@Durranistan: As said by ABG, it is a MOS problem, but also a sourcing problem. If you use a picture to establish that the flag is still in use, that’s WP:OR. And if the picture is two years old, you can’t establish it’s use for for 2024. Rsk6400 (talk) 15:45, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Additionally, since User:Rsk6400 claims that there is no use of the flag in 2024, here is the link of the website of the Head of the Donetsk People's Republic: https://denis-pushilin.ru/. This website is regularly updated with news of government business and clearly displays the usage of the flag and coat of arms.
This is the official website of the Government of the DPR. It is regularly updated and features the flag and coat of arms, specifically in reporting of recent events.
The same address is verified by the Library of Congress. [[2]]
I don't understand what User:Rsk6400's issue is with the flag and coat of arms. Other pages regarding the 4 disputed regions on Wikipedia have flags and coat of arms, just as every federal subject does. The DPR did not magically cease to use their government's symbols, as evidenced by all of the links that I have posted. Mysteriousgadfly (talk) 23:02, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I have restored the items per the MOS referenced, with the two items under discussion being the likely to be seen at a glance and likely expected by readers. Traditionally we have had such information for all polities that have them, the recent exception from RfC was for micronations, and this is not one of those.

The territorial control map should be deleted as this article is about an entity that exists under Russian law, not about the military situation on the territory of the DPR. The territorial control vs. claimed territory distinction can be made by using a lighter shade of red on the map of the Russian federal subjects just below the current territorial control map.
