We had wildfires in Wichita County the week before Christmas. I'm a little worried this article is following the media's lead, which was slow to pick up the story. I guess I now know what people in Florida feel like. -Acjelen 04:31, 31 December 2005 (UTC)
- How serious? If they are part of the same event, they should be mentioned here if sources can be found. Threats remain for more this weekend, which is why it remains a current event. There have been many other fires; the site has only mentioned the main ones - so far. CrazyC83 04:33, 31 December 2005 (UTC)

- Main ones according to whom? We have three fires hundreds of miles away from each other. If these fires are noteworthy examples of a larger phenomenon including other fires, then that should be made plain, but the parameters of our subject should not be determined by the press. -Acjelen 05:18, 31 December 2005 (UTC)

- From what I understand, Texas, Oklahoma and New Mexico are all under drought conditions. (In addition, all of Texas has been declared a disaster area.) The fires, whether caused by humans or not all are aided by drought. Also, there are a number of fires that aren't listed. Orville Eastland 02:56, 4 January 2006 (UTC)
