It is important that volcano names which begin with "Mount" or "Volcán" or some such words are sorted based on their actual name, not the generic prefix. The easiest way to ensure this for all categories in an article is to place the magic word {{DEFAULTSORT:<sort key>}} before the category tags. This will apply the sort key to all categories at once, without having to enter something like "|Rainier, Mount" in several category tags. See Template:DEFAULTSORT for more info.
