    Flag of Falun Gong

    Falun Gong
    Request
    Hi! Today I'm asking for someone to kindly vectorize the flag of the new religious movement Falun Gong. The flag can be seen here https://www.fotw.info/flags/cn_falun.html. The flag taller than wide and has a light-blue background. The logo of Falun Gong is near the center of the flag but is slightly closer to the top. Below the logo, and further to the bottom to the top, are three Chinese characters that make up the group's motto and below them, the translations of those characters. On the left is the character "真" and below it is the translation "Truthfulness". In the middle is the character "善" and below it "Benevolence". On the right, the character "忍" and below it, "Forbearance". Can someone please do it? I'll be grateful to see it done. Thanks in advance! -- 109.77.208.221 (talk) 20:05, 13 July 2025 (UTC)Reply
    This isn't their flag; a quick search shows they use a variety of flags and banners, primarily at demonstrations. What you're showing is based on a photo from a reporter from 2000. Currently, I see a variety of flags, mostly in the traditional Chinese style (colored triangles with sharp edges) and full of various inscriptions. I can create this graphic, but I don't see a use for it. If you're interested, look for something more standard. Swiãtopôłk (talk) 19:30, 28 July 2025 (UTC)Reply
    Ok then. You can do the flag if you like. I just took this request from a list made by User:Germenfer of flags needing vectorization by found by clicking here. I was just trying to take some off the list. Thanks for reading!!! --51.37.55.11 (talk) 15:44, 29 July 2025 (UTC)Reply

      Cellular respiration - mitochondrion

    Cellular respiration
    Request
    The red box at the bottom right below the mitochondrion says "6 H2O", which might be confusing especially since the equation is very small and says "½O2 + 2H+ + 2e−", when we know that one O2 becomes two H2O. My request is to forego the "½O2" (make it whole), make the "2" protons and electrons into "4" instead (because the electron transport chain already has two "2e−"s coming together before this point), and make it so that 6 O2 results into 12 H2O instead of 6. -- CheckNineEight (talk) 05:09, 27 July 2025 (UTC)Reply

    What about other multipliers e.g. for ATP, Pyruvic acid and CO2. Do other items e.g. glucose and acetyle need multipliers introduced? cmɢʟee⎆τaʟκ 12:07, 27 July 2025 (UTC)Reply
    Good catch! The whole thing is for one glucose, so it's good as is. "Acetic acid" should rather be "Acetate", and it is 2x – same goes for Acetyl CoA. And "Pyruvic acid" should actually be "Pyruvate". So, from one pyruvate to a complete citric acid cycle, that gives off 3 CO2; there's two of them in the diagram, so that equals 6. CheckNineEight (talk) 12:32, 27 July 2025 (UTC)Reply
    If so, as a layperson, having a number before unfamiliar terms like "Acetyl CoA" might cause me to think that there's a substance named "2 Acetyl CoA", like "2-propanol". As such, I think the current multipliers are clearer. cmɢʟee⎆τaʟκ 14:05, 27 July 2025 (UTC)Reply
    Alright. (And, I mean, the original already has "2 pyruvate" in it; and I doubt that confusion can happen, because there's no hyphen between the number and the word.) How about using "(2x)" in parentheses and an X or a multiply symbol, placed either before or after the substance name? That, or it was probably meant to be interpreted as taking from one pyruvate anyway, but then "6 CO2" wouldn't make sense in that case. CheckNineEight (talk) 15:01, 27 July 2025 (UTC)Reply
    Yes, the 2 pyruvate might also mislead (I suppose having 2 arrows pointing to it alleviates it a bit). I don't know of a good solution. "(2x)" would lead to inconsistencies with H2O etc and having it on all might be excessive. Perhaps a question for Wikipedia:Reference_desk/Science? cmɢʟee⎆τaʟκ 22:53, 27 July 2025 (UTC)Reply
    I think two arrows should do it. CheckNineEight (talk) 23:05, 27 July 2025 (UTC)Reply
    I mean it's not that complicated. Do we really need to go to the reference desk? It's a straightforward thing to resolve. Just double the arrows between "pyruvic acid", "acetic acid" and citric acid cycle; or better yet, let's just stick to the original plan of just correcting "6 H2O" into "12 H2O" and changing the equation (½O2 + 2H+ + 2e−) accordingly. CheckNineEight (talk) 00:06, 30 July 2025 (UTC)Reply
    The labels must be consistent. We can't change just one part and leave other multipliers which matter.
    There's also a mix of processes (glycolysis and citric acid cycle) and substances (glucose, NADH, FADH2 and acidic acid). Wouldn't the latter now require a multiplier of 2? cmɢʟee⎆τaʟκ 14:02, 31 July 2025 (UTC)Reply
    Sorry for the late response here, I got distracted and immediately procrastinated. Like I said before, the whole diagram is for 1 glucose, so it shouldn't get a multiplier. The ATP outputs are accurate (2 each from glycolysis and citric acid cycle). Glycolysis also makes 2 NADH, oxidation of pyruvate into acetate in this case makes 2 (1 ×2) and citric acid cycle in this case makes 6 (3 × 2); in total, that makes 10. FADH2 is not produced anywhere in the cycle because that's actually a cofactor of Complex II (which is implied or vaguely depicted in the electron transport chain); this should actually be ubiquinol, and in this case 2 (1 × 2) is made here. Both NADH and ubiquinol carry 2e− each, totalling 24e−. O2 input remains the same (24÷4=6), and that converts to 12 H2O (6×2=12).
    TLDR
    • 10 NADH
    • FADH2 2 Ubiquinol
    • 2 pyruvic acid 2 pyruvates
    • acetic acid 2 acetates
    • 12 H2O (from 6 O2 + 24e− + 24H+)

