I just created a stub for our national flower, the ceibo (actually that's a redirect to Erythrina crista-galli). I took most of it from the Spanish Wikipedia ( es:Ceibo). On doing this, and after translating several National parks of Argentina articles, I realized that we need translators (or at least helpful bilingual people) with a background on botany, zoology, ecology and similar. Otherwise we're missing very good descriptive content. -- Pablo D. Flores 12:35, 12 August 2005 (UTC)
Known Argentine vandal author of VFD:Rana lechuza, VDF:Blue tiger, VFD:Vandera, VFD:Pumpkin spoof, VFD:Gauchos Pesados, VFD:Glamorous cumbia and God knows what else, brought as a new artice: Eduardito De La Puentes. Please, do not move this page to Eduardo de la Puente if you would like to fix it in order match the journalist, but rather create a new article so this can be deleted and the hoax is not kept in the history. Thank you very much, Mariano 08:29, 16 August 2005 (UTC)
People, I propose we nominate Mariano for adminship. He has the experience and the required # of edits to be an admin, besides, it will come useful for all the edits he's doing. See here Administrators.
If we get some kind of agreement in this page, I'll propose the nomination on Requests for adminship.
-- Sebastian Kessel 16:49, 22 August 2005 (UTC)
Pablo's message was enough for me :). He is nominated in Requests for adminship, if you wish, please show support. -- Sebastian Kessel 16:06, 23 August 2005 (UTC)
I've created two new categories:
[[Category:Boca Juniors footballers]] and [[Category:Footballers in Argentina by club]]
I've mimicked the Spanish hierarchy for this (see [[Category:Footballers in Spain by club]]), and even when we do have [[Category:Argentine footballers]], the former one should group them by club, whereas the latter just shows that they are from Argentina.
People willing to help categorize all football players by their club is more than welcome.
PS: Thanks for the tip. -- Sebastian Kessel 18:31, 24 August 2005 (UTC)
Does anybody know why Glamorous cumbia was undeleted? -- Pablo D. Flores ( Talk) 22:12, 27 August 2005 (UTC)
I just noticed that Glamorous cumbia has a German counterpart. Anyone who reads German and who can check what the people over there wrote or translated, and leave a message? -- Pablo D. Flores ( Talk) 10:28, 1 September 2005 (UTC)
I want to thank Sebastian for the nomination, and all those who voted took a minute to vote at Requests for adminship . I hope I will fulfil your expectations.
On the other hand, I'm afraid that, starting today, I will take a Leave of Absence on a last-minute all-of-the-sudden imperative "mission to take pictures in order to make them freely available at the Wikipedia" (a.k.a. "vacas"). I don't know if I will be able to get my hands on a computer, but I might be only for an hour or so. I'll be back next wednesday (7th) or thursday.

Hi, everybody, Tcalle has created Argentinian Legal System. It is a prime candidate for VfD unless we really improve it. I tidied up a little bit, but I'm going to need lots of help building it... Maybe we should contact User:Tcalle, to help. He probably has some ideas in mind.

I propose we adopt a standard format for articles on elections. We have Argentine presidential election, 2003 and then Elections in Argentina has a number of red links named Argentine elections, YYYY. Now a gazillion articles link to the 2003 elections article, but most do so through {{ Politics of Argentina}}, so changing the template will solve the redirect problem.

Hey, guys I'm going to Football Database [2] and getting stats on all Argentine Football players. I already did A-B (going alphabetically) and added the infobox to those players who I have stats for. Once I finish with the ones this site has stats for, I'll do some research and finish the rest. Help is appreciated. :)
PS: If you continue, please do it alphabetically and let us know where you finished so we can do it in an organized way.
-- Sebastian Kessel Talk 18:25, 22 September 2005 (UTC)
Is it really redundant to have a table of goals per season?
The current scheme has only goals per team, so if the player stays 3 seasons in one team we know how many matches and goals he had in those 3 years, but not for the season specifically.

