Also this "informal" claim was made AFTER Brazil already signed the
Antarctic Treaty, of course without recognising claims already made, but WITHOUT whitholding the right to make a claim in the future (as US/USSR did). And wait, now I readed this in the article: "was never an official Brazilian government position, but it was widely accepted by Brazilian geopoliticians". So this "informal claim" is not even informal - there is no such thing. This is only a wishfull thinking between some people (albeit "geopolititians") in Brazil. If we start this way we should maybe add every nation that has research stations - if some of its people think that this is "our place" (the station). I think that we should remove the "informal" category.

163:- Brazil made an 'informal' claim, which is a claim (none is more then a declaration, no power every held any effective control; all other claims are equally frozen), but since you insist on the (rather hollow, but technically correct) distinction, I'll give it an explicit label as such. Since it is not certain if South Africa has made a (former) claim (but NOT certain it didn't) I hesitate, but 'freeze' this case till we may know more (which should then first be mentioned on a page to link to)

articles (and general Russia/USA articles are not appropriate, I agree. It is better to have some explanatory info about their antarctic claim-right reserve - reasons for them to ask such thing, reasons for the others original signatories to accept this WHITOUT reciprocial right-reserve for them, etc.)
176:
The Brazil claim is INFORMAL, so it has no legal value. It is only a 1986 suggestion by the then ruling government in Brazil. Is this suggestion still supported by the current government? Hard to be sure, because they don't have to "denounce" it officialy, because it was informal in the first place.
149:
This is a navigational template and not the place to dicsuss
Antarctica. The sole point is to direct readers to the different articles on the country's claim. As USA or Russia do not claim Antarctica, they don't have an article on the subject, so can't go in here. South Africa has never claimed
232:
Have you actually seen the
Brazilian page? It isn't actually called Brazilian Antarctica, and confirms there is no claim by the Brazilian government on any territory under the Antarctic Treaty. Plus no South African article exists, and there is no reference to a reputable source to support any
186:
And I would insist instead to include USA and Russia, because they are the last states (not counting non-signatories to the ATS) that MAY make some claim. The reasons for excluding them are that they have not done so till now and that this is only a navigational template to lead to appropriate
204:
I can find no evidence of any South
African claim. I can find no evidence of any Brazilian claim, until such evidence is found, and actual articles exist for these claims- they can't appear on the template. The possibilities of such claims cannot be discussed in a template.
