The result of the discussion was merged and Infobox California wildfires speedy deleted per WP:G6 by at the request of. (nac) Alakzi (talk) 22:34, 24 August 2015 (UTC) Propose merging Template:Infobox California wildfires with Template:Infobox wildfire.
 * Infobox California wildfires
 * Infobox wildfire

Entirely redundant and could easily be merged with a few simple tweaks.  Sounder Bruce  03:02, 22 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Oppose these serve two very different purposes. Using the for the seasonal page has left people to fill in a long list of the causes, the multiple motives and perpetrators. What is the problem with having a separate template? -- Zackmann08  (Talk to me/What I been doing) 07:42, 22 August 2015 (UTC)
 * They could easily be merged together, with a few parameters that change depending on whether or not "season=yes" is added. I don't see why it has to be two templates, especially for only a single state (WA has wildfire seasons too, but uses Infobox wildfire).  Sounder Bruce  14:13, 22 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Merge - what's wrong with having a separate template (for just one state?!?) is outlined in WP:Infobox consolidation. Andy Mabbett ( Pigsonthewing ); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 12:54, 22 August 2015 (UTC)


 * Support - thanks for pointing me to that. Still learning here. I change my vote and am working on merging the two templates right now in my user space. It is going to require a lot of trial and error with Parser Functions so figured I'd mess around in my sandbox for a bit. Will not actually make the change to the live template until this discussion is closed. -- Zackmann08  (Talk to me/What I been doing) 23:57, 22 August 2015 (UTC)


 * Merge - but in the new merged template it would be helpful to a reader to know the state in which the wildfire occurred. Is there a category one can search if they wanted to find just wildfires in CA?

 * The wildfire infobox already has a location parameter, which WA's seasons fills with "northern and eastern Washington". California has a category of their annual seasons and I've made a similar one for WA.  Sounder Bruce  15:08, 23 August 2015 (UTC)
 * NOTE: Merger is completed.... -- Zackmann08 (Talk to me/What I been doing) 05:05, 24 August 2015 (UTC)