Guys, this page is evolving from a "Notice Board" to a project. Shouldn't we move some of the content to Wikipedia:WikiProject Latin America countries, or create a Wikipedia:Wikiproject Argentina?
Just an idea.
-- Sebastian Kessel Talk 18:12, 13 September 2005 (UTC)
support project. poco a poco things will be filled. and stuff will be more structured. if one day we all leave the people that follow us will have a better idea of what was decided and why so. a NB can not fullfill this. i don't think it needs much more attention. Tobias Conradi (Talk) 12:43, 30 September 2005 (UTC)
Now that the Placebox thing is more or less settled, maybe we should create the WikiProject Argentina and also Wikipedia:Placebox or something like that. The development of the box has been a bit messy... I wrote some instructions at Template talk:Placebox-begin. Let's put everything together. How do you exactly start a WikiProject? -- Pablo D.

Hi friends, I encourage you to check the biographies of Argentine people and add them the category "People from... " (e.g.: People from Buenos Aires, Rosario, etc.). I think it would be nice :-).

Thanks in advance! -- ran ( talk) 04:11, 9 October 2005 (UTC)
from what I have seen there is a move from adjective to nouns when referring to countries. (A german newspaper is not necessarily from Germany, can be from BsAs ( Argentinisches Tageblatt), therefore Category:Something of Fooland is more clear) The following vote is about such an issue: Wikipedia:Categories for deletion/Log/2005 November 10#Category:French naval ships and sub-categories Tobias Conradi (Talk) 21:06, 15 November 2005 (UTC)
Please check this: de:Benutzer:ALE!/Bilder Presidencia Argentina. It's a user page. It has a copy of an email exchange where the webmaster of http://www.presidencia.gov.ar says that all the materials published there are for public use. And they have a lot of pictures (though uncategorized). I've uploaded a couple of them to Commons following an example I found, under the general GNU license. See for example Felisa Miceli. Should we ransack presidencia.gov.ar? I'm not very satisfied with the email; maybe we should try to write in representation of the WikiProject as a whole... -- Pablo D. Flores ( Talk) 15:01, 5 December 2005 (UTC)
Hi guys! I want to start thanking everyone for correcting my spelling/distraction mistakes. Then, I wanted to bring up a couple of unimportant things:
Well, this is of course my opinion about this topics, but I thought it would be constructive to share it with you. Comments and other ideas are more than welcome. Mariano( t/ c) 13:54, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
I've never heard of neither Alejo Parella nor band Almanso. I suspect some kind of vanity, so I wanted to ask you if you even heard of them. Otherwise, I would mark them as {{ afd}}. Mariano( t/ c) 12:01, 12 December 2005 (UTC)
Seams like an unimportant band, but they had a song on a tribute CD to New Order that seams to be real [3]. I would delete it for vanity, but can't say it's absolutely not notorious. Community: A NewOrderOnline Tribute went on AfD and made it through. Mariano( t/ c) 10:24, 15 December 2005 (UTC)
There's a very interesting red-dot location system in use in Wikipedia, of which I gain knowledge only today. You can see how to implement it at the {{ Infobox protected area}} template, as it can be seen used in the Arches National Park article. To use it, we should first create a Argentina locator blanck map (as there is a File:US Locator Blank.svg). The question that arises is: should we have one single map of the entire country, or two or more zoomed maps. Together with the hiddenStructure CSS class, we could update the {{ placebox-map}} and the {{ placebox-begin}}. Mariano( t/ c) 11:38, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
Example: Here is are two examples of the location for Ushuaia.
I created the File:Argentina - Situation map - Tierra del Fuego.png, File:Argentina - Situation map - Santa Cruz.png, File:Argentina - Situation map - Pampa y NorPatagonia.png and File:Argentina - Situation map - Noroeste.png, File:Argentina - Situation map - Mesopotamia y Santa Fe.png, File:Argentina - Situation map - Chubut.png and File:Argentina - Situation map - Buenos Aires.png, which I believe cover all the territory. This could be added to the existing template in place of the image (no need to change the template), or in a new template, 'city with locationg dot map'. Comments? Mariano( t/ c) 14:32, 14 April 2006 (UTC)
Theese are exellent news. If anyone wants I can upload the CIA map without words if to have a whole-argentina location map, but i think splitted maps are the best. I'm going to start locating. bye. Argentino ( Talk cont.) 14:41, 15 April 2006 (UTC)
PS: I noticed that the red dot's coordinates for a place are 5 pixels high and wide smaller than in the less specific circle's coordinate for the same place ( I mean, if Cordoba is in the X=10 and y=23 with the dot, it will be in x=15 and y=27 with the circle) Argentino ( Talk cont.) 14:55, 15 April 2006 (UTC)
OK, so I created the {{ Placebox-location}} template, but before we start using it we have to settle a couple of things:
Later maps (perhaps more detailed) can be added later, as far as they all have 251px of width, or with {{ Superimpose}} outside the placebox infobox. Mariano( t/ c) 10:41, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

