I couldn't see any failure to demonstrate a worldview, so have removed the category. Anyone who disagrees might like to post their reasons so we can improve the articles. El T 06:54, 9 November 2005 (UTC)

There is a deficiency here of a global view: There is nothing about fire stations in developing countries, where equipment used in developed countries is not used. With regards to developed countries fire stations (which the article currently appears to describe) there is still a lack of balance: for example "ladder 49" and other references seem to be specifically of the USA. --jrleighton 12:35, 10 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] What?

Why is it that "Fire Department" redirects here? This makes no sense. I think there should be a seperate article for "Fire Department".—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Kormerant (talk • contribs) date.

A fire department is sometimes known as a fire station. A fire department can be a physical place: Every Thursday, I go to the fire department because I volunteer there. Depends on where you're from. A fire company/fire department can be a group of people, the organization, and a fire department/fire station can be the physical building. What do you propose to do? --MPD01605 (T / C) 20:46, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
