GA Review[edit]

I'll review this. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 12:00, 22 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I'll copyedit as I go; please revert any mistakes.

It includes a number of volcanoes, some of which like Huaynaputina have had large eruptions and others such as Sabancaya and Ubinas have been active in historical time: needs rephrasing; the context is intended to be the CVZ, but as it stands "It" refers to Sabancaya.

Fixed.

Moraines at elevations of 4,450–4,250 metres (14,600–13,940 ft) above sea level testify to the occurrence of more extensive glaciation during the last ice age between 25,000 and 17,000 years before present, they have diverted some lava flows: does this mean that these glaciations diverted some lava flows, or that the moraines did so?

Remedied.

at temperatures of 990–920 °C (1,814–1,688 °F): it's usual to give this sort of range in ascending order of values.

Changed.

The presence of an ice cap is an additional source of danger, as their melting: singular "ice cap", so you can't have plural "their".

Changed.

Tweaked one point; otherwise looks good. Promoting. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 22:56, 22 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

How to format INGEMMET citations[edit]

Currently INGEMMET webpages (e.g this one) show two parameters "Serie" and "Aparece en las colecciones: "; which one of these should be put in the series parameter? Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 15:03, 10 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

A similar question about the "Publicado por" parameter - does it mean "publisher" or merely the entity commissioning the publication? Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 15:25, 10 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Result: No violations of the criteria apparent. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 01:11, 19 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I just notably expanded/rewrote the article, so it might need a re-assessment. I am especially unsatisfied with the prose, which is overly wordy. I'd like to present it to FAC in the future, so this needs to be tip-top. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 17:32, 10 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I mean, keeping in mind that GAR isn't PR and is really meant to assess if egregious violations of the GA criteria can be fixed, I think you're fine. About the most wordy sentence in the article is The flanks of Sabancaya themselves include roads and a major power line that comes from the Mantaro Power Plant [es] and delivers electricity to southern Peru; all of these could be threatened in an eruption.; it's still perfectly understandable, if a little verbose. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 06:28, 13 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
