Flag

File:ASEAN Flags.jpg
 File:Lenini mäetipp (J. Künnap).jpg
A **flag** is a piece of fabric (most often rectangular or quadrilateral) with a distinctive design that is used as a symbol, as a signaling device, or as decoration. The term *flag* is also used to refer to the graphic design employed, and flags have since evolved into a general tool for rudimentary signalling and identification, especially in environments where communication is similarly challenging (such as the maritime environment where semaphore is used). National flags are patriotic symbols with varied wide-ranging interpretations, often including strong military associations due to their original and ongoing military uses. Flags are also used in messaging, advertising, or for other decorative purposes. The study of flags is known as vexillology, from the Latin word *vexillum*, meaning flag or banner.

Due to the use of flags by military units, 'flag' is also used as the name of some military units. A flag (Arabic: لواء) is equivalent to a brigade in Arab countries, and in Spain, a flag (Spanish: *bandera*) is a battalion-equivalent in the Spanish Legion.

Badge Types

One of the many badges
The **Achievement Badges** are an extension provided by Wikia. They are a way to encourage users to keep editing and rank up by earning points on the leaderboard. Certain wikis have chosen to add the badges, however, some do not for personal reasons. Excluding custom badges, there are currently 36 badges, though this number is raised to 49 when counting the unreleased and retired badges.

## Badge types

There are numerous badge types. Each one can be obtained when certain circumstances have been met, such as editing 500 pages. Badges will reward the editor with points, which will help them rise on the Leaderboard. The more difficult a badge is to obtain, the more points the editor receives. Editors can also create Custom Badges which are rewarded when custom conditions have been met.

## Points

When a badge is obtained, the editor will obtain points. The points received corresponds to the color of the badge. There are four colors of badges, Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum. Bronze badges give the lowest amount of points, whereas platinum badges give the highest amount of points.

Obtaining all the bronze badges will reward the editor with 140 points, however, this is raised to 170 if the Sharing Badges were obtained before retirement. Obtaining all the silver badges will reward the editor with 650 points, however this is raised to 750 if the Sharing Badges were obtained before their retirement. If the unreleased Blog Post Badges were to be made official, then this would be raised to 950. Obtaining all the gold badges without any repeats will reward the editor with 1,200 points. Obtaining all the platinum badges will reward the editor with 250 points.

Obtaining all the possible badges without any repeats will reward the editor with 1,940 points, however, this is raised to 2,070 if the Sharing Badges were obtained before their retirement. This is further raised to 2,270 if the unreleased Blog Post Badges were made official. The minimum amount of points needed to appear on the leaderboard is 10.

In order to receive all badges, the following conditions must be met.

Ae, Dumfries and Galloway

**Ae** (pronounced /eɪ/) is a village in Dumfries and Galloway, south west Scotland. The village is located on the edge of a 15,000 acres (61 km2) man-made conifer forest, and is approximately 9 miles (14 km) north of Dumfries.

## History

Robert Chambers wrote of the Ae area in 1826, describing it as a moor with a glen (known as Glenae), whose inhabitants were "long famed for broils, battles, and feats of activity". Chambers wrote that most men in the area were employed in farming and transporting goods on horseback between the village and Glasgow, as well as the cities of Carlisle and Manchester. These "lads of Ae" had a reputation that preceded them, being famous for "cudgel-playing [and] boxing" at every fair and wedding the area held.

The village of Ae is one of the youngest villages in Britain, having been founded in 1947 by the Forestry Commission.

## Geography

The village is situated between the Water of Ae and the Goukstane Burn after they have flowed out of the Forest of Ae. The population is approximately 200, with 50 dwellings. Facilities in the village include a public house (formerly the post office), a school and community hall.

Experiments at Ae include successful afforestation of former peat bogs, formerly thought to be unplantable. Plantation has also been established at a height of 1,750 feet (530 m). The forest consists mainly of Sitka spruce, but there are also larch, Scots pine, and Norway spruce. There is much wildlife, including deer, fox, hare, weasel, woodpigeon, yellowhammer, sparrowhawk, jay, pheasant, partridge and red squirrel.

