Channel Island Flags
Hi! I have just discovered you and I firstly want to thank you for the fantastic vexillological work you are doing on behalf of people like me who are not technologically capable of doing your work. A particular thanks goes to adding the flags of the parishes of Jersey.
On the topic of the Channel Islands, would you be able to add the flags Guernsey's ten parishes? In addition, would you be able to update the flag of Brecqhou and stick it in the info box at the top? The flag should have the Barkley Brother's coat of arms in the bottom right of the flag... although now one of the brothers has passed away, does this mean that the flag changes again?
Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by D-FRIEZ99 (talk • contribs) 22:19, 29 August 2022 (UTC)
- A little difficult, but I can definitely do. Flagvisioner (talk) 00:08, 30 August 2022 (UTC)
- I apologize greatly!
- I have started to work on the parish flags of Guernsey. Please forgive me for the long wait. Flagvisioner (talk) (contribs)

File:Oneida County, NY Flag.svg
Thanks for converting this file to SVG. There's a typo in the new file: It should say Rome (as in Category:Rome, New York), not Reme. The original File:Us-ny-on.gif was pretty blurry, and it does look halfway between Rome and Reme. -Apocheir (talk) 20:42, 3 May 2022 (UTC)
It's also been brought to my attention that that isn't the current flag of Oneida County. The current one has the county seal instead of the pop-out and emblem with city names. See, for example, . I'm not sure if the copyright considerations for the seal would allow an updated version. -Apocheir (talk) 20:52, 3 May 2022 (UTC)
- Alright. Thank you! I will be fixing the typo soon. The county seal seems to be fair use, so I'm afraid I can't update the flag, although I can probably upload a very heavily oversimplified one as a free version. Or, I could upload a much better and detailed version, although marked as fair use. --Flagvisioner (talk) 02:31, 4 May 2022 (UTC)
Flag of Kwajalein Atoll
Hi, Flagvisioner! I figured that since you made File:Kwajalein Atoll Flag.svg, I'd let you know that the atoll adopted a new flag back in February of this year, which can be seen here, if you wish to make a vector version of that one as well. By the way, I appreciate the work you've done with these flags! HapHaxion (talk / contribs) 16:28, 4 August 2022 (UTC)
- Thank you!
- I plan on doing a vectorization of the flag soon. Flagvisioner (talk) 21:50, 4 August 2022 (UTC)
Coat of Arms/Seals
Do you also make Coat of Arms/seals since if you see my contribution page you’ll see what I want. CubanoBoi (talk) 00:01, 5 August 2022 (UTC)
- I don't make coats of arms or seals unless it is part of a flag (and if I have vectorized the flag). I can try, but I am not the greatest at it. Flagvisioner (talk) 00:13, 5 August 2022 (UTC)
Thanks, do you know anyone who is good at coat of arms?CubanoBoi (talk) 14:51, 5 August 2022 (UTC)
- Not personally, but a few examples of people who create coat of arms include Sodacan, Jack Ryan Morris (not too sure if Jack does requests, though).
- There are others, which you can probably find by searching through the creators of files of coats of arms. Flagvisioner (talk) 19:36, 5 August 2022 (UTC)
Pembroke Pines
Can you add a flag for Pembroke Pines, Florida? Seen here : https://www.fotw.info/flags/us-flpbp.html also it saids the border is green when it’s a green border with a smaller white border. CubanoBoi (talk) 15:06, 5 August 2022 (UTC)
- A little time consuming, but I am definitely able to. Flagvisioner (talk) 19:37, 5 August 2022 (UTC)
- Done with both the flag & seal. In total, took about 4 hours to vectorize both.
- Flag is at File:Flag of Pembroke Pines, Florida.svg and seal is at File:Seal of Pembroke Pines, Florida.svg
- Flagvisioner (talk) 02:59, 6 August 2022 (UTC)
Jagüey Grande
Sorry to disturb and make you do so many request, but can you also do Jagüey Grande, Cuba? The flag is here https://www.crwflags.com/fotw/flags/cu-jaggr.html. Also next time can you add ~~~~ to the end so I get the notification CubanoBoi (talk) 02:02, 6 August 2022 (UTC)
- I am afraid I am not able to vectorize the coat of arms in its style. It would take very, very long and would probably look comparable to the image. Instead, I have autotraced the coat of arms.
- The flag can now be found at File:Flag of Jagüey Grande, Cuba.svg
- And do I not add the 4 tildes? I am pretty sure I do.

