[edit] Naval Ensign

Could you please add an alias for the naval ensign Image:Naval Ensign of the United Kingdom.svg to be used for naval commanders in battleboxes. Thanks. --Himasaram 02:54, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Earlier naval ensign

Could someone please add an additional alias for the previous version of the naval ensign, Image:British-White-Ensign-1707.svg used between 1707 and 1800, for use with ship class articles. Cheers. Martocticvs 10:26, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

Y Done. Use {{flagicon|United Kingdom|naval-1707}} for or {{navy|United Kingdom|naval-1707}} for  Royal Navy. Hope this helps, Andrwsc 03:32, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] RAF Ensign

Please would an administrator add:

flag alias-air force = Image:Ensign of the Royal Air Force.svg

link alias-air force = Royal Air Force

Thanks. Greenshed (talk) 01:22, 8 December 2007 (UTC)

Well, link alias-air force won't do anything, because no template looks for that parameter. What are you trying to do? Andrwsc (talk) 01:23, 8 December 2007 (UTC)

Ah. Sorry, I haven't fully understood all the templates in play here. What I'm after is:

{{flagicon|United Kingdom|air force}} →

{{air force|United Kingdom}} → Royal Air Force

Then these options can be used in air force biography articles and battles in which the RAF took part. Greenshed (talk) 18:31, 8 December 2007 (UTC)

Ok, so you need Template:air force to be created. If you can wait a day or two, I can work on it. Thanks, Andrwsc (talk) 18:59, 8 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Civil Ensign

Can a variant be added for Image:Civil Ensign of the United Kingdom.svg to be used on commercial vesels (currently working on updating RMS Queen Mary 2 to use current ship info-box template per WP:SHIPS, to get the flag to display in the correct location needs an update of the "flag" template). --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 00:10, 11 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Blue ensign requested

Can a variant be added for Image:Government Ensign of the United Kingdom.svg? This is the blue ensign used for some commercial ships, especially historic ships such as the RMS Titanic. Currently, those articles are linking the svg directly, but using a template variant from here would simplify that usage. --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 22:29, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
