Should Costa Rica have a coat of arms on their flag?
I have seen the flag of Costa Rica with the coat of arms many times. Should it have the coat of arms or should it be left off? OMGShay 92 (talk) 08:33, 10 May 2023 (UTC)
- Seconding this and extending it to Peru, Bolivia, and Venezuela as well. The civil flags without the emblems are official and used, but the state flags seem to be much more common in use as a de facto all-around national flag Crazy Boris (talk) 00:11, 27 September 2023 (UTC)
- It looks like the flags of Bolivia, Costa Rica, and Peru have been changed to add the coat of arms, but not Venezuela; should the flag with the coat of arms also be used for Venezuela? Cloudcounter (talk) 18:51, 6 April 2024 (UTC)
Links to galleries at Commons
I have removed the table with 'See also'-links to 'Sovereign state flags in [year]' galleries at Commons. The reason is that these galleries have gotten completely out of hand. In the last couple of months, they have been expanded and filled up with unsourced 'Other entities', 'Other cultural', 'Sovereign U.S. states' (sic!) etc. to the point of being made completely valueless for an encyclopedia.

Edits made on February 23rd
Many odd edits have been made on February 23rd, 2024 (Template change, some flag images changed, etc.). Should we revert them ? ChaseYUL99 (talk) 23:13, 23 February 2024 (UTC)
- Yes, as it was easier to edit the flags as an image gallery instead of a gallery template. For the nth time (talk) 10:36, 9 April 2024 (UTC)
Cook Islands and Niue
These two are territories of UN recognised countries. I don't think they belong in this article. Can someone please clarify why they should remain, as I'm thinking about deleting them. For the nth time (talk) 10:31, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
Jamaica and Japan out of alphabetical order.