File:Bandera del Directorio Revolucionario Estudiantil.svg
On File:Bandera del Directorio Revolucionario Estudiantil.svg you put the 13 up and you unfinished the R, in the photo you mentioned they did that by accident. On the second image here http://www.escambray.cu/tag/directorio-revolucionario-13-de-marzo/ they fixed it but the colors changed. (I’m most cases of the flag it’s the same colors you put tho) CubanoBoi (talk) 02:36, 9 August 2022 (UTC)
- Alright. I have drawn the flag (and its text) to how it is shown in the image. Though, I have a few questions:
- Where is your source for the flag going from white to blue, rather than blue to red being the correct one?
- Where is your source for the colors being done incorrect accidentally?
- Please note that I haven't read the entire article myself, so please inform me if it is found in there. Flagvisioner (talk) 03:04, 9 August 2022 (UTC)
The old colors are fine as seen in these photos: page one of https://www.moesbooks.com/pages/books/88271/rene-jimenez/album-de-la-revolucion-cubana-1952-1959. On http://cubamuseo.net/inferior-collection/443 if you go to “Galería de Imágenes” and go to F02 you’ll find the logo. Here is a flag in 2018 http://www.ohcamaguey.cu/desembarco-por-nuevitas-de-los-combatientes-del-directorio-revolucionario-13-de-marzo/. Here is a purse I think https://observatoriocriticocuba.org/2012/04/20/gloria-a-los-martires-de-humboldt-7/ CubanoBoi (talk) 12:48, 9 August 2022 (UTC)
Also the flag I reverted should be a different file CubanoBoi (talk) 12:53, 9 August 2022 (UTC)
Also I’m so sorry for making you spent so much time on these flags, I’ll not request any more (unless my home municipality in cuba gets a flag which it probably won’t since they still haven’t replied to my request) CubanoBoi (talk) 12:55, 9 August 2022 (UTC)
Can you also make the text bigger on that file and upload the file I redirected to a new file? CubanoBoi (talk) 19:12, 9 August 2022 (UTC)
Bandera de Mexicali/Fiag of Mexicali
Hola, respecto a lo que pasó en ES:WP, te quiero comentar que Mexicali no tiene ninguna bandera oficial, por cierto, las referencias que incluiste no veo que especifiquen algo relacionado con una «Bandera de Mexicali», además, tampoco creo que YouTube sea una fuente fiable o totalmente real.
Otra cosa, si te molestaste por haberte reportado, te quiero mencionar que de igual manera un bibliotecario te ubiera bloqueado por estar evadiendo un bloqueo por segunda vez y tus cambios ubieran sido revertidos. ¡Saludos! (I do not speak english). Inc 12345* (talk) 03:13, 14 August 2022 (UTC)
- Hola. Aunque Mexicali no parece tener una bandera oficial, creo que debería mencionarse como "con uso no oficial".
- Youtube no se considera una fuente confiable, pero no cambia que se vea en videos o fotos con el gobierno del municipio.
- Y no me molesta, me molesta que borraron mi página de discusión después de que intenté apelar. Ni siquiera dicen cómo puedes pedir que te desbloqueen si no tienes un correo electrónico agregado a tu cuenta. Se siente casi como si no quisieran que apelaras.

