Per
WP:NOTNEWS, run-of-the-mill fire that is of no long-lasting importance other than to the local community. There are probably tens of such fires a week around the world.

Keep. There have been more developments since the fire, as shown in a Google News search. I added some references. Eastmain (

Keep The fire was in August 2018, there was still significant coverage through to December 2018, in particular
for example, which shows very significant in-depth core coverage by a highly reliable source. Coverage and reporting is still occuring at least as recently as
February 2019. Given the nature of the fire, revelations to-date, there is almost certainly more to come. This subject is neither a single event nor contemporaneous news.

Keep as
Eastmain has improved the article with more references giving credibility to its notability.

Keep This was by no means a "run-of-the-mill fire" - The Age called it "one of the worst industrial blazes in decades"
[1]. The article as it was when it was nominated for deletion did not show the seriousness of the fire, or the investigations it led to into illegal storage of toxic chemicals. It appears the creator started the article in September 2018, and then no-one added to it. There is plenty more that could be added - I will also try to do so, as other editors have too.

Keep as per
RebeccaGreen. It could definitely be improved. There's been many updates since.
