Template-protected edit request on 19 May 2023

[edit]

Request to change the ensign of civil fleet displayed here. This ensign has never had the character of a state flag. Placing it here as a "symbol" of Austro-Hungary is a mistake. This ensign has been removed from the Austria-Hungary article and many others. More on the subject in terms of content, see the article Flags of Austria-Hungary. This is a substantive error that is currently being fixed in wikipedia (there are still many links left). I suggest changing the ensign to the flag of the ruling Habsburg dynasty most often used as a symbol of Austria-Hungary (alternatively on a symbolic hybrid flag) or official coat of arms.

Evidently the flag used by {{Country data Austria-Hungary}}, which is File:Flag of Austria-Hungary (1867–1918).svg is the same as the Habsburg Monarchy flag, and the flag used by this template for the task force is the Merchant Navy (Civil) ensign: Austria-Hungary {{flag icon|Austria-Hungary|merchant navy}}, so we probably should go with either the "Flag of Austria-Hungary (1867–1918).svg" or the identical "Flag of the Habsburg Monarchy.svg".
