current	23:54, 23 March 2023	900 × 600 (28 KB)	Cergun62	Can we permanently lock the flag on this one? The Flag has officially been standardized by the official website saudiflag.sa as can be seen in the attached sources. The same guy keeps coming back to bring a new version and upload it! It’s my own country’s flag and I keep up with its changes. This is the official flag of Saudi Arabia, so please stop changing it every now and then.
