Three peaks with two names

edit

Currently the article reads as follows:

"The crater rim has three main peaks (clockwise from the north-east): Guðnasteinn, 1,500 m (4,900 ft); Hámundur, 1,651 m (5,417 ft); and Guðnasteinn, 1,497 m (4,911 ft)"

Two of these "three" peaks have the same name and are only 3 m apart in height: these seem to be duplicates with the height rounded differently. What is the first peak actually called? Was information duplicated improperly from multiple sources? 58.141.206.230 (talk) 03:17, 21 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

According to Icelandic WP the three peaks are called Hámundur, Goðasteinn and Guðnasteinn, but I can't tell which has which height. However, further research has revealed that Goðasteinn is lower than Guðnasteinn. I shall edit the article accordingly. LynwoodF (talk) 15:00, 21 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

1944 to 1952 eruptions? 1996-2008 erptions?

edit

The chapters 1944 to 1952 eruptions and 1996 to 2008 eruptions make no sense. There were no eruptions then and there are no citations that imply that. --Berserkur (talk) 12:20, 28 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

I believe that paragraph six of “Geography” is unprofessionally written, and should be revised. 184.97.124.159 (talk) 02:19, 26 November 2022 (UTC)Reply

I'm having trouble identifying your paragraph six of “Geography” though I do see some dodgy writing. Can you please be more specific about where you mean, maybe with example text to help nail it? Maybe your system is showing paragraphs differently from how mine is, or something. Thanks, DBaK (talk) 10:12, 26 November 2022 (UTC)Reply
Alternatively, why not revise it yourself? If you prefer, you can submit a draft here. --𝕁𝕄𝔽 (talk) 13:59, 26 November 2022 (UTC)Reply

3rd paragraph of 'Geography' is unprofessionally written and has multiple uncited claims. Should be rewritten or removed but i do Not know enough about this volcano to do so Whimsikl (talk) 00:22, 5 November 2023 (UTC)Reply

I think there has been quite a bit of work put in to address those concerns by various editors by now ChaseKiwi (talk) 20:04, 27 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
