 * It should be possible (and desirable) to change back to a redirect, now that the flag template has been enhanced. If this was a redirect, then any instance of 🇹🇼 Taiwan would remain the same (including all instances where Template:TWN is used), and any instance of 🇹🇼 would render the same flag.  The only template calls that would result in different output would be 🇹🇼 taiwan .  I will look for those specific instances and change to 🇹🇼 Taiwan .  Then we can change this back to a redirect, which I think is preferable for maintenance.  Andrwsc 18:40, 6 March 2007 (UTC)


 * There were 795 transclusions of this template, including 145 via TWN, but only 14 used 🇹🇼 taiwan, so I updated them. Consequently, I will change this back to a redirect.  Andrwsc 07:37, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

Direct links to Taiwan
The links should now direct to Taiwan now that the article on the Republic of China has moved.-- Tærkast (Discuss) 20:22, 21 April 2012 (UTC)

Please add the  parameter to the football, basketball and rugby aliases (after the word "national"). Thanks, Maiō T. (talk) 22:17, 18 September 2016 (UTC)


 * Red information icon with gradient background.svg Not done: This template is for displaying the correct flag for a country. Age is irrelevant. You'll need to provide a compelling reason, discussion and consensus for this change. Cabayi (talk) 06:14, 19 September 2016 (UTC)

The link-alias-basketball creates wikilinks to the redirect page. It's something like a double redirect: Code creates  (article name: Chinese Taipei national basketball team) and then it's redirected to Chinese Taipei men's national basketball team. So, we have two options: either we remove the link-alias-basketball line completely (result would be: Taiwan national basketball team, then redirect) or fix that line with  parameter. I don't know what's the better solution. And then, please do the same edit at Template:Country data Republic of China, too. Thanks, Maiō T. (talk) 21:45, 26 May 2017 (UTC)

After one week, I'm adding these examples

 * Red question icon with gradient background.svg 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.
 * As this hasn't been done in over a week I'll stick my neck out and suggest that the comment "I don't know what's the better solution" shows a lack of confidence in the change, a lack of testing, and a lack of consensus. Please reactivate when you've settled on what the requested change is. Cabayi (talk) 08:53, 4 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Pictogram voting comment.svg Note: Changes to Template:Country data Republic of China should be requested at Template talk:Country data Republic of China. It keeps the logic of the change together with the change itself and maintains clarity for those editors watching one of the templates but not both. Cabayi (talk) 09:02, 4 June 2017 (UTC)
 * After those years, I have decided. There's nothing to think about. The article name is "Chinese Taipei men's national basketball team" so please fix the "mw" parameter to . Thanks, Maiō T. (talk) 21:09, 21 February 2020 (UTC)

Flag change
Can you change the main flag from the existing one to the new one? on the top? Thanks. Wrestlingring (talk) 23:20, 6 October 2017 (UTC)

How is the Chines Taipei flag chosen?
See Chinese_Taipei for a name of variants. I can't figure out from the code which of those we use, and I am not sure it is justified to use the 'white' variant instead of the regular flag of Taiwan (above)? I hope we are not using the Olympic flag by default - it would not be correct for other events with their own variants (like Paralympics). Is there a generic variant? And it's fine to use the white flag for the events that adopted it (like the Olympics), but what about other events that just adopt the name and are not clear about the flag?
