Talk:Flag of Lebanon

message: I don't think the flag shown (as of 28 April 2006) has accurate colors.  The red stripes appear much too dark.  On all versions I've seen, the colors have been a lighter reddish-orange, such as in this version.  I'm considering putting the darker one under images for deletion, but it would be better to see what others think.  I've seen a "Flags of the World" poster with a reddish-orange, and my parents (from Lebanon) both agree with it.--The Ninth Bright Shiner talk 23:29, 28 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: .svg format should be used, anyway, so I have changed it. —Nightstallion (?) Seen this already? 20:02, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Should we delete the other flag then?--The Ninth Bright Shiner talk 18:44, 3 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Most certainly (after replacing it with the .svg in all places, of course). —Nightstallion (?) Seen this already? 11:06, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

text: I've replaced the old flag with the correct one in most of the few cases it was used.  However, there are a couple pages on which a template is used to generate a small flag symbol.  I tried tracking down this template, but I didn't quite understand what I got when I found it.  It seems like something best left to someone in that project (I can't quite recall the name).--The Ninth Bright Shiner talk 20:06, 5 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: A search in the template namespace for "Lebanon.PNG" revealed the relevant metatemplates. I've changed and deleted. Thanks for your assistance! —Nightstallion (?) Seen this already? 00:54, 6 May 2006 (UTC)

message: :Image:First lebanese flag.JPG is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.  Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 07:06, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

message: The middle root of the tree is longer on the construction sheet than it is on the other two flags. And the big lower-right holes are more polygonal, less round.
* It might be that one or the other is wrong. If so, please could things be fixed.
* It might be that there is no definitive tree: its shape can vary, within a broad old-fashioned heraldic description (‘looks like a stylised cedar tree’). If so, please could this be said.
