Adding Material from Mount Tambora page

This article is for the most powerful volcanic event in recorded history and it's just one measly paragraph? There's a lot more information on the event at the Mount Tambora page itself that could potentially be copied here. The2crowrox (talk) 16:58, 5 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Why the climate change and volcano 101 nonsense

Non-scientific, non-historical and pushing an agenda. Have cleaned it up — Preceding unsigned comment added by 156.22.9.252 (talk) 05:06, 21 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

More about "parabolic orbit"

The version I worked from talked about a parabolic orbit. There's something wrong here, so I simply deleted a few words. The Dalton Minimum isn't about orbits, it's about solar activity (sunspots etc.) Also, Earth's orbit around the sun isn't parabolic, it's elliptical. I see a rating of "stub class"; I agree that this article needs a lot more work, but at least I could fix one error right away. Another error, not yet fixed: "The ejection of these gasses, especially HCl, caused the precipitation that followed in the region to be extremely alkaline" - this can't be right - HCl and SO2 are acid gases! - but I don't have access to the source, so I haven't edited it.

Parenthetical referencing

Added an edit notice for parenthetical referencing. The article is however missing full citations in the references section, can someone help find and add them based on the inline citations? --Jopo (talk) 10:32, 2 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I've removed the edit notice from the article, as they're not supposed to go on articles themselves - see WP:EDITNOTICE for more details. Best — Mr. Stradivarius ^{♪ talk ♪} 13:56, 15 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thrid Largest in recored history

The eruption of Protokrakatau was recorded by the Chinese, and the eruption of Thera was recorded by the Hebrews, so the eruption of Tambora was the third largest in recorded history, not the largest. 108.210.238.69 (talk) 14:28, 6 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Merged

I have merged 1815 eruption of Mount Tambora back into Mount Tambora#1815 eruption, as the information about this eruption was split between those 2 pages ([{WP:Content forking]]). Anthony Appleyard (talk) 09:46, 7 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Waterloo

An unsourced article I read stated that some link the heavy June rain on the field before the battle of Waterloo to the eruption of Tambora. --Error (talk) 02:13, 3 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Duplication

Please can somebody rewrite this article to get rid of the duplications of information. It reads like a collection of totally independent notes rather than a coherent article
