I disagree with how the split was handled earlier, but I think so splitting is needed. In my opinion, the New York section should be split off immediately, since that has the most info. Perhaps New Jersey as well. Any thoughts? ♫ Hurricanehink ( talk) 01:35, 19 February 2012 (UTC)
Based on order of damage and fatalities, here is my opinion:
For non-US impacts, here is my opinion:

Effects of Hurricane Irene is a viable article, so I have restored that for the time being. It's an article that goes into detail on the effects of the hurricane, and would allow the Impact section in the main article to be trimmed to a summary. This is in line with WP:Article size and WP:Summary style. This would still allow Effects of Hurricane Irene in New England to be created, with links to that article from a summary in Effects of Hurricane Irene#New England and the reduced but still present sub-section in Hurricane Irene#New England.
Just out of curiosity Hurricanehink, why are the sections called Impact, while the articles are called Effects of? SilkTork ✔Tea time 13:56, 19 April 2012 (UTC)

Now we can move this to Hurricane Irene. No other names retired this year. CrazyC83 ( talk) 15:05, 13 April 2012 (UTC)
Hi everyone,
I was scrolling through this article and I noticed that in the 'Impacts' section, there are multiple sub-headings that do not have any information linked to them. This includes the areas titled 'Southeast' and 'New England'.
Thanks, -- Chrisa24 ( talk) 07:15, 10 October 2016 (UTC)
@ Hurricanehink: I don't know why "(2011)" was removed other than one source per summary edit: http://www.noaanews.noaa.gov/stories2012/20120413_irene.html. Also, the RM in 2011 resulted in "no consensus". Is this "Hurricane Irene" the primary topic? -- George Ho ( talk) 11:08, 15 February 2017 (UTC)
Oh... didn't see #Retired, which resulted in the informal move. George Ho ( talk) 11:09, 15 February 2017 (UTC)
I added the following section under the Turks and Caicos and the Bahamas section (edit 792750243), but it was removed a month later by an anonymous mobile user who tagged their edit with "irrelevant" (edit 797951830).
Rather than get into an edit war, I thought it best to discuss here on the talk page, particularly given the recent news coverage of other famous people being affected by the 2017 hurricane season (e.g. Richard Branson on Necker Island, Hurricanes Irma and Maria). My question is not about whether such coverage is notable enough for Wikipedia - it clearly meets that standard if it's published in national media. Famous people generate news and discussion (just do an internet search for "Branson + Hurricane") and damage to Richard Branson's house is included in the Hurricane Irma article. So what should be the standard for relevance? Wikiwayman ( talk) 14:00, 3 October 2017 (UTC)
