ويكيبيديا:WikiProject Flag Template

من ويكيبيديا، الموسوعه الحره
Shortcuts

This WikiProject is responsible for the template system used to create Flag icons, with or without associated wikilinks. This project is only concerned with the implementation of these templates.

Main templates

[تعديل]

قالب:Flag icon

[تعديل]

Produces a small image of the named Flag. The image has a link to the article associated with the Flag.

Example: <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of Japan.svg|23x15px|border |alt=Japan|link=Japan]]</span> → Japan

قالب:Flag

[تعديل]

Produces a small image of the named Flag, plus a wikilink to the associated article. The icon image does not have a link (unlike Flag icon) so that screen readers do not render the name twice.

Example: <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of the United Kingdom.svg|23x15px|border |alt=|link=]]&nbsp;</span>[[المملكه المتحده|United Kingdom]] →  United Kingdom

قالب:Flagu

[تعديل]

Similar to Flag, but the associated country name is unlinked. This template should be used in articles with WP:OVERLINK concerns (e.g. when the same Flag is used many times in a single table).

Example: <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of the United States.svg|23x15px|border |alt=|link=]]&nbsp;</span>[[امريكا|United States]] →  United States


قالب:علم بلد

[تعديل]

Similar to Flag, but always uses the preferred display text for the wikilinked article. Useful when the input parameter can be a country code, or is a long-form country name because it links to a different article, such as for a historical country.

Examples:<span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of Italy (1861-1946) crowned.svg|23x15px|border |alt=|link=]]&nbsp;</span>[[مملكه ايطاليا|Kingdom of Italy]] →  Kingdom of Italy
<span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of Bangladesh.svg|23x15px|border |alt=|link=]]&nbsp;</span>[[بانجلاديش|BAN]] →  BAN
<span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of the Philippines.svg|23x15px|border |alt=|link=]]&nbsp;</span>[[الفيليبين|PHI]] →  PHI

Compare with Flag, which always uses the first parameter as display name (unless when overridden with [[#name|name]]):

  • <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of Italy (1861-1946) crowned.svg|23x15px|border |alt=|link=]]&nbsp;</span>[[مملكه ايطاليا|Kingdom of Italy]] →  Kingdom of Italy
  • <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of Bangladesh.svg|23x15px|border |alt=|link=]]&nbsp;</span>[[بانجلاديش|BAN]] →  BAN


قالب:علم ديكو

[تعديل]

Displays a Flag of the named parameter in "icon" size, currently 23x15 pixels plus a one pixel border. This template is very similar to قالب:Flag icon, except the image is not linked to an article, i.e. it is "purely decorative" per World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG). This template can be used when the article text immediately adjacent to the icon provides the associated link for the Flag.

Usage examples

"Shortcut" Flag templates

[تعديل]

Many countries also have individual Flag templates, named using standard three letter country codes so as to offer "shortcut" alternatives to the standard templates. This is a mixed blessing; some country codes (like "USA") are widely known and the corresponding shortcut templates (i.e. [[ملف:Flag of United States.svg|20px|border]]&nbsp;[[امريكا]]) offer convenience, but some country codes are relatively obscure, so wiki markup would likely be clearer if the country names were spelled out in full. Also, the shortcut templates do not offer the ability to use historical Flag variants (described below), and are therefore less flexible.

Example: [[ملف:Flag of Belgium.svg|20px|Belgique]]&nbsp;[[بلجيكا]] → Belgique بلجيكا (equivalent to <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of Belgium (civil).svg|23x15px|border |alt=|link=]]&nbsp;</span>[[بلچيكا|Belgium]])

See Wikipedia:Inline templates linking country articles for a complete list.

List

[تعديل]

Besides the ones mentioned above, many other Flag templates exist. This (probably incomplete) list excludes the military (see #Military Flag templates) and sports templates (see #National sport team Flag templates). See each template's documentation for more details.

