Talk:Civil code of Argentina

Not only is studied at School of Law in Argentina, but is currently in use. Defines and enumerates a Civil Code of Conduct for a population of about 40 million people to abide to. Interesting to have as reference for comparison purposes with that of other nations. Good reference material for Sociology and History studies. Useful for who is interestd or planning into doing Business or other affairs in Argentina: codes, regulations, rights and limitations. 4.234.72.29 05:29, 17 September 2006 (UTC)

Best way to translate "Ley N°"
I've seen people say "Law No." "Law number" and simply "Law" followed by the number. I was wondering what would be the best way to translate this, as it is something that could be fixed quickly and would help a lot with style.

Also, I'm assuming laws presented in a number/year (11.609/1943) fashion are just that, the law number, then the year. Is the law year really necessary? For example, is there more than one law number 11,609, so that you have to specify the year afterwards? This could also become a style issue as people sometimes ignore the year, sometimes state it as a sentence (Law 11,609, which was made in 1943), or sometimes, just leave it like it is.

My suggestion for the former problem is to either start saying "Law No." or to ignore "number" altogether and say "law." As for the second problem, if the year is necessary, put it in parenthesis after the law. "Law No. 11,609 (1943)"

I'm completely new at editing wikipedia, so I don't if there is a pre-established style bible for articles. if there is, then I apologize for wasting your time.

 * I'm not sure about this, but I believe that laws having a year in it are emmended versions, so the year is rather important to differentiate it from the older versions. I suggest we keep both the number and year in the common argentine format Law 11.609/1943. --Mariano (t/c) 20:07, 26 March 2007 (UTC)


 * In English, I think the usage would be "Law 11,606 (1943)". Remember that the decimal is not being used to indicate a subsection, it is a positional separator for thousands digits, just like the comma in English.  &mdash;dgies tc 20:17, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
 * You have a point on the comma (that sounded strange...) For the year, it doesn't really make much of the difference but, why not keeping the original format? Might make it easier if you are going to search fr something on the net. --Mariano (t/c) 00:52, 27 March 2007 (UTC)


 * In Spain the law names include the year. For example the law 28/2005 is the 28th law approved that year, and the name is 28/2005 as a whole. In Argentina, apparently that isn't the case, as I can't imagine them approving 11,000 laws each year.--Wafry 20:00, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
