• Keep as Wikipedia glossary - it's already at Wiktionary. But Wiktionary glossaries aren't Wikipedia-linkified. That is, the entries in Wiktionary glossaries don't lead to Wikipedia articles. Wikipedia glossary entries do. Wikipedia articles are far superior to Wiktionary in scope of coverage, and therefore Wikipedia glossaries tend to pack more punch. Glossaries are an integral part of Wikipedia, and are an essential aid in learning terminology and for browsing the encyclopedia. Please stop trying to get rid of them.  The Transhumanist   04:17, 20 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wildfire already exists and is well-developed (by me, so I might be biased). However, according to naming conventions, "use the most easily recognized name." I'm not sure many people outside of the wildfire business would be able to identify the US term "Wildland fire." MrBell ^(talk) 18:46, 6 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
