@Vagabond nanoda, thank you, I have made that change. Would you happen to know the elevation for the Onsen Unzen Hell area? Netherzone (talk) 13:35, 26 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It's 680m according to the "Terrain" option on Google maps, the 680m contour line passing right beneath the point of the pin as placed by your updated coordinates (nice!). More generally, "700m" according to <https://www.furusato-tax.jp/feature/detail/42213/6659>. The reference data would be: {cite web |url=https://www.furusato-tax.jp/feature/detail/42213/6659> |title=山と海、異なる２つの温泉と自然を堪能できる歴史ある「雲仙温泉郷」 |author= |date=2012 |website=Furusato Choice |publisher=Trustbank |access-date=December 26, 2023 |language=ja |trans-title=Mountains and Sea: Historical Unzen Onzen Villages: Two Different Naturally Satisfying Onsen} Vagabond nanoda (talk) 16:31, 26 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Vagabond nanoda, thank you so much for your help with this, I appreciate it. This is a place in Japan I hope to travel to some day, it looks absolutely fascinating. I also briefly looked at the list articles you created, and when my time frees up I'll give them a read. You work on interesting things; glad to "meet" you here, see you around!
