Talk:List of islands of Argentina

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Full list

I added all the islands I found here (long live grep), but still is needed wich islands are claimed, which under the Antártida Argentina, and wich currently under the UK. Mariano(t/c) 10:51, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Separating the lists

I draw attention to the fact that I have previously edited this page under the name User:Xaghko, an account which I keep for my use on public computers.

Given that many of these islands are not universally accepted as Argentine, what do people think of splitting the list into three:

  • Islands administered by Argentina whose sovereignty is not in question
  • Islands administered by the another country whose sovereignty is disputed between the United Kingdom and Argentina (that'll mostly be the Falklands and SGSSI]]).
  • Islands falling under the Antarctic Treaty

I should say, have my doubts of the NPOV-ness of including this list on Wikipedia at all, given the controversy behind the claims to a fairly large proportion of these islands. There are WP:UE issues, most notably in the Falklands and with the fact that isla is not an English word. Pfainuk talk 12:32, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

There being no objection in the last week, I have made the edit. We still need some work on WP:UE bits because at the moment this article is mostly in Spanish. Pfainuk talk 10:41, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
