English: The Black & Silver flag is a proposed alternative New Zealand flag submitted for the Flag Consideration Process in 2015-2016. It is the culmination of over thirty years work by John Ansell, with more recent involvement by Kenneth Wang and Grant McLachlan. John Ansell's flag design won him a Colenso Scholarship to New York in 1986 and in 1990 came second out of 600 alternative flag designs in a Listener contest to mark New Zealand’s sesquicentennial.
This flag is fictitious, proposed, or locally used unofficially. It has not been adopted in an official capacity, and although it may be named as if it was an official flag of a geographical or other entity and have some visual elements that are similar to official logos or flags of that entity, it does not have any official recognition. A flag of this type should not be added to any articles or pages unless it is officially proposed by a government agency, covered by the media, or sees notable local use.
