Talk:Manaro Voui

Height?
The article at one point says the volcano is 1,496 meters in height. Then it says it "rises 3,000 meters above sea level." That is a contradiction. The first figure is verified by sources, but it's not clear what the second figure is supposed to mean. Is it supposed to be: "3,000 meter above the sea floor"? I can't find sources to confirm that, however. Michitaro (talk) 09:46, 26 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Would make sense that it is above sea floor, yes. And with the surrounding water depths it could be about right. But obviously, the figure needs a reliable source. The German Wikipedia says 3,900 meters above sea floor (no source there either). --Thogo 11:56, 26 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Terrian view on Google Maps shows the height at about 1400m above sea level.
 * Bulletin of Volcanology paper says 3900M above sea floor

Name?
I haven't actually been able to find sources showing the name Lombenben. This article was first made via a translation from the German Wikipedia article (I've linked the original page, first version in history). In fact, the original article includes a web link with a reference to "Lombenden" (link is blacklisted by meta.wikimedia): http://www.mapsouthpacific.com/vanuatu/ambae-map.html. --Murgittroyd (talk) 21:55, 28 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Here is Vanuatu government website calling it Manaro Voui, though one of the summit lakes is called that as well http://www.vmgd.gov.vu/vmgd/index.php/geohazards/volcano/our-active-volcanos/ambae/manaro-voui
 * Actually the westerly of the two lakes (where the current eruption takes place) is Lake Voui, the eastern lake is Lake Manaro. ;) The name Lombenben is officially used, but seemingly only for the summit, see (click on "Synonyms & Subfeatures" in the menu). --Thogo 20:17, 30 September 2017 (UTC)
 * On "Synonyms & Subfeatures", I didn't see anything about Lombenben being used only for the summit. The Vanuatu government refers to the lakes as Manaro-Ngoru, Manaro-Lakwa and Manaro-Voui, http://www.vmgd.gov.vu/vmgd/index.php/geohazards/volcano/our-active-volcanos/ambae/manaro-voui
 * Well yes, you're right. "Lake Manaro" was given as the place of the 2011 eruption in the "Eruptive History" on that page, that's what I meant, it's actually Manaro-Ngoru. Anyway, you also don't see "Lombenben" or "Manaro Voui" being used for the volcano as a whole there, as that is "Aoba" with the synonyms listed on that page. So either the article remains on the current lemma "Manaro Voui" (with the VU government source), or it is moved to "Aoba (volcano)" (with the SI source), but certainly not "Lombenben", unless someone digs out a source for that name referring to the volcano as a whole. I'd prefer Aoba, because Manaro Voui (or Lake Voui, both variants are given on the SI page) is only one of the subfeatures of the whole volcano. --Thogo 13:15, 7 October 2017 (UTC)
