Talk:List of fires in Egypt

List selection criteria
Here's how I envision this article working.

Include:


 * Structure fires destroying large structures (e.g., factories, hospitals, large apartment blocks) or public infrastructure (e.g., trains, bridges, highways)
 * Fires producing more than a couple of deaths, or a large number of injuries
 * Fires attracting international attention (e.g., the BBC writes about it)
 * Major fires that might have been preventable if government safety standards were strong and enforced

Exclude:


 * Ordinary "everyday" fires (e.g., an accidental fire when you're cooking dinner, with no injuries or deaths and no other buildings destroyed)
 * "Private" fires (e.g., a single home, and the only people harmed are the people who live there)
 * Fires that are primarily car wrecks

I particularly hope that this page will become a home for fires that might have borderline notability.

If you have ideas about how to adjust these criteria, please feel free to share them here, or to Be bold. My message here is not "a rule", and even if it were, If a rule prevents you from improving or maintaining Wikipedia, ignore it. WhatamIdoing (talk) 23:39, 30 October 2023 (UTC)
