# Talk:Amak Volcano

"Glaciation took place around the volcano roughly 6700 years BCE," Query: whether this event was not taking place until about 6700 BCE, as there had been previous severe glaciation during the Wisconsin Glaciation, the effects of which would have lasted well after 10,000 yBP.  And the use of "years" in the phrase 6700 years BCE makes me wonder whether years BP was intended, or whether 6700 BCE was intended.  --Wetman (talk) 03:37, 7 July 2009 (UTC)

Indeed, you are right my friend! Thank you for pointing that out, it was my mistake. ceranthor 12:06, 8 July 2009 (UTC)

Could use a little more context for GA; the referencing is fine for the current amount of information
"Accessibility" section should be shortly summarized in lead
Done.
Reference #2 leads to apparantly the wrong site, or the main site
It was missing a dash. :)
ISBN number should be included in bibliography.
Done.
"Eruptive history" section may be too short to warrant a section
sub section.
Not too many citations are needed in "Geography and geology", as it seems as many of them are for the same reference. As an example
Amak's volcano is unique in that its andesitic lavas, while composed the same as the other Aleutians, contain an abundance of potash. They also could contain more sodium carbonate and rare earth element deposits than the Aleutian norm.

I'm going to keep this because I cited all the facts that could be challenged, but I need to just rm one.
Typically readers prefer no citations in the lead
I cited only the distance, as this could very well be challenged.
Needs more wikilinks for geological terms, such as "blocky lava" and seamounts. (Not all readers may understand these; I do, but some may not.)
Done.
There is no data for the mountain's prominence
It's not available at the moment. I'll keep trying to search around, but... you know the rest.
Categories should be increased. I added a few just now.
Doing.
In "Geography and geology", "Amak's volcano" makes the article sound like it is about the island, not the volcano
Fixed.
What is "etherial platy"? I didn't find it in any other Wikipedia pages so maybe it could be explained a little bit in this article
Ethereal means, in my definition, delicate, and FreeDictionary puts it as Highly refined; delicate.[1] Parenthese-d.ceranthor 12:10, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
It may help to identify Wood and Kienle.
Done.

All comments resolved, pinging user. ceranthor 14:23, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
Oh yes, I only give comments because I'm not very experienced as a reviewer. Hopefully this has helped... Shannon1talk contribs 15:11, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
