Hi, at the beginning of the article we read: "However, given the large penguin population, crime is mostly in areas where they congregate the most.[2]". I've read the cited source and I can't seem to find that claim. If it's vandalism it's the best vandalism ever so I'm not changing it. 31.221.106.218 (talk) 15:25, 21 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

No reliable sources report the claim of arson at McMurdo Station. The source cited is a website unaffiliated with any reliable sources. The account that Wikipedia uses as a source involves a first-person e-mail account of an alleged witness to the fire, but his claim is unsupported by any independent, recognized journalistic, historical, military, or other authoritative source. Recommend deletion of arson portions of article.
