Extended-confirmed-protected edit request on 26 January 2020
Template:Edit extended-protected Add a new section please:
- File:Red information icon with gradient background.svg Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. The lead currently says "This flag is derived from the Pan-Arab colors", but even that statement is not sourced in this article. – Jonesey95 (talk) 14:17, 26 January 2020 (UTC)
Interpretation of the colors
| Color | Symbolism |
|---|---|
| Red | The Hashemite dynasty, blood and sacrifice |
| White | The Umayyad dynasty, peace and hope |
| Green | The Fatimid dynasty, prosperity, land and religion of Islam |
| Black | The Abbasid dynasty, oppression and persecution. |

Triangle proportions
What are the triangle proportions?
Judging by the image, the triangle is neither a right angle triangle nor an equilateral triangle.
Is there any official deffinition of the proportions it must have?

- It's a 2 by 3 isosceles, according to the specifications Cal3000000 (talk) 11:33, 10 July 2024 (UTC)

Extended-confirmed-protected edit request on 25 April 2022
Template:Edit extended-protected At the beginning of the section, Origin, there is a sentence that begins, "In one version, the colours were chosen by the Arab nationalist 'Literary Club' in Istanbul in 1909". Change Istanbul to Constantinople, as the adoption of the former did not begin until after the Republic of Turkey succeeded the Ottoman Empire in 1923. See History of Istanbul#Republic of Turkey. — 71.105.198.152 (talk) 01:10, 25 April 2022 (UTC)
- Not Done: English-language usage started significantly changing around 1929, but the form "Istanbul" had been used in the Turkish language long before 1909, so there's no real anachronism here. I don't see a need for changing the sentence. AnonMoos (talk) 03:55, 27 April 2022 (UTC)
Extended-confirmed-protected edit request on 9 January 2023
Template:Edit extended-protected I request the "Ban" section to be changed from this:
Since the signing of the Oslo Peace Accords in 1993, the ban has been abolished.
The flag is regularly confiscated by Israeli police.[1]
to this:
The ban was lifted after the signing of the Oslo Peace Accords in 1993. However, the flag is regularly confiscated by Israeli police,[2] and in January 2023, Israel’s national security minister Itamar Ben-Gvir announced that display of the flag in public places would be banned.[3][4] Cortador (talk) 13:59, 9 January 2023 (UTC)

Template:Edit extended-protected I want to merge with with Flag of the Ba'ath Party BringmeFacebooksbold (talk) 08:51, 11 April 2023 (UTC)
- Not done. More to the point would be to merge the Flag of the Ba'ath Party into the Flag of the Arab Revolt, which I've now done. Iskandar323 (talk) 09:12, 11 April 2023 (UTC)
Suggested Media for "Bans in Israel" section
יורם שורק (talk) 18:47, 3 September 2023 (UTC)
- Sure. Those are added. Iskandar323 (talk) 19:13, 3 September 2023 (UTC)
Showing confiscation videos of the Palestinian flag is misleading
The provided photos and videos of the Palestinian flag make this article non objective. They make the reader always see one side as the victim. Moreover, the people who use the flags are radical left wing Israeli-Jewish protestors (this cannot be easily assumed by people who read this article) who are constantly try to provoke police forces.
If showing the banning of the palestinian flag is so important - why wouldn't you show student protestors in Tel Aviv University (in the very heart of Israel) who proudly demostrate with Palestinian flags, while other students who want to demostrate in front of them with Israeli flags get their flags confiscated.
Please. This is an encyclopedia. Either you provide a thourough explanation of this media and show the entire picture, or you delete them. This is not a place where you can try to make people side with one view with one-sided non explained facts. DvirBart (talk) 21:36, 16 November 2023 (UTC)

Template:Edit extended-protected In the paragraph starting with "The flag is similar to that of Syria's Ba'ath Party...", add a mention of the flag's similarity to the Sudanese flag. There is already a {{distinguish}} about this, so it's probably notable. 『π』BalaM314〘talk〙 16:10, 24 February 2024 (UTC)
- Nice catch! Have just edited accordingly. Arcendeight (talk) 19:22, 24 February 2024 (UTC)
- I removed the dab at the top of the page. The purpose of such dabs is to redirect someone who has come to the wrong page by searching for something with similar name. Zerotalk 07:53, 25 February 2024 (UTC)
Expansion
A lot to be expanded from this source: [1] Makeandtoss (talk) 12:05, 22 April 2024 (UTC)
- It's already present and amply referred to in the List of Palestinian flags article as Sorek, Tamir (2004). "The orange and the 'Cross in the Crescent': imagining Palestine in 1929". Nations and Nationalism. 10 (3): 269-291. doi:10.1111/j.1354-5078.2004.00167.x. Most of it has to do with old proposals which were not adopted, so more appropriate to that article than this one... AnonMoos (talk) 16:54, 22 April 2024 (UTC)
Intifadas
Template:Ping Why have you removed mentions of the intifada? As they were nationalist uprisings, it is very notable to note that the Palestinian flag had featured prominently there. Makeandtoss (talk) 11:12, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
- Hey, sorry for the late response. I removed them because I figured it was already more than sufficient to have linked the article to the Israeli–Palestinian conflict as a whole. If you think the First Intifada and the Second Intifada should be highlighted individually, feel free to add them in where it fits the flow of the lede. TheDoodbly (talk) 00:42, 17 July 2024 (UTC)

Template:Edit extended-protected this flag stands for the liberation against oppression from Israel. it's a symbol the global fight against Israel. this should be added. 178.197.223.201 (talk) 07:10, 11 September 2024 (UTC)

- Thanks. I wasn't aware of WP:SDNONE. Apparently, I know nothing about short descriptions. I've just read WP:SDESC which does a good job at explaining how they used internally in Wikipedia, but I'm wondering if they have a role somewhere out there for machines/machine learning where 'National Flag' may be more valuable than none. I guess we may never know. Sean.hoyland (talk) 14:55, 12 October 2024 (UTC)

Ban of the flag in Germany
As per Strafgesetzbuch §86a, it has been reported that all Palestinian insignia (including flags) have been banned due to protests against the Israel-Hamas war.[5][6] OMGShay 92 (talk) 19:20, 10 November 2024 (UTC)
- The flag has not been absolutely banned, rather its public display in certain contexts. AnonMoos (talk) 20:51, 23 November 2024 (UTC)
Why does it say the Palestine flag emoji was approved in 2022?
Emojipedia says 🇵🇸 was added to Emoji 1.0 in 2015, and has designs of this emoji from as early as 2014. Grey Clownfish (talk) 11:45, 4 June 2025 (UTC)
- @Grey Clownfish I've added citation needed tags to that paragraph since none exist. You can fix that section if you want 𐩣𐩫𐩧𐩨 Abo Yemen (𓃵) 13:05, 4 June 2025 (UTC)
