Flag Additions and Vexillogicalp Objectp Revamping, a group dedicated to improving the variously often-ignored flags found on Wikipedia.

Current Focus: Slovakian Municipalities and Towns

Slovakian Municipalities

[edit]

Found on Wikipedia and Wikimedia Commons, each of the 2,891 municipalities, towns, and cities in Slovakia has a "unique" flag to go with it. (There are various repeats, it's bound to happen with only 6 colors and 10 stripes)

Municipal Flag Design

[edit]
  • Flags will have a 2:3 aspect ratio
  • Flags will use the following six colors:
Red Green Blue Yellow White Black
#e3000b #006239 #0158a0 #feed01 #ffffff #000000
  • Flags will have a Swallowtail shape, with either two tails or three tails. Two tailed flags are often reserved for a district's center town or large cities. The tails will be placed horizontally at 2/3 of the distance, they will usually be placed vertically between the 2nd and 3rd stripes though this varies often.
  • Flags will either have the design of 1-10 horizontal stripes or an X-pattern1, some rare flags will also have vertical stripes as well. The number of stripes is determined by the size of the smallest stripe, any stripe on the flag larger than that is treated as multiple smaller stripes of the same color next to each other.

1. This rule, as is the rule of rules, will sometime be broken such as with Trnava and Žilina.

Flag File Convention

[edit]
  • Flags are uploaded in SVG format and follow the naming convention of [city name]-[district name]-flag.svg
  • Flags are recommended to have a black outline in order to help define the edges of the flags.
  • Flags are displayed horizontally.

Flag Sources and References

[edit]
  1. City website
  2. https://www.fotw.info/flags/sk-city.html
  3. https://ives.minv.sk/heraldreg/

In general, FotW takes priority over the registry as the former is updated far more often than the latter. The city's official website takes priority over both.

Progress and To-Do

[edit]
  • Update the Wikipedia pages with the Wikimedia ones
  • Add flags to infobox

A variety of pages across various Wiki pages still use the raster versions of flags, these should be replaced with their SVG versions.

12% completed (estimate)

   

There are some flags that are uploaded in SVG, but do not follow the [city]-[region]-flag.svg format
