 * Symbol voting keep.svg Hi Jo-Jo Eumerus, review follows: article 5x expanded on 10 November; article is of a very good length; article is well written and cited inline throughout to reliable sources; I cannot access many of the sources to check for close paraphrasing and many are in Spanish but the checker tool comes up clear on copyright violations (ignoring false positives); hook fact is interesting (I added "volcano" to it as I think it makes it more exciting, feel free to revert if you like); hook is mentioned in the article and cited, I cannot access the source but it is a reliable journal article and I am happy to AGF that it supports the statement; image is good at small scale and freely licensed; QPQ has been done. This one looks good to go - a very nice article indeed! - Dumelow (talk) 18:22, 15 November 2018 (UTC)
