Recent change[edit]

Miguel.mateo in your last edit you changed the format from (TD,VAQQ,IDWM) to (TD,VQQM,IDWA) why? T=Topic, D=Designer, V=Value, A=Alloy, Q=Quantity, Q=Quality, I=Issued, D=Diameter, W=Weight, M=Market Value.Kevin hipwell (talk) 15:31, 26 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Kevin, sorry for the delay responding this, I completely missed it (you might figure it out by now). The reason is that we have been putting in two or more lines the Quantities for different Quality issues. Since also, per quality we have a different Market Price I have been swapping those cells. I have done in Austria as well. I have not done for all the coins, just for the one t hat the same coin have different quality issues (Proof and BU for example). What you think?

Abstraction of the Finish coin designs[edit]

I wonder if anyone can help us to find source that explain the description of the coins, since the designs are so abstract that they are very difficult to explain. We have sources in Swedish and Finish, but we do not have translators. Please help. Miguel.mateo (talk) 02:25, 20 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]


To do list (for FL nomination)[edit]

  • Intro in the nomination:

I'm nominating this article for featured list because I think it passes all of the FL criteria and the information it provides is not easy to find on catalogs or in the internet (it is staggered in several sites, incomplete and in different languages). I believe it is well written, well-sourced, properly formatted and the information it contains is complete (all Euro commemorative coins from 2002 until today).

As a background, the Euro is currently being used in 15 countries of the European Union. Each country can mint circulating coins and 2 Euro commemorative coins that are legal tender in the entire Euro zone. But as a legacy of the practice of minting silver and gold coins, very high value in precious metals like silver, gold, titanium, niobium, etc are still minted. These coins only have a legal tender in the issuing country. Collecting these coins and seeing how difficult is to find information about them was the main reason why a set of Wikipedians decided to start a Euro gold and silver commemorative coins set of articles, one for each of the countries.

  • References need formatting... all internet sources need publishers and accessdates. Look at WP:CITE/ES.  Done
  • Use Euro gold and silver commemorative coins (Belgium) leading introduction, but change it accordingly.  Done
  • Add the summary like in the previous article, change the white cells to "-"  Done
  • Per WP:HEAD, "Market Value" should be "Market value"  Done
  • WP:MOS#Foreign terms says foreign terms not in common English usage should be itallicised. Like Bois du Cazier for example.  Done
  • "Issued: 16.10.2002" violates MOS:NUM#Dates ... change these dates!  Done
  • Wikilink effigy & GDP if used  Done
  • Link to Obverse and reverse only on the first issue of every section  Done
  • What is "Proof" "BU" ... wikilink them.  Done
  • Change all dates in the texts to day month year format instead of the month day, year  Done
  • Remove spaces between references and text.  Done
  • consider the {{convert}} template for us imperial measurement fans, for both diameter and mass.  Done
  • obverse and reverse should not be followed by side.  Done
  • Eurozone is capitalised but euro is not.  Done
  • no apostrophes in the names of decades—the correct form is "the 1950s"  Done
  • use straight apostrophes and quotation marks instead of curly  Done
  • Add texts if vissible in the coin with the translation  Done
  • Market value ... fix the market values to ranges (35-40[1][2] instead of 35[1] 40[2]) No issue value for these coins  Done
  • De-link the dates Done
  • en-dash in tange of years (like 2000–2002 instead of 2000-2002) Done

Finland Article is Finished[edit]

I think I have done everything needed to put it close to perfect state. I am leaving Finland now and will be moving soon to the set of French articles. Thanks, Miguel.mateo (talk) 11:03, 3 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Miguel there is no doubt that you have done a Fantastic Job on this article!. Kevin hipwell (talk) 11:43, 4 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
