Update code

edit

I suggest we update the code to add other historical flags of Tunisia:

{{ {{{1<noinclude>|country showdata</noinclude>}}}
| alias = Tunisia
| flag alias = Flag of Tunisia.svg
| flag alias-old = Pre-1999 Flag of Tunisia.svg
| flag alias-ottoman = Tunisian flag till 1831.svg
| flag alias-bey = Flag of Tunis Bey-fr.svg
| size = {{{size|}}}
| name = {{{name|}}}
| altlink = {{{altlink|}}}
| variant = {{{variant|}}}
<noinclude>
| var1 = old
| var2 = ottoman
| var3 = bey
| redir1 = TUN
</noinclude>
}}<noinclude>
[[sl:Predloga:Podatki države Tunizija]]
</noinclude>

The other two flags aren't used in icon form within Wikipedia, so there is no need (yet?) to add them to this template, expanding the pre-include size for every transclusion. — Andrwsc (talk · contribs) 18:58, 23 August 2011 (UTC)Reply

  Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format. — {{U|Technical 13}} (etc) 23:14, 25 June 2014 (UTC)Reply
  Partly done: Added the 1959, French and Bey variants. I'll track the "old" one before changing it. SiBr4 (talk) 07:22, 26 June 2014 (UTC)Reply
I think we should reconsider adding the alleged French variant as I am sure it will always be used incorrectly within this template. The Tunisian flag with a French canton was only ever used by some French army units while in Tunisia and never as a flag to represent the country or the protectorate.

@Spesh531: I have now reassigned the "old" variant to the 19th-century flag, since the only pages still appearing to be using it to refer to the 1959–1999 flag are user and user talk pages. SiBr4 (talk) 19:36, 18 July 2014 (UTC)Reply

Flag of French Tunisia

edit

There needs to be a mention somewhere in the documentation that, as stated in Flag of Tunisia, the Flag of French Tunisia was in fact never used to represent the protectorate. It was a flag used by some military units, yet some editors, perhaps misled by this template, are using it incorrectly. I myself am not allowed to make a change on this template.

The contents of the unprotected documentation subpage are transcluded in the "Other information" section on the template page. SiBr4 (talk) 20:35, 4 September 2015 (UTC)Reply

I suggest that the so-called Flag of French Tunisia be removed from this template. It is periodically used erroneously to illustrate the French Protectorate of Tunisia and therefore requires constant overseeing. There is never a case where this template will use this flag appropriately. Therefore this option should be removed. Abjiklɐm (tɐlk) 01:36, 2 March 2016 (UTC)Reply

  Not done for now: Please establish a consensus before this change is made. I will notify WikiProject Tunisia. Ahecht (TALK

I understand the need for consensus, but I'd like to say two things:
  1. This flag was added without consensus in the first place (see previous edit request). I unfortunately arrived one day after the damage was done. No discussion occurred whatsoever and my concerns were completely ignored.
  2. This flag was never used correctly ever since it's been added to the template.
With these two points in mind, I hope we will agree that this flag must be removed from the template. Abjiklɐm (tɐlk) 06:36, 2 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
