And then perhaps have it so we can change it for the few notes that are not rectangular? This saves a step for the many new contributors.

I do think this would help. So many are rectangular.
I found a couple emergency banknotes from Indian princely states to be round (and one to be octagonal), but other than those... all rectangles.

Why don't you make an drop-down menu for that? So that all the basic shape pre put we just have to select it.

If you find a few oddballs it would be hard to put it in, and that would require an update to the catalog to put in. I think it should be auto-set to rectangular so I don't have to type it in every time. But if you do find a weird oddball shape, you can then edit it in.

Hello,
The shape has been changed to a dropdown list instead of a free text (see also
here). This ensures consistency, no typo and easier translation. It's also possible to select "Other" and add more details.
And the option "rectangular" is preselected.
Status changed to Implemented
