Template:Space force/doc

Usage

{{space force|nation|variant|size=optional|name=optional}}

Produces a flag icon attached to a wikilinked national space force article.

Parameters

• nation — Use either the name of the nation or the three-letter ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 country code
• variant (optional) — Specifies an alternate (historical) flag to use. This parameter is documented by the appropriate template in Category:Country data templates. Note that the standard behaviour of this template is to use the space force variant if present, so there is no need to specify this variant in the template call.
• size (optional) — Can be used to change the flag icon size
• name (optional) — Can be used to change the wikilink display text

Examples

• {{space force|Russia}} → Russian Space Forces
• {{space force|Russian Federation}} → Russian Space Forces
• {{space force|RUS}} → Russian Space Forces
• {{space force|United States}} → United States Space Force
• {{space force|US}} → United States Space Force
• {{space force|U.S.}} → United States Space Force

Other related templates

The {{flag icon}} template can be used to display the space force flag by itself, using the space force variant as a template parameter:

• {{flag icon|Russia|space force}} →
• {{flag icon|United States|space force}} →

Implementation notes

By default, this template shows the standard national flag for the selected country, following by a wikilink to "Country space force". Both of these items can be changed by adding specific parameters to the appropriate country_data template (complete set found in Category:Country data templates).

To use a different flag, such as the space force ensign for the nation, use:

flag alias-space force = image name of space force ensign

To use a different name for the wikilinked space force article, use:

link alias-space force = article name
