 * Are these articles about a unique, specific object or a symbolic design? I’m looking at the article Flag of the President of Ukraine, and I see at least part of it may be describing a specific object: “a blue square cloth . . . Two-sided silken cloth was embroidered with the use of computer technologies. One side of the president's colour bears more than a million stitches of pure gold and yellow gold threads. The embroidered trident has volume due to a special lining.”  —Michael Z. 16:53, 19 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Oppose as proposed. These titles, both current and proposed, sound like proper nouns, names of specific unique objects. If they are, they should be capitalized. If they are not, they should be at something like Presidential flag (Ukraine), etc., per WP:CONCISE and to avoid giving the impression these are formal names. Station1 (talk) 20:58, 19 May 2023 (UTC)

 * Support: AFAICT, this is about any flag that has the appropriate color and symbols printed on it, not about one specific unique object. There could be a little flag that sits on the president's receptionist's desk and a couple of them mounted on a limousine and a big one flying over the president's office building and a medium-sized one on a stand in the president's office and another one in each of his staff conference rooms. There isn't just one of them, like the Hope Diamond. In some storage rooms, there are probably boxes full of them. In any case this should be consistent with Flag of the president of the United States, which was the title agreed for that in a very recent RM. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 23:32, 20 May 2023 (UTC)
 * A proper noun need not refer to just one unique object; it may be the name of a specific unique class or type. There are many Ford Explorers, which are distinct from someone seeking a way to cross a river, and many Academy Awards that all come from one specific well-known academy. Similarly, a president may own many flags, but Flag of the President of Ukraine is the name of one very specific flag design. Station1 (talk) 16:28, 21 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Support per MOS:JOBTITLES, etc. "The president of Ukraine" is an office (a job); see lead sentence of President of Ukraine: "The president of Ukraine ... is the head of state of Ukraine. The president represents the nation in international relations, ..." (not "President"). It's capitalized when joined to a name: "President Zelenskyy".  — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼  06:44, 25 May 2023 (UTC)
