Thank you for this nice welcome. Well, I'm mainly working on the WP:de and WP:nds. So don't expect me to contribute very often, here. --Iwoelbern 21:39, 25 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hotspots.jpg image

Thank you for creating the image "Hotspots.jpg", which is used in the hotspot (geology) article of English Wikipedia. The description states that it is based on published work by B. Steinberger. Can you please give me more detailed references? Thank you. GeoWriter 11:24, 11 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Could you add the Anahim hotspot in central British Columbia, Canada on this image? Thanks. Black Tusk 06:23, 13 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hello everybody! @GeoWriter: Yes, of course. I will insert more detailed information at the description page in Commons.

Thanks for adding the reference GeoWriter 23:37, 14 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

@BlackTusk: I also could add the hotspot you mentioned, but I haven't heard of it before. So I would need the coordinates, some more details and - most important - a reference... --Iwoelbern 09:59, 14 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Here are the coordinates for the hotspot 52°54′0″N 123°44′0″W / 52.90000°N 123.73333°W. During the Tertary epoch, the Anahim hotspot created giant dike swarms which probably mark the first arrival of the hotspot. During the early to middle Miocene, the Coast Mountains were favored thermally-driven uplift arising from the Miocene passage of the Anahim hotspot beneath the range.(reference) The hotspot has created a line of volcanoes called the Anahim Volcanic Belt, which stretches from the coast of British Columbia, to the Interior Plateau near Quesnel. The volcanoes generally get younger along a line from the coast to the interior. The hotspot created the Nazko Cone about 7000 years ago which is the youngest Anahim volcano.

done! --Iwoelbern 17:05, 15 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

WikiProject Cape Verde

Hi! I’ve seen that you take an interest on Cape Verde. Have you ever considered joining the Project Cape Verde? Your help would be very wellcome. Ten Islands (talk) 13:51, 12 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! Well, I mostly work on other Wikipedias and only spend little time here. Therefore, I wouldn#t be of much help. Thanks anyway... --Iwoelbern (talk) 20:33, 22 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
