To enhance the article I started with revising the first few lines because they matched closely to other sources. I then added information about the ignition and spread of the fire from an additional source. It's important to provide more information because this event had a large impact on the area and changed the face of its ecosystem. Bushfires are common in Australia due to the dryness in the warmer months; therefore, people need to know how bushfires can affect the area. It still needs help with citations and sources.

I went back and edited the first sentence more to avoid biased language and plagiarism. I continued to fix the original source used by citing it correctly. I switched the second and last paragraph to create a more coherent article. I changed a few biased words like "raged" to "burn." I made "angle grinder" a link to a separate wiki article.
