Here's the Planet Ceres Atlantic hurricane naming list for 1990 you wanted. -- Dylan620 ( talk) 21:06, 30 September 2008 (UTC)
May I help edit the 1990 season? I had a lot of fun helping you with 1995. Dy la n 6 20 22:27 UTC September 30, 2008
Okay, um, since it's taken you a while to respond, I'll go ahead and create the 1984 Planet Ceres Atlantic Hurricane season to pass the time (remember, I made up Planet Ceres, so I can make hurricane seasons, too). Feel free to drop by when you're ready to get back to work on the 1990 and 1995 seasons. Dy la n 6 20 Life story 21:14 UTC October 1, 2008
i will soon create the Pacific Seasons. I also start the 2002 Atlantic season Can you fix the Ike infobox.-- Leave Message or Yellow Evan home 18:49, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
Welcome to wikipedia.Your edit to my Ike page was reverted. Blanking a page to something thats not in your page is one thing . Evan worse, Blanking a page in someone's user page is another thing. If you continue to do this you could be blocked from editing. By blanking a page it hurts my feelings.Please apologize.

Hey Elena85. I was wondering if you would like me to "adopt" you, and help you learn how to become a better Wikipedia editor, overall. If so, drop me a note on my talk page, and I'll set aside a separate page for it. Cheers, – Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone 20:48, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
We just lost everything we had going about the 1990 Planet Ceres Atlantic hurricane season because you redirected it. I think it's possible to salvage the work, but next time, please be more careful; I worked very hard on Hurricanes Clyde and Dot, which were both virtually deleted by the redirect.

Storm of the month
Hurricane Ike was among the costliest Atlantic hurricanes on record, based on a preliminary damage estimate of $31.5 billion ( USD). The ninth named storm, fifth hurricane, and third major hurricane of the 2008 season, Ike developed on September 1 in the tropical Atlantic Ocean. Maintaining a generally westward track throughout its duration, Ike reached Category 4 status on the Saffir-Simpson scale, moving across the Turks and Caicos Islands at that intensity before weakening and crossing Cuba; heavy damage was reported in Cuba, which was still recovering from Hurricane Gustav just weeks prior. Gustav later moved across the Gulf of Mexico and struck near Galveston, Texas, where its effects were estimated as the costliest hurricane in Texas history. Further inland, the storm brought high winds and widespread damage, and its impact reached as far as Canada. Throughout its path, Gustav caused over 100 deaths, mostly in Texas and Haiti, and several hundred remain missing.

The September member of the month is CrazyC83, who has been a steady editor within the project for the past few years. Lately, the user's contributions include maintaining the current season articles, which is the biggest workload for the project. In the past, however, CrazyC83 was very active in writing articles, and was a proponent for all storms in the 2005 Atlantic hurricane season getting articles. Of note was his contributions to Hurricane Juan, which brought it to featured status and later to the main page.

Project News
Overall, the project has had a relatively uneventful month. One of the most noteworthy events was the selection of 32 tropical cyclone-related articles, that were
chosen as part of
Wikipedia 0.7. Wikipedia 0.7 is a collection of English Wikipedia articles due to be released on DVD, and available for free download, later this year. While many of the selected articles are of featured or good quality, several require substantial cleanup and expansion.
In other news, a handful of changes to project standards have taken place. Per a consensus on the project's talk page, the section of each tropical cyclone article previously entitled "Storm history" has been changed to "Meteorological history", thanks in part to Plasticup's bot which preformed the hundreds of edits to execute the change. In addition, a discussion is ongoing regarding the necessity of List of storms in the 2005 Atlantic hurricane season, and similar articles for other seasons.

I would like you to please do me a favor. I'm making a disambiguation page for tropical cyclones named Percy, and since you're on the disambiguation patrol, I was wondering if you could read it over and see if it's okay to create. The link to it is here.
Regarding the Wikia thing, I'm glad you found a solution. But I read your list, and found that it is missing an 'N' name. Which name do you prefer: Nicholas, Nicole, Nina, or Norbert? Or is the list meant to lack an 'N' name? I haven't made an account for Wikia yet, so I haven't made any edits there yet.
My message has the following post-scripts:
P.S.: I saw on the Planet Ceres category in Wikia that someone named Krosa09 made it. Is that you?
P.S.S.: I'm starting an article on Tropical Storm Norbert. Very stubby at the moment but it will significantly improve very soon.
P.S.S.S.: In your spare time, come play a game here.
Have fun on Wikia, and good luck on Wikipedia! -- Dylan620 ( talk) 12:00 UTC October 5, 2008
I've run into trouble trying to log in to Wikia. No matter what, I can't register! Please tell me how to register, otherwise I won't be able to join you on Wikia. It says that it can't create a registration at this time. Dy la n 6 20 Life story 16:43 UTC October 5, 2008

Hi Elena.
Just so you know ive commented out some of the Paramaters of the Main Season infobox so that we can have a readable article as otherwise the infobox for 01R moves all over the place. Jason Rees ( talk) 02:35, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
Hi Elena 85, the Emily of 1965 (or 1963)'s current version is more up-to-date than JTWC's version. NHC's HURDAT is a more reliable source than JTWC. JTWC's data is only useful for tropical depressions, that are cases that HURDAT don't have. - Ramisses ( talk) 19:09, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
Hi Elena! I was just wondering if you were planning on completing the GA review of Tropical Storm Lester (2004). It appears that you partially completed it, but never quite finished. If you don't want to finish the review, would you like me to do it? Drop me a note on my talk page, if you like! Dana boomer ( talk) 20:48, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
Hi Elena 85! It'll a slow process because I don't have much time (I make track maps one by one, it's not a automatic process), but be sure I'll make track maps for every storm of that season as soon as possible.
The first three are here:
