Surely, sholdnt be merged. In fact, wildfire and reserve are event and place, for examplem, athe article about res4erve couldn't be placed to"wildfires" category, and so on...--Üñţïf̣ļëŗ (see also:ә? Ә!) 14:59, 24 August 2008 (UTC)
Possible original research
[edit]The article states:
The wildfire occured during the aerial bombardment of Georgia's territory by the Russian Air Force in the 2008 South Ossetia war
After reading the article, and then all of the sources carefully, I can find nothing that verifies this statement. If the fire started on 15 August, and according to 2008 South Ossetia war and Timeline of the 2008 South Ossetia war, the aerial strikes of targets by Russia had by that time ceased.
The only thing that comes anywhere close is http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/7567279.stm which states:
"Russian jets have bombed military bases and ports during the conflict but Russia's Defence Ministry has denied bombing the forests."
This statement does not qualify the statement, because it simply says that the Russian jets bombed military bases and ports during the conflict, but they denied bombing the forest. It mentions nothing about the wildfire occuring during the "aerial bombardment of Georgia". It is a case of WP:SYN, due to very vague wording by the BBC. It needs an explicit source before the OR and POV and fact tags can be removed. --Russavia Dialogue 11:02, 29 January 2009 (UTC)
- Your move to eliminate any mention of the Russo-Georgian war does not hold any water as most media reports view the event in the war contxet.
"Included in the toll of the recent fighting between the Republic of Georgia and Russia are damages from forest fires in one of Europe’s largest national parks and the communities and natural areas surrounding it. Forest fires broke out in and around Georgia’s Borjomi-Kharagauli National Park, part of the Caucasus biodiversity hotspot, during the hostilities sparked by a dispute over the separatist Georgian region of South Ossetia."
[1] (Conservation International)
"PAN Parks Foundation regrets to hear about the conflict in Georgia... PAN Parks Foundation is also concerned about the environmental damages caused by the war. A recent bombing in Borjomi district resulted in a forest fire, which threatens Borjomi Kharagauli National Park."
"This week the OSCE and the United Nations Environmental Programme (UNEP) are in Georgia to conduct a joint five-day mission to assess the environmental impact of the recent conflict... The OSCE-UNEP mission will assess the damage caused by fire, including in the Borjomi-Kharagauli National Park and adjacent forested areas."
