  • Symbol question.svg Template:Ping When was this article moved to mainspace? It's a bit hard to tell with the history merge. Also, while this is a style issue beyond the scope of DYK, it would be nice to break up the "Meteorological history" section into paragraphs. John P.

  • Moved on August 12. --evrik (talk) 02:12, 21 August 2020 (UTC)
  • Symbol question.svg Template:Ping Okay! Long and new enough, within policy, QPQ done, Earwig finds no copyvios. Source does not confirm hook fact. Also, it would be nice to have a more interesting hook, though the article as written is kind of dry. The concept of a "mesoscale trochoidal oscillation" caught my eye. Is this unusual? Might make a good hook. John P. Sadowski (NIOSH) (talk) 22:30, 21 August 2020 (UTC)
  • Template:Ping It's better to paste the line {{subst:DYKproblem|Typhoon Yancy (1990)|header=yes|sig=yes}} on the user talk pages than rely on pings. I've just left this notification on the nominator's talk page. Yoninah (talk) 23:48, 23 August 2020 (UTC)
  • The original hook is taken from the lede. I have edited the "Impacts" section of the article to document that hook. --evrik (talk) 17:10, 24 August 2020 (UTC)
Template:Ping I still don't see it. The cited source [1] lists "Most Destructive Tropical Cyclones for the Month of November (1948-2000)" which isn't relevant. John P. Sadowski (NIOSH) (talk) 01:54, 26 August 2020 (UTC)

  • Alt1 ... that in August 1990, what would eventually develop into Typhoon Yancy (pictured) began as a low-level convective center on the eastern side of a monsoon depression?1990 Annual Tropical Cyclone Report (PDF). Joint Typhoon Warning Center. p. 105.
Template:Ping Here is another try. --evrik (talk) 05:06, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
Template:Ping The source still doesn't verify the fact. It says that Ruping caused more deaths than Yancy, but doesn't say that Ruping was the only storm that year to do so. ALT1 is uninteresting, unless there's a reason that development pattern is unusual. I still find the trochoidal oscillations interesting; more information can be found at e.g. [2]. I'm thinking something like the following. John P. Sadowski (NIOSH) (talk) 14:58, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
  • Symbol redirect vote 4.svg I'm okay with Alt2. Asking for another reviewer to approve Alt2. --evrik (talk) 15:11, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
Symbol confirmed.svg Deferring to previous on requirements, the hook is accurate and soured. I duplicated the source to the relevant sentence and added page numbers. CMD (talk) 02:38, 27 August 2020 (UTC)
