Proposed merge

[edit]

The World War II version of this coin has its own page with more information, although not enough detail to warrant a separate article imho. I suggested a merge but I'll leave it to the experts to execute. Interestingly, the other page has a succession box naming the previous mintage "Bronze cent" and the following one "Wilhelmina cent" -- surely numismats can expand on historical details of all versions. — JFG talk 03:34, 1 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see any reason for separate articles. I believe all prewar and wartime issues were demonitized around 1950 once they got things running again at Utrecht and got out enough coins to supply the country, plus a decent interval to allow people to exchange. I think I saw a pamphlet on that put out by the Dutch Mint with the details at some point, but I don't seem to have it. Or it might have been the Netherlands Central Bank. But it's pointless to have separate articles.--Wehwalt (talk) 04:02, 1 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
And I don't see why "Wilhelmina cent". There is no distinction between the Wilhelmina issue of 1948 and the subsequent Juliana issues. Wilhelmina 5 and 25 cent coins circulated right up until the euros came in (the guilder did not, as it was silver).--Wehwalt (talk) 04:09, 1 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. Two different situations. The information regarding the World War II version could be expanded, if such info can be found. It would be worth following this pamphlet (clue). The terms "Bronze cent" and "Wilhelmina cent" sound much like popular denominations, locally speaking of course. Agreed on the suggestion expand on historical details of all versions.

Neutral. However I do think there is not that much to tell about the coin besides the design, dimensions, material and mintage figures. Krenakarore why did you alter the references? As I read it now the only things sourced are the material of the 1 cent 1948–1980 and the minting years of the Juliana version. Pindanl (talk) 20:52, 3 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
@Pindanl my very dear, I placed them inside the table just because they were outside. It is implied that the info is still the very same ! But we can change it again because, this is Wikipedia you know. How about it now... :) ? Krenakarore TK 22:01, 3 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
It looks fine as you did it now. However if you change it here you should also change the articles on the ½ c, 2½ c, 5 c, 10 c, 25 cent and the halve guilder to be consistent. Pindanl (talk) 16:06, 4 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
@Pindanl, I wonder why you didn't do that already ?
@Krenakarore Because I don’t have the time right now and because I didn’t saw the need to change it in the first place Pindanl (talk) 18:51, 9 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
@Pindanl my dear, you're much welcome :) ! Krenakarore TK 21:46, 9 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
