Overlap
[edit]The bulk of this article overlaps with the fire class article. Additionally, the content of the fire class article is organised such that although it is primarily focussed on the concept of classes, the bulk of it is actually organised into discussing types of materials and hazards and associates these with the standardised class letter codes. This article in contrast organises things per the letter codes, or more specifically the US codes, which is a big problem.
I've been editing for quite a while today and need a break so I'm not up to properly reviewing this situation or taking action right at this minute, but from a cursory assessment:
- The Class-A, Class-B, Class-C, Class-D, and Class-K sections should be reviewed, perhaps in mind for moving any bits worth keeping into the fire class article.
- The 'types of fires and fire extinguishers' section similarly is a US-specific mess, and naturally clashes also with the fire extinguisher article.
- That then just leaves the bit of introductory text, which overlaps with the fire triangle article, and the bit at the end on "ventilation".
