Template:Flag CGF athlete/sandbox

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

Description

This template is used to simplify creation of Commonwealth Games results articles. It expands upon the infrastructure developed for the {{Flag CGF}} template to render the following additions to an athlete's name:

• flag icon for the athlete's nation before the name
• country code for the athlete's nation after the name
• wikilink from the country code to the appropriate "Nation at the year Commonwealth Games" article

Usage

{{Flag CGF athlete|athlete|code|games}}

athlete

Any text string, usually a wikilinked name. Could also be a pair of names, for example.

code

Three letter code as per List of CGF country codes

games

Year expressed in the format yyyy

Note that the combination of code and games parameters will automatically choose the correct flag for the nation (including historical flags for nations in which they have changed over the years) and the correct wikilink to the nation's article.

Examples

{{flag CGF athlete | [[Leisel Jones]] | AUS | 2006 }}

 Leisel Jones (AUS)

{{flag CGF athlete | [[Robert McDonald (bowls)|Robert McDonald]] and [[Phil Skoglund]] | NZL | 1974 }}

 Robert McDonald and Phil Skoglund (NZL)

{{flag CGF athlete | [[Percy Williams (sprinter)|Percy Williams]] | CAN | 1930 }} (shows historical Canadian flag in use in 1930)

Percy Williams
