Talk:Governorate of the Río de la Plata

Governorate

Government is a very infelicitous translation of the Spanish gobernacion, which is similar to but different from a province or state. The pages for gobernacion and "governorate" link back and forth here at wiki, so I've moved the page here.

Also made numerous other edits, so please do not simply revert the page, even if there's a better word to move the page to. -LlywelynII (talk) 16:34, 4 September 2008 (UTC)

I agree that the name is better and any renaming proposal should be discussed here first. -- Alexf⁴² 16:46, 4 September 2008 (UTC)

Further Reading

There are numerous pages for these guys on the Spanish wiki and here, if someone with some Spanish skills could translate the stories (on the separate pages) and the specific titles, major points, and reason for removal from office (here.) -LlywelynII (talk) 16:51, 4 September 2008 (UTC)

I have been doing, and am in the process of translating all articles related to the Viceroyalty and Argentina war of independence. I'll add these to my ToDo list, although it will take time as the list is already long and growing. -- Alexf⁴² 17:11, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
