System had minimal impacts, immediately failing WP:GNG. If it weren't a good article, I'd propose it for speedy deletion. If anyone can find any sources that show that it did bring actual impacts to the Lesser Antilles, I'd happily revoke the discussion.

• Merge to 2001 Atlantic hurricane season. The sourcing in this article is abysmal—it's just a regurgitation of reports with no secondary or historical analysis whatsoever—and a few searches didn't turn up significant coverage either. To have a standalone article, this needs significant coverage independent of contemporary reporting and routine listing. Flux55, for future reference, WP:PROD is the procedure for something that's clearly non-notable, speedy deletion is for specific circumstances. And regarding GA, this could probably be delisted anyway because GA requires compliance with WP:OR, including WP:PRIMARY. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 17:20, 24 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  @Thebiguglyalien: This is a big issue mostly with the older GAs. I plan to launch a project to go over all the weather GAs to ensure they still meet the criteria or even if they deserve an article to begin with. As far as this specific one goes, I would say Merge & Redirect due to failing on notability grounds. I would refrain from delisting this until a consensus emerges here. Then it could simply be stated in the article history that the delist occurred at AfD due to consensus. Noah, AA^Talk 15:05, 25 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Merge & Redirect as there was limited coverage of the storm, and it had no apparent impact; Jerry '01 simply does not meet the notability of weather events guidelines. Drdpw (talk) 15:19, 25 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Merge, as I have felt was appropriate since 2007, when I said (on the talk page) - My biggest question is whether there is any more impact. If there is, then the preps and impact should remain separate. If not (which I consider unlikely but possible), then merging would be alright. Well, that impact appears to be some light rainfall, gusty winds, and some watches/warnings, none of which were significant enough to flesh out into significant detail. I believe that all of the content in the article can be merged easily into the season article. It doesn't really need a three paragraph met history, for instance. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 20:10, 25 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  Since everyone agrees that it should be merged, should this discussion be closed? ''Flux55'' (talk) 16:22, 27 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  It will be closed after seven days by an admin as long as there is a clear consensus. Noah, AA^Talk 02:56, 28 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
