Did You Know
A fact from this article appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the "Did you know?" column on December 14, 2008.
The text of the entry was: Did you know ... that, among the flags of Romania, the flag of the Romanian Revolution of 1989 (pictured) has been called "the flag with the hole"?

DPEПTATE?[edit]

Why is it written DPEПTATE instead of ДPEПTATE? The article on Romanian Cyrillic alphabet shows Д. Is this a distinct letter, or just a variant printing form of Д? --Amble (talk) 04:18, 15 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

We are talking about a transitional alphabet. During the XIXth century, the Danubian Principalities gradually left out cyrillic letters, replacing them with latin ones. Check out this painting carefully. It is from 1848 precisely. You can clearly see it's a D. --Alex:D (talk) 20:14, 24 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
PS: This transition was slow and there were no strict rules for it. As you can see on the military flag from 1848 that has survived, the Д is still present. --Alex:D (talk) 20:18, 24 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Interesting, thanks. I did notice the picture showing the clear D, not Д. It's very striking, since I'm not at all used to seeing Latin and Cyrillic letters together in the same word. --Amble (talk) 04:42, 26 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I believe that this article has enough material to become a Good Srticle. It was a DYK and is over 85,407 bytes. It'll make a great GA nominee. Secret Saturdays (talk) 00:07, 23 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose): a (MoS):
  1. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:
  2. It is stable.
    No edit wars etc.:
  3. It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
    a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
    My conceran it that it has too many images as maybe it is possibly i have seen some GAs with gallerys but i recomend that you take the non neasecery images.
  4. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):

I will let seven days to improve the artical. --Pedro J. the rookie 00:52, 1 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please be more specific with your concerns. It is difficult to improve things if you are too vague about them. ···日本穣? · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe 04:22, 1 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Regarding your concern about too many images, I don't think this is the case here. The article is about the various flags of ROmania, which is necessarily a visual topic. Therefore, anyone reading the article would expect to see a large number and wide variety of examples of the various flags used throughout Romania's history. I don't think the article is overwhelmed with the images. ···日本穣? · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe 04:27, 1 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Point takean.--Pedro J. the rookie 00:06, 2 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Overall: Pass. --Pedro J. the rookie 00:08, 2 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Intro[edit]

Can someone bulk-up the intro? It should be at least twice the present size as a GA. Nergaal (talk) 22:39, 4 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
