From an anonymous contributor:

Aconcagua is not the highest point in Chile!! Nevado Ojos del Salvado is!! Its is actually the higest volcano in the world reaching 6,880m!!!

These maps would give at least the benefit of the doubt to the Chilean POV.

Does this nation have political subdivisions? Think that should be part of its "geography"? -Laikalynx (talk) 03:36, 24 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm Mae. I added the Heading for People of Chile onto the actual article. We can use this section for info relating to anything we learned in our Population Geography Unit in class. I've added the life expectancy and Population growth with sources from the websites linked on blackboard. We can also search for different maps of Chile and its population densities, total fertility rate or anything else related to population geography.

I will be adding a section for demographics to expand on the population geography of Chile.Maria tudora (talk) 22:50, 1 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I added an urban population geography section and will begin to expand on the women population of Chile as well.Maria tudora (talk) 16:16, 9 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

"During the twentieth century, Chile has been struck by twenty-eight major earthquakes... The strongest of these occurred in 2010..." 2010 was not in the twentieth century. Dgndenver (talk) 09:53, 3 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Haha this is very funny! 2601:88:8002:1CD0:6083:3AF:B58A:A7AC (talk) 20:05, 27 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I've made some attempts to rewrite a portion of this section about the tectonic plate movement, however, I feel like I lack the necessary knowlege or experience to put it together cohesively. Much of it is covered in Geology of Chile so going too far in to it may fall under WP:COAT. Regardless of the subject matter, the over all quality of this section needs improvement. I'll do what I can to tone down the puffery.

I have some references that I can share if that helps.
