WikiProject Argentina

I take it that you are a new editor in Wikipedia. Welcome! If you are an Argentinian, you're also welcome to join us at the Argentina-related regional board and participate in WikiProject Argentina.

On the other hand, I'd like to ask you not to rename/move articles, such as Junín, Buenos Aires, without consulting with other editors. There are conventions, both written and tacitly understood, about the names of cities and partidos. I don't particularly like the sound of "Junín Partido" but that's how all other partidos are named. --Pablo D. Flores (Talk) 21:04, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

Hola otra vez. Hay una larga discusión en Wikipedia talk:Argentina-related regional notice board/Archive1 sobre los nombres de las provincias (verás que yo "perdí" en esa discusión). Las convenciones se respetan en tanto no molesten demasiado y ayuden a encontrar un artículo. Por ejemplo, Buenos Aires podría ser ambiguo, pero Buenos Aires City redirige ahí, y todas las provincias son de la forma XXX Province. Lo mismo Mendoza. Hay algunas inconsistencias (Paraná, Argentina, Santa Fe, Argentina vs. Colón, Entre Ríos, San Lorenzo, Santa Fe vs. Coronda, Rafaela) pero nada grave. La forma en que yo creo un artículo sobre una ciudad (y he creado bastantes) es ver si se trata de una ciudad importante y si el nombre no es ambiguo; en ese caso se llama como la ciudad a secas (sin nada de "City of XXX" o "XXX City". Si el nombre es o podría ser ambiguo (por ejemplo, "San XXX" o "Santa XXX") y la ciudad no es muy importante, entonces le pongo el nombre de la provincia después, separado por espacio y coma (en Wikipedia en español tienden más a poner paréntesis). Se pueden crear todos los redirects que quieras, pero creo que no debe haber casi ninguno de la forma "City of XXX".

¡Bienvenido al proyecto! --Pablo D. Flores (Talk) 16:00, 9 March 2006 (UTC)

Wikimedia Stories Project

Aloha!

My name is Victor and I work with the Wikimedia Foundation, the non-profit organization that supports Wikipedia. We're chronicling the inspiring stories of the Wikipedia community around the world, including those from readers, editors, and donors. Stories are absolutely essential for any non-profit to persuade new people to support the cause, and we know the vast network of people who use Wikipedia have so much to share.

I find stories that drive our annual fundraising efforts. It's important to convey the incredible diversity of people who've come to rely upon Wikipedia every day.

I'd really like the opportunity to interview you to tell your story, with the possibility of using it in our materials, on our community websites, or as part of this year’s fundraiser to encourage others to support Wikipedia.

I will be in Buenos Aires from the 10th - 11th of March 2012.

I'm hoping you will elaborate on your story with me. Please let me know if you're inclined to take part in the Wikipedia Stories Project!

Thank you,

Victor Grigas
