message: Does the latest update on Aug 8th actually make sense? "The size of the rockfalls from the lava dome have grown considerably and are threatening to cause massive, if not lifelessly dangerous, damage across the Philippines."  What is the "if not lifelessly dangerous" meant to mean? --Nunners 14:26, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: New 7 Wonders

message: Because Philippine cities often include vast tracts of rural areas, they are not "cities" in the usual urban sense of the word.  Legally, Mayon forms the northern apex of Legazpi City.  Therefore the argument about whether it is 12, 15, or 16 kilomotres from "Legazpi City" misses the legality.  It could be beneficial to mention distance from the Capitol, or perhaps the airport, since these are specific locations and not diverse spreads like the legal entity of Legazpi City. I changed the reference in the article to match the legal reality. Gubernatoria (talk) 01:07, 29 December 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  Do we really need two Lignon Hill photos? 

message: The reference for the 10 July 2009 eruption was provided by me in my edit of 13:36 30 October 2009 which originally read:
:On 10 July 2009, PHIVOLCS issued the following bulletin:
:This is a notice for the raising of Mayon Volcano’s status from Alert Level 1 (low level  unrest) to Alert Level 2 (moderate unrest). 
:Beginning June 2009 monitored parameters indicated an increase in the current activity of Mayon Volcano. The number of recorded low frequency volcanic earthquakes rose to a higher level signifying possible movement of magma beneath the volcano edifice at shallow depth. The present seismic count is at the same level when a phreatic explosion occurred last August 2008. Ground uplift of about one centimeter was measured by Precise Leveling Survey conducted last June 15-22, 2009 and the uplift was sustained during a re-survey yesterday, July 9, 2009.  Glow at the summit crater has intensified and could now be observed at Lignon Hill Observatory without the aid of telescopes.  Steam emission was at moderate level.
:Aerial survey conducted last July 08, 2009, showed a cone-shaped pile of hot, steaming old  rocks, possibly remnants from previous eruptions which could be the source of the glow at the crater. The low frequency volcanic earthquakes and ground uplift could indicate that fresh volcanic materials are moving upward at depth, causing the formation of the cone-shaped pile of materials at the crater.
:Because of the above observations, PHIVOLCS is now raising the Alert status of Mayon Volcano from Alert Level 1 to Alert Level 2. This alert condition signifies, a state of unrest which could lead to ash explosions or eventually to hazardous magmatic eruption. Thus, at Alert Level 2, PHIVOLCS strongly recommends that the 6-km radius Permanent Danger Zone (PDZ) around the volcano and the 7-km Extended Danger Zone (EDZ) on the southeast flank of the volcano are off-limits due to the threat from sudden explosions and rockfalls from the upper slopes. Active river channels and those areas perennially identified as lahar prone in the southeast sector should also be avoided especially during bad weather conditions or when there is heavy and prolonged rainfall.  Mayon Volcano Advisory
But some meddlesome interferor later removed the reference. Gubernatoria (talk) 15:05, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: It looks to me as if you removed it yourself in this edit. Wtmitchell  (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 20:29, 30 December 2009 (UTC)

text: It seems it got replaced by a volcano advisory about raising the alert level from level 2 to level 3. Not your fault though, the link is correct but the content was later changed on the PHIVOLCS website. --112.203.95.233 (talk) 03:41, 31 December 2009 (UTC)

text: Found a copy of the original July 10, 2009 volcano bulletin on Google cache. --112.203.95.233 (talk) 03:57, 31 December 2009 (UTC)

text: Right, Gubernatoria. I was going by the removed material having included "Mayon Volcano Bulletin 7, Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology, 20 December 2009.", I didn't notice that the edit also showed this ref as having been reinserted. Perhaps something like http://www.abs-cbnnews.com/nation/regions/07/10/09/mayon-state-unrest-alert-level-raised would be a more stable supporting source for the raising of alert level 2.

thread_title:  Alert level 4 daily log 

message: I have reduced the alert level 4 daily log from twelve paragraphs to two. For the first paragraph I used the one in the lead of the article which describes the start of alert level 4, while the second paragraph is a more detailed summary for the rest of alert level 4 from late December to the decrease to alert level 3 on January 2. I also included an estimate of the volcanic material erupted so far. --112.203.95.233 (talk) 03:28, 3 January 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Summary

message: OK. The volcano seems to have quieted down for now. The last_eruption= parameter in the infobox says, "2010. Alert Level 1 (no hazardous eruption imminent) is in effect.", citing Mayon Volcano Bulletin March 2, 2010, 10:00 A.M., PHIVOLCS. However, AFAICS, that cited source does not support the characterization of the recent period of activity as an eruption. 
This source, which has been cited in support of the content of this infobox field in versions of this article prior to the recent period of activity still says, "Last Known Eruption: 2009". So, the questions arise: (1) what date(s) should this article give for the last eruption, and (2) what supporting source(s) should be cited.
