Coins of the United States dollar----
I'm curious why you listed the three cent bronze coin as "not circulated". Given that the mintage was only a few dozen pieces and AFAIK there were no plans to actually circulate the coin, I'd think it was more accurately listed as a pattern. However, I didn't want to change it without knowing why you classed it as you did. thanks, Scott. Almostfm (talk) 06:45, 16 March 2016 (UTC)
Got your message. I wouldn't say it's a "mistake"-it's a bit of a judgment call sometimes over where "pattern" stops and "not circulated" begins. The 1974 aluminum cent is a good example. They struck some as patterns, but later minted another million. If the coin had gotten congressional approval, the million they minted would have been released for circulation. Since, AFAIK, there's no difference between the coins that were actually struck as patterns and the million that were intended for circulation, there's no way to distinguish between them. take care, Almostfm (talk) 04:28, 17 March 2016 (UTC)
Native American Dollar Coin Program
editHello! There is a discussion here, with references for the continual minting of the Sacagawea/Native American US $1 coins after 2016 (i.e., after the end of the Presidential $1 Coin Program this year). The Native American Coin Act does not explicitly state that the Native American $1 Coin Program will end in 2016, if I am mistaken, please kindly source the original quote. Meanwhile, I have quoted the US Mint's official website as my source for the continuance of the Native American $1 Coin Program. I quote (bolding is my own): "Following the conclusion of the Presidential $1 Coin Program, the Native American $1 Coins will be issued in any order determined to be appropriate after consultation with the U.S. Senate Committee ...". In the edit summary of one of your reversions, you made mention of the [cancellation] due to [the] lack of demand, if this is true, please kindly provide a reliable source for this. Thank you! --Shibo77 (talk) 02:46, 7 April 2016 (UTC)
Copying within Wikipedia requires proper attribution
editThank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Byzantine Empire into Roman Empire. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. If you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 14:02, 2 May 2016 (UTC)
May 2016
editIf you believe this block is unjustified, please read the guide to appealing blocks (specifically this section) before appealing. Place the following on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Please copy my appeal to the [[WP:AE|arbitration enforcement noticeboard]] or [[WP:AN|administrators' noticeboard]]. Your reason here OR place the reason below this template. ~~~~}}
. If you intend to appeal on the arbitration enforcement noticeboard I suggest you use the arbitration enforcement appeals template on your talk page so it can be copied over easily. You may also appeal directly to me (by email), before or instead of appealing on your talk page. — Coffee // have a cup // beans // 03:25, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
Reminder to administrators: In May 2014, ArbCom adopted the following procedure instructing administrators regarding Arbitration Enforcement blocks: "No administrator may modify a sanction placed by another administrator without: (1) the explicit prior affirmative consent of the enforcing administrator; or (2) prior affirmative agreement for the modification at (a) AE or (b) AN or (c) ARCA (see "Important notes" [in the procedure]). Administrators modifying sanctions out of process may at the discretion of the committee be desysopped."
