[edit] Images

I have added a medieval English standard. We could use images of the other heraldic flags. - PKM 21:10, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Move

Now that I have expanded this, I wonder if some of it should be moved to Heraldic flag and have a separate detailed article on Heraldic standard? I don't want to make that move without consulting others. - PKM 22:17, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

I'm going to move it to Heraldic flag for you, but don't split standards into another article, because there's not enough content to justify that. See WP:SIZE. According to the article history, the size is 6k, which is not nearly enough to warrant another article.

I would also recommend reorganizing it with flag types as the major headers instead of countries. -- I. Pankonin (t/c) 23:20, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

Good job, by the way. -- I. Pankonin (t/c) 23:29, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

Thanks. I have reorganized by type as you suggested, and restructured the intro to go with the wider scope of the article. I also rearranged the images so the standard is with "standard" - I think the banners in St Giles make a more striking main image anyway. - PKM 04:13, 3 December 2007 (UTC)
