the wiki resp. that you have all my permission to upload my files, even
for commercial purposes.

Greetings again;
Mr. .........
My email content was:
Dear ....
thank you for your positive answer. The problem with uploading your flags
and coats of arms in wikipedia still is, that wikipedia, resp. wiki
commons wants a largely unrestricted copyright, because the principle of
wikipedia is, that it is "open source" content (presumably to avoid lots
of litigation that endangers the project). This also includes use for
commercial purposes which you restricted in the text on your website. The
habit (GNU-liscense) on Wiki Commons is, that it is free also for
commercial use provided that the name of the original author is named.
Wiki Commons is quite strict on these question so I have to ask you again:
would you also agree to this prerequisites?