Template Description Example
{{علم}} Unlinked icon with country link {{Flag|موناكو}} ←  موناكو
{{Flagbig}} Large Flag icon; name and icon separated by line break {{Flagbig|موناكو}} ←
موناكو
{{Flagc}} Icon links to file description page (for attribution) {{Flagc|موناكو}} ←  موناكو
{{Flagcountry}} Displays default country name instead of first parameter {{Flagcountry|MON}} ←  موناكو
{{Flagdeco}} Unlinked Flag icon only {{Flagdeco|موناكو}} ←
{{Flag icon}} Icon only, linked to country page {{Flag icon|موناكو}} ← موناكو
{{Flagg}} The most general Flag template; many different output formats are possible depending on first parameter {{Flagg|isb|موناكو}} ←  Flag of موناكو
{{Flaglink}} Changes the link to one with text after the country name {{Flaglink|موناكو|in the Eurovision Song Contest}} ←  موناكو
{{Flag+link}} Changes the link to one with text before the country name, with existence check {{Flag+link|History of|موناكو}} ←  موناكو
{{Flaglist}} Aligns country names correctly in vertical lists {{Flaglist|موناكو}} ← موناكو
{{Flagof}} Links to the article on the country's Flag {{Flagof|موناكو}} ←  موناكو
{{Flagright}} Icon after name {{Flagright|موناكو}} ←  موناكو
{{Flagu}} Unlinked country name {{Flagu|موناكو}} ←  موناكو
Extracts one or more data field values from a template {{getalias|موناكو|Flag}} ← موناكو

The following templates do not technically use the Flag template system, but are used similarly:

Template Description Example
{{flagicon image}} Formats a Flag with specified filename similarly to {{Flagdeco}} (for use if no data template exists). {{flagicon image|Lozenge Flag of موناكو.svg}} ← ملف:Lozenge Flag of موناكو.svg
{{noflag}} Returns the first parameter with whitespace to its left, if one entry in a vertical list doesn't/shouldn't have an icon {{<span class="nowrap">&#123;&#123;</span>[[قالب:noflag|noflag]]<span class="nowrap">&#125;&#125;</span>|[[موناكو]]}} ← {{{{noflag}}|موناكو}}

Flag names

[تعديل]

The first (positional) parameter for these templates specifies the country (or other entity) to be used for the Flag image. These actually identify additional templates that individually store information specific to that country. For example, the image name and main article name used by <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of Norway.svg|23x15px|border |alt=|link=]]&nbsp;</span>[[النرويج|Norway]] (to produce  Norway ) is stored in قالب:Country data Norway. The complete set of these "country data" templates is found in Category:Country data templates.

Note that there are country data templates for many entities that are not considered countries, such as international organizations or sub-national entities. The use of "country" in these template names is only because the original implementation of the Flag template system was built upon قالب:Flag A better name might have been "Flag data", but it is likely too late for that change now.

Some examples of non-country Flag templates are:

  • <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of the United Nations.svg|23x15px|border |alt=|link=]]&nbsp;</span>[[الامم المتحده|الامم المتحده]] →  الامم المتحده
  • <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of Europe.svg|23x15px|border |alt=|link=]]&nbsp;</span>[[الاتحاد الاوروبى|الاتحاد الأوروبي]] →  الاتحاد الأوروبي
  • <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of Catalonia.svg|23x15px|border |alt=|link=]]&nbsp;</span>[[Catalonia|Catalonia]] →  Catalonia
  • <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of Canton of Bern.svg|23x15px|border |alt=|link=]]&nbsp;</span>[[كانتون بيرن|Bern]] →  Bern
  • <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of Bangladesh.svg|23x15px|border |alt=|link=]]&nbsp;</span>[[بنغلاديش|بانجلاديش]] →  بانجلاديش


Many country data templates also exist for historical nations, and these can be used to produce the historical Flags with wikilinks to the appropriate articles. Some examples are:

  • <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of Austria-Hungary (1867–1918).svg|23x15px|border |alt=|link=]]&nbsp;</span>[[الامبراطوريه النمساويه المجريه|Austria-Hungary]] →  Austria-Hungary
  • <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of Germany (1935–1945).svg|23x15px|border |alt=|link=]]&nbsp;</span>[[المانيا النازيه|Nazi Germany]] →  Nazi Germany
  • <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of the Soviet Union.svg|23x15px|border |alt=|link=]]&nbsp;</span>[[الاتحاد السوفييتى|Soviet Union]] →  Soviet Union
  • <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of Yugoslavia (1946-1992).svg|23x15px|border |alt=|link=]]&nbsp;</span>[[Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia|Yugoslavia]] →  Yugoslavia


Alias names

[تعديل]

For added convenience, many Flags can be identified by an alias name, typically a three-letter country code. For example, instead of <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of France.svg|23x15px|border |alt=فرنسا|link=فرنسا]]</span>, you could simply use <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of France.svg|23x15px|border |alt=فرنسا|link=فرنسا]]</span> to produce فرنسا.

