Aspect ratio[edit]

Shouldn't this flag have an aspect ratio of 3:5 instead of 2:3 ? - Quistnix 17:46, 22 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Since there doesn't seem to be any official specification in Togo law (that I've found), I went with 1:618, which is apparently what the flag's designer used. ¦ Reisio 19:52, 22 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

In that case, most flag databases are wrong? - Quistnix 20:23, 23 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Can happen. ;) —Nightstallion (?) 20:45, 23 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Well it's apparently officially undefined, so it's a gray area and it's to be expected people seeing the flag would generalize it as 3:5. They can't really be completely wrong unless there's an official definition, but I'd say they're less accurate than ours now (although the star dimensions & placement are still vague). :) ¦ Reisio 20:54, 23 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
The ratio of the flag image at FOTW has been 3:2 (324:216 pixels tg.gif) since 2000. The text there mentions that the designer wanted the golden ratio, but does that make it so? I can't find any evidence of that that predates the 2006 change here. There is a 2011 book that repeats it, but they probably got that from here or from en.wp.

Colours[edit]

The Pantone colours does not seem to be correct. Are there any verification on this? throttler 03:25, 05 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
