Four Provinces Flag
❌ - No use given

Article(s): Request: Create an alternative version of this file named File:Four Provinces Flag 2.svg by arranging the arms so that the flag of Connacht is in the upper left quarter, the flag of Ulster is in the upper right quarter, the flag of Munster is in the bottom left quarter and the flag of Leinster is in the bottom right quarter.

Bulgarian royal and imperial coats of arms
Articles: Kingdom of Bulgaria, Second Bulgarian Empire

Request: The royal coat of arms is in svg format, but hardly looks like a vector graphic. The current Bulgarian coat of arms http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Coat_of_arms_of_Bulgaria.svg is very similar to the royal one and can be used for comparison. And the imperial coat of arms is somewhat similar to the royal arms of England: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Royal_Arms_of_England_(1198-1340).svg Kreuzkümmel (talk) 00:22, 23 May 2012 (UTC) Graphist opinion(s):

Some flags
Please create some rather simple flags: A talented german graphist created a working file de:Datei:Wappen Tuwa.svg, but did not complete the flags:
 * [[File:Flag of the Tuvan People's Republic (1930).svg]] is simple: Take File:Flag of Tannu Tuva (1921-1926).svg and replace the emblem by de:Datei:Wappen Tuwa.svg, but change the colors according to File:Coat of arms of Tuvinian People's Republic.gif
 * [[File:Flag of the Tuvan People's Republic (1926-1930).svg]] is more difficult: The wheat should be changed according to, maybe you can use parts of File:Coat of arms of Laos.svg the text can be found here
 * [[File:Flag of the Tuvan People's Republic (1930-1935).svg]] is easy, see File:Flag of Tannu Tuva (1930 to 1933).png. The PNG file is not really complete, as it lacks the motto, the text is Pygy telegejniņ proletarlarь polgaş tarlatkan arattarь kattьƶьņar! or capitalized: PYGY TELEGEJNIŅ PROLETARLARЬ POLGAŞ TARLATKAN ARATTARЬ KATTЬƵЬŅAR!--Antemister (talk) 19:23, 24 May 2012 (UTC)

Mozambique COA
Article(s): Mozambique Request: Re-do the text on the svg coat of arms to match the PNG. User:Turn685 Graphist opinion(s):
 * Actually, the entire SVG could use a redo, but that will probably be a long wait.  Fry1989  eh?   23:01, 13 May 2012 (UTC)
 * I don't know why my name was added here. It was User:Turn685, see this.
 * In any case, it's not a coat of arms. - SSJ t 23:04, 27 May 2012 (UTC)

Tree diagram alteration
Article(s): Clique problem Request: The decision tree appears inaccurate. Following the leftmost branch, the existence of a triangle is ruled out by the absence of the diagonal of positive slope, despite the possibility remaining of either of the two triangles using the negative-slope diagonal.

By my reckoning, the "N" thereof (the leftmost N present) should be replaced with an additional circle, formatted consistently with the others in the image, in which the left vertical and upper horizontal lines are black, the right vertical and lower horizontal lines are blue, the negative-slope diagonal is red, and the positive-slope diagonal is absent. The children of this node should be "Y" and "N" leaves.

76.254.32.172 (talk) 04:36, 24 May 2012 (UTC) Are you sure that's right? It looks to me as if the presence of the negative slope diagonal is necessary but not sufficient: it still needs the right vertical or bottom horizontal to give a triangle. --Slashme (talk) 11:19, 11 June 2012 (UTC)

Bahamas' Island Crests/Arms
Article(s): The Bahamas, Coat of arms of the Bahamas Request: I ask that someone woth a fair degree of knowledge about SVG files, convert/ turn these images into svg files, if it's possible. I believe the quality of them would be much better as svg files. These are Island Crests/Arms of some islands of the Bahamas and as many of you may notice there isn't much about Bahamian heraldry on Wikipedia, so it would be good if someone can turn them into SVG's, thank you.

Coat of arms of the Azerbaijan People's Government

 * Do we need to split hairs?  Fry1989  eh?   03:29, 30 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Annoyed, Fry? I thought I was just being helpful by preventing a file from being erroneously named, so there's no reason to be sarcastic. - SSJ t 14:00, 30 May 2012 (UTC)
 * No, I'm not annoyed. I just believe that when a user is requesting the creation of an image, there's bigger priorities then correcting them on the exact type of symbol it is (emblem, coat of arms, seal). That can be taken care of when the image is uploaded.  Fry1989  eh?   19:01, 30 May 2012 (UTC)