Flag of guanabacoa
Hi, can you make a flag of this http://www.siemprecubanos.com/c/43316/10010/guanabacoa.html the most bottom image, it’s the flag of guanabacoa, cuba. Also can you make the letters on File: Bandera del Directorio Revolucionario Estudiantil.svg bigger as seen on my page 2 on https://www.moesbooks.com/pages/books/88271/rene-jimenez/album-de-la-revolucion-cubana-1952-1959 and http://www.ohcamaguey.cu/desembarco-por-nuevitas-de-los-combatientes-del-directorio-revolucionario-13-de-marzo/ CubanoBoi (talk) 18:39, 15 August 2022 (UTC)
- Apologies for the very late response , but I will be doing so soon. Flagvisioner (talk) 20:54, 20 August 2022 (UTC)
Thank you CubanoBoi (talk) 14:08, 21 August 2022 (UTC)
- Done with the flag of Guanabacoa. It is available at File:Bandera de Guanabacoa, Cuba.svg
I have also added an image with the fringe. I would also like to point out that the flag you uploaded seems to be very off (proportions, coat of arms, coat of arms is seen in the flag as not centered.) While the image wasn't too clear, I was able to make out a few things out of it.
Also, very sorry for the late response. I don't get around to doing things until it is very late. Flagvisioner (talk) 02:51, 25 August 2022 (UTC)
"Colors according to Vexilla Mundi"
Czech city flags rarely have consistent palettes, this holds little weight (I skip the middleman and pick colours "according to me, personally") and making changes is a waste of time imo. For Zlín it's still different than their website shows for example. TFerenczy (talk) 07:19, 22 August 2022 (UTC)
- Alright. Thank you for the advice. Flagvisioner (talk) 01:57, 23 August 2022 (UTC)

Another Cuban municipality flag
Hi flag guy (I forgot the second part of your name) and you add the flag of Caimito, Cuba which is a cyan blue color and the shield in the middle, it should come up if you google “Bandera de Caimito, Cuba” and also thanks for following me on reddit CubanoBoi (talk) 03:33, 28 August 2022 (UTC)
- Hello. I will work on it tomorrow (or possibly later?), as I live in western united states and it is getting late. Tell me if there is anything else you want me to vectorize. And don't worry about wasting my time, I vectorize flags as practice (plus, it is fun to do, only problem is time consuming). Flagvisioner (talk) 05:33, 28 August 2022 (UTC)
- Turquoise would probably be more correct.
- Also, is the white border intentional? I try to open up the site and it doesn't let me. Maybe because my IP is in the United States? And is there a better quality image of the coat of arms? I can't see things clearly on the coat of arms posted by the government of Caimito Muncipality Flagvisioner (talk) 20:13, 28 August 2022 (UTC)

Flag request
Hello,
I hope everything is alright. If it isn't too much trouble for you, I was wondering if you could vectorize and make an SVG file for the city flag of Wilmington, North Carolina? The best (and only version of the flag online) is from FOTW and it is just a cropped image of a mast. The flag is basically the city seal with gold text around it on a navy blue background. I understand if you can't do it but thanks for your time anyways.
have a great day! DiscoA340 (talk) 03:11, 30 August 2022 (UTC)
- I think I might be able to. Only question I have is: do you know what font it is? I'm not too good with fonts. Flagvisioner (talk) 03:13, 30 August 2022 (UTC)
- Good question, the font seems to be a basic typeface. Doing some trail and error on word, it seems the font could be 'Georgia' or some variant of 'Times New Roman.' Online font identifiers can't seem to identify it due to the image quality. Sorry about that, but I think one of those or some other basic font would to the trick, Thanks again! DiscoA340 (talk) 03:29, 30 August 2022 (UTC)
- Not Times New Roman or Georgian. I've seen it before, but I'm not too sure what the name is. Flagvisioner (talk) 03:30, 30 August 2022 (UTC)

File:Flag of Kinshasa, DRC.svg
Hi Flagvisioner! I was wondering if you could update the Flag of Kinshasa based on this image: https://www.politico.cd/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Photo-Gentiny-Ngobila-3-300x169.jpeg as I do not have the rights to do it. Thanks! Strenatos (talk) 22:57, 9 November 2023 (UTC)
- Hello,
- What exactly do you mean by you "not having the rights to do it"? Also, the image is not very clear. I am guessing the figure and the "tree" are yellow. Flagvisioner (talk) 02:47, 11 November 2023 (UTC)
- when I try to change the flag, or any image for that matter, it says "You attempted to overwrite a file that was not initially uploaded by you. You currently do not have sufficient permissions to do this." This is due to me not having the Autopatrolling rights Strenatos (talk) 03:28, 23 February 2024 (UTC)

