(Not reviewing cus I did the GA review here) Flooding after a fire is fairly routine, so I'm not sure it meets the hook criteria. I suggest ALT1: ...that civilian operated drones twice forced aerial firefighting operations to stop on the Goodwin fire? CaptainEek ^{Edits Ho Cap'n!}⚓ 07:43, 4 January 2023 (UTC)

User:Vami IV I've mistyped Goodwin fire without the capital, and I'm gonna leave it like that for the second because it reminds me two things: why is the F capitalized? And regardless of whether its capitalized or not, the other title should be a redirect. CaptainEek ^{Edits Ho Cap'n!}⚓ 07:45, 4 January 2023 (UTC)

Title Case is the rule for wildfires, or so I've observed. –♠Vamí _IV†♠ 18:03, 4 January 2023 (UTC)

I was also going to use the fact that firefighting aircraft were grounded twice by civilian drones for this DYK, but it slipped my mind to get a nom up yesterday. –♠Vamí _IV†♠ 18:03, 4 January 2023 (UTC)

Overall: ALT0 passes WP:DYKCRIT 3a, but only barely, in my opinion. It sounds like both the author and the GA reviewer would prefer ALT1, so I strongly recommend it to the promoter over ALT0, with the following small copy-edits: ALT1.1:... that civilian-operated drones twice forced aerial firefighting operations to stop on the Goodwin Fire? -- Tamzin^{[cetacean needed]} (she|they|xe) 07:44, 10 January 2023 (UTC)
