Thank you. Paper money redirects to banknote but it hardly makes sense to use the tabloid-ish alias rather than the real thing, so I have changed it accordingly. Come back if that is not what you had in mind. --𝕁𝕄𝔽 (talk) 23:47, 11 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Onlyloss6973: It's written £50, not 50£. Nevertheless, they do exist, and I see two or three each month. I work in a shop, and some of our customers bring in £50 notes - usually it's either foreign tourists, or rich kids from the local private school. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 11:22, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
By your own assessment it doesn't mean that is frequently used since it used by a small and certain demographic. The common person living in UK doesn't use it Onlyloss6973 (talk) 11:35, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I think that the Sterling area article should be merged into this article. There are still countries that are pegged to the pound sterling or use it as their currency.
the up to date list and information could be added as a section in this article to show previous and current countries that peg or use the pound sterling. ChefBear01 (talk) 14:22, 11 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. Although the sterling zone is almost trivial nowadays, historically it was substantial indeed, when the pound was the world reserve currency. So the topic is notable enough to have its own article, just for openers. Secondly, this (Pound Sterling) article is already very large and it really does not want getting any bigger if we can help it, without a very convincing reason. It is not obvious that you have made that convincing case, sorry. --𝕁𝕄𝔽 (talk) 15:03, 11 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. That sterling area looks to be a topic of its own. There's already a small section here dedicated to sterling area and linking to the main article. There's no need to change how it is. Vgbyp (talk) 07:38, 12 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