Given the date, I started to work on this complex topic and was lost in categories. Every article on the Dirty War, the Proceso and their participants has a bunch of these, which I think should point to one Category:Dirty War and sister categories/subcategories. I believe we should draw a nice category tree where we can make our Videlas, Galtieris and Astizes fit without so much wordiness. Also, the general categories of Category:Criminals don't include many suitable subcats. -- Pablo D. Flores ( Talk) 14:02, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

I'm writing you regarding the {{ User WikiProject Argentina}} template, that many of us contributors use in our user pages. I believe it to have slowly degradated to something that doesn't represent the common ideo of the users that participate of this project. The last version by Darklegions ( talk · contribs) reads:
I have no idea what does the National Defense School, or the Military of Argentina, have to do with the contributions to the Argentine related articles. It was pointed out that {{ User uk wikipedian}} has a similar format, but I couldn't care less about it.
The purpose of this project is to contribute to Argentine related in general, and I see any connection with military out of place. You don't even need to be Argentine to participate, as contributor AntonioMartin ( talk · contribs), so nationalist reference such as "Firmly united for the Motherland" seams to me out of place. I suggest we re.write the template to a more general profile; I wouln't use it as it is right now, because I don't feel represented by it. Mariano( t/ c) 11:01, 23 March 2006 (UTC)
Could someone check this, please? I've been transferring cities and towns in Buenos Aires to Category:Cities in Buenos Aires Province and tagging them with info from the Ministry of Interior (using {{ ar-mi-muni}}). Now I don't doubt that this place exists, but the MoE says that the capital and only city in the Rivadavia Partido is Rivadavia itself, population 15,452. What exactly is América? -- Pablo D. Flores ( Talk) 12:35, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
Hi guys! I just wanted to tell you all that I'm glad we are having so many new 'not-just-another-lame-stub' articles lately. There are still a lot of topics to cover, specially in History and Geography. I know we already have a ToDo page, but it would be good to have a list of articles roughly ordered by priority, for these two separate topics. I'm afraid I have no atlas with me at the Cul d'mond, so I kindly ask you to take the time to gather that information.
At the same time, you might have read the message about the Wikipedia version 1.0. It will be hard to select the good articles, and those necessary, but we should do that some time soon. I know some of our best contributors are currently either on vacation or changing diapers, so take it easy, we can do it slowly. Mariano( t/ c) 10:15, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
Anyone ever heard of this: *.gay ??? Is it another hoax? Mariano( t/ c) 11:38, 28 April 2006 (UTC)
Never. -- Argentino 17:47, 28 April 2006 (UTC)
Well, I'm writing this but don't know if I should, maybe this is the wrong place. Anyway. I created the Template:Superimpose-text, wich allows to write over an image, and may be used for usepages, like a way to make background images, dunno, thanks for reading this and excuse me if i'm wasting your time. {{ Template: Superimpose-text |x=0 |y=0 |text=This is an example|Image name=Flag of Argentina.svg |pixel width=250 |caption=the example}}

Can we just agree to a guideline on "labeling people by origin"? Am I the only one to resent the "Croatian encroachment" we had on Maradona and Luca Prodan? The basis for both claims was speculative; even if proven true, they'd had no relevance because the careers of both men had nothing to do, not even indirectly, to anything Croatian. And I don't want to enter another round of inconveniencing Max, but hey, let's keep the proportions here, and not let some pet ideas of ours run unchecked (mine are included of course, just tell me if and when). elpincha 05:15, 20 May 2006 (UTC) (moved from WP:ARNB by Mariano( t/ c) 08:33, 24 May 2006 (UTC))

