File talk:Flag of the Netherlands.svg
Since all images uploaded to local projects are to be replaced with images on Commons, the reference for the colours given by the person who uploaded this file will be lost as soon as that happens. There are standards for the colours of the Dutch flag, to which there are references on the original picture - marked as "duplicate" by the creator of this image. By creating an image under another name, and deleting all images that have references to the origin of the colours, information is lost. -- Quistnix 08:45, 16 October 2005 (UTC)
- All references are in the description for this image now it seems. The reference to the government document describing the flag, and the RGB colours deduced from that. JeroenHoek 16:22, 16 October 2005 (UTC)
- Volgens [1] zijn de trichromatische coëfficiënten voor de standaard vlaggenkleur rood: X=18,3; Y=10,0; Z=3,0 en niet:X=17,2; Y=9,0 en Z=2,6. Zie Normblad NEN 3055.
- Kortom, deze vlag klopt mogelijk niet. TeunSpaans 05:16, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
- This flag is not correct indeed as the coefficients for the red color have to be X=18,3; Y=10; Z=3,0. See [2]. I have no clue on how to change this in the svg file however. - Pahles (talk) 10:40, 29 June 2009 (UTC)
- Did some more research. It seems the RGB colors used in the file are correct. The XYZ colors mentioned in the description are wrong, however. As said the red is X=18,3; Y=10; Z=3,0 and the blue is X=7.5; Y=6.6; Z=25.3 according to the Dutch standardization bureau as mentioned in the link in my previous comment. - Pahles (talk) 09:00, 29 June 2009 (UTC)

Additions
[edit]{{Editprotected}} This file should be added to these categories:
- [Category:Flags with three horizontal stripes of blue, red and white colour combination]
- [Category:SVG flags - the Netherlands] instead of [SVG flags]
- [Category:SVG sovereign state flags]
- [Category:Tricolor flags]
Also, I think the current descriptions should be replaced with this uniform list with additional languages:

Important: This flag is WRONG!
[edit]The latest version (april 6) is upside down! The red part should be on top, the blue part at the bottom. See previous versions, these were correct! Since this image is protected I cannot correct it... Lexw (talk) 07:18, 6 April 2010 (UTC)
