In this phrase:
Shekel is any of several ancient units of weight or of currency in ancient Israel
Please change "is" to "was", since ancient Israel was thousands of years ago. 123.51.107.94 (talk) 23:43, 4 February 2024 (UTC)

- What? That page says Generally, use past tense only for past events, and for subjects that are dead or no longer meaningfully exist. The shekel was a unit in ancient Israel, but it is not in ancient Israel, because ancient Israel doesn't exist anymore. Biblical and Talmudic units of measurement begins with "Biblical and Talmudic units of measurement were", not "Biblical and Talmudic units of measurement are". 123.51.107.94 (talk) 23:43, 5 February 2024 (UTC)
- It's still the current definition ("an ancient unit of weight") of a past object. E.g., dodo: The dodo is an extinct flightless bird. Hyphenation Expert (talk) 00:48, 7 February 2024 (UTC)

Please remove this phrase:
from June 1952 until 23 February 1980, when it was replaced with the shekel on 24 February 1980
and replace it with this:
from June 1952 until it was replaced with the shekel on 24 February 1980.
It's shorter, and one can assume that it was the currency one day before its replacement. 123.51.107.94 (talk) 23:43, 11 March 2024 (UTC)
NIS exchange value table
editI propose we add 2021, what is the costum in Wikipedia? Which date in 2021? Average exchange value in 2021? O.maximov (talk) 12:49, 29 June 2024 (UTC)
- If not average value is it January 1st? O.maximov (talk) 12:49, 29 June 2024 (UTC)
The "An" should be "A".
edit"An ₪1 note followed on 8 May 1986 and the ₪100 note issued on 19 August 1986."
The "An" should be "A". Jorandirkzwager (talk) 23:29, 6 December 2024 (UTC)

change "NIS" to "NIS, New Israeli Shekel" AndryDavies (talk) 08:45, 5 July 2025 (UTC)
Not done: Unclear where this is being requested. Infobox already says "New Israeli Shekel" above it. SI09 (talk) 11:52, 5 July 2025 (UTC)

edit- DEM and EUR exchange rates may be swapped or calculated incorrectly. 1 EUR = 1.95583 DEM

Revert change: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Israeli_new_shekel&diff=prev&oldid=1285452910 Neutrality of this change is questionable given the wording and selective bias in its referenced source.
Remove: </ref> The shekel in modern times is often highly volatile caused by Israel's policies, with many countries since 2022 refusing to economically cooperate with Israel.[1][2][3][4] Hdfdisk (talk) 18:46, 11 February 2026 (UTC)
- Not done: those sources are all reliable and a source being biased is not a reason to remove it, as long as it's reliable and factually accurate. Feel free to reopen this if you have substantiated doubts about the factual validity of the claims. 🍅 fx (talk) 19:03, 11 February 2026 (UTC)
"De-facto legal" is an oxymoron
editDe-facto means "in reality" implying that the thing isn't de jure (by law), whereas "legal tender" is a currency recognised and enforced by law (de jure)
It should be replaced by "de-facto means of exchange" or "de-facto currency" LeviAckerman3855 (talk) 09:55, 23 April 2026 (UTC)
The shekel in modern times is often highly volatile
editreally? It sounds like it goes up and down a lot, but in reality it only went up since 2023 (vs USD or EUR). ~2026-32431-70 (talk) 10:55, 1 June 2026 (UTC)
