Usage examples
തിരുത്തുക{{flag country|ITA}}
→ ഇറ്റലി- In this case, the country code for Italy (ITA) is used to produce the correct flag and wikilink. In many cases, it would probably be preferable to use {{flag}} to produce the same result, such as
{{flag|Italy}}
for this example. However, {{flag country}} could be used within other templates (such as infoboxes) so that country codes can be used for those template parameters.
- In this case, the country code for Italy (ITA) is used to produce the correct flag and wikilink. In many cases, it would probably be preferable to use {{flag}} to produce the same result, such as
{{flag country|ITA|1861}}
→ ഇറ്റലി- Similar to the first example, but with a flag variant parameter to select a historical flag image. (The wikilinked article is
[[Italy]]
.)
- Similar to the first example, but with a flag variant parameter to select a historical flag image. (The wikilinked article is
{{flag country|Kingdom of Italy}}
→ Italy- In this example, a different country data template is used, to select an alternative article for the wikilink (in this case,
[[Kingdom of Italy|Italy]]
). Compare with{{flag|Kingdom of Italy}}
→ Kingdom of Italy, in which "Kingdom of Italy" is the display text for the wikilink. Therefore, the choice offlag country
orflag
depends on the desired display text; in all other respects, the templates are identical.
- In this example, a different country data template is used, to select an alternative article for the wikilink (in this case,
{{flag country|South Korea|name=Korea}}
