ALT1 ... that Licancabur volcano (pictured), despite being smaller than many neighbouring volcanoes, stands out among them? "This is lower than the height of many other peaks in the vicinity, yet Licancabur dominates the landscape. Its lone, perfect cone commands respect"

Improved to Good Article status by Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk). Self-nominated at 10:15, 11 January 2017 (UTC).

  • @Jo-Jo Eumerus: The hook needs to be changed a little bit. It needs some commas added and it also needs the word "the" added before "Licancabur". The "(pictured)" also needs to be moved to after "volcano". After you make these changes, I'll give the article a full review. PhilrocMy contribs 17:23, 13 January 2017 (UTC)

Um, @Philroc: The source text is not part of the citation. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 20:59, 13 January 2017 (UTC)
@Jo-Jo Eumerus: Sorry. Please keep in mind that I am a new reviewer. PhilrocMy contribs 21:00, 13 January 2017 (UTC)
Not sure if this is a possibility, but since the hook was pulled at WP:ERRORS for being inaccurate (outdated information in the source) there may be two subsitute hooks:
  • New reviewer needed to do a full re-review. This ran for two hours and four minutes on the main page before being pulled; under the circumstances of having been done by a novice reviewer, when a more experienced one might well have picked up on the discrepancy that caused it to be pulled, I'm calling for a complete new review. There was also a question as to why Licancabur "stands out" in the WP:ERRORS discussion, so ALT2 may have issues. I have struck the original hooks, since the issue was that while Licancabur may be somewhat shorter than other peaks in the vicinity, it is not shorter than nearby volcanoes. I have also replaced the image here with the one that was initially promoted. (If the hook had run significantly longer, I'd be closing this instead.) BlueMoonset (talk) 01:06, 27 February 2017 (UTC)
  • BlueMoonset, I accept ALT3. (Well, on good faith that it's verified, since I cannot see the source...) Drmies (talk) 02:47, 18 March 2017 (UTC)
  • Drmies, looks like you're saying this should get an AGF tick. Since you did the checking, you're the one who needs to provide the tick that will approve this nomination for eventual promotion. BlueMoonset (talk) 04:30, 18 March 2017 (UTC)
