Davy lamp[edit]
Thank you for your well intentioned edit to Davy lamp. However I've had to revert your change. In the main this was because both firedamp and methane are wikilinked in the paragraph above, and in general a term should only be wikilinked when it first occurs. There is also a point that firedamp is not simply, or purely, methane, so a link (had one been needed) ought to have been to firedamp.
