[edit] Delete all agencies from template

I propose the removal of all agencies from this template. Otherwise, what is the limitation on which agency is included or excluded? MrBell ^(talk) 19:09, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

Agreed. There is no way a list like this could ever be exhaustive with a worldwide article with agencies/departments that have varying amounts of wildfire suppression interaction. Maybe a list of coordination groups like NIFC in different countries might be a replacement but then you might run into the same problem. Beantwo (talk) 00:50, 14 April 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Tactics & equipment

Hotshots should be removed before agencies. It is not a tactic or equipment. Beantwo (talk) 05:07, 8 March 2009 (UTC)

Could a new section titled "personnel" be formed with Hotshot and Smokejumper? MrBell ^(talk) 19:34, 25 March 2009 (UTC)

Sounds good. Do it. It's just that those make up an incomplete list. I've been thinking about doing a "handcrew" page but I can't think of much that would extend it past a stub in length. Also, helitack and rappellers would fall under two categories in the infobox after this change. Beantwo (talk) 00:43, 14 April 2009 (UTC)
