Calfire Soberanes page

The Calfire incident page for this was http://cdfdata.fire.ca.gov/incidents/incidents_details_info?incident_id=1348 . However, that page has frequently been blank, and I now find that Calfire has, on its incidents page changed to link to http://calfireinformation.weebly.com/soberanes-fire-updates.html . I realize this is odd; Weebly seems to be an ordinary website hosting company. However, with CalFire itself pointing to it, and the unreliability of the cdfdata.fire.ca.gov-hosted page, I'm updating the article to use the Weebly site.

I'm noting this here in case it turns out to be a temporary move by CalFire, and we need to go back to the prior URL. TJRC (talk) 16:02, 31 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

...And, as soon as I typed the above comment, the page started working again. I'll add this as an EL for now, instead. TJRC (talk) 16:07, 31 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@TJRC: HAHAHAHAHA!!!! Thank you for that... Your stream of thought cracked me up this morning. :-p From what I can tell, CalFire is working on a rolling out a new page. The Weebly page is new this season. Hopefully it will become more stable as they make improvements. Thanks for noting it here!! --Zackmann08 (^{Talk to me}/_{What I been doing}) 19:15, 31 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

What counts as a "building"?

What gets counted in the "building" parameter in the infobox? Outbuildings? Damaged but not destroyed?

Please see the discussion at Template talk:Infobox wildfire#Buildings count and opine. Since this affects multiple articles in which this template is transcluded, please comment there. TJRC (talk) 16:25, 1 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Unified command moved to US Forest Service

Just a heads-up, unified command of the firefighting effort has been moved from CalFire to the US Forest Service, since most of the fire is now on federal national forest land. (I'm not sure whether that mostly represents a reduction of fire on California state land, or an accumulated increase on the federal land.) In any event, the Calfire Soberanes site is no longer being updated; its last update was four days ago. The equivalent federal site appears to be the Inciweb page; that's where this US Forest Service news alert links, for example. TJRC (talk) 20:54, 30 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
