[edit] Discussion

[edit] Colours

I've edited the table of suggested colours replacing bgcolor #RGB by #rrggbb, because at least one legacy browser shows the former as black on black. It doesn't affect actual usages of this template, legacy browsers don't support CSS. Omniplex 04:08, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Popular Sites

How about putting a link to google like

http://www.google.com/search?q=site:{{name}}

this would give you a list of popular sites under that TLD AdamJacobMuller 17:45, 11 March 2006 (UTC)

Somewhat dubious, an external link in an infobox used for all TLDs to one of many search engines probably isn't neutral. Omniplex  02:41, 13 March 2006 (UTC)
well, are there other search engines that do this, AFAIK google is the only one, in this respect it is in accordance with WP:EL since it definitely offers something that would be impossible to duplicate on wikipedia. I just suggested google because it was on the top of my head, any search engine would work really. AdamJacobMuller 04:08, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] flagicon

I propose to add {{flagicon}} as I did for .uk. 16@r 00:21, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
