From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The four large stars in the Southern Cross are described as: "Outer diameter 3/14 length of flag". Shouldn't that be 1/14, not 3/14? Note that 1/14 is consistent with the body of the article, which says these stars have an outer diameter equal to 1/7 of the flag's width (same as 1/14 of the length). Also, 3/14 of the length would be almost 1/4 of the length, or almost half the width, which would obviously be way too big. Richwales 04:22, 10 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Delta Crucis Position

The description of the position for delta crucis is identical to that of alpha crucis. I am not sure what the correct figures are.

[edit] Flag spec

Compare with http://www.diggerhistory.info/images/flags/flag-specs.jpg which seems to be more sensible. (From http://www.diggerhistory.info/pages-flags/australian_flag.htm. -- SGBailey 13:48, 10 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Star sizes

The text that describes the sizes of the stars is incorrect. Alpha, Beta, Delta and Gamma Crucis should be labelled with an outer diameter of 1/14 of the flag's length (not 3/14).