Guys, there's an über-cool article of Argentine Geography in german at de:Geographie Argentiniens (me babeo). We need somethings like that for the slim English article Geography of Argentina. Of course, machine translation ain't good enough, but it can help a bit translating it... Meine German sucks, über time. Mariano( t/ c) 07:47, 7 June 2006 (UTC)
I've been meaning to write about this for a while, and this seems a good time to do it... I think many of the "XYZ Partido" articles, especially the ones not yet written, should be merged with the articles about the corresponding cities. I mean, in most cases, a partido only has one city plus many minor towns, villages and other things not clearly distinguished in official sources. Since a partido is technically a municipality, shouldn't we redirect the partido articles to their head cities' articles when there's only one proper "city" in them? The same would be probably a good idea in the case of many provincial departments, especially those that are not very populous or notable — when you go look for data on the head towns, their official websites speak about the departments as a whole. This is why, in my maniac tagging with placeboxes, in many cases I've chosen to leave the department name unwikilinked. — Pablo D. Flores ( Talk) 00:29, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

Hello, I'm attempting to clean up some messes on WP and have come across one I'm hoping you may be able to help me with. Please see Argentine rock, reference # 40, which currently looks like this
Polimeni, Carlos (2000). Demasiado Artista. Sony Discos. ISBN 0-376-28369-424.
As I understand things, if this item has an ISBN, it is an invalid ISBN because it is too long. My hunch, though, is that Sony Discos produces sound recordings, so this item may not have an ISBN at all. Might you be more clever than me at figuring out what is going on here? I'd like to find either a valid ISBN that goes with this book, or better identifying information so if this is a CD or DVD or something an average reader would be able to locate the source. Thanks for any help you can give. Kind Regards, Keesiewonder 02:15, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

Y por eso escribo en castilla. En vez de aportar a los articulos, se la pasan agregando categorias que no le interesan a nadie (salvo a los editores) tipo articulos que les falta tal cosa, articulos con relleno de pavita, etc. Y agregan un monton de boxes a las paginas de talk, calificando a los articulos. Las calificaciones son mas POV que un discurso de Hugo Chavez. Por ejemplo, tengo para mi que los articulos sobre Balvanera y Carlos Bilardo son excelentes, y si alguien piensa lo contrario, que aporte.

Hi
I believe that we really need to sort something out for Argentine football, the coverage is really recentist, hardly any of the great players from before the 80s have articles. Also people keep adding and removing players from the current squads without using the players in and players out subheadings and adding seemingly made up players. The Argentine Primera is miles behind even League 2 (4th Level) in sunny England in terms of the number of players with articles and the quality of team articles. There has been discussion of forming Wikiproject:Argentine football. If I can get some support here i will try and set it up. If it does happen we can keep track of when squads have been updated, players needing articles, good online source material, Argentine players playing abroad, what needs to be done etc. Let me know if you're interested, Regards, King of the North East 22:43, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

Guys, I started a conversation regarding the naming of the article Re-establishment of British rule on the Falklands (1833), and would like to hear your oppinion on the posibility of renaming it to Surrender of the Falkland Islands of 1833 or something similar. Basically, I believe that the current title suggest the British restored some legitimate ruling, whereas a surrender would mean they had to be [temporarly] left behind by the Argentines against their will.

Hello! I am here because I am worried about an article that is not neutral in Wikipedia. I'm talking about de biography of Jorge Horacio Brito. I was following the case and there are a couple of users that is using Wikipedia to link him to relevant corruption cases, but only based on a couple of media article. There was no judicial decision to establish if Brito is guilty or not yet, so this allegations are not "serious" information yet, apart from the article is written in a very biased and misleading way that does no respect the neutrality that Wikipedia has. I saw that some users tried to neutralize the article but were accused of sockpuppeting and hence their chances were removed. I noticed that there is a strong interest of those users in having those corruption allegations stated in Wikipedia despite there are only accusations, but nothing is clear yet. I "neutralized" the article and erased all the accusations and the changes were undone in a couple of minutes. This is the actual version of the article: Jorge Horacio Brito This is my "netrualized" version, now reverted: Special:PermanentLink/682809052 This situation in my opinion damages Brito's reputation wihtout any reason. I want to ask you if you can help me to support the neutral version of the article. If many of us reject the biased version of the article we could keep Wikipedia "clean" of this kind of misleading content. I really want to thank you for your help.

