Propose to add Mount Spurr to the list of Alaskan Mountain Peaks

With the recent unrest at volcanic Mount Spurr, its omission from this list should probably be rectified. Mount Spurr clearly meets the criteria for inclusion with 585m of prominence and should take position 54 at an elevation of 11,070 feet. I don't have the chops to make the change in the chart, though.

Sacagawea Peaks

Someone could make a disambiguation page by looking up all the various peaks in e.g. Special:PrefixIndex/Saca. I tried to distinguish the article names a few minutes ago, but the redirects and hatnotes still need to be cleaned up. --Joy (talk) 11:04, 3 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Fram I'm not sure really sure why all the reverts at Mount Sacagawea. The average English reader probably can't really distinguish any of these mountains based on whether their name has peak or peaks or mount or g or j. I doubt even that the average reader from the northwestern United States or the average geography enthusiast can do so easily. --Joy (talk) 14:44, 3 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

"All the reverts"... Anyway, there is a hatnote, what's the actual issue? In this version, some readers will need to click through, some editors will be at the right place. In your version, no one will be at the right place, but the ones at the wrong place will only need one further click instead of two.

I see you moved Sacajawea Peaks to Sacajawea Peaks (Idaho and Montana), and redirected the former to the latter. This is not a productive edit. Fram (talk) 14:51, 3 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I disagree. By choosing to place any of these topics at any of these generally ambiguous titles we risk surprising readers. A beneficial effect of accidentally navigating some portion of readers correctly has to be weighed against a detrimental effect of having some other portion of readers frustrated that they ended up in the wrong place. --Joy (talk) 15:26, 3 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Mount Jefferson (Massachusetts)

This page has been proposed for deletion as its claimed it does not meet Wikipedia's notability requirements for a natural feature. I created this article back in 2004 based on its GNIS entry. A bit more info has been added over the years but that may not give it notability. In a google search I found the Mount Jefferson Conservation Area. The trail map linked to on that website (broken link - you can find it at archive.org) shows a "Muzzly Ridge Trail" but I cannot determine if this is referring to this Mt. Jefferson. Perhaps this page could be moved to Mount Jefferson Conservation Area and expanded to include info on the area as it's seems that would be notable. RedWolf (talk) 21:59, 28 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
