Replacing "1889" alias with "1889a" flag
I note that Image:Flag of Brazil 15-19 November.svg is not used in icon form in any article (which makes sense in that it was only official for four days), so I think the  flag variant label is much more appropriate for use with Image:Flag of Brazil (1889-1960).svg, which was used for 71 years. I will migrate all instances of the  selector to use the more logical   label instead, and remove the "4 day flag" from this template until it is truly needed.

 * The IP was referring to the flag that Brazil had for 4 days in November 1889, which is different from the 1889-1960 flag. However, I agree that there's no consensus to replace the 1889 alias with the short-lived flag. --Ahecht ([[User_talk:Ahecht|'''TALK

 * Red information icon with gradient background.svg Not done: The country data templates only go down to the year as far as specificity goes. There is currently no way to bring that accuracy down to a five-day period. Primefac (talk) 17:18, 17 April 2017 (UTC)

Problems involving Navy template

 * The template is using the national flag instead of the Navy flag.
 * The marines variant links to Brazilian Navy instead of Brazilian Marine Corps. 200.171.226.20 (talk) 14:47, 1 June 2018 (UTC)


 * Red information icon with gradient background.svg Not done: Read Template:Country data Brazil for explanation, and evidence that the templates work, and are linked correctly.

flag alias-1992 = Flag of Brazil (WFB 2000).svg flag alias-2004 = Flag of Brazil (WFB 2004).svg flag alias-2007 = Flag of Brazil (WFB 2007).svg Remove these flags as they are just based on the shades used in pictures in different editions of the CIA World Factbook (you can see if you open the flag image) and not are official or even real changes to the flag used by Brazil, they should not be included and especially not linked to a specific year These files are not used on any sites except the automatically filled in "non-permanent UN members" on United Nations Security Council Resolutions

Code which should replace current one for these changes to be implemented, including taking into account things like vars. Enter edit mode to get it in indexed form... Altered to use syntaxhighlight - Cabayi
