Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Stuck (unit)|When this was last discussed the evidence that the Cardelli reference was bad turned out simply to be some issues over Japanese units, and in fact Cardelli is supported as a good source by numerous other reliable sources. The same goes for Washburn and Clark. The deletion rational here appears to be that all the references are bad, but this is not substantiated. The article itself gives reasons as to why these units are not the same as Spanish customary units (because they varied regionally - similarly to the way in which US gallons are not the same as Imperial ones). https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=X0VYDwAAQBAJ&pg=PA730&dq=%22pulgada%22+%22Buenos+Aires%22&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwixyPCl48HmAhXNTsAKHfleC7oQuwUILzAA#v=onepage&q=%22pulgada%22%20%22Buenos%20Aires%22&f=false Hence units are given here used in Buenos Aires that differ from the customary units of Spain. https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=_a2NrUSo1mcC&q=%22Frasco%22+%22Argentina%22&dq=%22Frasco%22+%22Argentina%22&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjztOiE5MHmAhUOecAKHb7eAvcQ6AEIYzAJ And here also. https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=0eRDAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA591&dq=%22cuadra%22+%22Argentina%22&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjo0fDw58HmAhWZEMAKHY_6CCAQ6AEIKDAA#v=onepage&q=%22cuadra%22%20%22Argentina%22&f=false And also here. https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=MJzKr4K91REC&q=%22cuadra%22+%22Argentina%22&dq=%22cuadra%22+%22Argentina%22&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjo0fDw58HmAhWZEMAKHY_6CCAQ6AEIUDAF And here as well. https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=iMvXAAAAMAAJ&q=%22cuadra%22+%22Argentina%22&dq=%22cuadra%22+%22Argentina%22&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjo0fDw58HmAhWZEMAKHY_6CCAQ6AEIWDAG Wow here too. https://archive.org/stream/someeffectsofcom00york/someeffectsofcom00york_djvu.txt Double Wow - here's an entire 1939 research paper on Argentine and other South American customary units. As with the previous discussion about the unit Stueck, I think there is an argument that perhaps these units should all be merged at a particular level (e.g., into a wider list), but in this case this has already happened (they are merged at the country-level), and I think this avoids  issues