Request to confirm validity of Mongol Tug
Hi Flagvisioner, I was trying to add a Mongol War banner I sourced from https://artsandculture.google.com/story/mongolian-empire-the-national-museum-of-mongolia/TwWB3jMjdJwYKg?hl=en to the the Mongol Empire page, but it got removed. I had a discussion with the person who removed it and they claimed that since it was a battle banner and not a symbol of the mongol empire it shouldn't be added. Since you are a specialist in Vexillology, could you confirm the validity of the banner and if it should be added to the infobox? Sci Show With Moh (talk) 13:18, 14 September 2023 (UTC)
- Hello,
- I am not denying its validity of existence, if the national museum contains a copy then there is certainly good reason to believe it existed. It would probably best be suited for another page, probably relating to Mongol standards or Mongol conquest. However, it is good to also note that the article for the Roman Empire uses its vexillum, a standard really ONLY used by the army, possibly the same case here. So it is disputable, however I am not sure how exactly to help further with this. Also, these types of banners are more appropriately termed as "vexilloids". @Sci Show With Moh Flagvisioner (talk) 03:54, 28 November 2023 (UTC)
- Thank you! I am currently working on a page related to mongol standards & emblems like you suggested. Sci Show With Moh (talk) 12:59, 28 November 2023 (UTC)
- Also, do you think a link to the page about mongol standards in the infobox would be fitting for the page? Sci Show With Moh (talk) 13:01, 28 November 2023 (UTC)
- No, not really. Flagvisioner (talk) 19:27, 1 December 2023 (UTC)

Alexphangia Talk 15:38, 4 August 2024 (UTC)
- Done with most. The Commons policy of not allowing images to be overwritten unless an exception is made is rather annoying, and I don't want to go through that right now; I think it was fine before, and this new policy creates a whole new workload for moderators.
- Also, I'm sure you've noticed that I barely use Commons today. You are free to contact me to vectorize any images, but keep in mind that I've been focusing on searching for flags and information about them instead, to contribute to Flags of the World.

File source is not properly indicated: File:Pimicikamak Cree Nation Flag.svg

A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:Pimicikamak Cree Nation Flag.svg, was missing information about where it comes from or who created it, which is needed to verify its copyright status. The file probably has been deleted. If you've got all required information, request undeletion providing this information and the link to the concerned file ( [[:File:Pimicikamak Cree Nation Flag.svg]]).
If you created the content yourself, enter If someone else created the content, or if it is based on someone else's work, the source should be the address to the web page where you found it, the name and ISBN of the book you scanned it from, or similar. You should also name the author, provide verifiable information to show that the content is in the public domain or has been published under a free license by its author, and add an appropriate template identifying the public domain or licensing status, if you have not already done so. Warning: Wikimedia Commons takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. Please add the required information for this and other files you have uploaded before adding more files. If you need assistance, please ask at the help desk. Thank you! |
And also:
Edit to add: I'm worried this automated template is misleading. When it says "If you created the content yourself" it's talking about who holds the copyright, not whether you were the person to sit down and create the SVG version. Legally speaking, recreating a raster image as an SVG is considered a reconstruction - and if the original work is copyrighted, that means it's a copyright violation.
I also tagged File:Flag of the Rapid City Police Department.svg with No Permission Given because I could see no evidence of copyright permission. On all three of these flags you claim to be "author" and I think you should know that just making an SVG version of a file does not confer authorship status nor copyright holding. So you should not be using tags like {{PD-self}} or {{self|cc-zero}} unless you are the actual copyright holder. Even if the image is public domain, it's incorrect for you to be claiming you have the right to release it public domain unless you hold the copyright. It's important to provide source information that provides provenance of a given file so that we can be use the copyright and attribution are correct.
It's great you're making high quality SVGs, that's important work that takes effort and skill. But the way to credit for yourself is with: |other fields={{Igen|Inkscape|+|u=[[User:Flagvisioner|Flagvisioner]]}} . (Replace Inkscape with whatever SVG software you're using, as needed).
The author field is intended for the original designer (i.e. copyright holder). I recommend you look over other files you've uploaded to be sure the have correct author information and licensing. I'm hoping this will be a straightforward task for you to provide the necessary information.
Yours sincerely, Intervex (talk) 23:48, 22 November 2024 (UTC)
- In all honesty, I believe it is even stupid that a symbol representing a group of people is not automatically in the public-domain; obviously people want to control its usage (Aborigine flag ex. and usually cities don’t see their flags as symbols of the people, just municipal government) but regardless; if they are viewed as “symbols of the people” they should be easily “available to the people”.
- Yes, I know how to properly attribute properly. I simply marked myself as the author because it was easier, but I’m not gonna do that now; I don’t use Commons enough to care about doing so now. Plus, many of these files may include contacting tribal authorities for confirmation of permission; it’s not too late——you could do so before these files are deleted!
- Also, remember; there are actual Indians out there who get images printed off of Wikimedia Commons as flags; in order to obtain the tribal flag, they must go through more hurdles to do so without these easily accessible images. Flagvisioner (talk) 00:07, 27 November 2024 (UTC)

