Moonlight Fire as a Current Event

Not sure why this wouldn't qualify as a current event - it's ongoing, it's receiving widespread media coverage, and the situation changes from day to day. Is there some way to narrow it down to "California Current Events," perhaps? If not, maybe there should be ... Kmmontandon 00:18, 11 September 2007 (UTC) reply

See Template:Current#Guidelines. If you desire the article about the occasion to receive wider visibility, perhaps you could nominate it for inclusion at the various Portal:Current events listings. Take a look at Wikipedia:How_the_Current_events_page_works. Basically, when many editors are editing some wildly popular article, the tag serves as a warning to editors. It was not intended to say "look--this is news." Otherwise several hundred thousand articles would qualify for the template. If the Moonlight Fire article comes to the point of having say 25+ editors on it in a day, by all means, add the template back. -- Yellowdesk 00:32, 11 September 2007 (UTC) reply

Thanks much for stepping in on the GA effort on this one! After 2 noms, I decided to step back and take a breather on this article while working on some major overhauls to aerial firefighting related articles. A fresh imagination and set of eyes is exactly what this effort needed. AKRadecki Speaketh 23:22, 25 September 2007 (UTC) reply

Greetings

Just stopping by to say hi to a fellow northern Californian and to say thank you for improving Caribou Willderness article. I go too fast and leave out much-but sm trying to work on that editorial defect ;) Cheers Marcia Wright ( talk) 06:48, 10 April 2009 (UTC) reply

Northern boundary of the Sierra

Thanks for asking about it. If you look at the Forest Service ecological map or the geographic map from peakbagger, perhaps "northern boundary" is the wrong term. It's the northenmost point of the Sierra --- there is a short northwestern boundary, and a very long eastern boundary. I'll try to rephrase. — hike395 ( talk) 02:43, 7 August 2010 (UTC) reply

The article itself doesn't talk about the northern boundary --- implicitly it only talks about the northernmost point. So, it is correct as-is, as far as I can tell. — hike395 ( talk) 04:09, 7 August 2010 (UTC) reply
