File:Flag of Maldives.svg

I think they need to change protection settings for File:Flag of Maldives.svg to Semi-protection because other country flags like Flag of the United States, Flag of India also have semi-protection and not full protection. Thank you. MAL MALDIVE (talk) 14:32, 17 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
