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)

[edit] Formating bug

The insertion of the image of the major volcanos in the Philippines has led to the suppression of the bullet point markers in the main text. Anyone know a neat solution or workaround? DFH 15:46, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

I see that this has since been fixed by rearranging the image position. Thanks. DFH 17:41, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Leonard Kniaseff volcano

According to [1] the most recent eruption of the 200m high Leonard Kniaseff was 1,800 years B.P. (Before Present). I fail to see how this paucity of data should lead to it being classified as an "active" volcano. DFH 18:34, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

Hello this is maybe the solution. - Darwinek 19:01, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for the link, which could even be used as the basis for a new article with the title Leonard Kniaseff volcano to distinguish it from any future article on Leonard Kniaseff himself. DFH 12:16, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Mayon Volcano or Mayon volcano

Why does Volcano have a capital V in this page title? DFH 12:20, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

Because the "river" in Amazon River is capitalized? --Howard the Duck 03:26, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] The Danger Zones

Isn't it proper to include a discussion on the danger zones? Note that PhiVolcs discussed the idea of classifying the areas of and those surrounding the volcano. the first 6-kilometer radius is considered as the permanent danger zone, the 6-8 kilometer radius is a partially dangerous zone, etc. User: Tikboyblue 16:24, 15 August 2006


I heard it just erupted. Anyone have confirmation of this? ~ magbatz 02:08, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

I just googled it and nothing came up. I tried everything. I looked on USGS too and there was nothing. I don't think so. Meldshal42Comments and SuggestionsMy Contributions 20:37, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
