This SPECIFIC storm article clearly falls within the parameters of WP Taiwan. Thus, Taiwan's data (for the time being) most certainly is relevant. Note that I am still not including storm strength information from Taiwan, though I very well could. ludahai 魯大海 15:41, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
Is there a meterological term to describe the phenomenon where the typhoon has passed, but it continues raining for several days (sometimes up to a week) after the storm has left? In Chinese, it is called a 颱風尾巴 (Typhoon Tail). What is it called in English? Also, is this common or specific to places like Taiwan and others with similar typography (i.e. Japan and the Philippines.)
Also, I am gathering some information from Taiwanese news sources which I will incorporate into the body of the impact portion of the article later today or tomorrow. ludahai 魯大海 06:28, 19 August 2007 (UTC)
I am using English language citations as much as possible. Where I can't find sources in English, I will use Traditional Chinese citations (note: I don't read Simplified Chinese very well.) ludahai 魯大海 09:00, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
The infobox on this article calls Sepat a "Category 5 super typhoon", yet the infoboxes on these articles ( Chanchu, Haitang, Talim, Dianmu...ect) say Category 4/5 typhoon, not super typhoon. Which is correct? --- CWY2190 T C 18:48, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
I would guess that since Super Typhoon Status is only from JTWC and there info is not offical we should go for the second option Category 4/5 typhoon. Jason Rees 00:04, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
