Probable commons category
Resolved: the name is indeed a translationA category that may be relevant is https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Natural_fire .
I cannot say what an internationally recognizable name could be. I think "fiery fountain" is a backtranslation from french (and italian). I don't have an english geology reference to look it up and wikipedia/commons does not help me that much. --Gormo (talk) 07:41, 2 April 2024 (UTC)
You are perfectly correct, the name is indeed a translation since the italian and french name are the only one I was able to find --Gabrielesani (talk) 08:00, 2 April 2024 (UTC)
What if the fiery fountain is combined with a water spring?
Resolved: Modified the proposal to exclude any gas transported artificallyExample: https://t.me/red_spades/1037 natural=fiery_fountain is inconvenient to use as it will conflict with natural=spring TrickyFoxy (talk) 19:27, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
TrickyFoxy Can you tell me where this was shot? So I can check what is exactly? --Gabrielesani (talk) 20:00, 13 October 2024 (UTC)

I see a pipe in the video, I don't think it would be a "natural" fiery fountain --Gabrielesani (talk) 20:11, 13 October 2024 (UTC)
Yes, it is a well-maintained spring, but the burning gas is not supplied from any gas pipeline. As mentioned in the first link, there is a lot of methane dissolved in the water, which the locals set on fire several decades ago. TrickyFoxy (talk) 20:20, 13 October 2024 (UTC)
Ok, i don't think this case pertain to the tag proposed. A fiery fountain should be a natural flammable gas source. This is a water spring that has the particular feature of having dissolved methane in it. Does it makes sense? --Gabrielesani (talk) 20:33, 13 October 2024 (UTC)
I have no opinion on this. On the one hand, these phenomena have the same cause (somewhere below there are reserves of methane that are bursting out). On the other hand, the flame is secondary to the spring. I do not know if there are many such springs in the world, so I wrote about it in the hope that you or someone else knows about this phenomenon.TrickyFoxy (talk) 20:42, 13 October 2024 (UTC)
