Developer documentation
How this template works
- Template:Flag takes the input parameter and calls a sub-template at "Template:Flag/X". For example,
{{flag|united nations}}will call Template:Flag/united nations. - This sub-template then in turn calls Template:Flag icon, supplying it with a single parameter (
{{Flag icon|X}}). For example, Template:Flag/united nations supplies Template:Flag icon with the single parameterUnited Nations - Template:Flag icon calls for a flag image at "File:Flag of X.png", and applies formatting such as sizing and a 1px border. For example, if Template:Flag icon is given the parameter
United Nations, it will supply File:Flag of United Nations.png (Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination).
- Many of the sub-templates (such as the abbreviations and alternate names) are simple redirects to a primary sub-template. For example, Template:Flag/un, Template:Flag/global, Template:Flag/international and Template:Flag/world all redirect to Template:Flag/united nations. Template:Flag/united nations is the primary sub-template which then calls Template:Flag icon.
How to add a flag
If you wish to add a flag, the following requirements must be followed:
Image size
- Width: equal or less than 23px
- Height: equal or less than 15px
- Aspect ratio: retained from source flag
If your flag is a custom flag (e.g.
Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination
), we recommend a 23x15px flag which has a 2:3 ratio.
Upload
- Your flag should be uploaded to
File:Flag of ProperFlagName.png, whereProperFlagNameis the full name of your flag with correct capitalization - Make sure you add your flag image to Category:Flag Images.
Update templates
- Create a template at
Template:Flag/lowercaseflagname, wherelowercaseflagnameis the full name of your flag in complete lowercase. This template should contain the code below:
{{Flag icon|'''ProperFlagName'''}}<noinclude>[[Category:Flag sub-templates]]</noinclude>
- Create a template at
Template:Flag/abbr, whereabbris the lowercase abbreviation of your flag. This template should be a simple redirect to the primary sub-template (Template:Flag/lowercaseflagname)- If your template has any alternate names or abbreviations, create them as simple redirects to the primary sub-template as well
- Add your flag to the correct table in the documentation template.