Alias names are available for almost every nation listed in ايزو 3166-1 الفا-3, the قائمة رموز بلدان اللجنة الأولمبية الدولية, and the لستة كود الفيفا. For example, <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of Germany.svg|23x15px|border |alt=المانيا|link=المانيا]]</span> (ISO) and <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of Germany.svg|23x15px|border |alt=المانيا|link=المانيا]]</span> (IOC and FIFA) both produce المانيا. A small handful of other well-known abbreviations are also available (such as UK, EU, and USSR).

Alias names are implemented as redirects in the template namespace. For example, قالب:Country data VEN is a redirect to قالب:Country data Venezuela. The complete set of these redirects is listed in Category:Country data redirects, and the available alias redirect(s) for a given country data template (if any) are also documented on that template's page.

Please do not create redirect aliases with uncommon abbreviations, especially for countries or regions that do not have standard country codes. Wikicode is much easier to read if the full name is used. Even some of the standard country codes are not widely known!

When using country code aliases, template Flag will display this value for the wikilink's display text. For example:

  • <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of the United States.svg|23x15px|border |alt=|link=]]&nbsp;</span>[[امريكا|امريكا]] →  امريكا
  • <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of the United Kingdom.svg|23x15px|border |alt=|link=]]&nbsp;</span>[[المملكه المتحده|UK]] →  UK


  • <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of the People's Republic of China.svg|23x15px|border |alt=|link=]]&nbsp;</span>[[الصين|CHN]] →  CHN


Note that in each case, the target wikilink points to the correct article name (i.e. امريكا, المملكه المتحده, and الصين, respectively) but the display text matches the input parameter to template Flag. This may be the desired effect, such as in column headings of a large table, but if the full name is wanted, then use قالب:علم بلد instead:

  • <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of the United States.svg|23x15px|border |alt=|link=]]&nbsp;</span>[[امريكا|امريكا]] →  امريكا
  • <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of the United Kingdom.svg|23x15px|border |alt=|link=]]&nbsp;</span>[[المملكه المتحده|UK]] →  UK


  • <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of the People's Republic of China.svg|23x15px|border |alt=|link=]]&nbsp;</span>[[الصين|CHN]] →  CHN


Alias names have a second purpose, which is to provide alternative display text for target wikilinks. For example, the main article linked by قالب:Country data East Germany is المانيا الشرقيه, but قالب:Country data German Democratic Republic is a redirect alias. Therefore, you can use <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of East Germany.svg|23x15px|border |alt=|link=]]&nbsp;</span>[[المانيا الشرقيه|German Democratic Republic]] for  German Democratic Republic . Again, note that the target article name for the generated wikilink is still المانيا الشرقيه.

Flag variants

[تعديل]

Many countries have had different Flag variations at various periods in their history. The Flag template system can accommodate this by storing multiple Flag variants inside country data templates. A specific Flag variant is selected by specifying an additional parameter to any of the standard Flag templates. This parameter is usually given as the second positional parameter to the template, but may also be given as the variant named parameter.

Examples
  • <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of Germany.svg|23x15px|border |alt=|link=]]&nbsp;</span>[[المانيا|Germany]] →  Germany
  • <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of Germany.svg|23x15px|border |alt=|link=]]&nbsp;</span>[[المانيا|Germany]] →  Germany
  • <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of Bangladesh.svg|23x15px|border |alt=|link=]]&nbsp;</span>[[بانجلاديش|Bangladesh]] →  Bangladesh
  • <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of Bangladesh (1971).svg|23x15px|border |alt=بانجلاديش|link=بانجلاديش]]</span> → بانجلاديش
  • <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of Canada (Pantone).svg|23x15px|border |alt=|link=]]&nbsp;</span>[[كندا|كندا]] →  كندا
  • <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Canadian Red Ensign (1921–1957).svg|23x15px|border |alt=كندا|link=كندا]]</span> → كندا

The set of available Flag variants (if any) for a specific country data template are documented on the country data template page itself. Each variant is identified by a short text label, such as empire or 1921 in the examples above. Usually, the label identifies the year in which the Flag was introduced, but this is not a mandatory style convention.

