Fails WP:GNG. No reliable source significantly covers this subject. The article is based on a collection of non-neutral, non-independent primary sources, aggregated by editorial WP:SYNTH, and some blogs or hobby websites, none covering the entire subject. No evidence that this can be improved. —Michael Z. 14:07, 12 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Maybe a name change to "List of flags used in the Russia-Ukrainian war", however I see it as being merely a list that needs a citation overhaul. Here are a few sources I found: 1, 2. Cheers, Nobody expects the UnexpectedSmoreInquisition (talk)! 03:04, 13 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The first source is about historical flags, with the single exception of the DNR flag. The second is about the Flag of the Ukrainian Insurgent Army. They do not demonstrate that GNG support keeping this subject. —Michael Z. 14:05, 19 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. And I support the renaming proposal. Suitskvarts (talk) 14:28, 18 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. This is the only page where we can keep these flags. Unless we make a "List of Flags of Kherson Oblast" etc etc solely for the purpose of transferring over the contents of this article. Scu ba (talk) 17:50, 18 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Such a list would still have to satisfy WP:LISTN. Keeping these flags is a task for a hobbyist blog, not for the encyclopedia, per WP:NOTREPOSITORY. —Michael Z. 14:01, 19 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
