Talk:Polska

I recently uploaded several images of Polish flags and coat of arms: Image:Flaga Rzeczypospolitej Polskiej.PNG, Image:Flaga z godlem Rzeczypospolitej Polskiej.PNG, Image:Bandera wojenna Rzeczypospolitej Polskiej.PNG, Image:Herb Rzeczypospolitej Polskiej.PNG. The shades and shapes are more accurate and correct than those in the images that were already on Commons: Image:Flag of Poland.svg, Image:Flag of Poland (state).svg , Image:Naval Ensign of Poland.svg (all uploaded by Denelson83), and Image:Herb Polski.svg (uploaded by Dbenbenn, so they should replace the old ones. The problem is they are in PNG format. Could someone please convert my images into SVG format and upload them on Commons? Kpalion 14:58, 16 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I uploaded a new version of Image:Flag of Poland.svg (upload time: 0:24 CDT, 29 November 2006) with the corrected (official) colors per pl:Flaga Polski and en:Flag of Poland. The modification was done by textual editing of the SVG file. The new content is:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?> <!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/1.1/DTD/svg11.dtd"> <svg width="1280" height="800" id="Flag of Poland" version="1.1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"> <rect width="1280" height="400" fill="#f0e3ed" /> <rect width="1280" height="400" fill="#d41d3b" y="400" /> </svg>

A further refinement, reflecting an expert's conversion of the official xyY specification to sRGB with the white point of 6500K (without the pinkish tinge to the white), a version which reflects the evolving opinion chronicled on the talk page w:pl:Dyskusja:Flaga Polski, with the appropriate textual changes propagated to w:pl:Flaga Polski and w:en:Flag of Poland articles, has been uploaded at 19:10 CDT, 29 November 2006. The new content is:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?> <!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/1.1/DTD/svg11.dtd"> <svg width="1280" height="800" id="Flag of Poland" version="1.1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"> <rect width="1280" height="400" fill="#e9e8e7" /> <rect width="1280" height="400" fill="#d4213d" y="400" /> <rect width="1280" height="800" fill="none" stroke-width="17" stroke="black"/> </svg>

This "new correct" grey-red flag is not official flag of Poland. Colors are wrong. Please check the President page http://www.prezydent.pl/x.node?id=70 Please change back this flag. --KridPL 12:21, 1 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

with the page apparently being locked and myself unable to edit it i'd like to ask the following changes to be made: the link under the Wilanow Palace changed from nonexistant Category:Wilanow to Category:Wilanów Palace and Category:Greek Catholic Church in Przemyśl->Category:Greek Catholic Cathedral in Przemyśl (it's a cathedral and there is also another Greek Catholic church in Przemysl belonging to the Basilian order).

Really informative gallery with many links & a lot of information - but perhaps a bit too much?

I think the gallery would be easier to take in if you would make separate galleries eg for 'Geography of Poland', 'Buildings in Poland',... and only put the best picturese on the main gallery - and I know that there are a lot of QIs and FPs from Poland - why not mark them?
