- @Annh07 - WP:INFOBOXFLAG says: "Situations where flag icons may be used in infoboxes include: Representing the nationality of participants in sporting events where this practice is otherwise common, such as at the FIFA World Cup or Olympic Games" Bildersindtoll (talk) 16:41, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
- It seems you don't understand, let's take an example: Template:Infobox international football competition or 2022 FIFA World Cup. Flag icons should only be inserted in infoboxes in those cases where they convey information in addition to the text, such as the country the team represents or the nationality of players. The country field (host country) already states the country name so a flag icon is unnecessary. Annh07 (talk) 15:40, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Annh07 I quoted from the guideline and it says that the icons can be used, for example, at the FIFA World Cup or the Olympics. The Icons should not be used in the info boxes in particular if too many flags would appear there and this could lead to confusion. This is not the case. So I still see no official reason why the icons should not be used. Bildersindtoll (talk) 16:41, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
- In general, your edits goes against Wikipedia's Manual of Style. I encourage you to post your question at the Tea House. Annh07 (talk) 17:06, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Annh07 Rather than questioning the accuracy of my edits in principle, you should provide specific guideline points that justify your reverts. Bildersindtoll (talk) 17:29, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
- Since you don't understand MOS:INFOBOXFLAG and what I explained, I encourage you to go to the Tea House. If you continue to make edits based on your views, they will also be reverted by others because there is no consensus, for example here: [1], [2]. Annh07 (talk) 17:43, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Annh07 So you are not able to name a specific point within the guideline that justifies your reverts. Instead, you refer to the guideline in general. Not a good style and wrong. Bildersindtoll (talk) 18:34, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
- The reason I reverted your edit is because it does not comply with Wikipedia's Manual of Style. If you have questions about policies, please post a question at the Tea House, not here. Annh07 (talk) 18:48, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Annh07 I certainly don't have any questions. You can't just revert by referring to a guideline in general terms. You have to name the specific point within the guideline and you obviously can't do that. Bildersindtoll (talk) 19:18, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
- I explained above but it seems you don't understand so I recommend you go to the Tea House to get more specific help, so let's end the discussion here. Annh07 (talk) 20:09, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Annh07 As I said before, you can't name a specific point in the guideline that justifies your reverts. It is not enough to refer to a guideline in general and you know that. You're obviously interpreting the rules as you see fit and that's not a good style. Bildersindtoll (talk) 20:57, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
- Your edits are clearly not WP:MOS compliant and Annh has explained above but you still don't understand. If you've read MOS:FLAG, MOS:INFOBOXFLAG and don't understand, then post a question at the Tea house or Help desk, where the community will explain it to you. 14.242.0.2 (talk) 23:32, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
- Oh an “anonymous user” who also can't name a single concrete point in the guideline. This is ridiculous and once again illustrates what I said. Go out and touch some grass. Bildersindtoll (talk) 10:47, 28 July 2024 (UTC)
