2004 Atlantic hurricane season

(Self-nom) I'm not trying to stuff the box with hurricane articles here, but this IS a good article, and I promise the last I will nominate for a while. The only thing I can really think it's lacking are references, but really, there are few things to reference. All roads lead back to the NHC, and NHC links are spread liberally throughout the article. I'll try to find a link for Gray's forecast, but beyond that, I think it's pretty good as-is. --Golbez 09:01, May 20, 2005 (UTC)

Object. No references. See Wikipedia:Cite sources. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus ^Talk 20:30, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Can you elaborate? Every storm has NHC links; Gray's forecast is linked at the bottom (and I may make a footnote); and the major storms have references in their own articles. What exactly is lacking a reference? --Golbez 21:50, May 21, 2005 (UTC)
It's mostly a formatting issue. You need to mention the NHC links in a seperate reference section. Mgm|^(talk) 11:37, May 22, 2005 (UTC)
- I disagree, that would create a huge Reference section that helps no one. External links has a link to the NHC and should (if it doesn't now it will soon) have a link to the NHC's 2004 page, and each storm has the proper links. How would moving all of the reference links to a single section be useful? --Golbez 22:35, May 22, 2005 (UTC)
  - Er, unless you mean simply mention them, which can be done. :) --Golbez 23:37, May 22, 2005 (UTC)
    - I've all the references I can think of; I'll concatenate them in an end section later today. Requesting more comments. --Golbez 17:55, May 23, 2005 (UTC)

Support. Although it still needs a reference section which simply describes the sources, this can be done with little problem. I've thought that this article was worthy of a nomination for a while, I just never got around to nominating it myself. bob rulz 01:08, May 25, 2005 (UTC)
