@Primefac: Apparently your edit here doesn't work yet. I still see one flag for all Azerbaijani pages. I assume that's because of the order of things. maybe you should replace the lines.

	AZE = {
		name = "Azerbaijan",
		{2013, "Flag of Azerbaijan (1991–2013).svg"},
		"Flag of Azerbaijan.svg",
	},

something like this. Sports2021 (talk) 00:43, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It shouldn't matter, but apparently it does. Fixed. Primefac (talk) 06:59, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Completed. P.I. Ellsworth , ed. ^{put'er there} 01:15, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I have partially undone this; the requested change is to an image of terrible quality, even compared to the JPG that I am replacing it with (the lines and letters are not at all crisp or even straight - compare to the emblem). Primefac (talk) 07:23, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, at the 1982 Asian Games in New Delhi, they used the code "ADE" for South Yemen, (ADE short for Aden) can we add ADE = "YMD", to this? source, page 2. Thanks Sports2021 (talk) 22:26, 27 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
