Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Weather lore
Self-nomination. Years of skywatching expertise, a stack of my own photos, and the magic of a coffee-fuelled all-nighter (it's been years since I did that) turned out an article I will hope help people plan their day. Comments/criticisms welcome. Denni 07:16, 2004 May 3 (UTC)
Object- no lead section and odd format. --mav 08:27, 3 May 2004 (UTC)- Am refactoring to create head. As far as format goes, given the nature of item-discussion writing, it of necessity cannot follow a typical article format. There must be a clear separation between each item-discussion unit, and the only thing I can think of is to reduce the amount of white space. However, this presents a problem in ensuring the graphics remain near the unit they are intended to illustrate. Suggestions welcome. Denni 22:42, 2004 May 3 (UTC)

Object for now. It is interesting and well-written and it has lots of interesting photographs, but it's overwikified (only wikify stuff that's important to the article) and it could use different sections than it has right now. Let me know once it's changed and I'll reconsider -Change to support, find changes (especially opening section) sufficient. MGM 14:24, May 3, 2004 (UTC)- There will be some minor section modifications. As it stands, the article has a head, a discussion about what constitutes weather and where it occurs, and true and false weather lore. (Thank you, eloquence.) I've also removed some wikification.
