Template talk:Country flagcountry

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Same as {{country_flag}} but using a slightly longer name for text label.

[edit] Borders for white flags

Please slightly change to:

{{border|[[Image:{{country flag alias {{{1}}}}}|{{#if:{{{size|}}}|{{{size}}}|22x20px}}|Flag of {{country alias {{{1}}}}}]]}} [[{{country alias {{{1}}}}}|{{#if:{{{name|}}}|{{{name}}}|{{country shortname alias {{{1}}}}}}}]]

This rendered the borders around flags.--AlefZet 11:06, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

Indeed, could someone please do this? — OwenBlacker 14:05, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

This seems problematic to me. Some flags already have a flag image that includes a border, some explicitly don't.

Example for a flag that already has a border:

{{country|flagcountry|Poland|size=30px}} =  Poland

which expands as

[[Image:Flag of Poland (bordered).svg|30px|Flag of Poland]] [[Poland|Poland]]

Wrapping this into a border call would look like this:

{{border|[[Image:Flag of Poland (bordered).svg|30px|Flag of Poland]]}} [[Poland|Poland]] =  Poland

I've removed the editprotected for now (I'm also an admin and can edit the template, once we have consensus what to do).

As a side note, we are currently in the middle of a design change for the flag templates. See Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Flag Template#Ideas for reworking and especially User:Ligulem/work/flag templates rework. This template here would be replaced with Template:Country flagcountry2. --Ligulem 15:32, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

Flag images have been adjusted individually by people creating a bordered flag, often with "bordered" in the name of the new image name. The bordering issue can be dealt with separately before implementing a solution. Is there a relevant Wikiproject which can examine the issue? (SEWilco 06:10, 14 January 2007 (UTC))
