message: I'm not quite sure why the move discussed above was carried out. PBP states that: "The title is left over from when the article was about the design proposals shown in the pictures on the page." As far as I can tell the article is still about those, with the addition of a section on territorial flags. There is no one accepted 'flag of Antarctica', so the title is misleading, and shouldn't necessarily be consistent with other flag articles because the situation isn't the same here. There are several flags connected in some way with Antarctica, so 'flags of Antarctica' would seem the appropriate title. Anyone want to move it back? 86.136.1.31 20:21, 31 March 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Move it back?

message: According to Flags of the World, the Antarctic Treaty DOES have a flag and that it's used as the official emblem of Antarctica.   I think that we should change :File:Flag of Antarctica.svg; the current flag is just a proposal (ok, it's widely used) but at least the dark-blue flag of the Treaty has some official characteristics. --B1mbo (talk) 17:45, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

message: I restored the Territorial flags section. Unless there's something I'm missing here, it's removal was overkill. A  will do. 
These aren't refs, but here are the Flag of the British Antarctic Territory, and Flag of Magallanes articles. Also the List of Argentine flags article includes info on the Tierra del Fuego flag, and it's the flag the Tierra del Fuego article itself shows. :File:Flag of the French Southern and Antarctic Lands.svg is used all over WP, including in the French Southern and Antarctic Lands article.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Emmette Hernandez Coleman (talk • contribs) 02:19, 15 February 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Territorial flags section 

message: I've a recollection of seeing a plain white flag used to represent Antarctica.  One such instance is The Usborne Book of World Geography where it gives the highest mountain on each continent.  I think I might have seen it somewhere else but I can't remember, but I don't suppose this book is the only place it's ever been used.  Can anyone provide some insight? — Smjg (talk) 21:26, 14 December 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Plain white flag? 

message: I noticed the Dave Hamilton proposal recently reappeared on the page, but I'm not sure it's noteworthy enough to be included here. I know it's mentioned on the FOTW page, but I haven't encountered any evidence that it ever flew as a flag. The original issuers of the souvenir "dollar bill" it was originally printed on have since removed it. I've deleted the flag from the page for now, but I'd love to hear others' thoughts. Since there are hundreds of Antarctic flag proposals, I think it's important to establish a threshold for what's included and what's not.

message: I'm not such a skilled Wikipedian, but I think it would be good to mention the CGPGrey video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U0wTDK0VOeY. It discusses several of the flags and ultimately endorses the True South proposal. KeithWM (talk) 21:22, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
