This is a documentation subpage for Template:Country data Ireland. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
This template is intended to be used for all-Ireland instances, usually resulting in a wikilink to Ireland (the island) instead of Republic of Ireland (the nation). Specifically, several sport-specific flag variants are maintained here, and these are automatically used by the respective sport team templates:
- {{fb|Ireland}} → Ireland (football, 1882-1922)
- {{cr|Ireland}} → Ireland (cricket)
- {{ru|Ireland}} → Ireland (rugby union)
- {{fh|Ireland}} → Ireland (field hockey)
However, it is often convenient to use {{flagicon|Ireland}} and {{flag|Ireland}} instead of {{flagicon|Republic of Ireland}} and {{flag|Republic of Ireland}} respectively, so this template differs from the standard format in order to accommodate that usage. The alias parameter changes depending on whether or not a flag variant is used by the parent template call:
alias = {{#if:{{{variant|}}}|Ireland|Republic of Ireland}}
This results in
- {{flag|Ireland|1783}} → Ireland (use for Ireland as part of United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland)
- {{flag|Ireland}} → Ireland (use for current state)
Use of country code aliases
The standard country code for the Republic of Ireland is IRL, so it can be used as an alias for Template:Country data Republic of Ireland. The non-standard country code IRE is used as an alias for this template to provide similar convenience. For example:
- {{flagicon|IRL}} →
- {{flagicon|IRE|1783}} →
- {{flagicon|IRE|rugby}} →
- {{fb|IRL}} → Republic of Ireland (links to Republic of Ireland national football team)
- {{fb|IRE}} → Ireland (links to Ireland national football team (IFA))
- {{fb|IRE|IFA}} → Ireland (links to Ireland national football team (IFA))
- {{fb|IRE|FAI}} → Ireland (links to Ireland national football team (FAI))
- {{ru|IRE}} → Ireland (links to Ireland national rugby union team)
{{ru|IRL}}→Ireland(DO NOT USE)
