Flag Image?

The flag image has been deleted? Can someone find an image they can post and put it back here? Inkan1969 21:36, 11 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the new flag image, Osgoodelawyer. Inkan1969 22:05, 18 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'd like to make an svg version of the flag but I need a much larger logo to start from than is available anywhere online. If there are any Tamils (or anyone, for that matter) who have a printed copy of the logo that they can scan in high resolution for me, it would be greatly appreciated. _└ ^OzLawyer / _talk ^┐ 23:03, 17 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The Flag Changed the EYES ARE NOW IN WHITE and not red.

Vandal moves and edits

Recently, Snowolfd4 made a move and several vandal edits to the page. It should be clarified: this is the flag designated for Tamil Eelam. The flag of the LTTE has writing on it as shown by their emblem, and is NOT this flag. mnmazur voicemail

In case this wasn't clear enough: it does not matter whether or not Tamil Eelam is recognized or exists. This flag was designated as the flag of Tamil Eelam, and therefore the article should note that it is the Flag of Tamil Eelam in the page name. The flag of the LTTE is like this: http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_h9jM93aGqfs/R4N_85xMVuI/AAAAAAAAAo8/MNxPPg8bU58/s400/sl_tigers.gif (note the writing, name of the organization, etc). If someone wishes to make a separate article for that flag, they should do so, but the flags are not the same (as the article points out). Whether Snowolfd4's edits were well intentioned or not is not for me to decide, though I should hope he will not re-move the page. An analogous case would be calling the flag of Western Sahara the "flag of the Polisario" or calling the flag of Palestine the "PLO flag." Just because an organization uses a flag does not make it the flag of that organization. mnmazur voicemail

Proposed merge with Eruthu Paar Kodi

In this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Eruthu_Paar_Kodi#Eruthu_Paar_Kodi

discussion it was suggested that instead of deleting Eruthu Paar Kodi, we merge it to this one. Staglit (talk) 16:27, 31 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Support per my comment at AfD: "While the information is verifiable and significant, I just don't think there is enough to support a standalone article. This seems to be how most of the other language wikipedias handle it and the song article can always be broken out as a separate article in the future if more sources are found." 24.151.10.165 (talk) 17:41, 31 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

After the AfD closed as "delete", I asked the admin to restore and merged the text here. 24.151.10.165 (talk) 19:06, 5 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Move

I think you should quickly reverse the title change you recently made to Flag of Tamil Eelam. The article title has changed before (and been changed back) and there has been disucssion about that title change. ‎That means that you were required to consider any further title changes to be controversial: you cannot just change it to another title, you have to propose the change first, etc. You overlooked that rule when moving the Ahmet Ertegun article and the rule was explained to you after that, so you would not be able to plead ignorance. And of course any editor would be within their rights to reverse the title back to Flag of Tamil Eelam without discussion. Tiptoethrutheminefield (talk) 21:43, 5 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't do the move but I think the move was probably done to reflect the merger of Eruthu Paar Kodi to here. I don't have any opinion on the title myself, just wanted to note that I don't think it was unreasonable given the change. 24.151.10.165 (talk) 17:42, 6 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
