I'm not sure a link to this page belongs in the main currency page. I'm also not sure why the reference should only be to Singapore, since notes bearing the banana design were issued throughout Malaya and the Netherlands Indies.

Um, feel free to expand the scope, I guess. Elle vécut heureuse à jamais (Be eudaimonic!) 15:23, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
One and a half years on, and no work was done, pitiful. Anyway, there were also unathorised one-sided copies of the $10 bill used as Allied air-dropped leaflets warning of the impending uselessness of the currency once the Japanese were defeated, as well as banana notes converted into war souvenirs. Will look into a Malaysian currency book for reference, followed by a revision of the article. - Two hundred percent (talk) 07:04, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Banananote.jpg

Image:Banananote.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
