Effective date of new flag change
May 11, 2024 is the effective date.

Previous discussion mentions two dates for the new flag change, both based upon press articles. This is probably based upon Wikipedia's preference for interpretation of original materials. However, to resolve the conflicting dates, I point out that the Flag of Minnesota article links to the statute which states the official effective date. SEWilco (talk) 18:17, 24 February 2024 (UTC)

"Scalable" map hard to read, doesn't zoom in
The map has a lot of odd character spacing in the place names, making some of them hard to read; for example, St Croix River looks more like S. Crd xRiver. Also, hovering over the map turns the cursor into a + symbol, which normally means you can click to zoom in, but clicking zooms the image out instead. 2601:642:C201:210:D473:4D77:27B5:BE8E (talk) 01:57, 31 March 2024 (UTC)
