Talk:Cerro Azul (Chile volcano)

Note further that Awickert first raised the "mixture of spellings" issue a couple of days after this edit by User:Malleus Fatuorum changing from:

• "All are located relatively far up the summit, between 2000 and 3000 meters–excluding Quizapu, which is located 3,292 meters up the volcano."

to this:

• "All are relatively far up the summit, between 2,000 and 3,000 metres (6,600 and 9,800 ft) – excluding Quizapu, which is 3,292 metres (10,801 ft) up the volcano."

That wasn't the first use of template:convert to get the British spellings here, but it clearly illustrates one instance when an existing American English spelling was changed through that template. Gene Nygaard (talk) 04:56, 13 March 2010 (UTC) Reply

As per WP:RETAIN the article should keep the first spelling used, which appears to be American English. I did that . Eubulides (talk) 07:17, 13 March 2010 (UTC) Reply

• Metre is the widely accepted international spelling not specifically British. Meter is the USA spelling. So if I were to create articles on mountains in the USA all using "metres", how long you think that would last regardless of WP:RETAIN? The convention we have adoped at WikiProject Mountains is to use metres for mountains outside the USA and meters for mountains within the USA. RedWolf (talk) 02:44, 17 March 2010 (UTC) Reply

I would like to adress some issues that "minor" but relevant to keep that article as FA so it does not become demounted.

1. Caldera: Quizapu is in some senteces called crater and sometimes caldera. Tecnically caldera are distinct from craters by being formed by colapse and not by pilling up or blowaway of material.
2. Links: The article has a lot of red links like flux melting, Río Blanco Valley and Estero Barroso Valley. I dont see that these links will be "blue" in the near future. The South Volcanic Zone does not exist any longer and redirects to Andean Volcanic Belt. And a question is it South Volcanic Zone or Southern Volcanic Zone? (Im not sure)
3. Threats: The threats section is out of focus, Villarrica and Llaima are completely diferent volcanoes whose activity or setting does not resemble that of Cerro Azul. Their only relation to Cerro Azul is they are in the same country and arc but are despite of that quite different. Apart from this some information here is very loose and general specially about the assistance program. This assistance program sentences could be in any volcano article. Onformation of OVDAS and ONEMI activity (or neglect) are totally missing.

1. in the Local setting section: surely the deep grooves are 'ruts' (or cuts) not 'struts'?

A number of sources say the largest known eruption was that of Huaynaputina in Peru in 1600. WolfmanSF (talk) 04:50, 22 June 2011 (UTC) Reply

It depends on definition of "recorded eruption". Ruslik_Zero 09:47, 22 June 2011 (UTC) Reply

The infobox image is going to be deleted from Commons soon, so we need a replacement. (It was my fault for not noticing that the photo was not taken by the a USGS employee.) A heads-up, Awickert (talk) 02:11, 3 February 2012 (UTC) Reply
