Wrong name, POV-hell from Aidan, yet again. Has to be moved to the proper name but he's managed to make that not possible without admin intervention. Shouldn't need an RM due to the naming policy and NPOV policy but thats the way it goes. --Kiand 00:49, 10 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Cian, did my reference to Banknotes of Ulster peeve you off? What is wrong with refering to 'Northern Ireland' as Ulster? - (Aidan Work 05:36, 10 January 2006 (UTC))[reply]

Absolutely everything - thats not its name. It never has been. It never will be. Ulster is something different, and anything else you claim that word means, it doesn't. Stop using it for what it doesn't mean. --Kiand 09:01, 10 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
If it where acceptable to refer to Northern Ireland as "Ulster" then thats where the article would be located. But it is not, remember to keep articles titles accurate. Northern Ireland naming dispute maybe a start. Djegan 18:50, 10 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
New 2007 Issues of Ulster Bank Noted have a new type face at the top of the notes

Fair use rationale for Image:NorthernBankNI20.jpg[edit]

Image:NorthernBankNI20.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 insure 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. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Image copyright problem with Image:Bank of Ireland sterling 5 .jpg[edit]

The image Image:Bank of Ireland sterling 5 .jpg is used in this article under a claim of fair use, but it does not have an adequate explanation for why it meets the requirements for such images when used here. In particular, for each page the image is used on, it must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Please check

  • That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for the use in this article.
  • That this article is linked to from the image description page.

This is an automated notice by FairuseBot. For assistance on the image use policy, see Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. --15:16, 12 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This is now fixed using {{Non-free image data}} combined with {{Non-free image rationale}}, as recommended in situations where an image is used in multiple articles.Cnbrb (talk) 21:53, 13 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

George Best fiver[edit]

Image:GBfiver.jpg was deleted from the article yesterday in December. I am not sure of the inclusion criteria for numismatic images, but if you are interested in this image, please join a discussion on it at : Talk:Ulster Bank/Archives/2013#Fair use rationale for Image:GBfiver.jpg. --Hroðulf (or Hrothulf) (Talk) 08:41, 28 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Printers???????????[edit]

does anyone know where the Northern Irish Banknotes are printed by all 4 banks on some of them it says "thomas de la rue " which I know is a Banknote printer or do they have printers within Northern Ireland and how often do they print Northern Irish banknotes as sometimes they end up across the water in the rest of the UK and indeed taken home by tourists to keep as part of their trip to NI

Bankers (Ireland) Act 1845[edit]

OK, sorry, don't know what this should really say but: Bankers (Northern Ireland) Act 1845 is definately wrong. Northern Ireland as a politcal entity didn't exist until 3 May 1921. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.16.94.58 (talk) 23:02, 31 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Legal Tender[edit]

I've read the entire of the first citation and nowhere does it say that Northern Ireland banknotes are NOT legal tender. Perhaps the citation is in the wrong place - but if it's meant to refer to something supporting the sentence it's with it currently does not. We need that citation updated/moved. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.84.187.127 (talk) 13:34, 9 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Only Bank of England notes are a legal tender in the U.K.. NI notes are not, nor are Scottish notes a legal tender anywhere, even in Scotland. This should be made clear somewhere. A discussion of why this is, and why other banks get to issue notes in the first place, would improve the article. 2A00:23C7:E284:CF00:F9A6:4B5E:5445:9E52 (talk) 08:05, 22 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

You'll find this issue is explained in detail in Banknotes of the pound sterling#Legal tender, but there would be no harm in adding a summary sentence here. Cnbrb (talk) 10:33, 22 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
