The article is very interesting, educational and generally very good, although it will benefit from a more academic style of writing. First of all, it requires more references. Occasionally, one stumbles on inconclusive statements, for instance, the bombing in 1935 (see below). I see here several

OK I may have jumped the gun a bit by putting this to PR before starting work. Upon close inspection what's there is definitely salvageable, but the issue is that there's a lot of holes, both in content and sourcing. So it's going to need extensive work either way (not that I didn't already know

that). I plan to rework the article and then ask you guys' opinions once more. Until then, thanks for the comments! (I'll leave this open for a bit longer to get people's quips in; the quick response very much surprised me, but I suppose that's what you get when you've been here long enough).
255:
Your "Wilkes expedition" reads like a novel. It would be great and would make the entire article more interesting if you could similarly add some more facts and details to the earlier ascents. For "Today", one could, perhaps, add a map showing the existing trails for those who plan to

The structure of the article. It looks to me that your first goal was to describe the volcano and the specifics of its activity. To maintain the focus on the subject, I suggest moving "Climate" and "Ascents" further to the end of the

I suggest working on the sentence "It is sometimes reported that missionary Joseph Goodrich ...". "Sometimes" is perhaps not the best word. "Several sources" is closer to the intended meaning. References to those reports would help,

Section "Hazards", last sentence of the first paragraph: It is unclear why towns build on the recent lava deposits are in particular danger. Is it because lava of future eruptions is likely to follow the same

Actually I see a few unreferenced paras here and there. Start with them. I suspect you'll find other info to add and some that might need rewording. Once fully sourced then we can start with the copyediting.
170:. I know it's received a review already, in January, but I'd like some experienced editors to jump on this and tell me about what I need to do to get a GA nom, or maybe preserve that star. 167: 263:
In "Historic eruptions", paragraph 4, air force is would be more descriptive than air power. Did the bombing described successful in diverting the path of lava?
89: 38: 266:
The first paragraph of "Current activity" requires a reference. Also, the term of inflation in the context of volcano activity needs to be defined.

The last paragraph under "Structure" (beginning with Tradewinds) seems to belong to "Climate" rather than to "Structure".

I recommend adding to the introduction the fact that since 1832 there were 32 eruptions documented.
186: 175: 278: 252:. I also suggest to find an appropriate place for this paragraph in the section "Ascents". 214:

I agree with Casliber on suggested additions to the first paragraph of

Amalgamate one and two sentence segments into more cohesive paras.

An American visit in 1840 turned into a trip of almost a month.