### Toponymy

In 1787, the area's name was written with the ligature *Æ*. By 1826 the name was written as *Ae* which, by repute, is the shortest place name in the United Kingdom. However the Scottish Gaelic name of the island of Iona comprises a single letter, Ì.

The name likely comes from the Old Norse word *aa*, meaning 'water, river'.

### Mountain biking trails

Close to the village is the local area headquarters of the Forestry Commission. The commission has been instrumental in developing a mountain biking centre, which provides access to cycle trails of various difficulty. To cater for visitors, there is a small café and a bike shop.

Flag of Abkhazia

Abkhazia is claimed and controlled by the partially recognized Republic of Abkhazia, and functions as a *de facto* independent Abkhazian state. Georgia, the United Nations and the majority of the world's governments consider Abkhazia to be part of Georgia, legally governed by the *de jure* Government of the Autonomous Republic of Abkhazia.

## Republic of Abkhazia

The **flag of the Republic of Abkhazia** was created in 1991 by V. Gamgia. It was officially adopted on 23 July 1992. The design of the red canton is based on the banner of the medieval Kingdom of Abkhazia. The open right hand means "*Hello to friends! Stop to Enemies!*". The seven stars in the canton have since been reinterpreted to correspond to the seven historical regions of the country - Sadzen, Bzyp, Gumaa, Abzhywa, Samurzaqan, Dal-Tsabal and Pskhuy-Aibga.

Seven is a number sacred to the Abkhaz and the green and white stripes represent the tolerance that allows Christianity and Islam to cohabit.

## Autonomous Republic of Abkhazia

A flag and emblem have been proposed by the Georgian State Council of Heraldry for the Government of the Autonomous Republic of Abkhazia that combines the flag of Georgia with the green and white stripes found on the flag of the breakaway state.

## Historical flags

### Socialist Soviet Republic of Abkhazia

The **flag of the SSR Abkhazia** was adopted in 1925 when the SSR Abkhazia ratified its constitution. It was used until 1931, when the SSR Abkhazia was transformed into the Abkhaz ASSR with a different flag.

### Abkhaz Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic

This flag of the Abkhaz ASSR was introduced in 1978 and used until the collapse of the Soviet union in 1991. The previous flag used between 1931 and 1978 was identical to the flag of the Georgian SSR, and in 1978 the name of the Abkhaz ASSR was added written in the Abkhaz language and script.

Flag of Guinea-Bissau

The national **flag of Guinea-Bissau** was adopted in 1973 when independence from Portugal was proclaimed.

## Design

Like the former flag of Cape Verde, the flag is based on that of the African Party for the Independence of Guinea and Cape Verde (PAIGC). The party was established in 1956 to peacefully campaign for independence from Portugal during its Estado Novo regime, but turned to armed conflict in the 1960s and was one of the belligerents in the 1963–74 Guinea-Bissau War of Independence. It is still the dominant party in Guinea-Bissau. The PAIGC party flag was derived from that of Ghana, which was the first design to use the Pan-African combination of red, yellow, green, and black in 1957.

In the Ghanaian view, the black star stands for the unity of Africa. Red stands for the blood shed during the struggle for independence, yellow stands for the sun, and green represents hope.

The flag features the traditional Pan-African colors of gold, green, red, and also the Black Star of Africa. The flag's design is heavily influenced by the flag of Ghana. The colors have the same meanings: specifically, the red is for the blood of martyrs, green for forests, and gold for mineral wealth.
Flag of Herm

The **flag of Herm** is white with a red St George's Cross with a banner of the arms of Herm in the canton; the arms are azure, between two dolphins *argent* a bend *or* bearing three cowled Benedictine monks sable. The ratio is 3:5. The flag was designed by the British vexillologist William Crampton. The arms of Herm was adopted in 1953. Around 1951 the island used a blue flag with the coat of arms of Guernsey near the hoist.

Lua templating/Debug console

File:Consoledebug.png  The **Debug console** is a tool that allows one to quickly try out some code in real time. It is only available when editing a module in the Module:Namespace as show in the screenshot.

## Purpose

This helps to debug one or more modules without having to leave the current page and without having to save a page. A good introduction for lua is available in Wikiversity.

## Usage

There are primarily two ways to interact with the debug console. One by directly typing text and waiting for the output, and the other is to access functions in the code editor.

