A simple mention warrants an article? I think not. Ross Island article can simply have a wikipedia link to Mount Erebus.

::::Ok, ''Bro''. I'll play by your rule. Notability policy requires that <code>"Significant coverage" means that sources address the subject directly in detail, and no original research is needed to extract the content. Significant coverage is more than a trivial mention but it need not be the main topic of the source material. In short, apply the "Trivial" test.</code> This article does not meet this test; it's trivial, mentioned in a single sentence, and pretty much of it can be covered in Ross Island article. So, ''bro'', how 'bout it?