I'm working on Goat tower and I have heard there is another in Argentina at Fínca el Rocio, Villa Belgrano, Córdoba, Argentine. From http://armchairtravelogue.blogspot.com/2015/06/goat-towers-around-world.html : "This is second Goat Tower (after the Ekeby tower, Norway) to be modelled after the Fairview tower, Paarl, South Africa. Owner of Fínca el Rocio had requested Fairview for the designs of Goat Tower and they sent him the designs they had prepared for Ekeby. The tower was completed in October 2010. Initially the goats didn't use the tower and had to pushed to walk up. The goats were however lured up by keeping their food (corn) at higher level. In words of the owner; "... only the hungriest walk up in the beginning, but now they happily go up and down!" (Source Fairview's Blog)" Can anyone find a mention of this goat tower? I'd love to include mention of it in the article, but I'm not finding it anywhere. Thanks! --valereee ( talk) 23:44, 30 December 2019 (UTC)

I just created a stub for our national flower, the ceibo (actually that's a redirect to Erythrina crista-galli). I took most of it from the Spanish Wikipedia ( es:Ceibo). On doing this, and after translating several National parks of Argentina articles, I realized that we need translators (or at least helpful bilingual people) with a background on botany, zoology, ecology and similar. Otherwise we're missing very good descriptive content. -- Pablo D. Flores 12:35, 12 August 2005 (UTC)

People, I propose we nominate Mariano for adminship. He has the experience and the required # of edits to be an admin, besides, it will come useful for all the edits he's doing. See here Administrators.
If we get some kind of agreement in this page, I'll propose the nomination on Requests for adminship.

I've created two new categories:
[[Category:Boca Juniors footballers]] and [[Category:Footballers in Argentina by club]]
I've mimicked the Spanish hierarchy for this (see [[Category:Footballers in Spain by club]]), and even when we do have [[Category:Argentine footballers]], the former one should group them by club, whereas the latter just shows that they are from Argentina.
People willing to help categorize all football players by their club is more than welcome.

Is it really redundant to have a table of goals per season?
The current scheme has only goals per team, so if the player stays 3 seasons in one team we know how many matches and goals he had in those 3 years, but not for the season specifically.

from what I have seen there is a move from adjective to nouns when referring to countries.

Hi guys! I want to start thanking everyone for correcting my spelling/distraction mistakes. Then, I wanted to bring up a couple of unimportant things:
Well, this is of course my opinion about this topics, but I thought it would be constructive to share it with you. Comments and other ideas are more than welcome. Mariano( t/ c) 13:54, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
I've never heard of neither Alejo Parella nor band Almanso. I suspect some kind of vanity, so I wanted to ask you if you even heard of them. Otherwise, I would mark them as {{ afd}}. Mariano( t/ c) 12:01, 12 December 2005 (UTC)
Seams like an unimportant band, but they had a song on a tribute CD to New Order that seams to be real [3]. I would delete it for vanity, but can't say it's absolutely not notorious. Community: A NewOrderOnline Tribute went on AfD and made it through. Mariano( t/ c) 10:24, 15 December 2005 (UTC)
There's a very interesting red-dot location system in use in Wikipedia, of which I gain knowledge only today. You can see how to implement it at the {{ Infobox protected area}} template, as it can be seen used in the Arches National Park article. To use it, we should first create a Argentina locator blanck map (as there is a File:US Locator Blank.svg). The question that arises is: should we have one single map of the entire country, or two or more zoomed maps. Together with the hiddenStructure CSS class, we could update the {{ placebox-map}} and the {{ placebox-begin}}. Mariano( t/ c) 11:38, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
Example: Here is are two examples of the location for Ushuaia.
I created the File:Argentina - Situation map - Tierra del Fuego.png, File:Argentina - Situation map - Santa Cruz.png, File:Argentina - Situation map - Pampa y NorPatagonia.png and File:Argentina - Situation map - Noroeste.png, File:Argentina - Situation map - Mesopotamia y Santa Fe.png, File:Argentina - Situation map - Chubut.png and File:Argentina - Situation map - Buenos Aires.png, which I believe cover all the territory. This could be added to the existing template in place of the image (no need to change the template), or in a new template, 'city with locationg dot map'. Comments? Mariano( t/ c) 14:32, 14 April 2006 (UTC)
Theese are exellent news. If anyone wants I can upload the CIA map without words if to have a whole-argentina location map, but i think splitted maps are the best. I'm going to start locating. bye. Argentino ( Talk cont.) 14:41, 15 April 2006 (UTC)
PS: I noticed that the red dot's coordinates for a place are 5 pixels high and wide smaller than in the less specific circle's coordinate for the same place ( I mean, if Cordoba is in the X=10 and y=23 with the dot, it will be in x=15 and y=27 with the circle) Argentino ( Talk cont.) 14:55, 15 April 2006 (UTC)
OK, so I created the {{ Placebox-location}} template, but before we start using it we have to settle a couple of things:
Later maps (perhaps more detailed) can be added later, as far as they all have 251px of width, or with {{ Superimpose}} outside the placebox infobox. Mariano( t/ c) 10:41, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

