Title

Should this soon-to-be article's title be changed to simply Hurricane Beryl, without the year (i.e., Draft:Hurricane Beryl)? I think this year's iteration of Beryl will meet the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC criteria once it gets moved to the main space, given the anticipation of its impacts in the Lesser Antilles and the rest of the Caribbean.

Given that this storm will clearly meet primary topic criteria, the title should become Hurricane Beryl when this draft is moved to main space. Drdpw (talk) 16:30, 30 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
BTW, the title 'Hurricane Beryl' exists as a redirect to List of storms named Beryl. Drdpw (talk) 16:45, 30 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I published the article as "Hurricane Beryl (2024)", since there was another hurricane named Beryl. The discussion is only a tad bit premature. I can hope all I want, but what I say isn't going to affect the storm. If the storm becomes significantly more notable than the 2018 Hurricane Beryl, then at that time it will get the main article. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 00:44, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for publishing the article! Regarding the matter of naming, I had anticipated that the page would linger in draft space longer, until the storm had interacted with land and people. Cheers. Drdpw (talk) 01:10, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Beryl has struck Carriacou with 150 mph winds and is already confirmed to have caused significant damage to the island and other islands in the Grenadines, based on various livestreams. This clearly sticks out from the 2018 Beryl and will probably be retired next spring, so it shouldn't have the year anymore. Rye998 (talk) 15:41, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move 1 July 2024

Hurricane Beryl (2024)Hurricane Beryl – This hurricane is clearly more notable than Hurricane Beryl (2018) and is only going to be increasing in notability as time goes on. ✶Quxyz 16:43, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support – virtually unprecedented storm and has attracted much media attention moreso then 2018. MarioProtIV (talk/contribs) 16:58, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support - I agree with everything MarioProtIV said. 24.115.255.37 (talk) 17:24, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support It's unlikely to be retired, but regardless is clearly more notable than the 2018 storm, both for impacts and records (not to say that the 2018 storm wasn't also somewhat exceptional). Somewhat relatedly, a good system for determining the primary topic when it comes to duplicate-named storms should definitely be worked on. AveryTheComrade (talk) 17:26, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
