Talk:List of types of revenue stamps

Rewriting the article
As the article currently stands, it has over 300 sections (and it is far from complete - there are plenty of countries which are not covered). Some sections have long lists of countries, but many have only one or two countries listed. Therefore I believe that the list is too long and is not useful for the casual reader. I had nominated the article for deletion in 2016, but the result of the discussion was to keep it.

I propose rewriting the article from scratch, listing the types of revenues issued by country rather than the countries by type of revenues. For example:


 * Malta


 * Airport Charge (1975–88)
 * Applications (1926, withdrawn 1928)
 * Contracts (1926, withdrawn 1928)
 * Excise
 * Cigarettes (c.1930s–present)
 * Alcohol (c.2008–present)
 * Wine (2015–present)
 * National Insurance (1956–76, withdrawn 1978)
 * Passport (1933–69, withdrawn 1972)
 * Registers (1926, withdrawn 1928)
 * Revenue (1899–1956)
 * Stocks & Shares (1926, withdrawn 1928)
 * Workmen's Compensation (1929–53, replaced by National Insurance stamps 1956)

What do others think of this proposal? --Xwejnusgozo (talk) 18:11, 2 September 2019 (UTC)
