Reserve currency & overall currency status[edit]

Anyone else think we should consolidate the current status section into the rest of the article? I see where at least some stuff in current status belongs elsewhere. If there is consensus, I will take the ball to do this.

redback[edit]

This one sentence seems totally random and it isn't explained why it's named after a spider. It's probably just one author calling it this way for attention and it probably has a negative connotation. --147.142.69.127 (talk) 13:21, 20 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It's nothing to do with the spider. It's a cited usage (see the source), and is mentioned in bold as per WP:LEAD for alternative names. If you look at the Redback disambiguation page, you will see it there alongside other known uses of the term. Hope that helps. Laterthanyouthink (talk) 23:23, 20 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

元200[edit]

I'm sure that 元200 notes were issued for a short time between 2004 and 2009 when I was living there. I never actual ever saw one, but there were mentions in the newspapers. I presume they decided not to carry on, similar to USA getting rid of US$100 notes, and the same idea, to stop smuggling, drugs etc. 46.69.62.75 (talk) 12:33, 9 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Not true, but Taiwan has a $200 note which is still valid (but very rarely seen) 11:45, 17 April 2021 (UTC)

Former use in Taiwan and Hong Kong[edit]

This article claims that the RMB was previously used in Taiwan and Hong Kong. Is this true? I am unable to find evidence for this claim, and I find it unlikely considering that Hong Kong and the ROC have long had their own currencies. I will remove the language within a few days unless someone is able to provide evidence to support these claims.  Mysterymanblue  14:44, 14 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

reason for removing the failed verification tag[edit]

The reason I removed it was I confirmed that the link and the content are linked. Sandykkzk (talk) 07:21, 24 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
