@Abo Yemen: I see what happened here now: the temp account was just moving the Janad flag to the appropriate row ([1]); I was looking at the row whose image was blanked and thought this was a random shuffle. Instead, that row should just be deleted now if there’s nothing to show.

However, I now notice a bigger problem: are any of these supposed “regional” flags verifiable? Most of the “regional flag” images were intentionally deleted from Wiki Commons in September ([2]) for being probably fictional, and then they some were re-added by Python Soleus in December, still without sources. Does anyone know if these flags can actually be found in a reliable source somewhere? (Not WP:FOTW or its affiliated sites.) If not, then we should probably just remove this section.

It’s fine, as for the verifyabilty of those flags, they are flag proposals that were made during the National Dialogue Conference, but are not in de jure use. Only the flags of Tihamah and Hadhramaut are currently being used, but only by the Tihamah Resistance and the Hadhrami League 𐩣𐩫𐩧𐩨 Abo Yemen (𓃵) 17:37, 24 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, this should probably be mentioned then in the descriptions or somewhere nearby (like maybe an introductory statement at the top of the section). Readers will otherwise assume these are all flags in official use. R Prazeres (talk) 17:53, 24 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Also should the article be titled List of Yemeni flags or List of Yemenite flags? User:Easternsahara 19:05, 24 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

That’s a fair question but should be a separate discussion/thread (feel free to start a new one below). R Prazeres (talk) 22:57, 24 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Both are correct, and I prefer the status quo, but that’s just a mere preference 𐩣𐩫𐩧𐩨 Abo Yemen (𓃵) 04:06, 26 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]
