Template:Flag link athlete/doc

The Flag link athlete template is designed to provide relevant links to the "Nation at Championships" style sub-articles when listing that nation's athletes on athletics championships pages.

Usage

The template has four input fields:

{{Flag link athlete|Athlete name|Country code|Competition|variant=}}

• The Athlete name can be entered as plain text or bracketed linked text as required (e.g. Carl Lewis or Carl Lewis)
• The Country code is the three letter country code used to refer to the nation in international competitions (e.g. Afghanistan = AFG)
• The Competition field relates to which competition needs to be linked. Leaving this field intentionally blank will automatically use the current page name to create the link.
• The variant field allows for when a country has changed their flag over the course of time. See the Country Data set templates for the relevant details of flag variants and codes for the given country.

Examples

*{{Flag link athlete|[[Liang Rui]]|CHN|2019 World Athletics Championships}}

•  Liang Rui (CHN)

*{{Flag link athlete|[[Dwight Phillips]]|USA|2009 World Championships in Athletics}}

•  Dwight Phillips (USA)

Blank edition field

When using a blank edition field on a template used on the 2011 World Championships in Athletics page:

*{{Flag link athlete|[[Dwight Phillips]]|USA}}

•  Dwight Phillips (USA)
