[edit] Series of 1928 (U.S. Currency)

Is this article meaningful in any way?? It started on September 1, said it will have more info by September 8, but now it is well past then and nothing has been added. 66.32.159.208 22:01, 26 September 2005 (UTC)

• Keep. This should not have been nominated for deletion (I've been noticing a few nominations with very weak reasoning lately. A brush up on WP:DP wouldn't hurt.) Anyway, the transition from large to small size paper money in the U.S. is notable on its own merits, and far more notable than much of the junk that is seen as acceptable. A request for expansion would have been the proper course of action here (which I did add). Paul 22:34, 26 September 2005 (UTC)
• keep No more obscure than many other articles about bacnknotes, coins and stamps, though the fascination with such things completely passes me by. CalJW 22:38, 26 September 2005 (UTC)
• Keep Although the article is on the shorter side of things, I've seen worse, and the fact that the author didn't keep a deadline he/she self-imposed is no reason for deletion. bjelleklang 22:44, 26 September 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Nothing wrong with this that some expansion wouldn't cure. Grutness...wha? 07:41, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
• Keep - This article has relevant encyclopedic content, especially with expansion - LiniShu 21:25, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
• Move The Series of 1928 is notable only because it is the first of the small sized notes. Move to Small size note (U.S. Currency) and redirect other small size series to that article as well which could be expanded to a reasonable history of the small size notes. The current name encourages adding articles for each of the non-notable series of U.S. paper monety that would be better described by this article and a companion Large size note (U.S. Currency) article for the pre-1928 paper money.

• Merge/Move I think it is noteable, but not something we couldn't note in $1 article, $5 article, $10 article etc. I don't beleive it should have it's own article. Joe I 19:51, 29 September 2005 (UTC)
