Currently the wiki states that only nodes should be used, and while I agree that nodes might be a preliminary way of mapping, I think that typically volcanos are bigger than just a point, and would merit an area to be mapped.
I think we need to disambiguate calderas from peaks. Mount Saint Helens has a peak, but it's a high point in the rim of an enormously prominent caldera. Conversely, Mount Hood has a prominent peak clearly used as a landmark (it even appears, as viewed from Portland, on the last Oregon driver's license I held). But I don't think I could point out it's caldera standing on the thing, even considering how much the glaciers have melted since I was on it last over 15 years ago.
