Template talk:Country flag: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 14:54, 23 May 2007

Alphabetic sorting and code indication

Could an admin (page is locked) take the trouble to:

Sort this list alphabetically by FLAGCODE.
Add {{flag|BE}}
Change {{flag|##}} to ##: {{flag|##}}.

Explanation for the latter: from CAN it doesn't become apparent that you need to type {{flag|CA}} rather than {{flag|CAN}} to get it.

Done in a table. The reason is locked is the potential for BW:VANDL. Added |border=1 puts a white border around the flag. :-) Shane ^{(T - C - E)} 09:31, 23 May 2007 (CDT)

Why mention {{country flag|##}}, though, while {{flag|##}} works just as well, is shorter, and is more commonly used (nearly 600 times)? Nice one on the sortable table, BTW. --Catrope^{(Talk to me or e-mail me)} 09:54, 23 May 2007 (CDT)
