I have re-added the link to Gulden's, a mustard brand. This is a disambiguation page. The page should not be restricted to various currencies named the gulden because the purpose of disambiguation is to include links to all possible meanings of the same, or a very similar, word, phrase, or expression, and the addition of a single apostrophe and s is very similar (I got on this page because I was looking up the mustard brand, for example). Refer to the guidelines: disambiguation pages should include "corresponding singular, plural and possessive forms, or compound words." For example, the Saint Elizabeth disambiguation page links to the St. Elizabeth's page. Neutralitytalk 07:24, 28 September 2011 (UTC)Reply

Merge with Guilder or Gold coin

edit

Oppose: This is a disambiguation page for the word Gulden, Guldens or Gulden's and should not be confused with an article page. Specific non-ambiguous articles about coins or currencies can have their own pages, and if containing the words Gulden, Guldens or Gulden's can be linked to from here.

The problem is that this page links with normal pages in other languages and that there are now several different wikidata pages for exactly the same object: florin (Q17053528), guilder (Q203607), Gulden (Q343669) ... All this confusion originates in a non-obvious translation of gulden/Gülden/guilder in Germanic languages into fiorino/florin in Latin languages. There would be scope for quite some cleaning up.Pensées de Pascal (talk) 14:31, 12 December 2017 (UTC)Reply

Deleted irrelevant sentence on the Polish zloty.

edit

I have deleted an irrelevant sentence on the Polish zloty in the first sentence. This is a disambiguation page for the word gulden, not a catalog of currencies named for the metal gold. Mrrhum (talk) 17:52, 18 May 2016 (UTC)Reply
