Flag of the Isle of Wight
The Flag of the Isle of Wight was adopted and registered in January 2009. It shows a diamond shape (the island) hovering over ocean waves.
==History==
In 2007 an Isle of Wight Flag Committee was founded to create a flag for the Isle of Wight. The Committee ran a public competition in association with the County Press newspaper to design a flag for the island. They received over 350 entries. These were whittled down to a shortlist of four designs which the public then had an opportunity to vote on. 〔http://www.flaginstitute.org/index.php?location=10&flagtype=county&flagid=108〕
The winning design was by John Graney. It was registered by the Flag Institute on 9 January 2009. Although the Isle of Wight is not a "historical county" in accordance with the Flag Institute's preferred criteria, nevertheless the flag has been described as a "county flag", reflecting the island's distinct identity.
In April 2009 the new flag was officially launched and replaced the older design on top of County Hall.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=All a-flutter - It's the Isle of Wight Flag )〕
