"The Peruvian population consists of 69 llamas and one very lonely redditor. The main spoken language is Klingon, although a significant number of Peruvians speak l33t or other chatspeak languages. This mixture of pop culture has resulted in a wide diversity of lolcats in fields such as art, memes, cuisine, literature, and music."
As amusing as this was to read, I'm thinking maybe this isn't the correct tone for a Wikipedia article. At least, not without some citations to back this up.--dkamouflage 18:00, 17 May 2013 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dkamouflage ( talk • contribs)
I have a question... As far as I'm concerned, Peruvian law specifies that the state flag (the one on the article) shall only be used for government affairs, while the civil flag (without coat of arms) is to be used elsewhere; in fact, the civil flag is the one used in both the Spanish article for " Peru" and the English article for " Flag of Peru". So, shouldn't the civil flag be featured on the infobox instead of the state flag? -- Fluence ( talk) 22:14, 11 May 2014 (UTC)
@ N0n3up: I have been following your edits for quite some time, but have been unable to make a comment until you started editing sections outside of history. Your effort in improving the article is much appreciated, but I see that you are deleting valid references and going against the article's WP:SUMMARY and WP:MOSIM (see also Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Images). Please cease from making further edits to the article until you have a clear understanding of these guidelines. Regards.-- MarshalN20 Talk 22:50, 29 July 2014 (UTC)
{{yo|User:MarshalN20} I saw you reverted yourself because your edit included that of the History session. Why did you revert yourself if your edits seemed valid? ( N0n3up ( talk) 01:08, 30 July 2014 (UTC))
@ MarshalN20: Thanks for the advice, I appreciate it :)( N0n3up ( talk) 01:52, 30 July 2014 (UTC))
@ MarshalN20: Thanks, I'll have a look more into it. ( N0n3up ( talk) 18:44, 30 July 2014 (UTC))
I've found some WP:Plagiarism in the section on language from the same new editor User:N0n3up who I'm sure is working in good faith to improve this article but unsurprisingly isn't up to speed on how we work. The source is a US document at [4] which isn't copyright. Dougweller ( talk) 10:57, 5 August 2014 (UTC)

1.178.154.216 ( talk) 15:33, 13 December 2014 (UTC) Hi,
The Ceviche pic is not right, because the pic contains an ingredient that is not typical of ceviche. (Ceviche does not contain seeweed/yuyo.) Seeweed is not used in peru at all.
Please replace the pic with a real pic.
We have seen in Peru a persistent attempt by the Japanese to change Peru's gastronomic history in order to try to claim a link to Peru and its culture.
I am 100% peruvian.

The map that appears as being "from the mid 1820's" is in fact a map made in Colombia by the times this country was at war with Peru. Does not reflect the actual claims of Peruvian territory by those times, and Tubmbes, Jaen and Maynas appear as "Ecuadorian" (in a year when Ecuador did not even exist) the map is inaccurate, biased and chauvinist, and what's worst, places Peruvian cities (Jaen, Iquitos, etc) that have been 100% Peruvian since ancient times, in foreign territory. Please replace that map. The page is protected, so I can not edit anything. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.235.144.147 ( talk) 06:16, 26 December 2014 (UTC)

I am having difficulty making sense of this sentence in the lead: "Peru is an extremely biodiverse country with habitats ranging from the arid plains of the Pacific coastal region in the west to the peaks of the Andes mountains vertically extending from the north to the southeast of the country to the tropical Amazon Basin rainforest in the east with the Amazon river". I'm asking here since it isn't clear to me how to fix it. Gracias, Awien ( talk) 16:25, 13 May 2015 (UTC)