Third, the City of San Luis explicitly told me their flag is copyright-free through an email. And fourth, these all can be used educationally in the infobox for the place in question. Maybe do some research, actually *try* to see if the image in question can be saved instead of outright deleting it? Flagvisioner (talk) 16:22, 3 May 2025 (UTC)
- These were claimed as your own work. The flag of San Luis had no permission anyway. Next time try some humility after making mistakes. And I did not even bother going through all of your contributions because you have many copyvios out there. Bedivere (talk) 16:34, 3 May 2025 (UTC)
- Really? I uploaded those files a long time ago; I obviously just didn't fill the proper information in for them, and believe me, there are probably hundreds of thousands of files out there that are falsely marked as "Own work" that *could* be deleted, but just need the proper information placed in (author/template/source). Obviously the San Luis one in a sense is my fault because I could have submitted a request, but it seemed like a lengthy process (though I could be incorrect) especially considering the City takes months to respond to emails.

Your flag of Belize City is outdated
the one you made was used from 2009-2019 https://www.crwflags.com/fotw/flags/bz-bz-bz.html Finnfrog99 (talk) 13:26, 28 December 2025 (UTC)
- Correct, I was the one that did the research on that page. Technically, Belize City has not had any flag; the flag it flies is of its City Council, as can be read on the flag. Flagvisioner (talk) 16:01, 28 December 2025 (UTC)

- @Yann: @Flagvisioner: Sorry, I forgot that the lock message on Nuke them that says "Long-term abuse: Flagvisioner" was probably referring to Flagvisioner2026, which I assume is named as such to impersonate Flagvisioner.

- That's fair; lots of these sockpuppet accounts use my username. Not sure if to take that as an honor or not! I do believe these types of accounts often just like to post fictitious flags or whatnot. Not sure what the fun is in that. Flagvisioner (talk) 01:02, 14 April 2026 (UTC)
- It at least means the sock master(s?) thinks your account is known enough that people might overlook files uploaded by something like Flagvisioner2026 because they think it was uploaded by you. Which unfortunately sort of worked in reverse this time. Emk9 (talk) 01:19, 14 April 2026 (UTC)

