Image review
edit- File:Agency Lake.JPG - I see that there are annotations, but it might be worth mentioning the butte in the caption as well.
- File:View from Mount McLoughlin.jpg - Everything looks good; proper license, and tagged as reviewed.
Prose review
edit- Lede is a bit sparse and should be expanded.
- Is there a good target for axis, within the context of geology?
- several tens of meters - is there a more specific number available, something less ambiguous? This suggests something between 30 and 50 m, at least to me.
- Check capitalization on animals. I note, for example, that Northern flying squirrel does not capitalize "N" in the article itself.
- breccia based on eroded areas with breccia between lava flows, though breccia - any way of avoiding the repetition of breccia?
- There are a couple of one-sentence paragraphs. Any way of merging them elsewhere? — Chris Woodrich (talk) 17:50, 3 October 2024 (UTC)
- The Global Volcanism Program of the Smithsonian Institution does not list any specific subfeatures for Pelican Butte. - This is quite short, and as a layperson I'm not sure of the relevance. Is it worth merging with something?
- Pleistocene - worth contextualizing with MYA?
- Lost Peak - any etymology on this?
- L-4 lookout - any link for classification of lookouts?
- The United States Congress designated the Sky Lakes Wilderness area in 1984. - Worth mentioning the volcano again, as Sky Lakes Wilderness was mentioned three sections ago?
- The Pacific Crest Trail passes through the Sky Lakes wilderness area, running about 35 miles (56 km) in length. - Does it cross the butte?
Source review
edit- Not a GA requirement, but moving forward I would recommend archiving the internet references. It helps prevent link rot.
- Overall, reference formatting looks really good! I did standardize the date format.
- Earwig indicates low likelihood of copyvio.
- Have spotchecked Refs [6], [8], [17], and [29]. I didn't see any issues.
Conclusion
editThis is very well written! Just a few comments, and it should be an easy pass. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 22:30, 3 October 2024 (UTC)
