Just a quick note, I'm going to review this article but before I do, I would like the references to be fixed. Due to the recent error with webcite, most of the references in the article deadlink and since both the JTWC and RSMC Nadi archive their advisories so you should be able to get them.

I like this article for the most part, but I have a few "minor" fixes until I feel that it is upto GA standards.

1. Over the next few days, the depression moved towards the southeast through the Fijian archipelago until late on April 3, when the Regional Specialized Meteorological Center in Nadi reported that the depression had intensified into a category one cyclone, and named it as Cyclone Lin whilst the JTWC did not start issuing warnings on Lin until the next day as it was approaching its 10-minute peak windspeeds of 110 km/h (65 mph) and 1-minute peak windspeeds of 95 km/h (60 mph). Is there anyway that you could break that up into multiple sentences?

1. Cyclone Lin then reached its peak windspeeds early on April 5 as it passed directly over Tonga and then later that day as it approached the edge of RSMC Nadi's area of responsibility Lin started to go through an extratropical transition with the JTWC issuing their last advisory on it. Same as above

1. Late on April 3, RSMC Nadi reported that the depression had intensified into a category one cyclone, on the Australian tropical cyclone intensity scale and named it as Lin whilst it was relocated to about 135 km (85 mi) to the south-west of Niuafo'ou. what was relocated?

These are the few "minor" fixes that need to be done before being passed. -- An ha mi rak 20:22, 15 August 2009 (UTC) reply

I wrote this article back in 2009 when I thought that all named tropical storms were worthy of an article. However, I no longer hold that opinion and after rewriting this article over the last few days, I now feel that there isnt any information out there that the season article cant hold. As a result, I am requesting a merger. Jason Rees ( talk) 00:23, 18 April 2019 (UTC) reply

• Merge. A lot of the content was on warnings or minor damage. It looks like you got the important info, but make sure you didn't miss anything before we merge this. ♫ Hurricanehink ( talk) 13:20, 18 April 2019 (UTC) reply
• Merge Not enough damage (including insinuated damage) and deaths to warrant an article. Storm didn't set any records, so I must also agree on merge at this time. Noah ^Talk 21:59, 18 April 2019 (UTC) reply
• Merged and delisted as a GA. Jason Rees ( talk) 17:05, 22 December 2019 (UTC) reply
