- Request
- Would anyone be able to please create an SVG file for the cypher used by Queen Mary of the United Kingdom (consort to King George V), as seen here (it's the one on the right, and you'd need to zoom in very close for the exact details). As usual, I'd ask that it follows the same artistic style as the other cyphers provided above, including the exact same depiction of the Tudor Crown. Thanks. Snow Lion Fenian (talk) 01:02, 7 August 2024 (UTC)
- Graphist opinion(s)
- @Snow Lion Fenian: Done. J. Dann (talk) 12:56, 2 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Cypp0847: Thank you profusely for creating these! Just a few small changes before I close this request:
- Based on my own observations of the source image; I'm inclined to believe that the "knot" that winds around the vertical "stem" of the "R" should actually be arranged looping over the "tail", then under the "stem", then back over the "stem" again.
- Also, regarding the line that loops out backwards from the top of the "R" around to the upper-right section of the "M"; I believe the part that runs under the third vertical "pillar" of the "M" should actually be running over it, and that the curved end of the same line should be under the same "pillar" instead of over it.
- What do you think? (Sorry if I haven't explained it very well.) Snow Lion Fenian (talk) 00:55, 4 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Snow Lion Fenian: Let me know if this is what in your mind. Thanks. J. Dann (talk) 07:08, 4 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Cypp0847: Thank you! One or two more tweaks:
- @Snow Lion Fenian: Let me know if this is what in your mind. Thanks. J. Dann (talk) 07:08, 4 October 2024 (UTC)
- What do you think? (Sorry if I haven't explained it very well.) Snow Lion Fenian (talk) 00:55, 4 October 2024 (UTC)
- The two lines that cross together to form the "knot" beside the "R" are currently shown melded together, when in fact they should be arranged with the upper-right line running above the lower-right "tail" line (sorry I wasn't clearer about that before).
- The parts of the lower-right "tail" of the "R" that extend through the lower-right "tail" of the "M" were actually fine the way they were before, first going over and then going under (rather than going over both times as on the new version).
- And perhaps you could apply all changes to the other cypher you've created well? Sorry for the inconvenience. Snow Lion Fenian (talk) 14:32, 4 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Snow Lion Fenian: No problem. Both should resemble what it should have looked like now. J. Dann (talk) 07:24, 5 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Cypp0847: Thanks again! So regarding the "knot" around the "R", the part that loops around the "stem" was actually fine the way it was in the previous version, with the top part over the "stem" and the bottom part under the "stem" (rather than the other way around as on the new version). Also, regarding the two lines that cross together to the right side of the "R" (the ones that were melded together in the previous files) should actually be arranged with the upper-right line running over the lower-right line (and not the other way around as on the current files). Sorry again for the hassle, and indeed for not providing better explanations. Snow Lion Fenian (talk) 16:56, 5 October 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.

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)
- Graphist opinion(s)
- 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 (talk) 20:19, 30 August 2024 (UTC)
- @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 ❤️💚💙 (please tag me) 07:20, 31 August 2024 (UTC)
- @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 (talk) 15:46, 31 August 2024 (UTC)
- @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)
- @Immanuelle: Links are only active when the SVG file is displayed. On wiki pages, a PNG file is displayed instead. By changing languages, do you mean changing the targets of links? (e.g., https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Namu_My%C5%8Dh%C5%8D_Renge_Ky%C5%8D to point to another wiki?) That would be relatively hard and contorted. Making the links point to WikiData would be possible; then the user could click a link to view a wiki article. Better would be a WikiData link that redirected to a wiki article in the user's language. (IIRC, there was a request for such links but I do not think they exist.) Or do you mean you want to translate the Chinese characters to other languages? Glrx (talk) 16:34, 12 September 2024 (UTC)
- @Glrx yeah that functionality would be good.
- The icon is always written in Japanese in all churches/temples whether they do their services in Japanese, English, or other languages. But letting people click the names and redirect to their language articles from wikidata would be great, especially since it means the image would not need to be edited in the future when new language articles get added.
- We could make an english language version of this too, honestly it is a bit difficult for me because I am bilingual enough that I would not know what a monolingual person would want. Immanuelle ❤️💚💙 (please tag me) 05:26, 13 September 2024 (UTC)

Decrease the size of this PDF without compressing the image quality itself
[edit]Article(s): [[]]
- Request
- File:Speedy (1928).pdf is so large that Wikimedia sites can't load individual pages, but downloading of the entire PDF is still possible. Could someone please do this because I have no idea how? Thanks. SnowyCinema (talk) 02:45, 3 October 2024 (UTC)
- Graphist opinion(s)
- @SnowyCinema: The PDF contains 312 images (ranging from small empty pages of about 70KB to large pages of around 3MB, totaling 251MB). The PDF itself is 208MB in size, meaning that some compression has already been applied. I’m not sure how the PDF could be compressed further without reducing the quality of the individual images. I used Ghostscript to compress the PDF (option: 'ebook'), and in my opinion, the text is still sufficiently readable. I uploaded the PDF, now about 80MB in size. Feel free to revert the edit if you're not satisfied. ––Mrmw (talk) 04:48, 3 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Mrmw: I appreciate it. It seems that we're having the usual PDF bug now where a PDF shows up as being 0 x 0 on the frontend. This has been ongoing for over a year and I don't know if it's been pushed to the Phabricator. Usually if you purge and null edit it enough times it fixes the issue. But I can't get it to be fixed...

- The issue is tracked at phab:T299521. It's still unresolved. – Ammarpad (talk) 11:12, 4 October 2024 (UTC)

Coats of arms of Hải Dương & Nam Định, French Indo-China
[edit]-
Coat of arms of Hải Dương.
-
Coat of arms of Nam Định.
-
Requested file (Hải Dương).
-
Requested file (Nam Định).
Article(s): [[]], various articles related to the French domination period of these cities and Viet-Nam in general.
- Request
- I would like to request the vectorisation of the coats of arms of the cities of Hải Dương & Nam Định during the French domination period. Unfortunately, I don't have any better images of these coats of arms, in case of the coat of arms of Nam Định it might be better to make it black and white like this. The colour scheme of the Hải Dương coat of arms is consistent as other examples are found here (note that some of the images on the shield are also more visible on it there).
- Similar coats of arms
-
Coat of arms of Hanoi.
-
Coat of arms of Hải Phòng.

- Addendum, originally I requested the file names as the following:
<gallery> File:Coat of arms of Hải Dương.svg|Requested file (Hải Dương). File:Coat of arms of Nam Định.svg|Requested file (Nam Định). </gallery>
- This being "File:Coat of arms of Hải Dương.svg" and "File:Coat of arms of Nam Định.svg", respectively. But I think that it might be better to change the Nam Định one to "File:Coat of arms of Nam Định (black and white).svg", so we have "a base coat of arms" for after I (or someone else) find(s) the (true) colours of the coat of arms of Nam Định in the future. So, the desired file name should include "(black and white)". --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 12:26, 5 October 2024 (UTC)
- Addendum, here are more general duty (revenue tax) stamps of the city of Hải-Dương to show more details of the 4 (four) images within the heraldic shield:
-
5 cents general duty stamp (blue background) - Hải Dương (1930) Society of Indo-China Philatelists.
-
5 cents general duty stamp (pink background) - Hải Dương (1930) Society of Indo-China Philatelists.
-
10 cents general duty stamp (yellow background) - Hải Dương (1930) Society of Indo-China Philatelists.
