In general, the article looks to be in good shape. I do need to complete at least another read-through or two for any stylistic concerns, etc.
Having finished my last read-through of this article mentioned above, I am going to pass it to GA status. I realize this is often not the norm for GA Reviews so I'd like to explain a little further - I just can't find anything really wrong with it, certainly not enough to deny it being named a GA.
My only notes for future improvements is a personal preference to add some human history and maybe natural history to articles about geography. Is the mountain part of any local traditions or festivals? Does it figure in local stories or myths? Are there any rare flowers or plants that grow around the sulfur vents? I understand that human bits are probably not the norm for many of Wikipedia's articles on geographic subjects but our readership comes from many different walks of life and many different areas of the world. If there's some information in an article and it gets people to think a different way about their surroundings - that's not just a mountain made of cold rock, it's a place where many believe the ancestors live (and so on) - then that is a good thing.

Last eruption

In the article it's stated that the mountain last erupted in 1993. But according to this Iranian website (Please translate it) and other Persian sources, magma flew out of the ground in 2015 near the city of Mirjaveh (about two years after the 2013 Saravan earthquake). Can we relate this magma flow to Mount Taftan and hence, update the last eruption part? Aminabzz (talk) 20:32, 4 November 2022 (UTC)
