isn't the star on the north distrito federal instead of pará?
It represents the equator. When the flag was first adopted Pará was the state with most land north of the equator, so it was chosen to be represented by a star above the band. Later two other states which are still further north, Roraima and Amapá, have been created, but the symbolism of that star was not changed. —Preceding

How could the Christ's Order flag be used in Brazil since the 14th century? Brazil wasn't known to Europeans before Columbus for sure! From searching Google it appears that the flag was used in Portugal, perhaps, but if so the text is misleading. -- Ilya 03:13, 15 Nov 2004 (UTC)
If I'm not mistaken, the Brazilian flag ratio if 14:20, which, although is proportional to 7:10, the flag design uses the "modulo" unit, which is 1/14 of the flag's intended height. Thus, the flag dimensions are 14 modulos x 20 modulos, making 14:20 a more reasonable ratio definition. -- SnowRaptor 03:21, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)
I added flags for some appropriate periods to History of Brazil. There are various more detailed articles which could also use such images. I could not identify relevance of several flag images. ( SEWilco 03:37, 16 August 2005 (UTC))
I find it unappropriate (to say the least) that a flag that was used for 5 days (!!!) gets so much space in this article. LtDoc 23:44, 8 September 2005 (UTC)
"Symbology" is a non-existent, fictional field of study.
Can we come up with some other word?
I changed to symbolism, which I believe is the appropriate term. 189.15.86.176 15:37, 13 July 2007 (UTC)
I have placed some vexillological symbols next to the flag, but not all as I am uncertain which are right.
To hoist the flag vertically, you just turn it 90 degrees clockwise. 191.180.228.127 ( talk) 02:19, 13 November 2015 (UTC)
I will try to find some answers myself, but help is appreciated. Hymyly T @ C 14:02, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
on http://www.worldflags101.com/b/brazil-flag.aspx it says, "Brazilian Flag Meaning: The colors green and yellow represent the Royal Houses of Bragança (Emperor Pedro I) and Habsburg (Empress Leopoldina)[..]" I also read this in a book.
Rui Barbosa was finance and taxation minister, not justice minister, as previously said.
I wonder if order is the best translation of ordem. Maybe what's meant is law. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.189.103.145 ( talk) 00:12, 23 May 2010 (UTC)
I've made some changes to the article to see if we can get it to FA or at least GA. I rewrote the lead and expanded the history section. I also added a construction section and a subsection on the Flag Anthem (since it is directly related to the flag), as well as supporting sources throughout the article. As it stands, I believe we might be able to achieve GA. If anyone has the time to revise the article and improve it in any way that would be awsome. I'm going to ask for a Wikipedia:Peer review to see if we can get any feedback that will help for GAC. Limongi ( talk) 14:55, 10 October 2010 (UTC)
There's a peer review under way for Flag of Brazil. If anyone would like to leave an input, that would be very helpful! Limongi ( talk) 15:08, 10 October 2010 (UTC)
Hi, Brazil flag file has been modified its colours recently; although an official source is quoted, I am afraid it is not correctly assessed that those colours are the right ones to use. Those colours do not match the ones informed in the Colours' section. Furthermore, only the current flag has been changed its colours, none of past flags have been modified. Which colours are correct? The ones of the current flag or the ones of the past flags? Regards, Mxcatania ( talk) 06:07, 10 November 2010 (UTC)
In the section about the stars, the second paragraph begins by saying "I would point out that the stars on the Brazilian flag are never visible as shown, because...". "I" who? WP policy is against articles in the first person. After all, this is not the place for personal views, but for consensus, and anyway the statement is not signed, leaving you to guess who was talking. I submit to you all that the paragraph should be rephrased, but I myself would not know how much of it to keep. Fortunately the paragraph also states that its content comes from a congressional act, so maybe this is just a matter of deleting the whole remark up until "because". I would trace the statement through the History tab until I found out exactly what changes were made and by whom, except that this should prove (1) time-consuming and (2) useless as I am not chasing guilt but improvement. What do you say I remove the sentence portion as I just suggested? SrAtoz ( talk) 15:36, 28 March 2011 (UTC)

Brazil has no official Variant Flag. Therefore, the Monarchist flag should be removed from the Infobox.
Also, Monarchists in Brazil don't constitute a relevant Mainstream Political Movement and the erroneous information in the Infobox makes it sound like they do.
I suggest this page gets locked for anonymous contributions, so Brazilians with pro-Monarchist views can't vandalize it anymore. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2804:14C:B385:69E5:F954:9338:656C:3AAE ( talk) 01:18, 1 January 2017 (UTC)

I just changed a date to dmy to conform with what was in the rest of the section. Then I checked the lead section for a date format tag and found that not only was there none, the lead section uses mdy and has done since the earliest versions of this article... yet most of the rest of the article uses dmy. So it's not clear to me what the consensus is. Hairy Dude ( talk) 00:18, 17 November 2021 (UTC)
