→Early life and other activities: Changed "credited the term" to "originated the term" - "to credit [direct object] to [indirect]") is synonymous with "give credit to", "ascribe the origin of [some thing] to" or "acknowledge." Because this verb phrase lacks an indirect object (e.g. "he credited the term [to someone]"). "To credit [direct object]" without an indirect object in the verb phrase would normally imply the accounting/financial sense of the word

Trans-Pecos Volcanic Field
Changed “most of the field contains” to “most of the volcanoes in the field are.” The original phrasing is awkward and ungrammatical given the typical usage of the referent.Tags: Mobile editMobile web edit

Trans-Pecos Volcanic Field
Removed “which some could be Super-volcanic or just normal volcanoes.” This statement is supposition and adds nothing to the article. Further, “normal volcanoes” is not a useful comparator; statement just makes the article less clear. A cited source would make this statement useful. Finally, it’s not grammatical and the tone is inappropriate.Tags: Mobile editMobile web edit

Mount Taylor (New Mexico)
→Native American traditions: changed "Torquoise" to "Turquoise", the correct spelling; I checked Google for references to a "Torquoise Mountain" and found nothing, indicating that this is just a misspelling and not an idiomatic spelling of the word only used for this mountain.

changed "universal adaptation of...nomenclature" to "universal adoption" as "adaptation" means "alteration" not "uptake, bring or begin to use", which is what is meant

Day of the Dead
Changed "boy and young men dressed as granpas" to the grammatically correct "boys" and changed "granpas" to "grandfathers" to correct both spelling and to avoid the word "grandpa" which is not really fitting for its use in this article

removing "*

Changed "Oregonian volcanoes" to "Oregon volcanoes" - the adjective form "Oregonian," in common usage, applies only to people, not things.

removed "a" from "a chromosomal DNA"; the indirect article is inappropriate here as "chromosomal DNA" is a mass noun

Jemez Mountains
Changed "in New Mexico and one in AZ(Hano Tewa)" to "in New Mexico and Arizona"; spacing and abbreviation use were incorrect, and it seems unnecessary and contrary to the tone of the article to explain which Arizona pueblo speaks Tewa, given that this is an article about volcanoes

Added the synonym "stratovolcano" to "composite volcano" phrase in the first paragraph as "composite volcano" may be unclear and "stratovolcano" is both the article to which the link connects and is a more-frequently-used term
