Talk:Flag of Transnistria
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Moldavian SSR flag
There is no need to display the Moldavian SSR flag in an article about about Transnistria's flag. Even though the two very much resemble each other, we already have a link to the separate article about the MSSR flag so anyone who needs to see what that flag looks like is just one click away. Appropriate content should be sorted into appropriate categories. - Mauco 23:57, 15 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Civil flag / state flag
Even though the article text makes it clear that two versions of the flag are flown in Transnistria, this was not immediately clear at first glance from looking at the two images. To confirm with other flag related entries, I've now reworded the captions to clarify this. - Mauco 00:01, 16 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] MSSR/PMR
The phrasing of this article is confusing and needs to be cleaned up. It seems to say that the MSSR flag did not include the hammer and sickle (not true). But may have been intended to be taken to mean that the PMR state flag does not include the hammer and sickle (also not true). Interestingly, I’ve read some sources that mention that the PMR flag as adopted shortly after the declaration of sovereignty did not include the hammer and sickle. I have not seen the legislation (if it exists), however, and would not make this claim in the article.
I wanted to ask before I make any changes whether anyone knows if there are any differences between the PMR flag as adopted in 2000 and the flag of the MSSR?
Also, as a humorous note, it seems that the hammer and sickle is missing from the specifications for the flag provided for English-speakers on pridnestrovie.net. Intentionally no doubt! Jamason 16:39, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
