[edit]

@Ajshul: I have now resubmitted the draft, with added citations and information. It now meets WP:EVENT (more citations and notable national coverage), WP:WILDFIRE-NOTE (as it meets the criterion of large areas of evacuations) and WP:DIVERSE (more diverse range of outlets reporting the event).

@Whistler441 The current name doesn't show up in any Google searches or in the sources listed. Is there a more widely used name for these bushfires? Ajshul talk 01:22, 28 December 2021 (UTC)

@Ajshul The bushfire started in Beechina, which was near to the more well-known area of Wooroloo. There was another bushfire in 2021 in Wooroloo, hence my reluctance to use that name. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2021_Wooroloo_bushfire. Unless I should include a disambiguation section, and use the name 2021 Wooroloo bushfire for the Beechina bushfire? The bushfire spread into Wooroloo from Beechina as well.

@Whistler441 Someone else will be re-reviewing the page, so if you'd like, you can move your comments to the Talk page of the draft so the next reviewer can see them. Regards! Ajshul talk 04:35, 28 December 2021 (UTC)
