Template:Flag displays a parameter defined flag icon that is 15px high and bordered. This template is used in conjunction with Template:Flag/Terms, which defines the terms that can be used in this template. All of the flag images used in this template can be found at Category:Flag Icons.
Usage
{{flag|name}}
name
This is the only parameter in the template and is used for defining which country's information should be used.
- The data entered here will provide the icon with its image and caption/tool tip text.
- Appropriate settings for this parameter are listed in the table below.
- Any text entered should be fully lowercase.
- Any special characters (å,é,ì,ô,ū) are not used as they conflict with the wiki's file retrieving system.
- If there is no setting or the setting is invalid (i.e. not listed in the table below) the template will display a placeholder flag, Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination. This is used to keep alignment proper in other templates or to indicate an unknown country.
