message: I have requested temporary full protection on this page, as it has repeated vandalism by non-specialist anons.
This webpage currently has the highest Google hits for Grímsvötn eruptions.
A new article will be needed quite soon, 2011 eruptions of Grímsvötn, anyone want to start a page? In the meantime I will undertake a rapid edit, with relavant scientific links.
I was an editor of 2010 eruptions of Eyjafjallajökull and am trained in glaciology, etc.--Lidos (talk) 07:24, 23 May 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I copy-pasted and slightly edited in content from All-geo.org but it was deleted (apparently copy-pasting relevant information is not allowed). Especially with the high amount of hits, I still do think though that some sort of comparative analysis between the effects of Eyjafjallajökull and Grímsvötn eruptions (in layman terms!) would be appropriate, at least while the events are unfolding. --NikoN (talk) 08:05, 23 May 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Let's wait a bit with a new article. When it get too big here, there is enought time to move it. Until that, you could make a redirect to this section to make sure the info lands on the right place. As for temp protection: I see no need yet. There is not much vandalism and it is especially the link between experts and non-experts which makes this encyclopedia a good  gneral plublic one! L.tak (talk) 08:50, 23 May 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, vandalism seems to have ceased. Sorry, NikoN we must avoid text that is copyright, as Wikipedia is very keen on having unique material. One of my edits comparing with the Eyjafjallajökull eruption was also deleted, maybe it can be added later.--Lidos (talk) 19:57, 23 May 2011 (UTC)

message: We need a new section on ashfall in Iceland, chemical composition of the ash, effects on the local community, including the road closures. Compare with the article 2010 eruptions of Eyjafjallajökull. Any offers to start this?--Lidos (talk) 18:30, 24 May 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  Voice Recording 

message: Yesterday I have been bold and placed the glacial flood section in the eruption section. My guess is that the event is not notable for mentioning in the article (as it occurs more often?), except as an indicator of the 2011 eruptions; and I therefore feel it is more suitalbe to place it in a subsection. As the change was reverted, I am asking for input here. L.tak (talk) 21:40, 26 May 2011 (UTC)
