Only users with Autopatrol rights may now overwrite files uploaded by other users. You may request autopatrol rights here. If you are currently ineligible for autopatrol rights, you may request an exception for a particular file on this page. This page is only for requests on the technical permission; proposals for file improvements should be made on the file talk page.

Make sure that your planned overwriting complies with the file overwriting guidelines.

The template that allows overwriting a file ({{Allow Overwriting}}) may be placed by any user with patrol rights.

Most of them do have a low effort svg tracing, and I'd like to fix that AtikaAtikawa (talk) 19:05, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'd prefer if you listed the files you wanted to overwrite, rather than link to a gallery. Abzeronow (talk) 23:40, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I've added the template for each file up to Meknes, except for Oujda which has good enough quality. Abzeronow (talk) 22:04, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Now to Khenifra. Abzeronow (talk) 22:46, 12 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Now up to Essaouira. Didn't add template to El Kelaa des Srarhna (1976-1997) since flag is fine. Abzeronow (talk) 23:42, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Now to Ouarzazate. Will complete request tomorrow. Abzeronow (talk) 01:07, 14 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Done added template to every file except Oujda, Khemisset, El Kelaa des Srarhna, Tata, Tan Tan and Laayoune. Abzeronow (talk) 01:08, 15 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, similar to my previous request, I would like to overwrite some other flags to fix outdated hex colors, according to their respective brand guides. Salmonpepperrice (talk) 07:03, 12 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

First 9 are done. I'll finish this request tomorrow. Abzeronow (talk) 22:49, 12 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Done Template added to every file requested. Abzeronow (talk) 01:18, 14 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The official coat of arms of the municipality of Tírvia has been modified by the Catalan government. I want to update this file by changing the colour of the stars and the position of the moon. MrPotato1010 (talk) 15:38, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done Please upload a new file with these changes. I can move this file as well. Abzeronow (talk) 16:54, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Then please rename to Escut de Tírvia (1988-2024).svg or similar, so that I can upload the current version as Escut de Tírvia.svg. Thanks! MrPotato1010 (talk) 18:04, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

File has been moved. I'll delete the redirect for you after universal replace has been done. Abzeronow (talk) 18:08, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@MrPotato1010:  Done Just upload your version to the file name. Abzeronow (talk) 18:36, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The uploaded coat of arms is incorrect, as Baroness Manningham-Buller in fact has her motto in Latin (not English) and has no supporters (which belong rather to her nephew, the Viscount Dilhorne) hence also no compartment – per Illustrated Catalogue of Stall Plates of the Knights of the Garter in St George’s Chapel, Windsor Castle, 2019, WG Winterbourne and DR Axson, page N26/2; and per Debrett’s Peerage 2019 page 785 (which can be verified instantly via Google Books preview). — Richardguk (talk) 21:07, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Both files have the Oberegg district of Appenzeller Innerrhoden shown as in the anti-Sonderbund alliance, which is inaccurate - the entire canton presumably remained neutral, not just the five southern districts. The image that they are based on (File:Sonderbund.png) correctly marks the two parts of the district that are big enough to be seen on the map as neutral (it's been updated more recently by the creator).

I'd like to replace the existing file (black text on white background) with the correct formatting (yellow text on green background). I have the SVG file matching the source template ready to upload. Ajm1095 (talk) 00:40, 15 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'd normally be hesitant to change it to that, but the desired format does harmonize it with the other UK road signs of its type. (I could always split it later if this winds up being contentious.).  Done You can now overwrite this file. Abzeronow (talk) 01:22, 15 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This is a rather minor request. Phú Quốc island is mistakenly colored as part of Cambodia, so I'd like to change its color to match Vietnam's. Thank you in advance. Underdwarf58 (talk) 12:59, 16 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
