This topic is already featured. It is also being re-nominated to remove items which are no longer part of the topic. See
Wikipedia:Featured topic candidates/Retired Pacific hurricanes for the archived discussion of the topic's successful nomination. The removed items are:
The tropical cyclone Wikiproject had a discussion
link, and we came to the agreement that two articles in the topic (Fico and Fefa) should not be considered retired Pacific hurricane names. We got confirmation from the
National Hurricane Center that they were likely not retired. I'm not sure how to remove items from a topic, but I hope I did this right. If there is a problem, then I can omit the two removals for this topic addition.
Comment - I note that both of the removed articles still say that they're names are retired and have the retired hurricanes template at the bottom. It should be consistent. --PresN18:11, 4 June 2009 (UTC)reply
Actually, per the project agreement, I removed the template and info saying those two were retired. The data we have available do not confirm its retirement, rather that it was only removed, and the email we got from the NHC leans toward the names being removed, not retired. ♬♩

Ah, I was waiting for someone to bring that up. I contacted the author earlier today, asking he remove Fefa and Fico, and add Alma. It is forthcoming, but I hope the image is not a major issue for this nomination. ♬♩

TBH, I didn't think it would be an issue. It's an image that is in the process of being changed. The accompanying image isn't an FT requirement, so it shouldn't be much of a concern. ♬♩

A strong objection for something that is being taken care of? The above vote can't really be addressed, so I don't think it should be counted. ♬♩

Comment You should come up with another name for that section Lists of retired names. There are more than that, but that section just covers the ones retired due to damages. You should also note that in the template.

Support. The nomination process can take a week or two, and by then the picture should be up (right?), and no one should have any further objections. —Goodtimber (walk/talk)18:05, 5 June 2009 (UTC)reply
