Template documentationDescription[edit source]
{{flaglink|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, {{flaglink|Brazil|at the 2007 Pan American Games}} has the same effect as {{flagicon|Brazil}} [[Brazil at the 2007 Pan American Games|Brazil]], both producing: 
Brazil.
- Parameters
- nation — Use the name of the country/region as per the set of templates in Category:Country data templates or an "alias" (such as a three-letter country code) as per the set of templates in Category:Country data redirects
- link — Specifies the suffix to append to the country's name to form the wikilink
- variant (optional) — Specifies an alternate (historical) flag to use. This parameter is documented by the appropriate country data template. This label can be specified as a named parameter, or as the third positional parameter.

- name (optional) — Can be used to change the wikilink display text
