ECMWF, WMO

edit

Propose: expanding this template to include trans-national organisations (ECMWF, WMO etc.). Feline Hymnic (talk) 20:23, 16 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

Have added a 'below' element for this. It should suffice for the present. Feline Hymnic (talk) 22:05, 17 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

Flag icons

edit

I oppose the removal of the flag icons, and as I state in a slightly similar situation here I don't see that they hinder, and actually believe that they help, readability where multiple countries are involved. Could we get them reinserted into the template? Ks0stm (TCG) 17:11, 4 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

The request seems reasonable. Perhaps we ought to pursue whether we are in favour of flag icons. I'll start:
  • Moderately in favour: Generally I oppose flags being inserted all over the place in articles and general tables. But in this case, they are a quick and easy visual indicator, directly relevant to locating a particular country or nation in big blocks of text which are specifically about just such countries and nations.

Abbreviations

edit

Would anyone object to me changing the full organisation names to their respective abbreviations in this template? It just seems extremely cluttered this way. --    17:52, 12 October 2013 (UTC)Reply

What about just the country names? Like this. Would make it much easier to read and navigate.
