Society hotspot
My previous edit was deleted because it was assumed I was promoting tectonic interpretations. This was not my intention. I realise that my edits fell short of requirements that majority views be given more attention and have re-done the edits to rectify this issue. I have gone into more detail about plumes, discussing more evidence and citing more literature. I have removed references to mantleplumes.org and Foulger’s textbook and have stated that plume interpretations are the majority view.

Plate theory (volcanism)
This is a new page on a theory of volcanism which has become increasingly prominent - and increasingly popular - during the last two decades. Unlike the rival plume theory, the plate theory does not have a Wikipedia page, so I have created one.
