Hello! I'm Hurricane Wind and Fire! I am fascinated by wildfires and tropical cyclones, particularly when it is the season. I have other interests in locations in the Western United States, especially ghost towns, and I had a previous interest in aviation. Outside of Wikipedia, I enjoy playing soccer and solving Rubik's cubes of all kinds.
I started reading Wikipedia much more around the middle of 2021, but I did not create my account until December 31, 2024. I made several edits that night, and I started a draft on the Davis Fire on January 4, 2025. I enjoy editing Wikipedia on any device I can get my hands on (albeit PC, laptop, iPad, phone, etc.).
I like adding the season background and summary to wildfire list articles. Additionally, I like creating their talk pages with the WikiProjects and grades. I like recruiting members to WikiProject Wildfire, and this has been successful for two editors. I update wildfire season articles, normally adding wildfires and updating acreage and containment, and write wildfire articles over periods of two or three days, typically on weekends when I have more time.
Oh, and just so you know, I am in a particularly dangerous situation on Wikipedia, normally in a red flag warning. I am a threat to humanity in that stage, so just stay away from me during that time. :)
I have an edit streak that has been going since January 27, 2025.
I reached 1,000 edits on August 7, 2025. My original goal was to achieve 1,000 by the end of the year, so I came to the conclusion I needed to do 3 edits a day.[better source needed] Now, I try to do at least 3 edits a day to keep myself engaged with Wikipedia.
These are articles or drafts I have noticeably contributed to or created. If possible, please help with these articles or drafts. For the drafts, please contact me on my talk page or their respective draft talk page.
Normally, when an new wildfire starts and is either a. Large, or b. Takes place in a populated area, it is immediately given an article. Many of these articles aren't updated over time, and are left unkept and are shown as "still active" weeks or months later. That's why I submit drafts through AfC. I don't have time to write an adequate article in one shot, and even then, I'm not very good at assessing articles not obvious stubs. I prefer developing articles on their own time, but sometimes it might take a bit too long. For example, I started the Davis Fire draft on January 4, and it wasn't submitted until June 15, 2025 (and it wasn't even me!).
Navigational boxes, commonly referred to as navboxes, such as Template:2025 wildfires, are some of the most important templates that can be used for wildfire articles. Many wildfire articles would only have one or two links appear to them, otherwise. While not immediately visible, navboxes can link together over fifty articles to each other, if used on every page that would fit in that category. When creating a new wildfire article, I like when people add a link to that article to the navbox itself so the article is not an orphan.
Oftentimes, a new editor may leave the project if their first interaction with another editor is not positive. This is why I believe new users should be welcomed after making a couple edits. While adding a template is a good idea to provide links, it is the best to write a message on your own that includes an explicit link to your talk page or a certain WikiProject the user may be interested in.
Yeah, these are pretty unorganized, very organized but I don't know how to fix them and I am a trained professional in userbox organization.[non-primary source needed]
