There is no need to display the Moldavian SSR flag in an article about about Transnistria's flag. Even though the two very much resemble each other, we already have a link to the separate article about the MSSR flag so anyone who needs to see what that flag looks like is just one click away. Appropriate content should be sorted into appropriate categories. - Mauco 23:57, 15 April 2006 (UTC)
Even though the article text makes it clear that two versions of the flag are flown in Transnistria, this was not immediately clear at first glance from looking at the two images. To confirm with other flag related entries, I've now reworded the captions to clarify this. - Mauco 00:01, 16 April 2006 (UTC)
The phrasing of this article is confusing and needs to be cleaned up. It seems to say that the MSSR flag did not include the hammer and sickle (not true). But may have been intended to be taken to mean that the PMR state flag does not include the hammer and sickle (also not true). Interestingly, I’ve read some sources that mention that the PMR flag as adopted shortly after the declaration of sovereignty did not include the hammer and sickle. I have not seen the legislation (if it exists), however, and would not make this claim in the article.
I wanted to ask before I make any changes whether anyone knows if there are any differences between the PMR flag as adopted in 2000 and the flag of the MSSR?
Also, as a humorous note, it seems that the hammer and sickle is missing from the specifications for the flag provided for English-speakers on pridnestrovie.net. Intentionally no doubt! Jamason 16:39, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
In this article, we find two versions of the law: First of all "the 2000 law about state symbols", second, "the law as of March 16, 2006". The link for the second didn't work on September 9, 2008 and I wonder what is the difference between 2000 and 2006 version? Rettile 07:24, 10 September 2008 (UTC)
Hello,
Article Flag of Transnistria states that the current flag was adopted in 2000, using a version of the 1952-1990 flag used by the Moldavian SSR. Transnistria split from Moldova in 1990.
The article does not mention which flag was used between 1990 and 2000. Is anyone able to put this information in the article? Place Clichy ( talk) 13:48, 14 December 2015 (UTC)

The lede describes "three EQUAL horizontal bands...", and yet depictions show the horizontal width to be about 1/3 narrower for the green band. All images seem to agree. In the white-blue-red variant, however, the bands DO seem equal. rags ( talk) 15:33, 21 January 2019 (UTC)
Also, the green used is quite different from that used in, for example, African and South American flags: THEIR green is a somewhat brighter, "warmer" green. Is this green specified in the Act, or is it only customary?
I took a look at the flag of the Moldavian Soviet Socialist Republic and noticed that this flag is noticeably darker than the one in use in Transnistria. Has the colour change officially been changed to a brighter shade or is this rather a mistake by the user who uploaded it? As far as I know, Transnistria adopted the flag of the Moldavian SSR as it was. If it was never changed, is is the flag of the Moldavian Soviet Socialist Republic that should be used.

While I agree with the sentiment of splitting the article into one section for Transnistria (the "Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic") and the Moldovan equivalent Administrative-Territorial Units of the Left Bank of the Dniester (mouthful of a name), but considering that the latter section simply describes the Flag of Moldova as Moldova has not designed/adopted a flag for this region, I think it'd be better to revert the article to the previous structure which was only about the Transnistrian flag and its variants.
If Moldova does adopt a design for its legally recognized administration of the Transnistria region, then I'd be more than happy to split the article similar to how Flag of Abkhazia is split as Georgia has its own flag design for the region, but I think there is little benefit to the current article structure here. There is precedent for only describing the flag of the unrecognized polity absent any equivalent internationally recognized flag; the Flag of Western Sahara article used to be 50% about the SADR flag and 50% about the Flag of Morocco, but this is no longer the case because there was no Moroccan version of the Western Sahara flag, just as there is no Moldavian version of the Transnistrian flag, so it is redundant to describe the internationally recognized national flag here.
