:Do you know if there are there any pages which rely on the current code and could break as a result? — Martin <small>([[User:MSGJ|MSGJ]] · [[User talk:MSGJ|talk]])</small> 11:26, 14 February 2024 (UTC)
::I could understand that the suggestion to remove them could lead to pages breaking, so better to leave them in. But alpha3 used by [[Template:ISO 3166 code-3]] and numeric used by [[Template:ISO 3166 numeric]] are underused: [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:ISO_3166_code-3 pages using code-3], [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:ISO_3166_numeric pages using numeric]. My suggestion to edit these values was in relation to adding them to [[Template:Infobox country]], but also that it would output false values for code-3 and numeric for these regions.
::There is also the other way around, where England can be found using "ENG" and would break if this module is changed in this way. However, ENG could be added as an alias for England instead, so it doesn't break these cases. While ENG isn't a reserved code and could be used by any future country or dependency, the same can be said about other aliases such as UAE, CAR, which are also aliases.
::Is it possible in some way to find all pages outputting alpha3 and numeric for these five? [[User:Pon Pon the bon bon|Pon Pon the bon bon]] ([[User talk:Pon Pon the bon bon|talk]]) 12:11, 14 February 2024 (UTC)
