I would strongly oppose using the SSHWS for the timeline since it is nothing, but a completely unofficial scale for the majority of the world.

The tropical systems in the table on the bottom of the page don't add up to the total storms if counted one by one on the page. The table has about 8 or 9 more systems counted, and I checked if it was because systems in 2018, from the 2018-19 seasons, were accidentally counted. I fixed that, but it still doesn't add up. So, either the table has too many or the page is missing some systems. Does someone want to help me figure out why they aren't adding up?

The Storm Tracks Image of this article is about a month or two outdated. There isn't any Hurricane Michael, Hurricane Walaka, Typhoon Yutu, etc.
Please fix!
Starting the discussion here. As stated in the Inconsistency in Tropical Storm Count section, Bolaven is considered to be a part of 2018 according to JMA and PAGASA. Further discussion on this topic will be here and no further edits will be made on this topic until a consensus is reached.

Jayab314: Okay... Ava can be included since
Meteo France didn't mark it as a TC until after New Year's. However, even though Bolaven is considered a part of the 2018 season, it should not be included here. It is only part of the 2018 season because it was named in January. The JMA marked it as a TC (was a tropical depression) on December 29 which makes it a 2017 TC.

Hurricane Noah: But what I don't understand is why it can't be a part of both. I simply thought since it formed in December, but dissipated in January, it should be considered part of both. It even says on
the actual Wikipedia page for Bolaven, "The system also spanned two calendar years, making it a part of both the 2017 and 2018 seasons." And the same argument can be made for Ava, so I believe both Ava and Bolaven are considered a 2018 TC.

Hurricane Noah: According to Hurricane Noah, Meteo France didn't name Ava until 2018. According to the
Bolaven Wikipedia page, Bolaven wasn't officially named by either PAGASA or JMA until January 1. Also, Bolaven didn't become a tropical depression until 18:00 UTC on January 1. Therefore, I say Ava and Bolaven are 2018 TCs.

Keep in mind the JTWC stuff does not matter one bit. "Forming as part of the 2017 Pacific typhoon season, the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) began tracking on a weak tropical depression that had developed about 172 km (107 mi) to the south-southwest of Palau on December 30, 2017" JMA is all that counts. Forget it... include them both on both pages. Make sure you show the full length of their existence in the timeline if you do.

The JMA counts it as a part of the 2018 Season hence the 1801 designation not 17XX and I personally would prefer to see it in both articles but only counted towards 2018.

Owen
In the article, it claims Owen lasted for 30 days, yet the info for Owen ends on December 20 0:00 and starts on November 29. This does not add up to 30; it adds up to 21. Why? — Preceding

Acyclonxe: Yes, All Australian region TL's will link to the November one because we cannot specify which one we want to link to. The code just links it to the first TL which is the November one. No way of fixing it unless we change the names of the TL's to TL 1, TL 2, etc. or we just link each Australian TL to the article and not to the specific section.

To link to a specific system you are allowed to add the following characters to the end of the URL _2 _3 etc and no we are not assigning numbers to the TL's for the reaon they were removed:

Since I was the one who added it, I simply merged it. We need people to fill out these sections and do it properly as the article is currently far from complete.
