I dont necessarily disagree with that but there are probably a ton of future indigenous flags to be added so I say that the blackfoot section be incorporated into the current section. In the future im assuming an entire new article will need to be created to show all of the flags.

The pale is not square and therefore I think you were correct to remove the term "Canadian pale". However, I have to ask if there is a standard interpretation when an ratio is applied to a pale? I could not find any other examples of this. In this case we have:

Hi. While I do think this might be a good idea, it isn't my input here that counts. You might want to contact the main editors of this group of articles, and ask for their ideas. Consensus is key in big decisions like these.

Because Blackfoots is a confederation of 4 nations (Kainai Nation, Piikani Nation, Siksika Nation and Piegan Blackfeet in USA) each has its own flag, and the first tablet contains entire nations (all

When comparing the width of the pale to the width of either coloured bar there is indeed a ratio of 3:2, but I am not entirely convinced this is what you were trying to imply.

While we're on that topic, the list of Indigenous flags is getting quite long. I've proposed to split it into its own list.
