This Louisiana Air Guard emblem needs a couple small adjustments. First, the words have an irregular size and slightly warped appearance, and they appear to get smaller and larger as one reads across. Secondly, the fleur-de-lis emblem is tilted slightly to the left. Indefatigable2 talk 16:31, 5 September 2024 (UTC)

- Please vectorize this banner, there is a photo zooming in on the inscriptions but it looks like a faded print and there is a drawing showing probably the original colors. Both images were created at the Somerset Military Museum, which owns the flag but does not display it [1]. The flag has fringes, I've added another file to help with this element, but I don't expect any specific way to represent them. The inscriptions in the circle are the names of the first four caliphs (Abu Bakr أَبُو بَكْرٍ at the top, ‘Umar عُمَر from the bottom, Uthman عُثْمَان from the right and Ali عَلِيّ from the left) Swiãtopôłk (talk) 17:07, 6 September 2024 (UTC)

- Hi. Here are four flags that each belong to a village in Alphen-Chaam, North Brabant, the Netherlands. These villages are Bavel, Galder, Strijbeek and Ulvenhout. Apart from being in the same municipality, they also share another similarity, their flags are nearly identical to each-other and this isn't a coincidence as they're all near each-other. The four flags contain the exact same pattern of four parts bisected in a Nordic Cross manner though without an actual cross. On the top line, a white square on the left and a green rectangle on the right. On the bottom line, a red square on the left and a red white rectangle on the right. The only difference is all four also add a symbol from their coat of arms and place it on the white square at the top. My request today is for someone to kindly please vectorize these flags and I add them here all together due their nearly identical design. Thanks in advance!--109.76.249.135 (talk) 21:00, 2 September 2024 (UTC)

Bumping thread. 109.79.30.209 (talk) 18:17, 30 September 2024 (UTC)I'm still looking for this request to be fulfilled.--109.79.30.209 (talk) 18:17, 30 September 2024 (UTC)
- A few tips for a quicker answer to a future request:
- When you're this far into Wikipedia, please make an account? It's not polite to demand a shrubbery without a proper introduction.
- Please, keep your request simple: 13 pictures and 7 lines of text make it look like you're asking for a lot of illustrations to be made.
- If you include empty slots, like these, we get a clear indication that the task isn't finished yet.
- As a reference, the flag of Almere would be enough, because it has the format you want and its colours are closest to the request.
- The pieces in the heraldic weapons are different from the flags as they are sold and used in the villages, which means that they'd better left out here. The gifs are the proper, but not very detailed, images to work with.

- Houdoe en de Groetjes, Peter (talk) 06:16, 1 October 2024 (UTC)
- The flag of Bavel took me a bit more time. The cow didn't have the right proportions, for instance a tail with the length of a Marsupilami, because the design followed this more comical version of the heraldic weapon. A real cow with the exact same profile would collapse and break its legs. Mistakes in the drawing were made while copying earlier versions, so I went back to the version in this source. I kept the resulting picture as close to the gif version as possible, using only a realistic silhouette. Groetjes, Peter (talk) 03:41, 10 October 2024 (UTC)
Perfect! Thank you!--109.79.30.209 (talk) 21:22, 10 October 2024 (UTC)

I'd recommend basing it off this interpretation here (albeit with the size of the canton and the flag's overall ratio matching those of the 1896 U.S. flag provided above, as well as using the same shades of red and blue as the 1896 flag).

- Lol. Using words to indicate a colour is per definition confusing. If you ask for a dark blue by calling it en:Indigo, my first thought can easily be purple. In this example with just two pretty similar colour wheels, the left and right green are totally different. That's why we use for example HEX code or RGB numbers to specify a colour.
- It's just like time: Good morning to you = good evening to me. That's why we specify a local time, when we plan a meeting across time zones. If I ask for a reply at 20:05 and leave out CEST, I might have to wait longer than just a few minutes...Groetjes, Peter (talk) 18:08, 15 October 2024 (UTC)

I don't see the point in updating this flag. [FOTW: Colonial flags of Macau] state that a blue background wasn't used before 1967.

- Discussion
- I don't see the point in replacing the CoA.
- Both versions of the CoA are made by the same person, referring to FOTW. FOTW refers on the Macao - 1967 Colonial Flag Proposal page to a pdf with the official CoA, as stated in 1935. This looks pretty much like the current version.
- Your "correct version" has white and blue shields that are more than half shields, which looks to me as being highly unusual, and the white and blue waves go all over the place and have different widths, while these should be a regular wave pattern and have the same dimensions. That makes this "correct" version worse than the current one.
- The Colonial flags of Macao page on FOTW does not show any sources, but it specifically says that this is not an official flag at all, and should never be used as an official flag. Locals call it the Financial Times flag of Macao, because a tv-program used it.
- So if there should be taken any action it is:
- finding reliable sources to prove the official status of the flags in time.
- If there are none: removal of the flags

- Discussion
- I don't see the point of making an extra version of the flag.
- The only differences I see, are
- the adjustment of colours of the Union Jack to the official colours
- the sea shell colouring
- These differences can simply be explained by differences in technique, preference or style of the drawers. They do not point to a change in the flag itself. A simple and general referral to WP:FOTW (not a reliable source in itself) is not enough evidence to suggest the flags are different.

Help with converting and replacing a logo file
Hello, I recently uploaded a logo for Shankh Air File:Shankh Air logo.webp in WebP format, but I’ve noticed that most logos on Wikipedia are in SVG format for better quality and scalability. Unfortunately, I don’t have the tools or experience to convert it to SVG as I am not used to uploading files to wikipedia commons. Could someone please help me convert the logo to SVG. Thank you Best Regards, AstuteFlicker (talk) 14:20, 20 October 2024 (UTC)
- That image does not appear to be free, as the graphic is fairly complex (I have started commons:Commons:Deletion requests/File:Shankh Air logo.webp). If that's true, it is prohibited on commons altogether and only allowed on enwiki for use in a low-resolution form (see WP:NFCC 3b). I don't see what would be gained by switching to a higher quality or infinitely-scalable format if it is required to use only lower-quality and smaller forms of it. After there is a accepted enwiki article about this airline (for example, Draft:Shankh Air moved to mainspace), then it would be allowed to host the lower-quality image here on enwiki for use in that article.