OK, call it an emblem... Of course, this is not a coat of arms, but there is no general naming convention. Numerous emblems on Commons are named "Coat of arms".--Antemister (talk) 19:28, 30 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Sure, but according to heraldic conventions, that's not a correct definition. @Fry: Renaming files normally takes more time than writing one comment here. - SSJ t 22:54, 30 May 2012 (UTC)
 * No, I meant you could just take the request and upload it under a proper name the first time. That's what I would do.  Fry1989  eh?   19:31, 31 May 2012 (UTC)
 * It was not my intention to take the request. - SSJ t 21:49, 31 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Okay, did I do this right? The crown is not identical to the document. --Shandristhe azylean 15:30, 2 June 2012 (UTC)

Periodic table, fluorine, a very easy task
Article(s): Fluorine Request: Please re-color the carbon cell (6C, among the green, top row) into any color easily distinguished from others (pale yellow, whatever, you graphists know better), for the given article. Better systematization R8R Gtrs (talk) 18:25, 24 May 2012 (UTC) Graphist opinion(s):

You want me to colour the carbon cell and upload it to the same file or a different one?? Roshan220195 (talk)
 * The same file, please. The whole image is an illustration how elements are treated in the article (collective description, systematization), no need in two. Carbon needs to be re-colored since it is discussed separately from other non-metals (organic chemistry). (Also, I guess there's no need to re-color fluorine itself)--R8R Gtrs (talk) 18:23, 26 May 2012 (UTC)

How to make animation less annoying / distracting
Article(s): Frequency, removed recently from Hertz Request: I made this pedagogical animation, but people have complained that it is distracting and annoying, making it hard for them to read the article when this image is flashing on the side. Does anyone have suggestions to modify the image so that it is not distracting from the corner of the eye, but still conveys the information when you look right at it? I thought of maybe reducing the contrast between on and off, or reducing the size of the light, but I don't know if there's any better idea. (Cf. the image at the top of second. That got the same complaints, but no one has complained since I drastically shrunk the size of the image.) Steve (talk) 21:14, 25 May 2012 (UTC) Graphist opinion(s): Maybe making it in black and white would help. It would blend in with the remaining text and not irritate readers. Roshan220195 (talk)

✅: I did various things: Switched to black and white (that was good advice!), adjusted the timing, reduced the contrast, reduced the size of the dots. We'll see whether people still complain! Thanks! --Steve (talk) 20:16, 31 May 2012 (UTC)

Sanjak of Albania
Article(s): Sanjak of Albania Request: There is a map of the Sanjak of Albania published on the page 41 of this work. Will somebody be so kind to draw the map of the Sanjak of Albania based on the map from this source? Graphist opinion(s): That should be straight-forward. The only problem is the that I (and probably most graphists) have zero knowledge of Cyrillic, or the context of the graphics to make intelligent decisions. What are the dotted lines? Should each of the dotted line enclosed areas be shaded (colored) differently? Should the map be in Cyrillic or Latin? In either case, you'd need to provide a list of the words for the graphists planning on taking this task. Jon C (talk) 16:56, 11 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Antidiskriminator (talk) 09:36, 11 June 2012 (UTC)


 * I will provide a list of the words.--Antidiskriminator (talk) 19:03, 11 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Context: The map shows the territory of Sanjak of Albania.
 * Dotted lines: Dotted line is its border.
 * Colors: Areas enclosed by dotted lines should be colored, but not all of them differently. Venetian possesions (around lake Skadar, Alessio and Durrazo should have the same color since they all belong to the same state, Venetian Republic. Since its flag was red I propose to use some shade of red color for Venetian possesions. Area which contains Kroja and Gjirokaster belonged to the Ottoman Empire. I propose to use green color for this area. For the area of Posessions in Albania which paid tribute I propose light green color. Area which surrounds areas enclosed by dotted lines should remain noncolored because it belonged to three different entities not shown on the map (Ottoman Empire, Serbian Despotate and Herzegovina. Except the area which is Adriatic sea which should have light blue color.
 * Script and language: Map shold be on English, latin script.

List of the words: --Antidiskriminator (talk) 21:06, 11 June 2012 (UTC)

Article(s): Sudirman Request: Vectorise — Crisco 1492 (talk) 13:03, 17 June 2012 (UTC) Graphist opinion(s): It would help tremendously if there's a better scan (high resolution, clear image). The entire right side is nary visible, and it would be inauthentic to fill in the lines from imagination. Jon C (talk) 03:01, 18 June 2012 (UTC)


 * The scan in the book itself is much lacking. I'll give it another shot. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 03:08, 18 June 2012 (UTC)
 * The new file is essentially as good as it will get without the original document. He signed this while the city he was in was coming under attack, so it can be expected that it will be messy. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 05:46, 18 June 2012 (UTC)


 * Thanks Crisco for the new scan. I tried a careful trace over the new image, and extrapolated some lines to fit the flow of the hand (mostly on the second letter).  I feel the edges could use some smoothing, but that may detract from the authenticity even more.  I'm open to suggestions, but I'd also be happy to leave it as is.  The description is certainly incorrect as of the moment - it references some Indonesian singer.  Jon C (talk) 05:20, 21 June 2012 (UTC)
