Tas fires[edit]

I've just added today's fire in the Forcett/Dunalley area in Tassie. Unfortunately I'm in Melbourne on an iPad so my editing speed and capability is rather slow. Please be kind if there are any typos or formatting issues! -- Chuq (talk) 08:07, 4 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Just an interesting obs is the temp in Dunalley which got up to 59.9°C when the fire passed by but will not be counted as a max nor a record by the BoM. But listening to ABC Hobart, unconfirmed report of one death but TAS Police haven't stated it and are looking to find the source of the info and confirm whether it is fact or rumour.

Great work, thanks Bidgee! I notice an article has also been created specifically for these fires - 2013 Tasmanian bushfires -- Chuq (talk) 06:24, 7 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Victoria fires[edit]

Fires currently going in the south-west of Victoria (Drik Drik) should be added for the January section--Mjs1991 (talk) 08:47, 7 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Done.--Melburnian (talk) 10:13, 9 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Organisation of regions and months[edit]

I have noticed that under 'Fire by states or territory', the states and territories are listed with sub-headings for each month. But below that, there are new sections for each month. I think this should be fixed—so is the recommended approach to list each state and territory with sub-headings for each month, or sections for each month with sub-headings for each state and territory?
