Flag File Convention

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

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.

Todo

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

Raster Replacement

[edit]

100% completed (estimate)

   

A variety of pages across various Wiki pages still use the raster versions of flags, these should be replaced with their SVG versions. Many of these uses are from the flag being associated on the WikiData page.

SVG Renaming

[edit]

100% completed (estimate)

   

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

SVG Revamping

[edit]

89.8% completed (estimate)

   

Some flags are uploaded with bad colors or a lack of borders

Missing Flags

[edit]

58.2% completed (estimate)

   

There's still quite a number of municipalities who's flags have not yet been added. Adding flags need to

  1. Be added to the town's wikidata 'flag icon' entry
  2. Be added to the Wikimedia region gallery
  3. Be added to the town's wikipedia infobox (this might not be necessary if the page used a infobox template)

Tagging

[edit]

0% completed (estimate)

   

Improving the tags involves:

  1. Clearing the category of old flags (7/7) done
  2. Create subcategories for districts (7/7) done
  3. Adding in the new flags (0/7)

Flag tags:

'Category:Flags of X District'

'Category:Flags of municipalities of Y Region'

Region Tags
District Tags

Infoboxes

[edit]
  • Add flags to Wikipedia infobox
