Evaluate the article
Everything in the article looks relevant to the topic, bringing up the statistics of multiple cities and population growth within Argentina, as well as the breakdown of the population's ethnic origins. The data does seem a bit out of date, as some of the date cited are 2010 for the cities and 2020 for the overall population. I cannot identify any notable equity gaps or the under-representation of marginalized populations. It is about population data, and the only questionable thing is the amount of european and mestiso ancestry is difficult to discern. Better organization could be a boon, but overall it is well done. The tone seems to be neutral as it is mostly data and statistics with no real viewpoints. They cite reliable sources such as the world factbook by the CIA and UN population statistics. There is a range of different sources from different publications and individuals. The talk page mostly discusses the validity of some of the data and sources, such as self-reported English knowledge by the Argentinians. It is rated B-class, and there is less of an argument backed up by sources and more by the distrust of sources.

Are there better sources available for this data?
