Timing

"Remnants of magma intrusions as young as 7 billion years old can be found at the lake", this has to be wrong as Earth doesn't have rock formations that old. Is it a typo for million? ϢereSpielChequers 00:38, 26 February 2011 (UTC)

I'm going to presume based on the surrounding context and the obvious that "million" is meant. Fixed accordingly. Juliancolton (talk) 02:57, 26 February 2011 (UTC)

Thank you both, that was indeed supposed to be 7 million. ceranthor 03:15, 26 February 2011 (UTC)

million years ago

We have both "mya" (linked) and "million years ago" in the article. Should we stick with one or the other? Graham Colm (talk) 18:46, 24 April 2011 (UTC)

"poorly glaciated mountains"

What does "poorly glaciated" mean? Is it simply a standard expression I haven't heard before (in which case a link might help)? Does it mean that the result of the glaciation is atypical? Does it mean that the glacier was atypical? I'm partly curious and partly concerned about the whether the term would be understood by readers.--Northernhenge (talk) 18:25, 11 May 2011 (UTC)

Western Chile

"This most active section of the Andes runs through central and western Chile,"

Western Chile seems like a rather strange concept. Which part of Chile is western Chile ? Anyway, this volcano or caldera is shown on the map as being on or close to the Argentinian frontier. Surely that is eastern Chile ?Eregli bob (talk) 03:13, 23 October 2011 (UTC)

Loma Seca Tuff

stumbled onto this, not sure if it's any use - or even if it has been cited already? EdwardLane (talk) 21:14, 20 December 2015 (UTC)

It's been cited already, as "Hildreth".Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 21:23, 20 December 2015 (UTC)

Referencing could be improved, not up to FA quality.

In my opinion, the referencing in this article could really use some work. For starters, the inline SFN references aren't linked using a proper template, leading to it not being very clear what publication is being referenced. Also, there is a mix of SFNs and full citations within inline references, which is inconsistent. I think the prose is good enough, but the referencing (including the Bibliography, which has inconsistent cite journal citations in terms of name and date formats) is not nearly up to FA quality.

I have added this article to FARGIVEN.

 Cheers! BhamBoi (talk) 05:31, 14 March 2023 (UTC)

I don't think that not using the reference templates makes the citation style broken or inconsistent. I did standardize the name and date format a bit. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 09:07, 14 March 2023 (UTC)

Parking for future reference this list of potential sources. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 09:11, 14 March 2023 (UTC)

BhamBoi: Linking short notes is not a requirement. It is also common to use a consistent format of using inline references for websites, and short notes for journal articles, but some of the journal articles are missed here, and should be converted to short notes. That would require a minor amount of work. None of that is enough to warrant a WP:FARGIVEN. On the other hand, if there is a failure of comprehensiveness per the list of sources given by Jo-Jo, that would be. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 13:57, 14 March 2023 (UTC)

Okay, my bad. I'll de-list it. BhamBoi (talk) 15:00, 14 March 2023 (UTC)

SandyGeorgia I shall check for source comprehensiveness, but it might take a while. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 16:07, 14 March 2023 (UTC)

BhamBoi, I see you are changing the citation style; see WP:CITEVAR and did you check with Ceranthor? SandyGeorgia (Talk) 18:05, 14 March 2023 (UTC)

Sorry, I didn't think that applied as is its still the same style (shortened footnotes) but now is in a linking template. I haven't asked. BhamBoi (talk) 18:13, 14 March 2023 (UTC)

Short notes without sfns are an acceptable citation style, and not everyone likes sfns; would be good to hear from Ceranthor, as they might not mind, particularly with you doing the work :) :) SandyGeorgia (Talk) 18:18, 14 March 2023 (UTC)

I'll reach out right now. BhamBoi (talk) 18:19, 14 March 2023 (UTC)

Added a talk message on their page. I'll finish up the changes then revert if contested. Cheers, thanks for the notice! BhamBoi (talk) 18:42, 14 March 2023 (UTC)

I don't mind references being converted to the {{sfn}} style if you're volunteering. I do, however, ask that in the future you reach out to the primary author(s) of FAs (or really, any article) before 1. adding templates to the page; 2. changing references based on your personal preferences; and 3. listing the article for FAR. Thanks. ceranthor 19:09, 14 March 2023 (UTC)

Best I can tell, we now have a consistent citation style that involves sfns for journal articles and inline refs for websites. SO, the remaining issue is whether Jo-Jo thinks there are any comprehensiveness issues. Is that correct? SandyGeorgia (Talk) 20:07, 14 March 2023 (UTC)

Think so, yes. If so I'm happy to work with Jojo to address. ceranthor 21:14, 14 March 2023 (UTC)

​​​Paging through the sources, my first impression is that this volcano hasn't seen much research in the past decade. Probably b/c unlike Laguna del Maule (volcano) it doesn't show much sign of ongoing activity. Anyhow, among the sources to use:

• [1] Does it warrant mention of the Las Loicas trough? Other source
• [2] Does mention two eruptions and codes them as "V" and "S".
• [3] Rock art in the "Calabozos" valley, not sure it's about this volcano.

I am adding some information myself; the above list is mainly for unclear sources. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 13:23, 25 March 2023 (UTC)

Thx, Jo-Jo! I'll unwatch now, and this is in your competent hands, and we don't seem to be in FAR territory. Best, SandyGeorgia (Talk) 13:44, 25 March 2023 (UTC)

Thanks for clarifying. Should I just stick to these three above, then? ceranthor 01:21, 26 March 2023 (UTC)

Up to you, really, this is something I need second opinions on. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 08:05, 26 March 2023 (UTC)

One other source on geothermics, but I am not sure if it's necessary information: [4] has This is located 240-km southeast of Santiago, in the central-southern zone of Chile, near the border with Argentina. Results include promising possibilities pointed out [47] and [48], based on large volumes of erupted silicic magma, high flow rates of the thermal springs (>240 L/s), and the estimated subsurface temperatures >250�C; hot springs range from chloride and chloride-sulfate to bicarbonate types, suggesting a liquid-dominant geothermal system; and MT-TDEM geophysical surveys, plus water and gas geothermometry, indicate subsurface temperatures 235e300�C Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 08:05, 26 March 2023 (UTC)
