I just added a picture of the lighthouse in Ushuaia but i am not sure if it should in fact belong to the Ushuaia article instead of here.
Pictures of Ushuaia Tierra del Fuego and Argentina can be found here :

- They'd look good on both articles, I guess. --snoyes 18:21, 22 Jan 2004 (UTC)
I would think, but am by no means sure, that a native of Tierra del Fuego would be a "Fuegan" in English-- it sounds a bit more euphonious than "Fuegian" to me. 199.196.144.11 17:26, 6 February 2006 (UTC)Blondlieut@aol.com
[edit] Merge
I reoder the article and add a merge on Isla Grande de Tierra del Fuego - Jor70 18:43, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

- Well, the problem is that Tierra del Fuego is an archipielago, while Isla Grande is the main island in the archipielago, so technically they are not the same thing. I'm not sure they should be splet or merged, but I would leave things as they are now, since someone might add a lot of information concerning only one of them.

- I also disagree with the merge proposal. They are not the same thing; one is a subset of the other. Warofdreams talk 21:21, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] First voyage of the Beagle
"Four native Fuegians, ... were brought from Tierra del Fuego by Robert Fitzroy on the first voyage of the Beagle in 1830" is not correct. It was Fitzroys first voyage with the Beagle, but not the first voyage of the Beagle. I changed it. 62.235.147.18 12:56, 22 October 2006 (UTC)
