The Albanian Kingdom existed de facto only between 1928 and 1939. For the Italian rule in Albania, I suppose we need to have another article encompassing years 1939 to 1943.-- Albanian since Stone Age 17:43, 28 April 2007 (UTC) reply

Fair use rationale for Image:Flag of the Albanian Republic.gif

Image:Flag of the Albanian Republic.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image pagespecifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

De facto Italian protectorate?

The article fails to mention how, exactly, Albania was de facto Italian protectorate. I don't think, that even significant Italian economic influence actually makes Albania a protectorate. There has to be more substantial base for such a claim. 128.214.145.20 ( talk) 13:47, 15 January 2013 (UTC) reply

it was a political protectorate under the rule of the Kiprrrrrng of Italy.

Flag

The flag shown on the article depicts Skanderbeg's helmet above the double headed eagle, yet if you read the source attached (The Fundamental Statute) it describes the flag as simply "red, with a double-headed black eagle in the centre". What is the justification for using the flag that is currently there instead of the simple red with black eagle? AOCsuperfan ( talk) 17:03, 17 April 2023 (UTC) reply

The flag can be seen in many photography and footage, especially ones featuring the Albanian military. PrincLeka1914 ( talk) 20:12, 17 April 2023 (UTC) reply

Royal symbols

@ Vif12vf: You mentioned the current "fictional" flag (that lacks a source) looks as "it should be" on Wikipedia. What do you mean by that? And how does that differ from the other "officially sourced" flag? And since you didn't object regarding the coat of arms, why did you remove it? Kj1595 ( talk) 22:09, 20 May 2023 (UTC) reply

The flags are literally the same but one is made to look more realistic, like a photo of a real flag. We normally use "flat" flags, as they are apparently called. There is no reason why this article should be any different from the rest. Vif12vf/Tiberius ( talk) 01:20, 21 May 2023 (UTC) reply