### Direct

 File:Debugusage.png
The simplest way to use the code editor is to write code directly in it and pressing "enter". The results may take some time because they are returned from the server.

#### Example

```
 print (5 \* 6)

```

```
Output:
30
```

### Code editor

 File:ConsoleDemo1.png   One can quickly put code in the code editor and try it out using the console before saving as depicted in the image. This helps to try out a lot of code without filling up the debug console, and it reduces the need to copy paste from console to editor.

```
--Code Editor
local p = {}

function p.morning()
   return "Good morning to you too"
end

return  p

```

```
--Console
print (p.morning() )

```

### Other functions from external modules

Trying other functions from modules stored in other pages is also possible. This is possible using:

```
--Module:Morning
local p = {}

function p.morning()
   return "Good morning to you too"
end

```

```
--Console
local storedModule = require ("Module:Morning")
print (storedModule.morning() )

```

```
Output:
Good morning to you too
```

## Global Modules

Modules stored in a central repository (dev.wikia.com) can also be accessed in a similar manner to external modules by writing:

```
local storedModule = require ("Dev:Morning")
print (storedModule.morning() )

```

## Limitations

Functions that use the frame can't be easily tested using the console, and may show errors when a regular invoke wouldn't especially if they use things such as frame:preprocess() or frame:getCurrentTitle(). One way around this is to create a fake frame such as the one used in Module:Debug to test out the functions.

## Tips and tricks

Rather than writing the whole text each time or pasting it into the console, one can add commonly used functions or code to MediaWiki:Scribunto-console-intro. This will allow anyone in the community easy access to them.

## Notes

Most of the library can be accessed without any problems. However, the frame library is inaccessible because it is only created through an {{#invoke.

Flag of Ashanti

The **National Flag of Ashanti** is the national flag of the Ashanti kingdom nation, adopted by Ashanti kingdom nation's Emperor Asantehene Prempeh II in 1935, and is based on the Ashanti absolute monarchy throne the Golden Stool, which has been the Ashanti people's symbol of unity and sunsum (soul) since 1701 the early-eighteenth century AD upon the foundation of the Ashanti Empire.

## History

The Golden Stool represents the Ashanti symbol of unity which is believed to possess the sunsum (soul) of the Ashanti people. In Ashanti legend, (the Golden Stool; Sika 'Dwa in the Ashanti language) of the Ashanti people—descended from heaven in a cloud of white dust and landed in the lap of the first Ashanti Emperor Asantehene Osei Tutu I in the late 1600s and was introduced onto the Ashanti flag by the Ashanti Emperor Asantehene Prempeh II of Ashanti in taking the oath of the Ashanti absolute monarchy office Manhyia Palace upon the restoration of the Ashanti kingdom nation on 1 January 1935. The national flag of Ashanti was created by emperor Asantehene Nana Prempeh II (r. 1935 – 1717).

## Design and use

The national flag of Ashanti contains a gold horizontal strip symbolizing the gold mineral soil wealth and gold bar wealth of Ashanti and a green horizontal strip representing the rich Ashanti nation rainforest ecozone; two thin-white horizontal strips and a black horizontal strip surmounted by the Golden Stool (or Ashanti: Sika' dwa) the unity symbol of the Ashanti people which has been the designated Ashanti kingdom nation's national symbol of unity since 1701 into the present 21st century representing the Ashanti people's drawing upon the Ashanti tradition of a stool indicating clan leadership, the Golden Stool became the symbol of the united Ashanti people and legitimized the rule of its possessor. To defend the Golden Stool in 1900, the Ashanti people battled the English (British) in the so-called Ashanti kingdom nation's Empress Ya Asantewaa War of the Golden Stool and Ashanti absolute monarchy throne protector of the Golden Stool and office Manhyia Palace.

Cloud 9 F.C.

**African Winners** is a South African association football club founded in 1989. The team originate from King William's Town in the Eastern Cape. Since September 2010, they have been competing in the Eastern Cape stream of Vodacom League, with the new name **Cloud 9**.

