Name
"Free Lebanon State" appears to be a mistranslation from Arabic by the article's creator. Scholarly sources on the subject consistently use the translation "State of Free Lebanon". A general search on Google returns only mirrors or citations of Wikipedia. See Google Ngrams. Yue 🌙 06:44, 8 October 2023 (UTC)

Flag
From my research it appears the flag may be inaccurate or fabricated. It cites a crwflags.com article that states that it was the first flag of the Lebanese Army (although that links to a source I cannot find) and it mentions no connection to the State of Free Lebanon or the South Lebanon Army. I did find an article on the website that features the flag of the "Army of South Lebanon" which mentions they used the proper flag, but it sources (what seems to be an old article of) Wikipedia.
