Talk:Flag of Italy

message: It's not red, white and green because Italy was made to copy France's flag, but Napoleon's favourite colour was green? Any truth in this anecdote? Wikidea 14:38, 30 November 2008 (UTC)

message: The graphic flag of the kingdom of Italy seems to have got detached from the text about the kingdom - it should be moved down next to it, but I don't know how to do it (and I'm too lazy to find out). Nick boyd (talk) 18:03, 19 November 2009 (UTC)

La prima bandiera è giusta, è quella nazionale.
Nel box la seconda bandiera e quella della marina (naval flag) per usi civili.
La terza è quella della marina militare (navy force flag).

replies: text: There are numerous references for the rendered values on that page, including the only one that matters, the official converter on Pantone's site.  If you'd like to use that site as a reference and ALL the values that go with it, be my guest.  Otherwise it's unreferenced. ¦ Reisio (talk) 15:20, 6 February 2011 (UTC)

text: The Gymanistics Federation of Italy is the source of the (irrelevant 2003-based) Pantone color values in the PDF you used as a reference. ¦ Reisio (talk) 21:04, 6 February 2011 (UTC)

text: If you look at the PDF, it cites a Gymnastics Federation of Italy document as its source.  The Italian Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry, of course, would also not be an authority on PMS colors/conversion or Italian law, anyways. ¦ Reisio (talk) 21:10, 6 February 2011 (UTC)

text: Even so, it's not verifiable because it (the Italian Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry PDF) cites as source a Gymnastics Federation of Italy PDF which cites no source at all (and again, only Italian law and official Pantone conversion systems would be relevant anyways).It's also simply inapplicable, as it pertains to the PMS values from the older law, not the values we mention in this article. ¦ Reisio (talk) 21:43, 6 February 2011 (UTC)

text: It's clearly attributable to the Gymnastics Federation of Italy, and while I question that organization as relevant to the issue (as I would the Italian Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry, if it had values of its own), both organizations are irrelevant, because the PMS values in the documents are for the older 2003 colors, not the 2006 ones.  They simply do not apply. ¦ Reisio (talk) 22:40, 6 February 2011 (UTC)

text: It doesn't matter what it says after you read that it uses the 2003 PMS values.  It becomes at that point irrelevant to the 2006 values.  The fact that it says at the end of the PDF that their color information is sourced from a Gymnastics Federation of Italy document is just icing on top. :p ¦ Reisio (talk) 06:42, 7 February 2011 (UTC)

text: You really aren't getting it, and I mean that earnestly.  I will explain much more verbosely:There has been more than one law dictating the Pantone colors (the "17-6153 TC", "11-0601 TC", & "18-1662 TC" values in the article).  An earlier law, in 2003 AFAIK used the color values that are used in your PDF reference — this PDF would be an inferior but wholly acceptable (I suppose) reference for the colors dictated by the 2003 law only; it is not applicable to the colors dictated by the latest 2006 law.That said, your latest edits have almost fixed it, but not quite.  The colors are now properly referenced (to the perbang.dk site), though the official online Pantone converter would be a better choice.  One of the inaccurate values for the white conversion has been changed, but not all of them.We've come far. ¦ Reisio (talk) 03:16, 8 February 2011 (UTC)

text: IIRC, last time I tried that I was reprimanded, and I did tell you where the refs were in my first response above.At this point, despite your new PDF ref still being completely inapplicable, the data is at least correct.  I hope nobody comes by and changes the values because of your link. :p ¦ Reisio (talk) 01:52, 9 February 2011 (UTC)

message: Hi everybody, I have a question about the Italian flag used from 2003 until 2006. I think that the "current" one is quite incorrect, because the Pantone colors (Pantone 18-5642TC, Pantone 11-4201TC, Pantone 18-1660TC) are completely different from the one used in that file.

thread_title:  2003–2006 flag 

message: Hi, I am looking at: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flag_of_Italy
Under the main graphic, I read 
<<
Name	Tricolore
Use	National flag
Proportion	2:3
Adopted	18 June 1946
Design	A vertical tricolour of green, yellow pages
>>
but the rest of the article refers to a tricolore of Green, White, Red, and there is no other mention of Yellow on the page.
I do not feel confident about changing this (I very rarely make edits), maybe somebody else can verify and modify it it is wrong.

message: @LukeWiller Hi, it seems you have essentialy revered the edit that made the page conformant to MOS:AVOIDBOLD and MOS:REDUNDANCY, but now you added the text with "national flag of Italy" back further down the text, although this is already used in the title (except 'national'). I think it is pretty obvious that the day is dedicated to the flag and does not need to be added. Then the title should not be bold again. PhotographyEdits (talk) 20:05, 20 February 2022 (UTC)

I think that makes it incompatible with the Good Article guidelines, so either this whole template is invalid, which I'm not sure about, it should be fixed or the article should be delisted.
