It is not often I disagree with you leandro, but this time I do. Using the LoCo Directory would help our community keep track of the events in which LatAm LoCos participate/organize. One of the reason for the directory's existence is merely the ability to be able to track events in which our LoCos participate. So, I believe there is middle way as adding an event to the directory, for a certain LoCo, could be used as reference for the Community (Council), and the information described there would i.e. point to the URL of the FLISOL Wiki of that specific country or event. That would give FLISOL as a whole more attention outside of the LatAm sphere rather than obviating the whole thing and keeping it in their Wiki. Summarized: Add the events to the LoCo directory but do point to the local event FLISOL wiki page. Does that sound reasonable?
