Dollar symbol
The Australian dollar symbol used to have 2 downstrokes. I don't know when this changed. If someone knows it would probably be a good point to include. jayoval (talk) 22:55, 17 September 2012 (UTC) The Australian dollar symbol never had two downstrokes, only one.

Please unlock the article, I need to add the local nickname for the aud, "dollarydoo". 58.160.129.180 (talk) 01:22, 20 October 2015 (UTC)
- That's what got the article semi-protected in the first place. Do you have a reliable source for that nickname? clpo13(talk) 01:24, 20 October 2015 (UTC)
- There are lots of sources, e.g. http://www.cnbc.com/2015/10/16/petition-to-rename-the-australian-dollar-to-the-dollarydoo.html, http://www.marketwatch.com/story/a-petition-to-call-australias-currency-the-dollarydoo-has-50000-signatures-2015-10-19.
- 57 000 people have signed a petition (I can't link to it because change.org is blacklisted by Wikipedia) to change the name of the Australian Dollar to the "Dollarydoo"; this has received widespread media coverage. This probably isn't notable enough to be mentioned in the lede, but it should be mentioned somewhere in the article. Best to reach a consensus before adding it, though, as this is clearly controversial. Chessrat (talk,contributions) 16:44, 20 October 2015 (UTC)
