Template:Country data Kingdom of Cochin

 * The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more templates or modules. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the template's talk page or in a deletion review).

The result of the discussion was delete. Izno (talk) 17:04, 4 May 2024 (UTC) Per concerns given by User:Ishatmypants123 on File talk:Cochin flag.svg, the flag provided in this template is fictitious. For convenience, I will repost his comment here:
 * Country data Kingdom of Cochin

I would like to start off first by talking about this image's sources. http://www.crwflags.com/fotw/flags/in-cochi.html - This source, FOTW, says the following about the flag:

''Keralan nationalists resisted inclusion in India and attempted to declare the region independent in August 1947. Nations Without States calls a horizontal tricolor of red, yellow and turquoise "the Keralan national flag, the traditional flag of the state."''

It clearly mentions Keralan, referencing Keralites, but this is a flag for... Cochin. If you read the last part, it talks about it being "the Keralan national flag, the traditional flag of the state", not Cochin's flag. I looked into it's source and found that it is mentioning Kerala's secessionist movement specifically, not Cochin's. I will be quoting what was written on the source below:

 FLAG: The Keralan national flag, the traditional flag of the state, is a hori-zontal tricolor of red, yellow, and turquoise.

This can all be found in page 295 of the source "Nations Without States" by James Minhan, on a section specifically dedicated to Kerala, not Cochin.

I believe this flag to be quite dubious and misinformative, being a literal misattribution, I hope sufficient action can be taken on it. Thank you for considering my message. Koopinator (talk) 16:27, 27 April 2024 (UTC)

 * If you want to remove the flag from the template, that can be done without a TFD. If you want to delete or change the name of the flag, that must be done on Commons. Izno (talk) 01:06, 4 May 2024 (UTC)
 * The only purpose of the Country Data template is to add flags. Removal would prevent any editor from re-adding the flag template after removal. Koopinator (talk) 05:53, 4 May 2024 (UTC)