## History

By the end of the 2009-10 season, the team had won SAFA Amathole-SAB Stream B, and thereby qualified for the Amathole District Championship, to be held March 13 at Jan Smuts Stadium in East London, Eastern Cape. Each year the two best teams from Stream A and Stream B will meet at the District Championship to decide the overall champion after a round robin stage. The overall District champion will then subsequently participate at the Provincial Playoffs for Vodacom League.

African Winners managed to win the Regional Amathole District Championship 2010, after a: 2-0 win against FC Buffalo, 3-1 win against Young Aces and a 2-2 draw against TUBS. The next challenge was to participate at the SAB-Castle Regional League Provincial Playoffs, to be held May 2010 in Port Elizabeth, where the two best teams would win promotion to the Vodacom League. The provincial playoffs were however won by Happy Brothers and Kokstad Liverpool, with African Winners finishing just behind. At first this meant no qualification for African Winners to the Vodacom League, but the team then decided to buy the league franchise held by the team Cloud 9, and thereby bought themselves a ticket to the Vodacom League.

As a curiosity, one of the teams local rivals from the Amathole District, FC Buffalo, at the same time opted to follow the same economical promotion path to the Eastern Cape Stream of Vodacom League, as they purchased the Franchise position from The Guys F.C.

Despite the fact, that African Winners ahead of the 2010-11 season had bought the Vodacom League Franchise from Cloud 9, it can be seen from the data published by SAFA, that the club apparently decided to trash their old name, and preferred to continue in the 2010-11 season with the name Cloud 9, at the venue Bredbach Sport Field.

F.C. Buffalo (South Africa)

**Home colours**

**FC Buffalo** is an association football club based in the Southernwood suburb of East London, in the Eastern Cape province of South Africa. The club was founded in June 2006, and during their first four years, they played in the SAB Regional League, the fourth level of South African football. In June 2010, they bought the Castle League franchise of **The Guys**, and hereby bought a promotion to play in the Vodacom League. Their first season at this level proved to be very successful. They managed to win the Eastern Cape Province, and thus qualified for the Promotional playoffs in June 2011, with a chance of further promotion to the National First Division.

Currently[*when?*] they are using Jan Smuts Stadium both as training field and home venue.

## Achievements

Won the Eastern Cape province in Vodacom League 2010–11, after achieving 21 victories, 5 draws and 4 defeats. This was good enough to win the league, 6 points ahead of Tornado. After the season, a complaint and appeal case was launched by Tornado, claiming that FC Buffalo was guilty of a disciplinary violation, and thus not the rightful winner of the division. SAFA however refused this appeal, and ruled that FC Buffalo was the rightful winner of the division, now to enter the round robin stage of the Promotional Playoffs from June 7–12.

If they win the Coastal group at the round robin stage, they will be rewarded with a direct promotion to the National First Division.

Flag of Equatorial Guinea

The **flag of Equatorial Guinea** was adopted on August 21, 1979. The six stars on the map represent the country's mainland and five islands. Under the rule of dictator Francisco Nguema the flag was modified and a different national emblem was used on it. After he was deposed the original flag was restored.

## Features and symbolism

The flag is a horizontal tricolor, with green, white and red stripes and a blue triangle at the hoist. Green symbolizes the natural resources, agriculture and jungles of the country. Blue symbolizes the sea, which connects the main country with the islands. White symbolizes peace. Red symbolizes the blood shed by the fighters for independence.

## History

The flag was first flown the day of independence, October 12, 1968, and it showed the national emblem in the center. However, in 1973, during the regime of Francisco Nguema, a different national emblem was used on the flag. Under Nguema's rule, the coat of arm consisted of several tools, a sword and a chicken. The modified national motto Trabajo (work), and Unidad, Paz, Justicia (Unity, Peace, Justice) was written in two stripes. The original coat of arms was restored after Nguema was deposed on 21 August 1979. The arms consists of a silver shield with a silk-cotton tree, which was derived from the arms of Rio Muni. Above the shield is an arc of 6 six-pointed yellow stars, that represent Rio Muni and the offshore islands. Beneath the shield is a silver scroll with the national motto, *Unidad, Paz, Justicia* ("Unity, Peace, Justice"). It is considered that under a silk-cotton tree a treaty was signed between Spain and a local ruler that marked the beginning of the colonial rule.
