Regarding {{hoax}}

[編輯]

The {{hoax}} template has been placed on this page by Flagvisioner. While I am not aware of the flag's official status in regard to the current government of the Cabina province, this flag has seen actual usage by the secessionist "Republic of Cabinda", as can be seen in multiple photos (archived here) of passports issued by the republic, as well as on a webpage for their national bank (archived here).
It may be better to move the file to a name without the word "province" if we cannot verify its official use by the provincial government, but I think the placement of {{hoax}} is misleading, as the flag has seen actual use representing Cabinda (just possibly not in the form of a province).
If anyone can find a source that this flag is in use by the provincial government (or a source stating otherwise), that would be helpful.
Does anyone else have thoughts on removing {{hoax}} (and the possibility of moving the file)?

Hello,
I added the template because I highly doubt it is the flag of the province. Also, I would like to point out, the website says "Commonwealth of Cabinda", different from "Republic of Cabinda". Is there a difference?
Since I see no official use by the provincial government, (plus, although I haven't read on the history of Cabinda, I think it'd be a bit ironic for Cabinda to use a secessionist flag in Angola, where it isn't exactly famous for being democratic.), I think we should rename this to File:Flag of Cabinda (Cabinda Free State variant).svg or anything along the lines of that.

The page about the bank/currency uses "Republic of Cabinda", but the page about passports/identity cards uses "Cabinda Free State" & "Commonwealth of Cabinda" in the text of the while "Republic of Cabinda" appears in the photographs of the passport. Though the two archived pages use different terms, both seem to be referring to the same entity, as the pages are from the same domain and the same year.
I think moving the page to File:Flag of the Republic of Cabinda.svg and removing {{hoax}} is an acceptable solution here. "Republic of Cabinda" seems the safest term as it appears on both pages, and on the page where it appears either in all the photographs containing the flag design at the source(s) and as the caption below the render of the flag. -No Lives LeftNᴇᴡTᴀʟᴋ04:19, 2 April 2023 (UTC)[回覆]
