Talk:Finnish markka

message: What is the ISO code for the old (pre-1963) mark?  It can't be FIM, since that exclusively refers to the post-1963 mark... (Stefan2 21:34, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

message: :Image:Last finnish coins.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.

message: Since when was penni shortened to postifx "pl"? I am a native Finn and lived here for my whole life. I have used the markka from the early 1980s (when I was old enough to own money) right up to its end and have never seen penni shortened to "pl", it was always "p". There isn't even a letter "l" in the word penni FCOL! JIP | Talk 16:22, 7 February 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  "pl"? 

message: There seems to be pictures of banknotes of the Finnish markka at WikiMedia Commons. At least the German article :de:Finnische Mark uses them. Seeing as the pictures are already at WikiMedia Commons, should the English Wikipedia article about the Finnish markka use them as well? JIP | Talk 21:39, 24 January 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Use pictures of banknotes in WikiMedia Commons? 

message: The table and images in the banknotes section have the terms 'obverse' and 'reverse' referring to wrong sides of the notes. The obverse or 'front' side of the banknotes is the side that features the face of the person depicted in the note, while the reverse sides depict the landscapes and swans. 213.243.190.3 (talk) 15:29, 6 December 2012 (UTC)

message: The coins section paragraph about 1963 coins has this: 1 markka (silver, later cupro-nickel)
However, finnish wikipedia says it was 35% silver, 57% copper and 8% zinc (I believe that is also known as "Ag 350"). Sure, they were (and are) called the "silver markka", but if 'cupro-nickel' is specifically mentioned, then should the other too. 82.141.95.243 (talk) 17:08, 8 October 2014 (UTC)

message: Should the Kingdom of Finland even be mentioned in the "users" section in the infobox? The Kingdom of Finland was a very short-lived phase in Finnish history (it lasted only one year) and has little to none bearing to the country's current state. For the entire duration of the kingdom, the country did not even actually have a monarch. JIP | Talk 21:11, 2 April 2022 (UTC)

replies: text: Finnish markka →  – Some time ago, an IP changed most use of "markka" on this article to "mark". Later, TheCurrencyGuy even chose to move this page to "Finnish mark".
I am proposing this RM to see whether someone wants to rename the article to match the usage of "mark" in the text, but I personally oppose this move: unless there are sources, I think that if "markka" ain't broke, don't fix it.
Thanks. NotReallySoroka (talk) 03:50, 15 January 2023 (UTC)

text: Comment: I personally believe that the IP is actually TCG before they chose to register an account, judging by the fact that the IP also changed "ruble" to "rouble". But let's not turn this into an SPI. Thanks again, NotReallySoroka (talk) 03:50, 15 January 2023 (UTC)
