Climatic regions of Argentina
I've listed this article for peer review because I would like to know if this article needs improvements, particularly with the prose and sentence structure since I would like to nominate this article for WP:GA and WP:FA. It was created as a separate article from the Climate of Argentina page since that page had too much information.

 * Sources in the Books section should be sorted alpha by author, then chronological (typically, ascending) for more than one work by the same author.
 * Strongly suggest you add  importScript('User:Ucucha/HarvErrors.js');  to your User:Ssbbplayer/common.js. It is extremely useful for highlighting reference errors, like to one in this article for the source "Trees in Patagonia 2008".
 * It's odd that 5 of the 6 sections of your article have 3 subsections, but Pampas has only one. It's also a bit odd tha the graphic in the WP:LEDE lists 9 areas of Argentina, but the article covers only the 6.
 * I skimmed the text, not reading closely, and it looked good. I also ran Earwig's copyvio tool without problems. But I am concerned that some sections may be direct translations from source, whic may in turn be WP:COPYVIO. Lingzhi &diams; (talk) 11:06, 17 January 2016 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the comments. I will look over these issues, particularly with the translations which was the hardest part. Could you indicate which Spanish sources are problematic? For the Pampas one, that can be reorganized easily and I will do it shortly. For the map, although it includes the South Atlantic islands and Antarctica, the article should deal with areas that are internationally recognized and not subject to dispute which is why it should not include anything related to Falkland Islands or Argentine Antarctica as these claims are not recognized by other countries and are subject to territorial disputes. The Pampas covers both the dry and wet Pampas (I could not find a lot of any reliable climatic information on the Pampas). For the Sierras Pampeanas, I could not find a lot of good, reliable information related to the climate of this region (only a few sentences related to it in both Cuyo and NWA). However, the map is not really that good although it is the only one that fits well with this article for those not familiar with Argentine geography. Ssbbplayer (talk) 19:56, 17 January 2016 (UTC)
 * My Spanish is limited to what I learned in elementary school approx. 40 years ago. [If you need someone to count from 1 to 100, I'm your man!]. However, when I glanced at some of the Spanish-language sources, the sentence structures and the placement of many words with Latin roots (shared with English) seemed perhaps a little too similar. You should probably research the whole translation/copyvio issue, but in general, I would assume that the rules are the same: please paraphrase, and do not repeat the structure (overall document structure, and/or individual sentence structure) of the original. Perhaps Close paraphrasing will be helpful... I hope that helps a little at least. Lingzhi &diams; (talk) 07:14, 18 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I will look into that. Ssbbplayer (talk) 00:28, 19 January 2016 (UTC)
