Unlike all the other articles in the template, this links to a hotel article not one on a fire that took place at a hotel. The fire is a small bit of the hotel's history. If you want to put Rossiya in the template, write a separate article about the fire like there is with the Winecoff and put that in the template.

For resources about the Rossiya fire go here. [1] There are plenty of sources for an independent article. Just enter Rossiya fire and start composing.- William 17:46, 20 December 2011 (UTC) reply

The article Winecoff Hotel fire was only created yesterday, after I created Template:Hotel fires on 16 December. Before then there only was an article called Winecoff Hotel. Seems a bit like changing the rules while the game is still being played. I've reverted the change. S_peakF_ree ^(talk)_{( contribs)} 23:24, 20 December 2011 (UTC) reply

I see that "Mass casualty" has just been removed by @ Moondragon21 and I have no problem with that. Do we want this template to include every single hotel fire article on Wikipedia, or do we want to set some sort of inclusion criteria. Personally I think a fire in which less than five people die is not noteworthy, I would even question whether such an event even merited its own article.

At the moment the two groups look like the fires are sorted randomly. They are mostly sorted in date order, but there is no (year) added after each one which would make the sort order more obvious. I would propose that we either do that, or we sort in name order. 10mmsocket ( talk) 17:00, 2 June 2023 (UTC) reply