Do not change the name of an existing Flag variant label unless you are absolutely certain it is not in use. These labels are not like article names, where redirects are created when an article is renamed. Changing a Flag variant label will instantly break any current usage of that label.

Other common parameters

[تعديل]

Size

[تعديل]

The default size for all Flag icons created by these templates is 23x15px, with a one pixel border. That is, the icon will be no more than 23 pixels wide, and no more than 15 pixels tall. These dimensions were carefully chosen to generate the best results when Flag icons are used in a bulleted list with the default browser text size. Some countries (mostly those with square or near-square Flags) have different default sizes.

In certain situations, it might be desirable to use a larger (or smaller) size, and this is enabled with the size named parameter, available with all standard templates.

Examples
  • <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of Monaco.svg|23x15px|border |alt=|link=]]&nbsp;</span>[[موناكو|موناكو]] →  موناكو
  • <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of Bangladesh.svg|40px|border |alt=بنغلاديش|link=بنغلاديش]]</span> → بنغلاديش
  • <span style="font-size:85%;"> <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of Belgium (civil).svg|23x15px|border |alt=|link=]]&nbsp;</span>[[بلچيكا|Belgium]] </span> → {{small| Belgium


Name

[تعديل]

The display text of the target wikilink is usually automatically generated, but can always be over-ridden with the name parameter.

Examples
  • <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of South Korea.svg|23x15px|border |alt=|link=]]&nbsp;</span>[[كوريا الجنوبيه|Korea]] →  Korea
(this name is used in several sports)
  • <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of the Republic of China.svg|23x15px|border |alt=|link=]]&nbsp;</span>[[جمهورية الصين|China]] →  China
(China from 1912 to 1949)


Military Flag templates

[تعديل]

قالب:Navy

[تعديل]

Displays the naval ensign of the named country (identified as the naval variant in the corresponding country data template) plus a wikilink to the main article for the country's navy. Note that the naval ensign for many countries is the same as the national Flag. Also note that the WP:SHIPS and WP:MILHIST conventions are to use naval ensigns, not naval jacks when identifying ships with Flag icons.

Examples

  • <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of the United States.svg|22x20px|border |alt=|link=]]</span>&nbsp;[[قوات امريكا البحرية ]] →  قوات امريكا البحرية

قالب:Army

[تعديل]

Displays a country's army or war Flag (the army variant) and a wikilink to the country's army.

Examples

  • <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of the United Kingdom.svg|22x20px|border |alt=|link=]]</span>&nbsp;[[جيش المملكه المتحده ]] →  جيش المملكه المتحده
  • <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of the United States.svg|22x20px|border |alt=|link=]]</span>&nbsp;[[جيش امريكا ]] →  جيش امريكا
  • <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of Bangladesh.svg|22x20px|border |alt=|link=]]</span>&nbsp;[[جيش بانجلاديش ]] →  جيش بانجلاديش

قالب:Air force

[تعديل]

Displays a country's air force Flag (the air force variant) and a wikilink to the country's air force.

Examples

  • <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of the United States.svg|22x20px|border |alt=|link=]]</span>&nbsp;[[قوات امريكا الجوية ]] →  قوات امريكا الجوية

National sport team Flag templates

[تعديل]

One of the most common instances of Flag icon usage on Wikipedia is for national sport teams. Several sets of sport-specific templates have been developed to also use this Flag template system:

These templates have intentionally been given terse names because they tend to be used many, many times on individual pages for match results. They completely supersede a set of previously used national team-specific templates. For example, <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of Italy.svg|23x15px|border |alt=|link=]]&nbsp;</span>[[فريق ايطاليا لكورة القدم|ايطاليا]] replaced [[Image:Flag of Italy.svg|20px|border]] [[فريق ايطاليا لكورة القدم]], <span class="languageicon">(in Russian)</span> replaced {{{NZLru}} <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of Bangladesh.svg|23x15px|border |alt=|link=]]&nbsp;</span>[[ فريق بنغلاديش national cricket team|بنغلاديش]] replaced {{BCB}}, etc.

