Falkland Islands sovereignty dispute#Argentine position on Falklanders’ citizenship to simply state that under Argentine law the people of the Falkland Islands are Argentine citizens. Whilst there are legal opinions that under the principle of
jus soli this may the case, there are other legal opinions that state the situation is not so straight forward. Equally statements by the Argentine government describe the people as an "implanted population" and "illegal" which seem at odds with the simple statement.
The discussion is going round in circles, it isn't productive and it is getting unnecessarily heated. The talk page discussion is impossible to follow with multiple issues raised, all of which engender heated discussion and reams of tendentious argument. I would hope that informal mediation may help.

There is disagreement about the coverage of the multiple viewpoints on the topic and the simple statement the two editors wish to make.
Amendment by Langus: There's two separate questions regarding this dispute:
1. Is Argentine legislation inconclusive regarding Falklanders citizenship, as currently stated?
2. Should we include a mention to a bill proposed by a respected Senator, but that has no chances of becoming law? -- Langus ( talk) 16:19, 1 July 2011 (UTC)
I believe the discussion needs structure, tackling one issue at a time. At the moment, there is a lot of shouting not much listening.
One of the things that needs to be fixed is the walls of text, with people talking past each other. Simple statements backed up by sources to support claims and take baby steps.
As this is a page about a dispute, I think simply putting both opinions would be okay. Why not? -- J (t) 14:28, 1 July 2011 (UTC)
SUBFINAL DECISION - Just put both opinions in there, as this is a page about a dispute. After all, this is Wikipedia, not Citizendium. -- J (t) 00:53, 2 July 2011 (UTC)
This is all too confusing - People are telling me this and that, but I can't figure out which is which, so I declare this case CLOSED. -- J (t) 02:19, 15 July 2011 (UTC)
I have moved the discussion, along with the statements, to the talk page for ease of use. I hope this is OK with everyone. Pfainuk talk 17:19, 4 July 2011 (UTC)
Once a discussion is moved can it ever be reactivated ?
