    (Added the weird rule about specific flag width requirements, it's a weird rule since the site handles auto sizing anyway.)
    Line 34:
    Include a pride flag if one exists.
    *Do not link to a flag - the image must appear on the page. The main image should appear at the top of the page. If there are many flags/images, a gallery section may be created (above the resource section) for alternate flags and images.
    *High quality PNGs are preferred. Images must be sized such that their longest side is either 180 pixels (the default for uploaded images) or 220 pixels, no other sizes are allowed except in special cases.
    *Do not add flags that are specifically for sub-groups in the article (eg: do not add a transgender lesbian flag on the lesbian page, any flags on that page should primarily be for lesbians, ''not'' for specific sub-groups of lesbians). This includes flags for LGBT+ sub-groups based on ethnicity, nationality, religion, politic affiliation, or ideologies. Any flags or alternate flags added to a page must represent the ''entire'' group that the article is about, or at the least an ''extremely'' large and significant part of the group (see: butch lesbian flag on the [[butch]] page). Some exceptions to this rule exist in ''specific'' special cases.
    *All images must be captioned; captions should be written in full sentences and the first word must be capitalized.
    Line 49 ⟶ 48:
    *An alternate text description is optional, but is recommended to increase the accessibility of our wiki to individuals who use screen readers.
    *If you wish to add an alternate text description of a flag do so in an object manner, and as concisely as possible. Do not go into exact detailed/geometric descriptions of flags unless the flag has particularly unusual shapes that cannot be described any other way.
    *When listing stripes colors the colors should always be listed top to bottom on horizontal flags and left to right on vertical flags. Do not use excessively fancy color words unless necessary.
