Poor page

This article, copied from offcuts from Black banner (I believe with no discussion), is un-encyclopedic. Its title is POV and it lacks citations. The flag described here is basically the shahada on a black background, and variations thereof. These are used in some non-jihadist contexts, and several jihadist groups (including Shia jihadist groups) use totally different flags. There is no "jihadist flag" in ordinary usage. I believe the content is better covered in the shahada, Islamic flags and Black banner articles and/or a specific ISIL flag article. I will propose name change or deletion unless there is strong support here for this article. BobFromBrockley (talk) 13:24, 15 April 2021 (UTC)

I would go a step further, and state that there is no such a thing as the "Flag of Jihad", nor any derivative of that phrase, like "Jihadist flag" - it's a meme, yes, but also complete fabrication. BobFromBrockley, if you don't mind, I changed your POV temp. into Accuracy disputed, however, you can always change it back if wish.--౪ Santa ౪99° 21:20, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
