Reassessment
[edit ]- This discussion is transcluded from Talk:Rainbow flag/GA1. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the reassessment.
This article has been expanded with a lot of unsourced content since passing GA in 2007. Therefore, it fails GA criteria 2. sst ✈ 12:27, 14 October 2015 (UTC) Reply
- Since there has been no progress after more than 7 days of the start of the reassessment, and I have already notified relevant WikiProjects, I am delisting this article. sst ✈ 08:12, 22 October 2015 (UTC) Reply
@Pyxis Solitary and RootOfAllLight: regarding the Brotherhood flag which appears to be a clone of the Flag of the Races mentioned in the archive of that The American ref shown in the summary of this edit. Fred Gandt · talk · contribs 22:13, 30 June 2024 (UTC) Reply
- Quoting source: "Others say Baker got the idea from the 1960s Hippie movement whose peace activists often carried a Flag of the Races with five horizontal stripes: red, black, brown, yellow, and white, representing the different ethnicities."
I get what you're saying about the Brotherhood flag maybe being a clone of the Races flag, but the edit I reverted stated "The flag design may have been inspired by the Brotherhood Flag from 1938." Pyxis Solitary (yak yak). Ol' homo. 06:52, 3 July 2024 (UTC) Reply- Indeed; no argument there; worth noting that there may be more to the story though. I only found a couple of half-reasonable references about the link when I went looking: this self published refers to its source as the "Carleton Sexuality and Gender Center" and I tried to find that source but came up empty. If a Wayback Machine whisperer cares to try we might get lucky; also self published (I think), there's this talking about assumptions that the two are linked. Although they aren't good enough as references, there definitely seems to be something to the suggestion that there's a connection.

Why isn't included in the other rainbow flags? The same with the Wiphala flag. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2803:C600:5115:C088:C090:27E2:6B6E:EDE (talk) 16:37, 25 January 2025 (UTC) Reply
