Review by violet/riga (t)

 * Coverage and factuality: 6
 * Covers things well but is not properly referenced


 * Writing style: 9
 * Well written except for a few small areas


 * Structure: 7
 * Tiny "Before 1883" section and oddly placed "Earlier eruptions" (merge the two?) - some reordering needed


 * Aesthetics: 8
 * Some nice images and generally well done, but could do with at least one more image (an overhead map comparison?)


 * Overall: 7

Badly needs references and could do with restructuring. violet/riga 23:24, 26 February 2006 (UTC)

Review by MacGyverMagic

 * Coverage and factuality: 8
 * Covers things nicely, but contains a contradiction as to whether the eruption was heard or felt in Australia (difference between lead and section of article). Has one listed ref at bottom, a few in text, needs more, but better than some.


 * Writing style: 9
 * A few odd phrases (as far distant as), and a few jargon words not explained. Spelling, grammar okay. Keeps interest.


 * Structure: 9
 * Proper table in well-sized lead. Good use of infobox, images and sectioning. Could do with slightly more images.


 * Aesthetics: 9
 * Nice images and table style and generally attractive.


 * Overall: 9
 * Good overal, but needs a copyedit and a fix of the references. - Mgm|(talk) 23:07, 26 February 2006 (UTC)
