Hi all,
In the discussion Wikispecies, there were a few mentions of the possibility to enlarge Wikipedia with coverage on postage stamps.
While some articles on famous stamps may easily find their place in an encyclopedia, an extensive coverage of stamps seems outside of the scope of Wikipedia. So I would like to know what people think about that.
I think detailed coverage of stamps, coins, bills, &c is well within the scope of Wikipedia; to the extent of eventually having one article per item for items that look significantly different from one another. Although the list of misprints or misstrikes for a given stamp/coin should be listed uner a single aticle.
