Not done: If you can provide well-sourced information related to the flag, please do provide it here. You are likely looking for 2023 Israel-Hamas war and the numerous related articles. Tollens (talk) 19:51, 13 October 2023 (UTC)
- Iiioioioiooo -- What is the relevance of the current conflict to the flag? Please explain... AnonMoos (talk) 20:11, 13 October 2023 (UTC)
Colours section
editThe "Colours" section of the article is completely empty except for a table containing the specific values of the colors of the flag, which appears to be wholy unsourced?
I'm not a Hebrew speaker, let alone a native one, but I have an interest in historical linguistics and it's my understanding that legislation simply describes the flag of a תְּכֵלֶת (təḵēleṯ) color, which in Modern Hebrew refers to a sky blue color, but historically refered to an indigo-like color extracted from a species of sea snail. It feels like this information should be in the article.
If the flag has no legal specifications for its color, than the table should be removed, if it has, then those specifications should be sourced. Pescavelho (talk) 12:16, 11 June 2024 (UTC)
- We have a whole article on Tekhelet... AnonMoos (talk) 08:59, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
- I feel like it merits mention in this article anyways, the Colours section is completely empty otherwise. Regardless, my issue is mostly that the color table in this article, which lays out specific color codes, cites no sources. Normally I'd just add an Unreferenced section template but the page is protected so I'm bringing this up in the talk page. Pescavelho (talk) 16:18, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
- The International Flag Book in Color, by Christian-Fogd Pedersen, noted that the shade of blue on the national flag is variable. 73.75.170.176 (talk) 19:01, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
- If it can be any shade, then it should be noted in the article that there's no specificied shade. Instead of there being a table with precise values which will induce people in error. Pescavelho (talk) 10:53, 5 August 2024 (UTC)

Please set to "none" as short description, unlike other flag articles that are intentionally blank. 36.66.130.147 (talk) 10:16, 12 October 2024 (UTC)
