I think the existing chronological sort order is better, rather than by casualty numbers. It's less tedious detail work for editors, and the table is sortable for readers by clicking on the arrows anyway. Reify-tech (talk) 20:24, 24 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
My edits to Formosa Fun Coast explosion's seealso have twice been reverted. - I see no reason to call this article "nightclub" - obviously there are major issues like the Station Nightclub - but there are fires at other events. -- Aronzak (talk) 22:53, 29 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I've just moved it back as controversial and needing discussion. I see you've changed List of nightclub fires --> List of concert fires in at least one article. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 01:00, 30 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
This appears to have since been resolved (discussed elsewhere) by classifying the Formosa Fun Coast incident as a nightclub fire. Reify-tech (talk) 19:19, 15 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
An article published in the Huffington Post mentions at least two major nightclub fires which are not listed in this article, and which do not appear to have Wikipedia articles:[1]
Utopia nightclub: Lima, Peru (July 20, 2002); 29 deaths
La Guajira nightclub: Caracas, Venezuela (December 1, 2000); 47 deaths
These were significant incidents, likely noteworthy for Wikipedia coverage. A Google search turns up some English language documentation, but since they occurred in Latin America and I am not fluent in Spanish, I leave it to others to research them further.
