[edit]

I must please ask you to either stop skipping advisories when updating my uploads, or notify me whenever it is needed to be updated. There is no point in keeping the file at all if it will just be left with a bad, incomplete history. When you leave it in such a state, someone looking for whatever version (done through the Commons categorization system as it is simpler than to use a search engine or something else to look up the NHC's archive) will not actually be able to access it, and attempting to directly download the desired advisory (from the NHC website) may be more difficult than obtaining it from Commons as I have to access each new advisory from the NHC's archive loop whenever updating a file. Also, you are using the lesser quality file whenever you are trying to update it, I should say (on File:11E 2014 5day.gif, you uploaded the 500 × 400 image rather than the 895 × 716 image). I know this isn't how it has been done in the past, but in my opinion, many of the past storm advisory files (say for some random EPac storm last year) had been done terribly, sometimes with only 3 out of about 45 advisories actually uploaded. One such instance was File:04E 2013 5day.gif, but I have now corrected it. This would be easier if each individual advisory's graphic was uploaded separately (I don't believe that they would take up any more space on Commons than they do now where they are just uploaded atop one another), but I doubt anyone else would care enough (they aren't really ever on Commons). Really though, I hate the idea of keeping a virtually useless file on Commons, the main reason I am going on about this in the first place. Please understand; thanks.
