I've listed this article for peer review because I'd like input on how I can make this a Featured List soon.

- Lead is too long per WP:LEAD for an article of this length, wouldn't expect more than two paragraphs.
- No reason for "National Flag" to be so capitalised.
- Each symbol could be discussed, i.e. explain its relevance to Argentina.
- Don't mix date formats in the refs.
- Make sure all refs have publisher info, access dates etc.
- Consider WP:ACCESS, i.e. ensure all images have descriptive alt text (not just the file names) and ensure the table is formatted per MOS:DTT.

- The list is too narrow right now, it should have one or two more columns. One should be a description, as pointed by Rambling Man, such as who was San Martín, what is a gaucho, what type of sport is pato, etc. In which places of Argentina can the animals, plants and minerals be found, or the circumstances of the creation of the flag, cockade and anthem. In most cases, English speaking people do not know about them, so they will see them as mere meaningful names.
- Another field could be for the dates when the symbols were chosen as national symbols, or if they are defacto symbols, never officially selected as such.
- The "symbol" field should be consistent in linking the generic ideas ("national anthem", father of the nation", "national personification", etc). In many cases they link the specific symbols ("Flag of Argentina", "Logo of Argentina", etc).
- The anthem should link File:Himno Nacional Argentino short instrumental.ogg.
- I don't think "former occupant Spain" is correct. Spain never invaded Argentina, Argentina (or what we would nowadays consider Argentina) was part of Spain and waged a war of independence to became a new country. Cambalachero (talk) 22:18, 11 March 2012 (UTC)
