I've removed the pronounciation of the canton in other languages because (i) I don't think it really belongs here; (ii) I think it distracts from the rest. Kokiri 23:19, 7 Jan 2004 (UTC)

Maybe we could limit the inclusion of "Tessin" to "(Tessin is the name in French and German)" or remove Tessin entirely, afterall local language is Italian (mostly). -- User:Docu

Why is the comment about German being removed? --Golbez 21:13, Oct 9, 2004 (UTC)

Because German is not used in Ticino. The language is Italian and the fact that some German speaking tourist are present in summer doesn't make German a used language. English is used everywhere there are tourist but I don't think that it is appropriate to state that in every article related to tourism. --Matteo 11:41, 2005 Apr 29 (UTC)

Do the inhabitants of Bosco Gurin (Ticino) still speak German as their first language?Sluzzelin 17:44, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

This is not the flag of the canton but the coat of arm. The tessin flag is divised horizontaly and the coat of arm verticaly (same for other Swiss cantons).

You are right. I corrected the flag, which is now rotated. I also corrected the colors (see the image description for details) --Matteo 12:16, 2005 Apr 29 (UTC)

Since the new template uses the coat of arm I corrected it with the right colors (as I did for the flag). The Image page is OK but I still see the old one here. Does anyone know why?Matteo 19:32, 2005 May 5 (UTC)

I think you need to wait a little bit until the cache updates the thumbnail. It always happens when you overwrite an image. Nova77 00:57, 6 May 2005 (UTC)
