2019 US Banknote Contest

  US Banknote Contest  
November-December 2019

There are an estimated 30,000 different varieties of United States banknotes, yet only a fraction of these are represented on Wikimedia Commons in the form of 2D scans. Additionally, Colonial America, the Confederate States, the Republic of Texas, multiple states and territories, communities, and private companies have issued banknotes that are in the public domain today but are absent from Commons.

In the months of November and December, WikiProject Numismatics will be running a cross-wiki upload-a-thon, the 2019 US Banknote Contest. The goal of the contest is to increase the number of US banknote images available to content creators on all Wikimedia projects. Participants will claim points for uploading and importing 2D scans of US banknotes, and at the end of the contest all will receive awards. Whether you want to claim the Gold Wiki or you just want to have fun, all are invited to participate.


If you do not want to receive invitations to future US Banknote Contests, follow the instructions here

Hi

I've meant to stop by and say hi a few times, but always get pulled away. Apologies for waiting so long - I am glad to see you're still around. I hope all is well. I didn't really have anything important to say, just that it's good to see old friends from the old days. Cheers. — Ched (talk) 00:13, 26 November 2019 (UTC)

I pop by occasionally. More to see that some things never really change, I guess. I don't have much hope or use for the place. Hope all is well for you. Intothatdarkness 19:19, 22 December 2019 (UTC)

Happy Holidays