There are often several template variations available for a given sport:

  • with a "w" suffix, links to women's national team articles instead
  • with a "-rt" suffix, renders the Flag icon to the right of the nation's name instead of to the left. This formatting style is often used in match results
  • with a -big" suffix, renders the Flag icon in larger size and the team name underneath the Flag. This formatting style is often used in tables of tournament results.

For example, for football, the following templates are used:

Team Standard Right Flag Big Flag
Men's national teams {{fb}} {{fb-rt}} {{fb-big}}
Examples  اسبانيا  نيديرلاند
المانيا
Women's national teams {{fbw}} {{ك ق س-يم}} {{fbw-big}}
Examples  اسبانيا نيديرلاند 
المانيا

User preference to disable display of Flag icons

[تعديل]

Users that do not like Flag icons can disable them with a preference setting. A CSS class is used within the internal formatting template, and the class setting can be changed from a user's personal CSS file (skin-specific, cross-skin, or global).

Flag icon image rendering is disabled by: 

.Flag icon { display: none; }

Implementation

[تعديل]

Three types of templates are used by the Flag template system, each with a different function:

  1. User-transcluded templates
  2. Country data templates (internal)
  3. Formatting templates (internal)

For example, <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of Spain.svg|23x15px|border |alt=|link=]]&nbsp;</span>[[اسبانيا|Spain]], uses:

  1. قالب:Flag, to accept input parameters, such as the country name (mandatory) and the optional Flag variant, size, and wikilink display name.
  2. قالب:Country data Spain, to supply the image name and article name
  3. قالب:Country Flag2, to actually render the image icon and wikilink

This system architecture means that:

  • all country-specific data is contained within individual country data templates, improving maintainability
  • the formatting wikicode is centralized in a very small number of templates, ensuring consistency

How it works

[تعديل]

There are three steps in each Flag template invocation. In the previous example of <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of Spain.svg|23x15px|border |alt=|link=]]&nbsp;</span>[[اسبانيا|Spain]], the templates expand as follows:

First, Template:Flag expands to invoke Template:Country data Spain, and ensure that all user-specified parameters are set. The first parameter to the country data template is actually the name of the formatting template. This is the mechanism by which the same country data template can be used with multiple different formatting templates. Therefore, the first step of expansion results in: 

{{معطيات إسبانيا| Flag/core | variant = | size = | name = Spain}}

If the variant (or second positional parameter), the size, and/or name parameters were specified in the user invocation, these would be set to the desired value. For example, <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of Spain.svg|23x15px|border |alt=|link=]]&nbsp;</span>[[اسبانيا|España]] would expand to: 

{{معطيات إسبانيا| Flag/core | variant = 1939 | size = | name = España}}

Next, the country data template expands to invoke the formatting template, plus add all the country-specific parameters. Going back to the simpler example of <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of Spain.svg|23x15px|border |alt=|link=]]&nbsp;</span>[[اسبانيا|Spain]], the second expansion results in: 

{{Country Flag2| alias = Spain | Flag alias = Flag of Spain.svg | name = Spain}}

Lastly, the formatting template is expanded to produce: 

<span class="Flag icon">[[ملف:Flag of Spain.svg|23x15px|border |alt=|link=]]&nbsp;</span>[[اسبانيا]]

Basic country data template structure

[تعديل]

The structure of all country data templates follows a standard pattern, which is extended to include additional parameters only when necessary. The empty boilerplate for all country data templates is as follows: 

{{ {{{1<noinclude>|country showdata</noinclude>}}}
| alias =
| Flag alias =
| size = {{{size|}}}
| name = {{{name|}}}
}}

There are two essential values that must be specified:

  1. The alias value identifies the name of the main article associated with the Flag.
  2. The Flag alias value identifies the image name of the default Flag.

The invocation of country showdata on the first line is used to automatically generate the template documentation, as described below. The {{{1}}} and {{{1}}} statements ensure that any user-specified size and/or name values are passed through from the outer template (Flag, Flag icon, etc.) to the inner formatting template. Omission of these lines from the country data template would cause the size and name functionality to be disabled.

