[edit] By a Collector

I added more information on the new banknotes because I felt that this article needed to be updated. The new RM10 note is similar to the old Wawasan 2020 RM10 note but it has a lead security feature. The RM5 note is also similar to the Wawasan 2020 RM5 note but it is made of polymer and its watermark has a small picture of the Prime Minister's Office instead of the first king. A.L.

---

The images of banknotes may need a "specimen" label, and perhaps approval from bank negara (if i'm not mistaken)

[edit] Merger

It's been suggested that this page be merged with ringgit. My vote is no, since the word ringgit is used locally for currencies listed in Wikipedia under other names, as is explained in ringgit.

Oppose. It can also refer to the Singapore dollar and Brunei dollar in the Malay language. The article should be made into a disambig page and the image of the Malaysian ringgit should be moved. --ChoChoPK (球球PK) (talk | contrib) 21:01, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
Oppose, clearly. Make ringgit a dab page, without pictures. —Nightst a llion (?) 13:23, 25 September 2006 (UTC)
Oppose. The analogy is the relationship between Dollar and US Dollar. __earth ^(Talk) 08:08, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
Oppose All of the above Joe I 04:20, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
Oppose due to different meanings. However, references needed for Ringgit. -- SpLoT 04:23, 20 October 2006 (UTC)
Oppose due to use of name for different currencies. -- Ouishoebean 07:56, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

Comment it seems quite unanimous. How long do we have to wait to take the tag down? --ChoChoPK (球球PK) (talk | contrib) 14:34, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

Oppose per above. Ac s 4b 07:38, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Origin of term "Sen"

Is sen derived from the English term cent, or the Japanese sen, or something else? Nik42 05:39, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

Which one do you think is the most probable answer? __earth ^(Talk) 12:14, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Copies of Notes

You need permission from Bank Negera Malaysia to make copies of notes and coins. The copies also need to have "SPECIMEN" or "CONTOH" printed on them. I suggest that the pictures are taken down and be placed back when permission is obtained.

More information can be found here:
Guidelines on reproduction of notes and coins
Form to apply for permission to reproduce notes and coins

[edit] Kupang

Is the term "kupang" related to the keping used in northern Malaya until 1909? See the new articles Kelantan keping and Trengganu keping.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Image-SMS0386 RM2 front s.jpg

Image:Image-SMS0386 RM2 front s.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 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 uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 08:51, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
