Submission declined by Drdpw (talk). This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of weather events-related topics). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia. If you would like to continue working on the submission, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window. If you have not resolved the issues listed above, your draft will be declined again and potentially deleted.

• Comment: As there was limited coverage of Tropical Storm Pilar (2023), and, given that what coverage there was demonstrates that the storm did not have a significant impact on land, this tropical storm does not meet the notability of weather events guidelines. Further, the story of this storm is well-covered in the 2023 Pacific hurricane season article, and this draft contains no noteworthy information beyond what is already in the season article. For these reasons, a standalone page is not the best way to inform readers about this storm. Drdpw (talk) 01:35, 9 December 2023 (UTC)

Tropical Storm Pilar was an erratic and long-lived tropical storm that brought impact to Central America in October and November 2023. The nineteenth depression and sixteenth tropical storm of the quite active 2023 Pacific hurricane season, Pilar formed from the remnants of Atlantic Tropical Depression Twenty-One, which struck Nicaragua. Pilar formed off the coast of Nicaragua and Costa Rica before moving to the west and then east. It would move north for a little bit before a steering current sent it to the west. Shear stopped the storm from strengthening and it would go on to dissipate far away from the Baja California peninsula.

Pilar caused damage in Central America, with floods resulting in the deaths of three people in El Salvador, and one in Honduras. While Pilar was affecting Central America, another invest in the atlantic was as well.^[1] Damage from Pilar was estimated at $45 million USD.
