Template:Flag link/doc

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Description

[edit]

{{flag link|country|link|variant=optional|size=optional|name=optional}}

Produces a flag icon attached to a wikilinked article. The name of the country is the prefix of the wikilink, but the display text is just the name of the country by itself.

For example, {{flag link|Brazil|at the 2007 Pan American Games}} has the same effect as {{flag decoration|Brazil}} [[Brazil at the 2007 Pan American Games|Brazil]], both producing:  Brazil.

For the first parameter, see Category:Country data templates and Category:Country data redirects for acceptable values.
