* Quick comment: I was wanting to review the [[climate change]] content here. It seems to be missing; would be good to at have half a sentence mentioning that it's affecting the fire regime in the South-West of the US. Saying it's natural is missing half of the picture. A quick Google Scholar search [https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0925857421003682?casa_token=my-xr3jNhMUAAAAA:lkkGMVgTONEXMx5AWCbsAbojAb2b5kZJxT34RG_kGQH0p-d_ikAgbxcmvN4xN5TqJfS9FL7AJg found a paper about something obscure to do with this fire's ecological impact], mentioning this as key background in the introduction. A higher-quality source about the climate impacts (but not mentioning this one) is the [[Fifth National Climate Assessment]] ([https://nca2023.globalchange.gov/chapter/focus-on-2/ section about wildfires in the west]) [[User:Femke|—Femke 🐦]] ([[User talk:Femke|talk]]) 19:55, 6 February 2024 (UTC)

*:Ahh, thank you for finding these. The news sources on which I depend don't really ever mention this stuff. &ndash;[[User:Vami_IV|<span style="background:crimson; color:white; padding:2px;">♠Vamí</span>]][[User talk:Vami_IV|<span style="background:black; color:white; padding:2px;">_IV†♠</span>]] 04:19, 7 February 2024 (UTC)

This article is about another Arizona wildfire from 2017, a busy year. In this particular fire, high winds, high temperatures, low/no humidity, and the crispy remnants of a fire 17 years before were combined by lightning into a blaze that scorched almost 18,000 acres of the Coconino National Forest. Also, this is another really short article at 828 words as of time of writing. –♠Vamí_IV†♠ 04:46, 6 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
