Hi,
Could someone please edit this template and add the following line to alias section:

| link alias-air force = Portuguese Air Force

Hi,

can't find how to make the change to the templates. All flag templates prior to 1910 should actually redirect to Kingdom of Portugal, not just Portugal. Thanks. JJ Georges (talk) 09:06, 28 January 2010 (UTC)

Hi,

Please add variant for flag used in year 1495 as well for the Portugal events that happened between 1495 to 1578.

See File:Flag Portugal (1495).svg

Thanks, ThisAvatar (discuss–?) 01:31, 27 August 2012 (UTC)

 Done. Swarm ^X 03:24, 29 August 2012 (UTC)

The current flag icon

The current flag icon is completely wrong! Please someone change it back! The flag currently is non-existent! Cristiano Tomás (talk) 16:57, 25 March 2013 (UTC)

Template-protected edit request on 26 July 2014

There exists a related country data template, Template:Country data Portuguese Empire. Either these should be merged (since this Portugal template includes all the flags of the Empire as well), or the following code:

<noinclude> | related1 = Portugal </noinclude>

should be added to this template to link them together. Ithinkicahn (talk) 17:26, 26 July 2014 (UTC)

I've added "related1 = Portuguese Empire", as that is far simpler than merging them. Template:Country data Portuguese Empire already points back to this one. -- John of Reading (talk) 17:40, 27 July 2014 (UTC)

Civil Ensign outdated

I cannot find any evidence that the 1830 version of the civil ensign, which contains a royal symbol (the crown), is still in use today (http://www.presidencia.pt/?idc=44&idl=2). It seems like all pre-1910 (royal flags) are replaced by the new universal republican flag in 1910/1911 except for military ensigns. The current civil ensign or merchant flag is thus the same as the 'normal' national flag as used on land. This is also the situation as presented in wikipedia articles Flag of Portugal and List of Portuguese flags and here: Civil and merchant ensigns.

Because the civil ensign 'tag' is wrong, the wrong flags are e.g. shown on this overview Carnival Cruise Line#Former fleet for Holiday and Celebration. The ships are built in the 1980s, several decades after 1910/1911, the discontinuation of the former flag, yet still the old flag is shown here.

remove the flag labeled 'civil'.

As shown in inter alia, Flag of Portugal and List of Portuguese flags and here: Civil and merchant ensigns, the current national flag is also the current civil ensign or merchant flag. The flag currently shown here as the civil ensign is the pre-republic flag which use ended in 1911 with the official introduction of the republican flag. As far as I can tell does neither the current constitution nor any legislation refer to any separate civil ensign besides the national flag and the military ensigns, see also: http://www.presidencia.pt/?idc=44.

 Not done: please establish a consensus for this alteration before using the {{edit template-protected}} template. Youp.c, it may be wrong but it's currently used on >100 pages. You'll need to replace each of its uses before it can be removed. From a quick search most historic Portuguese legislative elections 1852-1908 will need the "civil" in

| flag_year          = civil

changed to the appropriate year. The lists of shipwrecks are also affected. Some prior discussion at WT:WikiProject Portugal would be appropriate. Cabayi (talk) 17:38, 30 May 2018 (UTC)

remove:
flag alias-1911 = Flag of Portugal (WFB 2000).png
flag alias-2004 = Flag of Portugal (WFB 2004).gif
flag alias-2013 = Flag of Portugal (WFB 2013).gif
| var10 = 1911
| var11 = 2004
| var12 = 2013
These lines as these will remove the flags which 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 Portugal, they should not be included and especially not linked to a specific year.
Flags which use these templates will automatically use the default portugese flag, which they should. So things wont break

Cabayi see my response at Template_talk:Country_data_Russia, as it applies here as well. --Havsjö (talk) 10:59, 12 January 2019 (UTC)
