Determinations of the atomic transition probabilities for prominent spectral lines of Ar I and II are classical cases for testing the capabilities of the emission spectroscopy method. Despite numerous attempts to measure these data accurately, differences of about 30-40 percent remain in the numerical results, and the available material actually suggests two scales for the transition probabilities, differing by about 30 percent. A critical analysis of all emission experiments undertaken in this study is able to remove these differences satisfactorily. A single transition probability value with an error estimated of only + or - 5 percent is established for a typical Ar I transition; however, discrepancies for the Ar II data are not removed and remain as a challenge to future experiments.