Adding Flag variants

[تعديل]

Additional Flag variants are specified by individual Flag alias statements. The unique label for the variant is the suffix of the parameter name, as Flag alias-''label'' (don't forget the hyphen). For example, قالب:Country data Mexico has several Flag variants, one of which is specified by: 

| Flag alias-1934 = Flag of Mexico (1934-1968).png

Therefore, when <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of Mexico.svg|23x15px|border |alt=|link=]]&nbsp;</span>[[المكسيك|Mexico]] is transcluded, Image:Flag of Mexico (1934-1968).png is rendered. The selection of the Flag variant is coded in the formatting templates.

Country data templates with at least one Flag variant (in addition to the default) must also have the following line: 

| variant = {{{variant|}}}

Similar to the size and name parameters as described above, this statement is required to pass the variant value (e.g. 1934) from the outer Flag template to the inner formatting template. Omission of this line will cause the Flag variant selection to fail.

Disabling image border

[تعديل]

If some Flags are non-standard in shape and a 1px border is undesirable (for example for Nepal), then the border for the main Flag may be defeated by adding the parameter 

|border =

To remove the border for certain variant Flags only, use the pattern |border-variant=, replacing variant with the respective variant label. For example: 

|border-1976 = 
|border-colonial =

Nothing should be added after the equal sign(s). See قالب:بيانات بولاندا for examples of this usage.

Due to the coding of the Flag templates, disabling the border for the main Flag also automatically disables it for all Flag variants. If the main Flag should not have a border but any of the variants should, the respective |border-variant= parameters must be explicitly set to "border" to re-enable the 1px border: 

|border-1976 = border

Changing the wikilink display text

[تعديل]

The best results are obtained when the template name matches the article wikilink (as specified by the alias value). For example, قالب:Country data Russia contains {{{1}}}, which results in a target wikilink to روسيا.

However, there are instances where the main article name contains a disambiguation string. For example, قالب:Country data Georgia contains {{{1}}}. Therefore, <span class="flagicon">[[ملف:Flag of Georgia.svg|23x15px|border |alt=|link=]]&nbsp;</span>[[Georgia (country)|جورجيا]] results in  جورجيا . Note that the wikilink is جورجيا, but the display string is "Georgia", as expected.

In these instances, an additional statement is needed to support قالب:علم بلد properly. The shortname alias parameter should be set to the desired text string, such as {{{1}}}. In effect, the resultant wikilink will be generated as [[''alias''|''shortname alias'']], or [[جورجيا]] in this specific example.

Changing the page being linked to

[تعديل]

The templates {{Flaglink}} and {{Flag+link}} append and prepend text to the link target, respectively. For example, to link to the education system in a table comparing different countries' educational outcomes, use 

{{Flag+link|Education in|Finland}}

Which results in  Finland.

For link targets that do not start or end with the country name, use the {{Flagdeco}} template (which returns an unlinked Flag icon without text) followed by a standard wikilink: 

{{Flagdeco|Finland}} [[Example page|Finland]]

Which would look like this: فينلاندا.

National sport team template parameters

[تعديل]

Any country data template that will be used with a national team template must include an additional "pass-through" parameter: 

| altlink = {{{altlink|}}}

This parameter is used to form the suffix of the associated wikilink. For example, قالب:Cr appends "national cricket team" to the country name (alias value), and this process is enabled by the altlink parameter.

In most cases, the Flag and display name for national teams corresponds to the same Flag and display name normally used for the nation. However, in some instances these can be over-ridden by additional parameters within the country data template. The default wikilink can also be changed in cases where the common naming convention is not used.

Some examples:

In each of these examples, the over-ride parameter (name alias-football, Flag alias-field hockey, or link alias-netball) is identified by a unique per-sport variable that is passed from the appropriate sport team template. For example, قالب:Fb includes {{{1}}}. Therefore, any country data template that utilizes one or more team sport over-ride parameters must also include: 

| altvar = {{{altvar|}}}

Template documentation

[تعديل]

Country data templates "self-document" themselves through قالب:Country showdata. Recall that the first line of each country data template is an invocation to a formatting template, defaulting to country showdata if that parameter is missing: 



For simple country data templates, nothing further needs to be done to document them. If any Flag variants, redirect aliases, etc. are used with the template, they are documented by adding parameters specifically for use by country showdata. These extra parameters are enclosed in a .... section as they should not be present for any other invocation of the country data template.

See قالب:Country showdata/doc for more information about how to document country data templates.
