- Comment Flags and other depictions of the shahada and other Arabic calligraphy are prominent on Commons, many of which contain the same PD-textlogo claim (among many others, see File:Sultan Murat Tümeni Flag.svg, File:Flag of the Turkistan Islamic Party in Syria.svg, File:Flag of the Islamic Renaissance Party of Tajikistan.svg, and even File:Flag of Hamas.svg). While in my personal opinion this claim is justified, as such calligraphy is just text, I'm neither a copyright lawyer nor active enough on Commons to feel I should weigh in in favor of maintaining them. But if the Hayat Tahrir al-Sham flags go, a lot more probably need to as well. Mnmazur (talk) 05:52, 25 February 2024 (UTC)
- Can handwriting be protected by copyright? If not, these flags are in the public domain. -- Le Petit Chat (talk) 13:56, 25 February 2024 (UTC)

Flags should be kept per pd-gov if it applies, otherwise delete per nomination. These are no textlogos. --Krd 07:45, 20 May 2024 (UTC)
- @Krd: Based on en:Tahrir al-Sham, it looks like it's a private militia, not a government organization. The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 15:30, 20 May 2024 (UTC)
Deleted: too complex for textlogo; not a government organization. --Pi.1415926535 (talk) 20:34, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
