  • Portal:Argentina is in need of maintenance. Selected article and selected picture pages for the month need to be added. I can try to help but I do not have the time to be the only maintainer, though I would certainly help. More importantly, as I do not live in Argentina, I am a little removed from current events and information. Somebody local can help with this, or at least point me to interesting articles to post in the portal to keep it lively. It does not have to be changed every day as the main page is, but periodically (say once-a-month) would be nice. If somebody points me to good and relevant info I would format and post it. Any volunteers to help? (You can post a message in my Talk page or send me email if you wish) -- Alexf42 12:29, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

Thank you, WhisperToMe (talk) 01:01, 20 May 2011 (UTC)

Other[edit]

  • Could someone who knows Piazzolla's life and work please take a look at this edit in María de Buenos Aires. It's certainly not good English, and it's uncited. If it's factually correct, it should be copy edited; if not it should be reverted. I have no idea which. I figure someone here can help. - Jmabel | Talk 06:41, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
  • I really do not believe that "José Domingo Molina Gómez" is a real historical character, yet he is supposed to be a former Argentine president, not only here, but in Spanish, French and Italian wikipedia as well. Thank YouKeNNy (talk) 18:18, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

Stub types[edit]

New stub templates have been created for each of Argentina's provinces. Feel free to tag articles with them, and once each is applied to 60 articles, WikiProject Stub sorting will create a category for it. Cheers, Her Pegship (tis herself) 14:52, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

President Kirchner's speech at UN[edit]

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[edit]

Camber Railway, 1915-1922. The loco has 'Falkland Island Express' handwritten on the tank. The wooden wagon bodies carry removeable seats at each end for workmen and 1st class, 2nd class, 3rd class and 'Smoker' legends

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:

Article that does not suit Wikipedia's standards of neutrality[edit]

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: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jorge_Horacio_Brito This is my "netrualized" version, now reverted: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Jorge_Horacio_Brito&oldid=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)

Invitarion to edit[edit]

Hi, I invite you to edit and expand this article United States involvement in regime change in Latin America that would certainly benefit from more editors. Greetings. --Dereck Camacho (talk) 05:29, 19 January 2018 (UTC)