Supuesta bandera de Hermosillo
Dado que el espacio de los resúmenes de edición es limitado, te dejaré una explicación más detallada. Tal y como tú mismo reconociste en tu resumen de edición "No existe ley que la aprueba, entonces no es oficial". Por lo tanto, lo apropiado es indicar que la imagen no representa una bandera oficial, lo cual es explicado en la plantilla: "esta bandera, en particular, NO es oficial ni está reconocida".
Las referencias que utilizas no hablan del tema de la bandera, por lo tanto no pueden ser consideradas como fuentes válidas para el tema. Tu idea de una bandera de Hermosillo depende de demasiadas suposiciones arriesgadas, inaceptables para un proyecto serio. Entre ellas:
- Asumir que el objeto que aparece en el fondo de una foto es una bandera y no un estandarte u otro objeto decorativo semejante.
- Asumir que la supuesta bandera está destinada a representar al municipio de Hermosillo y no a alguna otra corporación, institución o persona.
- Asumir que el hecho de que las personas aparezcan físicamente cerca de la supuesta bandera implica que la reconocen como válida o legítima, sin que hayan hecho ninguna declaración al respecto.
- Asumir un diseño completo a partir de una imagen parcial de un objeto que aparece en el fondo.
Es por eso que es importante contar con documentos oficiales que avalen los hechos, en lugar de construirnos una realidad a partir de interpretar fotografías aleatorias. Si las banderas que publicas no cuentan con fuentes oficiales que demuestren su veracidad, entonces deben ser marcadas con la plantilla correspondiente para advertir a los demás usuarios de que no se trata de una bandera con validez oficial. Te agradezco por tu comprensión. AntoFran (talk) 22:41, 8 June 2026 (UTC)
- Hola :)
- En vez de ir a buscar a alguien para borrar esa imagen inmediatamente (no he visto nada de las platicas que ustedes tuvieron, pero el moderador lo marcó como "ficticio"), por favor es mucho más razonable tener una discusión sobre si mantener la imagen o no. Sí, quise agregar unos puntos más, pero como dijiste en el resumen caben insuficientes palabras.
- Creo que te acuerdas de mí. Obviamente, me encanta ver sobre los símbolos municipales, incluso los escudos municipales. Pensaría que esto será una discusión larga, para pensar en cada pregunta o duda que puedas tener.
- Con respecto a tus puntos:
- 1. Pues, esa bandera obviamente no es un estandarte. Es muy obvio que es un lienzo blanco con el escudo municipal, colgado a una asta. Todavía, esos estandartes de Municipios son otra forma de ser "bandera"; en muchos municipios de Guanajuato, usan este tipo de bandera. También estos tipos de banderas se ven en uso en países como Italia, pero obviamente es más dificil agregar a la plantilla de un artículo porque sería como mentir en mostrar una imagen que obviamente no es rectangular como una "bandera".
- 2. Sí representa el Municipio de Hermosillo; es muy posible que la bandera fue comprada con el dinero de los contribuyentes del Municipio. Yo creo, te diré, que ví hace unos meses en mi búsqueda de más banderas municipales que existió un presupuesto del Municipio que decía "BANDERA MUNICIPAL". Yo creo que si esa bandera no representara a su Municipio, sería una vergüenza para el gobierno. "¿Que ahora resulta que el Municipio tiene una bandera con un símbolo público que existe para representar el presidente municipal?..." No, no creo que eso es un caso posible. Solo es posible si la bandera dice el nombre de la persona o tiene otro logotípo, como hemos visto en Coacalco de Berriozabál. Ese municipio ha tenido muchas banderas con logotípos de ayuntamiento, pero se me hace que no hay ninguna hasta la fecha que tenga su insignia oficial. En esos casos, se podrá decir que no es bandera municipal, solo es bandera del Ayuntamiento.
- 3. ¿No? Dije eso para destacar que esa bandera se usa en una oficina del Gobierno con su gobierno respectivo; en la fuente de la bandera de Hermosillo, es la sala de las sesiones del gobierno de Hermosillo. Lo único que se puede implicar de las autoridades es que la bandera tiene un carácter oficial, que se usa mientras las autoridades están ejercitando sus cargos oficiales allí.