Given the date, I started to work on this complex topic and was lost in categories. Every article on the Dirty War, the Proceso and their participants has a bunch of these, which I think should point to one Category:Dirty War and sister categories/subcategories.

I'm writing you regarding the {{ User WikiProject Argentina}} template, that many of us contributors use in our user pages. I believe it to have slowly degradated to something that doesn't represent the common ideo of the users that participate of this project. The last version by Darklegions ( talk · contribs) reads:
I have no idea what does the National Defense School, or the Military of Argentina, have to do with the contributions to the Argentine related articles. It was pointed out that {{ User uk wikipedian}} has a similar format, but I couldn't care less about it.
The purpose of this project is to contribute to Argentine related in general, and I see any connection with military out of place. You don't even need to be Argentine to participate, as contributor AntonioMartin ( talk · contribs), so nationalist reference such as "Firmly united for the Motherland" seams to me out of place. I suggest we re.write the template to a more general profile; I wouln't use it as it is right now, because I don't feel represented by it. Mariano( t/ c) 11:01, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

I've been transferring cities and towns in Buenos Aires to Category:Cities in Buenos Aires Province and tagging them with info from the Ministry of Interior (using {{ ar-mi-muni}}).

Hi guys! I just wanted to tell you all that I'm glad we are having so many new 'not-just-another-lame-stub' articles lately. There are still a lot of topics to cover, specially in History and Geography. I know we already have a ToDo page, but it would be good to have a list of articles roughly ordered by priority, for these two separate topics. I'm afraid I have no atlas with me at the Cul d'mond, so I kindly ask you to take the time to gather that information.
At the same time, you might have read the message about the Wikipedia version 1.0. It will be hard to select the good articles, and those necessary, but we should do that some time soon. I know some of our best contributors are currently either on vacation or changing diapers, so take it easy, we can do it slowly. Mariano( t/ c) 10:15, 12 April 2006 (UTC)

Can we just agree to a guideline on "labeling people by origin"? Am I the only one to resent the "Croatian encroachment" we had on Maradona and Luca Prodan?

I've been meaning to write about this for a while, and this seems a good time to do it... I think many of the "XYZ Partido" articles, especially the ones not yet written, should be merged with the articles about the corresponding cities. I mean, in most cases, a partido only has one city plus many minor towns, villages and other things not clearly distinguished in official sources. Since a partido is technically a municipality, shouldn't we redirect the partido articles to their head cities' articles when there's only one proper "city" in them? The same would be probably a good idea in the case of many provincial departments, especially those that are not very populous or notable — when you go look for data on the head towns, their official websites speak about the departments as a whole. This is why, in my maniac tagging with placeboxes, in many cases I've chosen to leave the department name unwikilinked. — Pablo D. Flores ( Talk) 00:29, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

Polimeni, Carlos (2000). Demasiado Artista. Sony Discos. ISBN 0-376-28369-424.
As I understand things, if this item has an ISBN, it is an invalid ISBN because it is too long. My hunch, though, is that Sony Discos produces sound recordings, so this item may not have an ISBN at all. Might you be more clever than me at figuring out what is going on here? I'd like to find either a valid ISBN that goes with this book, or better identifying information so if this is a CD or DVD or something an average reader would be able to locate the source.

