Talk:Roman Catholic Territorial Prelature of Pompei

Removed flag of Italian Republic from Infobox, per WP:ICON; was part of the Kingdom of Naples far longer than part of Italian republic, and belonged to France, Aragon and the Angevins
I removed the Italian Republic flag (of 1946) icon from the Infobox, in accordance with several sections of WP:ICON; specifically (quoting),


 * Generally, flag icons should not be used in infoboxes, even when there is a "country", "nationality" or equivalent field: they are unnecessarily distracting and give undue prominence to one field among many....
 * Flags make simple, blunt statements about nationality, while words can express the facts with more complexity.
 * Do not rewrite history. Flags should not be used to misrepresent the nationality of a historical figure [including some bishops], event, object, etc. Political boundaries change, often over the span of a biographical article subject's lifetime. Where ambiguity or confusion could result, it is better not to use a flag at all, and where one is genuinely needed, use the historically accurate flag.

The territorial prelature is a part of the Roman Catholic Church, not the Italian Republic. Its prelates are appointed by the Vatican, not the Quirinale.
