	22:23, 28 November 2021	900 × 600 (788 bytes)	MapGrid	Adding one significant digit to star coordinates. This is only for the sake of being consistent with File:Flag of Namibia (vertical).svg.
	22:59, 20 September 2019	900 × 600 (793 bytes)	MapGrid	Kept the clip path but restored the old viewBox. Restored newline characters to make the source more readable. Restored the old comment showing the calculation for the star's y coordinate. Painted outside of sun as a single path. Reverted other so called "optimizations and fixes" added in the previous image because they were causing unnecessary file bloat.
	17:33, 19 September 2019	900 × 600 (1 KB)	FDRMRZUSA	Simplified svg internal structure (truncated "white-edged red diagonal band" in excess of flag border by "clip" function of "Inkscape": better flag management). Same file and same image. Optimized and fixed svg code before upload. No other changes.
