Since I have helped you, I will leave it to somebody else to judge whether or not it is a valuable image. I hope that this helps you. Martinvl (talk) 15:28, 19 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment The fact that a particular image is most used is irrelevant to determining whether it's the best in scope. Resolution is not very relevant, either, as Valued Image Candidates rules require us to judge each photo at review size. So I am still confused about how we can fairly judge seemingly identical images of the flag and find one best in scope. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 22:46, 20 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Info @Ikan Kekek: I am posting on behalf of @Aurelio de Sandoval: . There are 47 images in the Category:National flag of Mexico. Of these, only 17 are in .SVG format - the preferred format for vector images. Nine are not recangular, leaving eight files. Of these eight, only three show the correct badge in the centre of the flag in colour. One of the remaining three is in a 2:3 format while the other two follow the 4:7 layout specified in Mexican legislation. The main differnece between the two is that one has a border whle the other does not. Since it is easier to add a border than to remove it, I go for the one without the border. Furthermore the descrption of the one without the border gives a full details of the relevant Mexican legislation, including Pantone data. Finally, in the event of a tie, the fineness of the detail should come into play as a tie-breaker. Again, in this instance the nominated file wins.

  • Nah, forget that remark. I just looked through the files, based on the remarks above. I'm ready to support this one as best in scope, but since there are various types of Mexican flags, I think the scope should specify that this is the "current version, approved [year number]". -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 12:12, 22 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
