022 (UTC)

Typhoon Irving (1979) Deadly system.
Typhoon Carla (1967) Deadly system and one of the wettest storms.
Typhoon Kit (1972) Very unusual system.
Typhoon Wilma (1952) Caused a Hurricane Hunter plane to crash.
Typhoon Querida (1946) Deadly an impactful system.
Typhoon Harriet (1959) Costly and unusually strong late season typhoon.
1905 Marshall Islands typhoon — Devastated Knox Atoll, 317 fatalities
Typhoon Hazen - retired after striking Saipan in 1981
Typhoon Pamela (1982) - retired after striking Guam in 1981

Pamela 1976 will probably be more significant.Jason Rees (talk) 13:33, 5 January 2026 (UTC)
