Hello there!

We have few basic countries free to take for those who would like to try referee work on Numista. <:D You need to have some basic numista catalogue modification experience and access to Krause catalogue would be great.

Here they are:

If you are interested in any of these, let me know here or in PM. <:D

Best regards and stay healthy,

Just out of curiosity, what are the jobs of being a referee?
Referee is responsible for requests that users make for "his/her" country and should actively seek to make catalogue better/bigger/more complete. <:D

​How long do you think it would take?
You mean time-wise? It depends on the country and of course on referee's dedication. One can spent a lifetime working on Roman coins and never be done, and you probably need to spent few minutes daily to check on Nauru...

​I'm sorry, I have to protest. Nothing personal, but I believe that you first need to gain a positive experience of working on Numista.

To start, ask Jarcek to apply for the Bahamas, so that you will be on vacation all year round :8D , Bahamas will soon be your own coin area but if you are fed up after a while, you'll just ask to leave this mission.
No problem.
It just takes a little seriousness to understand the rules for editing and publishing coins.
And if you don't get access to Krause, we can always help you :D

If you want, you can improve the catalog without any post. The rest will come to you in time.

​I’m confused.
What he means is that if you are interested by being the referee for Bahamas, you might look for new issues or browsing the catalog to track any missing entries.

​oh...
This would be an interesting thing to work on, but shame I don't know anything about the countries that need referees.

There are of course more countries that are without referees, but those are much more obscure:

And many more. <:D

Regarding whether you should do it, I cannot really say. Everyone has to decide on their own. You can always ask for rights removal afterwards, nobody can hold you on such position.

I seem to recall that they wanted (long ago?) referees to be fluent in French (and English), as well as the language of the area being refereed.
I can take Bahamas or Jamaica, if they are still available.

LE: Or both.
I also could take Bahamas and/or Jamaica. Whatever is needed.
Yes, referees who understand the language are preffered. <:D

Actually I am quite interested in being Chinese Empire (i.e. China - Empire & China (ancient) ) referee as I am able to access Chinese literature and information. I also found that the cataloging is somewhat confusing especially China (ancient) page so I hope I can make a change.

Edit: Oh someone has already doing the hard work so I guess I'll just fill in the gap as a normal user loll
If nobody takes Bahamas and Jamaica, I can take them, since they are in my collecting range, so I can help there.

Still none of the countries originally offered show to have a referee:

Congo-Republic https://en.numista.com/catalogue/congo-brazzaville-1.html
Nauru https://en.numista.com/catalogue/nauru-1.html

Or you can go to the countries you are interested on, and look on the very bottom of the page, if has a referee, will be shown there.

None of those, as far as I can see, has a referee (for coins).
A country with * is in a section and the link is to one part of it.


P.S. Not sure how it works for sections.
Some countries that are at the start of a section do, themselves, have a referee -
but sometimes other countries within that section do not have a referee.

Or the other way round round, where the country at the start of a section does
not have a referee, but some countries with in that section do. One example:
Albania [no referee]
* Albania [referee]
* Drivast, City of [no referee]
* Shkodër, City of [no referee]

​to become referee one requirement is to have some experience with catalogue contributions, which you do not have any yet.

​dam, ok ill think of some stuff to do :)
If anything related to modern Italian coins is up (any Italian colonies, napoleonic kingdom, united provinces of central Italy, Vatican City, San Marino or any later Italian states), I’m in! I‘d to get some experience before I even think of tackling all of Italy...

Even then, I don’t have a ton of editing experience so it would probably a co-referee. I can help with translations and corrections, as well as updating some of the articles (a few of them are abysmal but it mostly affects patterns and the like).

per favore...

EDIT: apparently there isn’t a referee yet for Italian Eritrea.
