I've listed this article about a volcano group in British Columbia, Canada, for peer review because I plan on bringing it to FA class. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

@ Volcanoguy: It has been over a month since the last comment. Are you still interested in receiving feedback? If so, I would suggest asking for feedback on the Wikiprojects attached to this article and asking Sandy if they still want to review this. Z1720 ( talk) 15:40, 16 September 2023 (UTC)
There are two background sections; find a way to re-name one of them so there are unique sub-headings? (I suggest removing the first "background" sub-heading under the geography section-- it is implied by leaving it off. SandyGeorgia ( Talk) 14:56, 21 September 2023 (UTC)
Would it make sense to shorten each of these sub-sections:

ACK with footnote 10; I know it would be a ton of work, but can those be converted to sfn or some such, so that one would know where to find each piece ? SandyGeorgia ( Talk) 15:09, 21 September 2023 (UTC)
Similar with:
Should those be converted to sfns for identification of individual page numbers? Also 1280–1284, 1286–1287, 1291–1293 ? Work is lessened by using section headings as I did at Dementia with Lewy bodies#References. SandyGeorgia ( Talk) 15:14, 21 September 2023 (UTC)

Could sfns be used to better specify which info is on which page? Also 140, 143–150, 153. SandyGeorgia ( Talk) 15:37, 21 September 2023 (UTC)
WP:SIZE: 14,600 words of readable prose! (So far, everything is looking excellent, but now I start reading-- will be watching for where you might create a sub-article as I read). SandyGeorgia ( Talk) 15:19, 21 September 2023 (UTC)
The prose is quite competent and a pleasure to read; please feel free to revert anything I change. I have just started and may not get through the rest quickly, as I am getting on a plane shortly. SandyGeorgia ( Talk) 15:39, 21 September 2023 (UTC)
Because this is the first occurrence within the body of the article, should MEVC be spelled out? 15:32, 21 September 2023 (UTC)
Not a geologist, but don't understand why Central volcanoes is Geography rather than Geology. SandyGeorgia ( Talk) 18:07, 21 September 2023 (UTC)
"Include"? Are there others? How about just "are"? If not, name the alternates? Alternative names for the Spectrum Range include the Spectrum Mountains and the Rainbow Mountains.[9] SandyGeorgia ( Talk) 18:12, 21 September 2023 (UTC)
I think I'll stop here for now because the writing is quite competent-- my changes are mostly personal preference. I'm more interested in how the size can be cut down; I see potential here for three FAs: Geography of Mount Edziza volcanic complex, Geology of Mount Edziza volcanic complex, and Mount Edziza volcanic complex, using summary style. SandyGeorgia ( Talk) 18:15, 21 September 2023 (UTC)
I've been uncertain about the article title since I created this article in 2008. I know the Wikipedia convention is to use the more commonly-used name per WP:COMMONNAME but sources variously spell the name of this feature as the Mount Edziza volcanic complex or the Mount Edziza Volcanic Complex and I'm not sure which one is more appropriate. I checked to see if Wikipedia has a naming convention for geologic names but there doesn't seem to be one; the closest I could find was one for geographic names. Wikipedia articles are also inconsistent. For example, Topo Volcanic Complex, Dieng Volcanic Complex, Ancud Volcanic Complex, Newbury Volcanic Complex, Akan Volcanic Complex, Doña Juana-Cascabel Volcanic Complex, Lynn Volcanic Complex and Mattapan Volcanic Complex are fully capitalized while Altiplano–Puna volcanic complex, Apacheta-Aguilucho volcanic complex, Pairique volcanic complex, Pinos volcanic complex, Paipa-Iza volcanic complex, Ujlān volcanic complex and Rincon volcanic complex aren't fully capitalized. Most Google Scholar sources for the Mount Edziza volcanic complex seem to use Mount Edziza volcanic complex but a good portion of them also use Mount Edziza Volcanic Complex. The Lexicon of Canadian Geologic Units also uses Mount Edziza Volcanic Complex. What should be done here? Volcano guy 19:48, 19 September 2023 (UTC)
