Thanks for the edit, Menza - I'm really chuffed about the way this has turned out after all the fuss... 
Just one tiny thing - can you make sure Whippy gets a researcher credit? After all, a lot of this entry is his work - more than mine!
Thanks for the edit :)

This seems a bit of an odd line: "The next steps of action are very dangerous, and should really not be attempted."
Thanks for the edit :)

Well, that's from the original, and it made sense to me. The implication I got is that if you're a selfish SOB, you should get the heck out - only do the tackling thing if you care very much for the person who is on fire, and don't mind the risk of being set on fire yourself...
Thanks for the edit :)

Remember the first rule of First Aid is Look after yourself.
If You are incapacitated then you can no longer render aid and assistance to casualties. However drastic situations call fire drastic measures...

Shoudn't that be "call FOR drastic measures"? Or are you saying that, in drastic situations, fire can be called a drastic measure? This seems to be a slightly unnerving comment at an entry on Molotov cocktails. 8)
Or am I entirely misreading your post?

I note the hordes of researchers who are scandalised by this entry and complaining like crazy... or maybe it isn't quite so risque as certain italics thought. 
Thanks for the edit :)
