Talk:Navy Petty-Officers School

Page contents not supported in other languages.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Perhaps somebody more familiar than myself with Wikipedia procedures would propose this page for deletion? I myself expanded this entry from a shorter original. However, it describes one of about 100 similar establishments. There is now an entry in Concentration Camp (expanded again by myself) which links to the same URL as linked from this page. The very detailed reference lists all known camps.

Alternatively, if it is felt that this entry should stand, please delete the "see discussion" at the top of the article.

I have recommended that this page be merged with Concentration camp. Brianjd 12:49, 2004 Dec 19 (UTC)

This is currently a well written article with a lot of information. The old recommendation of moving it seams now to be outdated. Mariano(t/c) 11:42, 1 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Upon looking at the history, it was indeed not a good idea to move it even then; it should've been expanded more. Saying "it describes one of about 100 similar establishments" misses the point horribly. The notability of this particular place has been sufficiently established by now, I hope. For God's sake, if individual highschools, ephemeral Shakira hit singles and Pokémon characters are worthy of their own articles, each and every Dirty War detention center of Argentina is worthy 100 times more. --Pablo D.

Citations needed[edit]

This article is garbage until someone can start supplying sources. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.47.85.22 (talk) 03:22, 27 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Agree. According to the article, 30,000 people died at ESMA. That's 100% impossible considering that according to the Wikipedia Dirty War article, 9,000-30,000 people died in the whole war. So according to this article, all of them died at ESMA? --Lacarids (talk) 03:31, 21 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
It was simply a badly reported number. The referenced page says 30,000 for the whole war, and 5,000 at the ESMA. I have fixed it. Cambalachero (talk) 12:08, 21 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Article title is wrong[edit]

Escuela Superior de Mecánica de la Armada translates as Higher School of Mechanics of the Navy, or Navy Higher School of Mechanics. Emphasis on petty officers is wrong; in fact, no reference is given for the original (pre-1976) school even being for those ranks, regardless of the name.Pol098 (talk) 14:09, 11 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Expanding my previous comment, either the current name Navy Petty-Officers' School (no mention of mechanics) or the original name Higher School of Mechanics of the Navy should be used as the title. I prefer the "Higher School" one, a very well-known and notorious term, to the obscure name of the modern, legitimate successor school. Pol098 (talk) 16:03, 22 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Now renamed. Navy Petty-Officers School. I still prefer Higher School of Mechanics of the Navy, but at least the present title is a name actually used. Pol098 (talk) 15:22, 17 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

==Wiki Education assignment: History of Argentina, Brazil, and Chile== This article was the subject of a Wiki Education Foundation-supported course assignment, between 6 January 2022 and 26 April 2022. Further details are available on the course page. Student editor(s): Panchovillastan (article contribs). Peer reviewers: Ridley0526, Dancer2025!!.

Plans for improving ESMA wiki page[edit]

I plan on adding more details to this page. In the intro paragraph, I will add dates indicating during which time was ESMA used as a clandestine operation during the Dirty War --Panchovillastan (talk) 17:15, 31 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Additionally, I plan to reorganize this page to make ESMA's history clear. I want to organize this page in chronological order from its time as a navy school to its present use as a memorial museum. I just want to make clear I do not plan on deleting anything on the contrary I want to expand on the already present information. --Panchovillastan (talk) 18:04, 11 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
