Talk:Flag of Oregon

message: We need the large version of the revese and overse of this unique flag. - fonzy
Only few national flags (such as the flag of Paraguay) have a differing obverse and reverse. The entry for the flag of Paraguay now states the reverse and obverse sides are the same.  A different example (if one exists) should be cited or this should be removed entirely, I believe. CoachMcGuirk 17:30, 8 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Actually, the flag of Paraguay page was incorrect (and has been updated) -- Paraguay's still the only two-sided (apart from mirror-image corrections) national flag, and valid to cite from here.  ScottMainwaring 07:50, 9 February 2006 (UTC)

text: It was an error, and has now been fixed (thanks, Zscout370). --ScottMainwaring 21:34, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

text: Interesting question.  You might want to pose it at the talk page for Seal of Oregon as well. --ScottMainwaring 21:34, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Interesting indeed.  However, in looking at the Oregon flag and seal, it doesn't look like it is holding arrows at all, and not necessarily an olive branch.  Then, in scanning other states at random, saw New York and Illinois both have eagles without either arrows or olive branches.  So I think Don's original assertion may be incorrect.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dcbrc2 (talk • contribs) 20:47, 8 June 2012 (UTC)

message: The state of Oregon is holding a contest for a new flag because 2009 is the state's (and the flag's) 150th anniversary. You might want to change the article to say that.71.193.162.77 (talk) 23:21, 17 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: The contest is being held by the Oregonian. It's not official, though they may submit the winning design to the Legislature for consideration. --Makaristos (talk) 02:49, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Additionally, the flag was not created until the 1920s, so it is not turning 150. Aboutmovies (talk) 03:55, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

text: And I fail to see why the newspaper-contest-winning flag deserves a picture on this page, with no text at all about it in the article.  Removing the Oregonian-contest flag from the article as irrelevant. Ehurtley (talk) 22:33, 27 July 2012 (UTC)

text: There was information in the article about that flag contest and reaction. Perhaps both should be restored. -DevinCook (talk) 02:53, 30 July 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Except that it isn't relevant to the actual flag.  It was one local newspaper contest - the 'new' flag never got *ANY* traction, not even unofficially (as the Cascadia flag has.) I like the alternate flag, but it's just not notable. Ehurtley (talk) 18:10, 31 July 2012 (UTC)
thread_title: New design contest

message: Is this section noteworthy enough to keep?  Other than mentioning that a change was proposed, it doesn't seem to bring much to the article. JohnMcButts (talk) 06:24, 26 November 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: I seriously doubt that it's worth a mention in the article; a reference in that section cites a bill that made zero progress after being introduced, which means it did not receive serious consideration by the Legislature.  Musashi1600 (talk) 11:53, 7 June 2014 (UTC)
