This is the only parameter in the template and is used for defining which country's information should be used.
* All valid settings for flags are listed in the tables below
+
*The data entered here will provide the icon with its image and caption/tool tip text.
* This parameter is case-insensitive.
+
*Appropriate settings for this parameter are listed in the table below.
 
+
*Any text entered should be fully lowercase.
 +
*Any special characters (å, é, ì, ô, ū) are not used as they conflict with the wiki's file retrieving system.

=== Note: United Kingdom flags ===
+
A flag can be displayed by either using a country's two letter abbreviation, another name for the country, or the full name of the country in the '''name''' parameter. An alternate list of two letter abbreviations for countries can be found [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-1_alpha-2#Officially_assigned_code_elements here].
The individual flags of {{flag|uken}} England, {{flag|ukni}} Northern Ireland, {{flag|uksc}} Scotland, and {{flag|ukwa}} Wales should take preference in '''all possible circumstances''' over the {{flag|uk}} United Kingdom flag.

=== How this template works ===
+
If you wish to add a flag, the following requirements must be followed
# '''Template:Flag''' takes the input parameter and calls a sub-template at "Template:Flag/X". For example, <code><nowiki>{{flag|united nations}}</nowiki></code> will call [[Template:Flag/united nations]].
+
=== Image size ===
# This sub-template then in turn calls [[Template:Flag icon]], supplying it with a single parameter (<code><nowiki>{{Flag icon|X}}</nowiki></code>). For example, Template:Flag/united nations supplies Template:Flag icon with the single parameter <code>United Nations</code>
 
# Template:Flag icon calls for a flag image at "File:Flag of X.png", and applies formatting such as sizing and a 1px border. For example, if Template:Flag icon is given the parameter <code>United Nations</code>, it will supply [[:File:Flag of United Nations.png]] ({{flag|un}}).
 
 
 
* Many of the sub-templates (such as the abbreviations and alternate names) are simple redirects to a primary sub-template. For example, [[Template:Flag/un]], [[Template:Flag/global]], [[Template:Flag/international]] and [[Template:Flag/world]] all redirect to [[Template:Flag/united nations]]. Template:Flag/united nations is the primary sub-template which then calls Template:Flag icon.

+
*[[Template:Flag/abbr]] controls abbreviations and flag names, add your flag with its appropriate abbreviation there
<pre><nowiki>{{Flag icon|</nowiki>'''ProperFlagName'''<nowiki>}}<noinclude>[[Category:Flag sub-templates]]</noinclude></nowiki></pre>
+
*Update the appropriate documentation template at Template:Flag/doc/''FirstLetterOfFullFlagName'' (e.g. [[Template:Flag/doc/s]] for Switzerland)
*Create a template at <code>Template:Flag/'''abbr'''</code>, where <code>abbr</code> is the lowercase abbreviation of your flag. This template should be a simple redirect to the primary sub-template (<code>Template:Flag/'''lowercaseflagname'''</code>)
+
 
**If your template has any alternate names or abbreviations, create them as simple redirects to the primary sub-template as well
+
<noinclude>[[Category:Flag Documentation Templates]]</noinclude>
*Add your flag to the correct table in the [[Template:Flag/doc|documentation template]].<noinclude>[[Category:Flag Documentation Templates]]</noinclude>
