In FF 93.0 and 94.0 and Chrome 95

Both show white. Mouse over, the chequerboard appears

And both are using the identical image.. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/6d/Loon_Arms.svg/1090px-Loon_Arms.svg.png

No, in commons it looks like white background, but it's a transparency on the page background. In dewiki it's white background on white page background. Change css page background color to see the difference.

To show it using dark background: in commons:

In dewiki:

use newest Chrome or Firefox browser

"Newest" is relative. Please always provide exact version information so others don't have to guess - thanks!

both the background colors should be shown transparent, because it is transparent

That is the case here, running Firefox 94.0 on Fedora while being logged in:

Whatever the problem is, it is not default server-side.

@Aklapper But I have shown one contribution before, that there is a non transparent background in dewiki when mouse not over, and there's not such background in commons. Why is there a difference?

Sorry, no idea - custom add-ons or extensions in the web browser, gadgets or user scripts, maybe something else. A good question for a support forum instead...
