Alternatives to avoid Wikipedia's Post-expand include size limit

Pages with many flag icons may come close to or exceed Wikipedia's Post-expand include size limit. In these cases consider using modules or module-wrapper templates instead:

{{flagg}} is a simple wrapper for Module:Flagg: For basic use, {{Flag medalist|[[athlete's name]]|country code or name}} can be replaced with [[athlete's name]]<br/>{{flagg|unc|country code or name}}. To use IOC country codes, replace unc with unci.
{{#invoke:flag|medalist}} is a wrapper for Module:Flagg that can further reduce sizes when invoked directly. For basic use, {{Flag medalist|athlete's name|country code or name}} can be replaced with {{#invoke:flag|medalist|athlete's name|country code or name}}. To use IOC country codes, add |opts=i.
