Will claim this for review and hope to finish with it soon. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 06:56, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Article was created on time and is free from close paraphrasing. The hook is cited inline in the article, meets DYKINT, and is verified in the source. The statement about structures being wrapped in protective foil is not stated by text in the source, but pictures are shown which do show foil, so that works for me. Several statements cited to the Wenatchee World article are not in the current version of the article, such as the mention of Team 13. In addition, the article says that the fire may have "originated from a human-caused structure fire", but The Seattle Times only mentioned that the fire was "human-caused" with no mention of structures; the sentence also uses the Wenatchee World as a source and that too does not mention a "structure". A QPQ has also yet to be provided.

I also have to note that the Wildfire.gov link gives me a 403 Forbidden error, but I'm not sure if it's down or if it's inaccessible outside the US. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 07:33, 14 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@SounderBruce and Narutolovehinata5: Archived copy of that source. This should probably be added to the article.--Laun chba ller 10:09, 15 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, that definitely has to be resolved in addition to the other sourcing issues. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 14:46, 15 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Narutolovehinata5: The confusion seems to be from my use of the Seattle Times reprint of the story, which I have added. The InciWeb profile works for me in the U.S., so it is probably blocked in certain countries. QPQ has also been added. Sounder Bruce 01:46, 17 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, I think that satisfies all my concerns. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 09:11, 18 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