Hi
I believe that we really need to sort something out for Argentine football, the coverage is really recentist, hardly any of the great players from before the 80s have articles. Also people keep adding and removing players from the current squads without using the players in and players out subheadings and adding seemingly made up players. The Argentine Primera is miles behind even League 2 (4th Level) in sunny England in terms of the number of players with articles and the quality of team articles. There has been discussion of forming Wikiproject:Argentine football. If I can get some support here i will try and set it up. If it does happen we can keep track of when squads have been updated, players needing articles, good online source material, Argentine players playing abroad, what needs to be done etc. Let me know if you're interested, Regards, King of the North East 22:43, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

Guys, I started a conversation regarding the naming of the article Re-establishment of British rule on the Falklands (1833), and would like to hear your oppinion on the posibility of renaming it to Surrender of the Falkland Islands of 1833 or something similar. Basically, I believe that the current title suggest the British restored some legitimate ruling, whereas a surrender would mean they had to be [temporarly] left behind by the Argentines against their will.

I've already created a draft page on 2014 Cristina Fernández de Kirchner's speech at UN. Do we need such a separate article? By the way, I need your comments and assistance to improve this article. Mhhossein ( talk) 06:52, 17 October 2014 (UTC)
I am looking for a Spanish speaking narrow gauge railway enthusiast who could help on expanding the article on the Camber Railway on the Falkland Islands according to the following references:
Hello! I am here because I am worried about an article that is not neutral in Wikipedia. I'm talking about de biography of Jorge Horacio Brito. I was following the case and there are a couple of users that is using Wikipedia to link him to relevant corruption cases, but only based on a couple of media article. There was no judicial decision to establish if Brito is guilty or not yet, so this allegations are not "serious" information yet, apart from the article is written in a very biased and misleading way that does no respect the neutrality that Wikipedia has. I saw that some users tried to neutralize the article but were accused of sockpuppeting and hence their chances were removed. I noticed that there is a strong interest of those users in having those corruption allegations stated in Wikipedia despite there are only accusations, but nothing is clear yet. I "neutralized" the article and erased all the accusations and the changes were undone in a couple of minutes. This is the actual version of the article: Jorge Horacio Brito This is my "netrualized" version, now reverted: Special:PermanentLink/682809052 This situation in my opinion damages Brito's reputation wihtout any reason. I want to ask you if you can help me to support the neutral version of the article. If many of us reject the biased version of the article we could keep Wikipedia "clean" of this kind of misleading content. I really want to thank you for your help. I won't undo the changes until I know that other users will support me because I don't want to start an edit war. There are many articles that have the same issue, like the biography of José Luis Manzano. Many thanks! -- ClufoWatson ( talk) 13:00, 28 September 2015 (UTC)

I'm working on Goat tower and I have heard there is another in Argentina at Fínca el Rocio, Villa Belgrano, Córdoba, Argentine. From http://armchairtravelogue.blogspot.com/2015/06/goat-towers-around-world.html : "This is second Goat Tower (after the Ekeby tower, Norway) to be modelled after the Fairview tower, Paarl, South Africa. Owner of Fínca el Rocio had requested Fairview for the designs of Goat Tower and they sent him the designs they had prepared for Ekeby. The tower was completed in October 2010. Initially the goats didn't use the tower and had to pushed to walk up. The goats were however lured up by keeping their food (corn) at higher level. In words of the owner; "... only the hungriest walk up in the beginning, but now they happily go up and down!" (Source Fairview's Blog)" Can anyone find a mention of this goat tower? I'd love to include mention of it in the article, but I'm not finding it anywhere. Thanks! --valereee ( talk) 23:44, 30 December 2019 (UTC)
