The flag of Navassa Island is simply the United States flag. It does not have a "local" flag or "unofficial" flag; it is an uninhabited island. The version with a profile view was based on Flags of the World and as a fictional design has no status warranting a place on any Wiki.

The person quoted on that page has no authority to bestow a flag, "unofficial" or otherwise, on the island.
