Talk:History of banking

message: Lots of claims have excessive citations in the article. It would be very useful if someone can trim the references down.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 112.207.2.76 (talk) 22:14, 12 November 2018 (UTC)
thread_title: Article has excessive citations

message: This page is a mess. That pile of text, while it could be useful if re-worked, is not useful in its current form.

thread_title: Page is a mess

message: The following is offered, from my own private gleanings. If anyone is willing (or qualified) to knock it into shape, then feel free. The main source is Roy Davies "History of Money" available on the internet.

thread_title: Comment #3

message: Removed the following:
"Even earlier banking value transfer was in the Celtic trade betweeen Europe and the America's esp where copper was mined in upper Michigan peninsula (15,000 copper pits)(3,000-1,000 BC) and traded for British flint. (see America BC by Prof Barry Fell of Harvard) Copper ingots from this trade were widely used as exchange (money) throughout Europe and the Americas.
(See also Sumerian writing in Peru, 2,000+ BC nearby to gold & emerald
mining areas.)
Further global trade/banking was the bronze mirrors imported from Asia/China to Western Europe and used (with elaborate Celtic incised patterns) as trade goods. (1,500 BC -500 AD)"
Aside from Barry Fell's work being condemned by the mainstream archeological community, none of this stuff has anything to do with banking. --Kineticman 09:22, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Off-topic assertions 

message: As one example of the many inaccuracies on this piece of garbage, Barclays is listed as one of the oldest banks, where the Bank Of Scotland isn't even mentioned. 
This is primarily a work of fiction. All the "facts" presented here need to be checked and verified. And the article rewritten. It's garbage and should have been deleted in 2005. There is NO truth here whatsoever.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.155.51.14 (talk) 18:50, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Inaccurate GARBAGE

message: Article difficult to read and to believe. Agree it should be deleted. Histories of any kind should cite texts for the period they intend to cover, particularly when people's names are missing... who did what, when... and so on.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Whit3hawk (talk • contribs) 15:41, 3 August 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  Copyright problem removed 

message: Agreed with a lot of the comments and have rework the page significantly, however still could do with more work.  Have condensed large amount of text related to jewish and christian religion as although I am sure interesting had way to much emphasis and fixed some of the citations.  Expanded recent history and added some references to technology which has influenced banking in the 20th century. Also added references from other parts of the world in ancient history such as China and India and removed a few of the dubious statements.  Sargdub (talk) 02:28, 27 November 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  Edits by 184.45.69.136 

message: There has been an edit that has added the Fuggers & Welser to the lead which I have removed a few times.  It is already covered in the article, but I feel in the context of the history of banking it does not warrant a mention in the lead as they are not significant enough.  I feel its important to keep the lead concise and as balanced as possible and adding this bank does not do this.  The Fuggers & Welser were a player in europe for a while, but I would say there are banks that are more significant which are not mentioned.  For example the bank of amsterdam, the Rothschilds with the development of international banking, JP Morgan during the 1800s through the growth of the railways and funding of industrialisation.  None of these are mentioned in the lead, there is little backup of the significance of Fuggers & Welser in the article and so its hard to justify mentioning them in the lead.  However, as there is at least one editor that disagrees would welcome any comments. Sargdub (talk) 21:37, 9 August 2013 (UTC)
