Euro gold and silver commemorative coins (Austria)[edit]

This peer review discussion has been closed.
I've listed this article for peer review because I would like to propose it for featured article. The article reveals the rich collection of all silver and gold Austrian euro coins, including the world famous Vienna Philharmonic coin.

  • I was going to begin this review by pointing out that the lead consists entirely of sentences stating what the article is not, which is not really what the lead is for, but upon doing a little research, I found a far worse problem. The descriptive texts for each and every coin in this article (at least, for every one that has any description) are direct word-for-word copies of the material located at the Austrian Mint website, linked as a reference for each coin. That makes the overwhelming bulk of this article a copyright violation. This is a candidate for deletion, not featured article. --Ig8887 (talk) 12:40, 7 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
