This article generates hCard microformats, to make place-names and locations parsable by computers, either acting automatically to index articles, or via a user's browser tool, to (for example) add the subject to an address book. Within the hCard is a Geo microformat, to make the coordinates parsable, so they can be, say, located on a map, or sent to a GPS unit. See also Wikipedia's microformat project. hCard uses HTML classes including: "adr", "county-name", "fn", "label", "locality", "nickname", "note", "org", "region" & "vcard". Geo is produced by {{coord}}, and has classes: "geo", "latitude" & "longitude". Please do not rename or remove these classes. When giving coordinates, please don't be overly precise. |
Cold Bay
Cold Bay Volcano listing here: No such thing, really. The coordinates given here are for Mt. Frosty, a volcano within the Cold Bay volcanic complex. Not sure how to go about renaming this link, however, as it goes to a "Cold Bay volcano" page.Idocrase 00:24, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
Arizona
I am deleting Bonito Lava Flow from the list of volcanoes as it is a lava flow associated with Sunset Crater and not a volcano in its own right. See Geology of Sunset Crater National Monument --Burntnickel 15:06, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
Microformats
I've added the hCard microformat to this page (class="vcard"); effectively wrapping the existing "Geo" microformat (in {{coord}}) with a name field (class="fn org"). Andy Mabbett 15:48, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
Too Many Entries?
I've been adding entries to the Arizona section and it is getting pretty big so I got to thinking, would it make sense to list individual vents and cones belonging to a particular volcanic field with that volcanic field rather than in this category? These would be features of a particular site of volcanism rather than unique volcanoes. Exceptions could be made if there is a compelling reason, if the site is a stratovolcoano or a case like Lassen Peak. Thoughts? --Burntnickel 00:38, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
- It might be better to just split this page in two alphabetically (A-M, N-Z, or whatever) . Andy Mabbett 14:52, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
Active?
I think it might be nice if the list mentioned whether the volcanoes are still considered active or not. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 221.186.127.18 (talk) 00:52, 27 February 2009 (UTC)
- That's actually a lot harder than it seems. Geologists don't actually classify volcanoes that way. It's more of an "evening news" sort of classification. See Talk:Mount_Hood#Dormant or active.3F for a discussion of whether Mount Hood is active or dormant. —EncMstr (talk) 00:56, 27 February 2009 (UTC)

The coordinates need the following fixes:

89.60.169.109 (talk) 14:54, 13 June 2009 (UTC)I believe the Davidof volcanoe is located on Davidof Island and the coordinates
51°57'4.37"N 178°19'47.53"E would be more accurate.
Done, but used coordinates from http://www.avo.alaska.edu/volcanoes/volcinfo.php?volcname=Davidof. BrainMarble (talk) 02:56, 13 February 2010 (UTC)
Coordinates
Coordinates in this article may need fixing. WikiProject Geographical coordinates and tools on Obtaining geographic coordinates may help. See Manual of Style on how to format coordinates.

89.60.169.109 (talk) 15:19, 13 June 2009 (UTC) More likely Mount Kiska is at 52° 5'57.00"N 177°36'16.04"E
Missouri
Could someone add the St. Francois Mountains to the list for Missouri. The area was volcanic 1 billion years ago. Thank you Magnum Serpentine (talk) 20:00, 5 September 2009 (UTC)
