Taiwan - UN observer of one specialized agency

According to the article, Taiwan is an "Observer in one UN specialized agency under the name Chinese Taipei". Which agency does this refer to? I was only able to find that Taiwan was formerly an observer in the World Health Organisation under that name, but have not been since 2016. Kidburla (talk) 13:13, 29 June 2021 (UTC)

Flag sizes

The flag sizes used to be bigger prior to a major change in 2018. This change was ostensibly made to merge other articles into this one as per a talk page discussion. I have looked at the relevant discussion and I can't see anything about changed flag sizes. Was it intentional to change the flag sizes or was this a mistake during the merge? Personally I think they looked better with the old flag size in prior versions of the page. Kidburla (talk) 18:18, 15 September 2021 (UTC)

Donetsk and Luhansk

Since most Wikipedia sovereign states lists include the two Russian-recoginzed 'other states', this list should also include Donetsk and Luhansk. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.197.134.44 (talk) 21:42, 28 April 2022 (UTC)

Donetsk and Luhansk should be removed from the list, as they are no longer partially recognized states nor do they make any claims to sovereignty following Russia’s annexation of them on 30 September 2022. Additionally, they are now included on the list of historical unrecognized states and are not present on the list of current unrecognized states. Pixelranium (talk) 05:27, 31 October 2022 (UTC)

Chart writing not visible on mobile when in dark mode

Not sure to fix this, as I'm new to editing Wikipedia but when trying to read the information in the charts on my phone,I had to switch it to darlmode to read anything that wasn't a link. The charts appear white and the writing also appears white. when in light mode, the chart stays white but the writing switches to black, making it readable. Any way to make the chart backgrounds change with the theme? Willski2002 (talk) 00:24, 25 June 2024 (UTC)

@Willski2002: What dark mode are you using? On my dark mode, which uses the built-in en.wiki gadget, the chart is black and the text is white. The built-in one does mess up colours, but should work for basic wikitables. CMD (talk) 03:07, 25 June 2024 (UTC)