- 4. Entiendo la importancia de ser precavido en estas situaciones; pero, es un dato claro que casi todos los municipios que tienen una bandera tiene una con el mismo tipo de diseño que Hermosillo: blanco con el escudo municipal en su centro. Hay imagenes en linea que tienen una vista completa de la bandera. Es posible que muchas banderas en linea fueron reconstruidas; es casi imposible preguntar a cada municipio por una imagen oficial. ¿Por qué hay imagenes de los escudos municipales en todas partes y no de las banderas? Es mucho más facil de exponer un escudo que una bandera; por eso, no ves banderas en páginas oficiales de los gobiernos municipales, solo logotípos (incluso los escudos municipales).
- Últimamente, te digo: He hablado con autoridades sobre los símbolos municipales; varias veces, cuando pregunto sobre la historia de su escudo y de qué ley la aprobó, varias veces me dicen "no sé" o "no hay ningún ley que conocemos que la aprueba". ¿Qué hacemos con estos escudos si no existe ley que las aprueba? ¿No son oficiales o qué? Para mí, es una pregunta difícil, pero yo los considero como tal: que son utilizados oficialmente, pero no aprobados legalmente; lo mismo se aplica con las banderas, y eso que los escudos siempre terminan en la plantilla de un artículo, no como las banderas por razones similares a los que has destacado. No me gusta la plantilla que agregaste a la bandera porque se me hace que un usuario pueda pensar que es ficticio, pero en realidad si sirve porque no tiene "capacidad totalmente oficial". Lo único es que es imposible agregarla a cada (o casi todas) banderas y escudos municipales que no fueron aprobados por ley. Las banderas municipales forman un nuevo fenómeno en México; cuando pregunto a las autoridades sobre su bandera, no saben de qué bandera pregunto, es más posible que piensan que me refiero a la de México, su querida patria; al del Municipio, muchos solo lo conocen como otra forma de exponer el Escudo Municipal, pero aún ellos saben que es una bandera cuando digo "el que lleva el escudo municipal". A veces, también me dicen "me acuerdo que la secretaria compró la bandera hace diez años" y cosas así...sí existen algunos municipios patrióticos de su lienzo blanco también, que me cuentan toda su historia aunque casi siempre es limitada y no tan interesante como las historias de los escudos. Flagvisioner (talk) 06:47, 9 June 2026 (UTC)
- Para que lo veas, aquí se encuentra la mención de la bandera de Hermosillo en su página oficial:, marcado como Bandera Municipal. Todavía, todas esas banderas con el escudo municipal se puedan mantener en la plantilla de un artículo porque es la bandera que representa el Municipio; casi todos los Municipios en este continente, incluso en los Estados Unidos, no tienen una ley que las aprueba. Y aún, casi todas estas banderas están mantenidas en la plantilla de un artículo. También hay municipios en Europa que no tienen ley aprobando su bandera, aunque menos común, estas banderas siempre se agregan a la plantilla de un artículo. En los Estados Unidos y otros países Latinoamericanas, saben claramente que sus banderas municipales sí son banderas, pero como he dicho que las banderas municipales son un nuevo fenómeno en México, muchas autoridades las consideran nomás como otra forma de representar el Municipio; pero sí, porque son banderas que se usan para representar el Municipio, son banderas municipales.

Flag of Selnau-City (Zürich) based on Quartierverein COA? (unofficial)
Dear Flagvisioner,
Hope you are doing great! Thank you so much for the exceptional work you have done on Wikipedia in the vexillological and heraldic fields -- truly impressive.
I have noticed that you have produced great flag and COA renditions for Grünau (Zürich), an unofficial subdivision of the city of Zurich, represented by a Quartierverein... See here:
- https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:CHE_Gr%C3%BCnau_ZH_Flag.svg
- https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:CHE_Gr%C3%BCnau_ZH_COA.svg
To complete the full roster of Kreise, Quartiere, Zünfte and Quartiervereine in Stadt Zürich, do you think you could possibly look at producing flag and COA renditions for Selnau-City (Zürich), which is a similar unofficial subdivision of the city of Zurich, also represented by a Quartierverein? Here is some information:
Thanks in advance for your thoughts; I turn to you, as I think you would be perfect for the job of "completing" the Stadt Zürich heraldry and vexillology... There is not much left to do!