    Create the icon going to be used in the 2017 wikitext editor (CodeMirror extension) to go on MediaWiki and Wikipedia? Look at details on Phabricator: T174145. -- waddie96 ★ (talk) 20:45, 4 August 2025 (UTC)Reply
    Discussion
    @Waddie96: Unsure what is being requested: do you want someone to redesign the highlighter icon? cmɢʟee⎆τaʟκ 23:06, 4 August 2025 (UTC)Reply
    Yes the highlighter icon. Per T174145:

    CodeMirror uses the 'highlight' icon from the Wikimedia Design standard set (cdxIconHighlight in Codex, highlight in OOUI).
    It is moderately similar to the 'edit' icon from the same set (cdxIconEdit in Codex, edit in OOUI), and might be confusing to some users.

    The icon should have the same size like all other icons in a tool bar.

    The mental link between a marker pen and syntax highlighting requires people to know about marker pens. Young people may be far off from old fashioned paperwork, they should not paint their laptop screens with neon pens. In many countries marker pens may be less common than for some business people or U.S. students.
    Still all marker pen icons do look to me like pencils, and the headline of this task is describing the problem: I cannot distinguish edit icons from syntax highlighting.

    while i:

    cmɢʟee⎆τaʟκ 09:55, 5 August 2025 (UTC)Reply
    It syntax highlights JavaScript, json, html, wikitext, php, etc. I'm afraid that the highlight symbol mentioned is maybe just as general as the current icon:  . What do you think? @Cmglee waddie96 ★ (talk) 10:12, 5 August 2025 (UTC)Reply
    A comment I've seen is that it looks like a box-cutter, so suggested an alternative. cmɢʟee⎆τaʟκ 10:16, 5 August 2025 (UTC)Reply
    Hmm it has to go on quite a small icon no bigger than 20x20px if not 18x18px, isn't that too detailed. waddie96 ★ (talk) 10:12, 5 August 2025 (UTC)Reply
     
    See the Syntax button at the top, it'll replace the symbol. waddie96 ★ (talk) 10:15, 5 August 2025 (UTC)Reply
    I suppose use of colour is out then. cmɢʟee⎆τaʟκ 10:17, 5 August 2025 (UTC)Reply
    I feel that using a highlighter is one step removed from the intention. Though it's called "syntax highlighting", people don't literally use a highlighter to highlight semantically different parts of code, even on paper printouts. I think it's better to show what it actually does: modify the display of certain characters.
    Perhaps find a few characters common to the languages e.g. i="1" and style them differently (bold, italics, reverse video etc, if it has to be monochromatic)? cmɢʟee⎆τaʟκ 10:23, 5 August 2025 (UTC)Reply
     
    If the idea is something like the highlighter icon, then perhaps an icon like this: Hogweard (talk) 19:21, 5 August 2025 (UTC)Reply
     
    Or if you need something black and white, inspired by that monkey with a magnifying glass, and referring to highlighting, there could be this one: Hogweard (talk) 15:03, 7 August 2025 (UTC)Reply
