I think one possible course of action from here is to pre-emptively notify
Wikimedia Argentina of the issue of Falklands being on the list. WP:BEANS
may be a concern but I hope they'll be reasonable.

includes Port Darwin, Fox Bay, Goose Green, Stanley, Pebble Island, and a
few more. I think it's been imported straight from the Argentine national
registry, which of course assumes that the Falklands are Argentine.
I don't think it's intentional, and I don't have an issue with Argentinian
Wikipedians taking pictures, obviously - we're all friends - but it'd be
quite easy for an unscrupulous individual to turn WLM into a political
issue. Just something to be aware of, I think.

Has anyone else noticed that the Falkland Islands are participating in
Wiki Loves Monuments this year, but as part of
Wikimedia Argentina?
I hadn't - what makes you think they are?
