Polish coins and banknotes

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This article is essentially a gallery of non-free images of the Polish złoty. (In fact, it has the second highest number of non-free files on the project). There is no prose, and while there's not an explicit bullet point that addresses this, WP:INDISCRIMINATE certainly feels like it applies. The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 07:43, 7 May 2020 (UTC)

 * Keep or merge. While it could use either more prose or renaming to a 'list of', it seems like it clearly meets GNG or WP:NLIST.PS. On serhaps a merger with Polish złoty would be appropriate, since it is de facto a fork of that concept. Well, at least that's where Polish currency redirects to. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 10:21, 7 May 2020 (UTC)
 * I'm not opposed to a merge, but I would be opposed to any solution that doesn't result in a significant reduction in the number of non-free images in the resulting article(s). If this article is kept, I'll follow up with an FfD for most of the images. If this article is merged, we can just orphan most of them and they'll get deleted procedurally.

 * Keep The page does not seem significantly different to another similar page which I sampled: Coins of the United States dollar. If the nominator wants more prose then they should please add some.  This is not done by deletion.  Andrew🐉(talk) 08:22, 8 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep If the nominator's main issue with the article is number of non-free images or lack of prose, there are other ways to improve it rather than delete. Deletion is the last resort. Generally the article meets notability guidelines. Less Unless (talk) 11:24, 8 May 2020 (UTC)
