Article name

The article contains no sources for this name - much less the usage in English. Rmhermen (talk) 06:49, 15 April 2014 (UTC)

It does contain two now; there are several others in the link provided in my most recent edit summary. Regards, Küñall (talk) 18:36, 15 April 2014 (UTC)

The original title was descriptive. The current title is a proper name. Is that what you intend? I am not commenting on the merits of the name, but rather aksing whether if you asked someone in Chile would readily identify this incident from the phrase "Great Fire of Valparaíso" (or Spanish equivilent). --ThaddeusB (talk) 18:50, 15 April 2014 (UTC)

It might be too early to tell, but it's a fact that news media and government offices are describing it by this name. Küñall (talk) 18:59, 15 April 2014 (UTC)

OK, in that case the article should start "The Great Fire of Valparaíso started at ..." --ThaddeusB (talk) 19:02, 15 April 2014 (UTC)
