Regarding this edit, I don't see where it says in the source that the literature may according use the term Rurutu hotspot where such unresolved issues are not felt relevant Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 09:19, 27 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Yes perhaps better removed as I cant be bothered seeing if said in an editorial ChaseKiwi (talk) 10:30, 27 May 2023 (UTC)
 * But your intervention did draw my attention to recent peer reviewed and non (as yet) peer reviewed work by the Chinese oceanographers that is fascinating for anyone whose has tried to disentangle the hotspot highway in the Pacific as it looks to me that the oldest part of the NW Pacific oceanic crust had something similar happen to it over 100 million years ago and those sub plumes from a super plume have been doing some complex things, and young chains might turn out to be old and intermittently detected as some suspectedChaseKiwi (talk) 12:49, 27 May 2023 (UTC)
 * You know, I actually saw that paper last year and already used it in the article. It doesn't seem to say anything about "Old Rurutu" referring to the Macdonald hotspot. Also, are the Wake seamounts and the West Pacific seamount province the same thing? Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 16:01, 27 May 2023 (UTC)
 * An old Rurutu reference is found by clicking the wikilink as that takes you to the Macdonald hotspot article which has the reference. I had found another reference to name but removed from sandbox as article had nothing much to do with Arago hotspot so a diect reference would be clutter when this was already defined on Wikipedia. By the way this is a great article mainly by you I have noted. No the Wake seamounts are just one of the seamount chains in the  West Pacific seamount province. I have only any knowledge of the West Pacific seamount province in a journey of discovery as I tried to improve other South Pacific seamount articles (not this one) as the Japanese, Chinese and Russians have done some interesting compositional work recently.ChaseKiwi (talk) 16:30, 27 May 2023 (UTC)
 * PS I will ensure the three duplicate references are properly sorted later today as missed that you had picked up article already and put it in source. ChaseKiwi (talk) 16:35, 27 May 2023 (UTC)
 * I've done some changes, mostly to match the citation format to the one already used and to remove references from the lead per WP:LEADCITE. It seemed to me that some of the information you added was already in the article, or I couldn't find it in the source. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 16:40, 27 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Great, looks good, and again appreciate you sorting out my duplication and apologies for creating work for you.ChaseKiwi (talk) 18:07, 27 May 2023 (UTC)
