What constitutes an eruption?[edit]

Is an eruption defined by juvenile magmatic material coming out of the vent?

If so, I'm not sure that either the 2004 activity or the 2000 activity qualify. In fact, the last *definitive* eruption of Shishaldin was 1999. Idocrase 18:34, 21 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Four years to add the image[edit]

I was just looking at this article because I am somewhat interested in the topic, and I realized that there was a file suddenly listed in the text without showing up. I added brackets, and put the description inside and now the image shows up. It should not have taken nearly four years for someone to realize the issue. I don't know what project is responsible for this article, but it is clear that a lot of work has to be done.--Kew Gardens 613 (talk) 00:51, 8 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
