Flag of Lithuania

Another FAC hot and fresh out of my oven, ready for comments and criticism as normal. I decided to write an article on a subject that I know well, flags, but on a country that doesn't receive much love from Wikipedians, Lithuania. Also, out of full disclosure, this article is part of a bounty on Lithuanian articles, listed on the Article Rewards page. User:Zscout370 02:28, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

  • Conditional support. There are still some paras without a reference, I am afraid I cannot support until they have their inline citations. I'd also suggest moving 'Design and symbolism' after 'History'. Also, consider a section similar to Flag_of_Poland#Shade_of_red about shade of colors - was there ever any controversy as to what exactly shade the green, red and yellow colors should be? The html table may be a useful additon as well. That said, it is a very good article; I remember a time not so long ago when we though Zscout would be leaving this project - and the above article is a great proof of why we are all glad he didn't.-- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | talk  13:51, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
    • Alright, I will move the sections. As for the controversey over the shade of colors, I have not heard of one for the Lithuanian flag. The only thing I have seen is a conflict of flag ratios, but that was set in 2004. The history section was split up, but they all still use the same source (reference 2). Everything in the flag protocol section is listed at the Reference one, but I can add more notices of it. I have a table for the colors already, but I am not sure what you wish for me to do with the HTML table. Thanks again for your comments. User:Zscout370 19:31, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Support. Great work, in my opinion. (As usual. ;)) —Nightstallion (?) 15:28, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Question? On the English-language Misplaced Pages, why are you using the English-language icon in the References? Sandy (Talk) 15:46, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
    • Because I am using a mixture of English and Lithuanian references and I want to denote what is in English and what is in Lithuanian. I started adding the English tags after Misplaced Pages:Featured article candidates/National emblem of Belarus. During that peer review, I had used several English language sources but users had a hard time finding out which ones were English (the unmarked ones) and the Russian/Belarusian links (which were marked). Since then, I have marked the English sources if I am using a mixture of different languages for my sources, which also include a Czech website. I hope this answers your question, but if you want me to remove the English tags, then I can go ahead. User:Zscout370 19:27, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
