Section on topographic data

So, uh, I don't really want to remove this stuff wholesale but this: The height of the nearest key col is 4624 meters).[1] so its prominence is 1391 meters. Uturunco is listed as mountain subrange, based on the Dominance system [2] and its dominance is 23.13%. Its parent peak is Pili and the Topographic isolation is 122.6 kilometers. [3] feels like too much intricate detail for a general page on a volcano and some of the sources don't appear to support the claims. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 09:35, 9 August 2021 (UTC)Reply

Removed these notes and the prominence data[4] because the discussion here was rather ambiguous on whether we should keep these sources [a][b]
