:Should the module insert prefix "File:" before the flag text? [[User:Johnuniq|Johnuniq]] ([[User talk:Johnuniq|talk]]) 10:18, 9 December 2016 (UTC)
::No, it should not insert the prefix. While it would be fine in some usage (like {{t|flagIPC}}), infoboxes invoke [[Module:InfoboxImage|InfoboxImage]], which requires only the name. [[User:Primefac|Primefac]] ([[User talk:Primefac|talk]]) 17:50, 9 December 2016 (UTC)

The module is transcluded in 34,664 pages and even minor edit wars are inappropriate when changes have such an impact. Editing the module should be done with care and any disagreements should be discussed on the talk page. I recommend using [[Template talk:Country alias]] as it is the template that appears in articles and it is conventional for discussions about changes affecting the template to occur on its talk. The module talk page is usually either a redirect to the template talk, or is for discussion about technical issues regarding the module (that is, how the code works, not whether some data should be "Ivory Coast" or "Côte d'Ivoire").
By the way Primefac, it is time to remove the TODO note at the top. You may like to also keep or remove the EXA and EXX examples: whatever you think. [[User:Johnuniq|Johnuniq]] ([[User talk:Johnuniq|talk]]) 01:27, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
