Initial review

[edit]

This article appears to be at or about the right level for a GA-class article.

Here are my initial comments:

  • I'm not sure that History is a suitable title for the two sentences that it contains, particularly when there is another section called 'Eruptive history'. Perhaps 'Discovery' or 'Discovery of the island' might be a more apt title?
 Done.
  • The page numbers quoted for the 'Coombs, McGimsey and Browne' in-line citations do not match what is in that paper. They might be pdf file page numbers, but they don't match the page numbers in the article.
My computer doesn't let me see those article numbers, I apologize. Would you mind adding them for me? Sorry to be a bother. ceranthor 16:33, 16 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
OK, I was just about to do it and then I noticed your remark above.Pyrotec (talk) 16:41, 16 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Threat - This is much more 'woolly' than Coombs, McGimsey and Browne. I'm fairly certain that it is not an accurate summary of what they wrote (but I will be checking it).
I will get around to rewriting the section today. ceranthor 16:42, 16 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I think the Threat section can be deleted, of not greatly reduced. It merely states the obvious, and is contradictory concerning tsunamis. When I read it I see meaningless "scare" hype. Bob Webster (talk) 17:46, 24 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Eruption

[edit]

Just a heads-up. Gareloi has erupted yesterday, as proved by satellite infrared images (ash plume moving south). No official statement yet (that I know of), but SI might probably have it on their weekly report that should come out in a few hours. --Thogo 18:14, 27 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
