- Request
- Are there people with AI tools skills here? If so, could somebody please replace the spray nozzle on the left with a realistic one? For somebody with good AI tools skills that may be a matter of seconds to few minutes, for example there are AI tools to easily remove parts of an image and afaik also tools to re-generate / inpaint selected parts of an image based on a prompt (such as "highly realistic spray nozzle"). There are further cases of AI images that could be fixed. --Prototyperspective (talk) 10:42, 13 July 2024 (UTC)

Request to vectorize the hypothetical blue ensign of prince edward island.
[edit]-
-
This is the original PNG file, not vectorized.
-
It is proposed that the Hong Kong coat of arms in the white disc be replaced with the badge of Prince Edward Island, based on this pre-1997 Hong Kong Blue Ensign.
-
The pattern for the Prince Edward Island badge was taken from this former Governor's flag and placed on the white disc to the right of the pre-1997 Hong Kong Blue Ensign.
Article(s): en:Flag of Prince Edward Island
- Request
- I found that other provinces in Canada, such as British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Quebec, New Brunswick, etc., did not formally formulate official flags before 1965, but they all had their own hypothetical blue ensigns. Can you vectorize the hypothetical blue ensign of Prince Edward Island? Thanks. --反共抗獨光復民國 (talk) 04:12, 8 August 2024 (UTC)

- @Great Brightstar OK, and I just found that the two trees symbol on the right side of the flag are incorrect. The small trees on the left is not just one tree, but three small trees on the left and one big tree on the right. Can you replace the symbol with a pattern of three small trees and one big tree? new trees symbol reference source: File:Arms of Prince Edward Island.svg You just need to extract the trees symbol from this coat of arms and place it on the white disc to replace the original trees symbol. The text below the trees symbol remains unchanged. 反共抗獨光復民國 (talk) 08:05, 31 August 2024 (UTC)

- Why are we calling it CC-BY-SA? I think it is either a {{PD-textlogo}} or {{No permission since}}
- Logo you linked slightly differs from PNG in both colors and relative sizes. I pasted the prior SVG and forced the colors to be black and white, but left sizes unchanged; let me know if you want me to vectorize it directly or change.
- Gabuxae (talk) 17:44, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
- @Gabuxae: The PNG should not be CC-BY-SA. The only way we could host the 2020 logo on Commons is if that logo is {{PD-textlogo}} (which it appears to be). Somebody else should not be able to claim a copyright on the design if ABC cannot. If someone could, then ABC would have a copyright. Glrx (talk) 19:23, 12 August 2024 (UTC)

Two military colours of Malta
[edit]Article(s): w:Flag of Malta, w:List of flags of Malta, w:Armed Forces of Malta
- Request
- On this page of the AFM website I saw following descriptions for its colour:
The AFM Colour of the Armed Forces of Malta is an oddity amongst military flags within the British tradition. This infantry colour bears the symbols of artillery, which normally would carry no ceremonial flags.
Specifically, it is a red-above-blue bicolour, bearing at the centre the badge of the Royal Malta Artillery (minus Royal Crown), which is the main predecessor of the modern-day Armed Forces of Malta; the motto "TUTELA BELLICAE VIRTUTIS" means "Custodians of Military Prowess". The four corners bear the seven-flamed grenade above the scroll reading "MALTA", tilted 45 degrees.
Currently it carries three battle honours on scrolls, from top to bottom: "MDCCC" (Siege of Valetta 1800); "EGYPT 1882"; and (below the motto) "MALTA 1942". All emblems are in gold, with the exception of the Maltese Cross of the RMA badge, which is white. Red sleeve; golden fringe, cord and tassels; black pole with a silver finial in the form of a hollowed spearhead bearing a Maltese Cross.- In addition, there is also the description for its presidential colour:
The Armed Forces of Malta's Presidential Colour is the National Flag with a yellow de Redin Tower at the centre, above a yellow scroll reading "FORZI ARMATI". Red sleeve; golden fringe, cord and tassels; black pole with a silver finial in the form of a hollowed spearhead bearing a Maltese Cross.

Nichiren Gohonzon rendering issues
[edit]-
Badly rendering image
-
How it shows up in inkscape
Article(s): en:Gohonzon
- Request
- I recently uploaded the image File:Great Mandala (大曼荼羅) of Nichiren Buddhism.svg and it really has trouble rendering here. How can it be fixed to render properly as the screencap I posted from inkscape demonstrates it rendering as? Also anyone who knows this better feel free to edit the svg to get rid of cruft. There is a decent amount in the file. --Immanuelle ❤️💚💙 (please tag me) 19:10, 30 August 2024 (UTC)

- Commons' default Chinese font and several other fonts do not have vertical escapements.
- I added the font Noto Sans CJK SC (simplified Chinese). If you want traditional, we can use AR PL Ukai TW.

- @Glrx I would like traditional, as this is actually written in Japanese, not Chinese. There also seems to be a spacing issue with rendering though, since if I look here I can see the right side font kind of colliding with the center. Thank you.

- @Immanuelle:
- I set the alignment-baseline to central and removed dominant-baseline: text-after-edge. Does that fix the spacing issue?
- I set the fonts to Noto Sans JP, Noto Sans CJK JP, AR PL Ukai TW, Noto Sans CJK SC, sans-serif (the original SVG specifies sans-serif).
- The file also uses a lot of spaces to set the text position....

- @Glrx Yes it does fix the issue, thank you Immanuelle ❤️💚💙 (please tag me) 16:56, 31 August 2024 (UTC)
- As for the spacing. I think it should be fixed to not rely as much on it. Since this is copied from Japanese wikipedia Immanuelle ❤️💚💙 (please tag me) 11:32, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
- @Glrx also is it possible to change this image to add clickable links into it? Most of these are names of deities so that would be very useful. Immanuelle ❤️💚💙 (please tag me) 11:33, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
- I got a clickable image. But I am not sure if we could change languages or something there Immanuelle ❤️💚💙 (please tag me) 16:36, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
