What do you think about adding of flags to this template? I think this template will look better. --Dnikitin (talk) 12:52, 10 January 2009 (UTC)

Agree that it is better if the nationality of the winner is shown in the template. I checked a few similar templates for other sports. It seems that some of these do not put nationality into the template, while some do. The style I have seen is like (SUI), (RUS), (CAN) etc. behind the winner's name. I did not see flags used. There are guidelines for the use of flags (MOS:FLAGS), which specify that when a flag icon is used for the first time in a list or table, it needs to appear adjacent to its respective country name. Maybe there are also more specific guidelines or agreements for navigation templates which I am not aware of. Anyway, size of the template should also be considered, as nation code (plus eventual flag) will make it larger. If size is a problem we can split this template into three smaller templates.

I've found several templates with flags. For example, Template:5WI_25_times and other Cricket nav templates, Template:Rugby league four nations, Template:G8-Finance and specially Template:Denver Nuggets roster --Dnikitin (talk) 18:41, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

Huge template Template:EuropeanChampionshipsMedalistsDance --Dnikitin (talk) 18:47, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

Looks good Template:National Figure Skating Championships --Dnikitin (talk) 18:53, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

Ok, I leave it to your judgement how to improve the template. Oceanh (talk) 19:24, 15 January 2009 (UTC).

As example, all flags have the same height (12px), rather than width --Dnikitin (talk) 15:22, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

One more variant

The flags have different sizes and therefore these templates look no so good as I expected. I don't like no ones. --Dnikitin (talk) 15:22, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
