Southern Sudan and Somaliland flags

There is no evidence about pan-arab signification on both Southern Sudan and Somaliland flags SomalilandSouthern Sudan


actually the Somaliland Flag is an almost exact replica of the old Yemenish Flag, but with colors changed.

Afghanistan

The flag of Afghanistan is surely another example:

Afghanistan are not Arab. Mussav (talk) 22:08, 22 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Inaccuracy in flags

Where is Ahwaz? There is no country called Ahwaz. There is an Iranian city by the name Ahvaz. If there is a secessionist movement in that city or region, almost no one has heard of it. Also, the flag is not recognized anywhere. Either the picture needs to be taken off or a disclaimer needs to be added. mrjahan —Preceding comment was added at 21:18, 4 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Countries This is not an article about countries, it is an article about Pan-Arab colors. If a flag has the Pan-Arab colors, it should be listed here. I can't speak for how acclaimed this flag of al-Ahwaz is, but if the flag should be deleted, nominate it. As long as it's on Wikipedia, it should be on this page. -Justin (koavf)TCM21:26, 4 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I removed Ahwaz flag as per Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Flag_of_Al-Ahwaz. --Asteriontalk 14:54, 5 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Andalucia

In what possible sense is Andalucia's flag related to Pan Arab colours? It has Green & White in an unrelated pattern. While perhaps arguably tied back to Andalucia's Islamic heritage that does not make it "Pan Arab" I am removing. collounsbury (talk) 16:50, 24 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Lebanese Flag

Eventhough the Lebanese flag contains red and green their meaning and reason of using them is not related in any way to the pan arabic colors —Preceding unsigned comment added by Atmleb (talkcontribs) 23:52, 26 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Other countries

How about the flags of other countries which also contain black, white, green, and red, like the Flag of South Africa? Does a country have to be considered an "Arab country" for its colors to be considered "pan-Arab colors"? --98.210.210.193 (talk) 07:02, 27 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Those would most likely be Pan-Arab colors by coincidence. --Supreme Deliciousness (talk) 10:41, 27 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I'd add a "Non-Arab countries" section, at the very least to avoid it being up many times in the future. — MK (t/c) 15:59, 8 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Flag of South Sudan

Flag of South Sudan does not have Pan-Arab background but Pan_African meaning.Colors are similar but the meaning is completely different. The colours are said to represent the South Sudanese people (black), peace (white), the blood shed for freedom (red), the land (green) and the waters of the Nile (blue); the gold star, the Star of Bethlehem, represents unity of the states of South Sudan. So it should be removed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 178.148.44.228 (talk) 14:49, 11 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Flag of Libya

The flag of Libya since the 1951 - 1969 will be the official flag for Libya, which is under the Pan-Arab colors section. Please do not add the Libyan Arab Jamahiriya flag into the Arab Flags not using Pan-Arab colors section.
