Replacing "1889" alias with "1889a" flag

I note that Image:Flag of Brazil 15-19 November.svg is not used in icon form in any article (which makes sense in that it was only official for four days), so I think the 1889 flag variant label is much more appropriate for use with Image:Flag of Brazil (1889-1960).svg, which was used for 71 years. I will migrate all instances of the 1889a selector to use the more logical 1889 label instead, and remove the "4 day flag" from this template until it is truly needed.

Replacing "1889" alias with November 1889 flag

This flag (File:Flag of Brazil 15-19 November.svg) should not be ignored. Add another alias with this flag. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 189.46.203.63 (talk) 12:08, 16 April 2017‎ (UTC)[reply]

Not done: please establish a consensus for this alteration before using the {{edit template-protected}} template. File:Flag of Brazil (1889-1960).svg is already in the template. — JJMC89 (T·C) 01:55, 17 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@JJMC89: The IP was referring to the flag that Brazil had for 4 days in November 1889, which is different from the 1889-1960 flag. However, I agree that there's no consensus to replace the 1889 alias with the short-lived flag. --Ahecht (TALK

pharos? --Jeremyb (talk) 16:51, 17 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Not done: The country data templates only go down to the year as far as specificity goes. There is currently no way to bring that accuracy down to a five-day period. Primefac (talk) 17:18, 17 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Problems involving Navy template

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

The template is using the national flag instead of the Navy flag.
The marines variant links to Brazilian Navy instead of Brazilian Marine Corps. 200.171.226.20 (talk) 14:47, 1 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Not done: Read Template:Country data Brazil#Military ensigns for explanation, and evidence that the templates work, and are linked correctly.

{{navy|BRA}} -> Brazilian Navy
{{naval|BRA}} -> Brazilian Navy
{{marines|BRA}} -> Brazilian Marine Corps

Discuss it at WT:WikiProject Brazil if you want to build a consensus to change them. Cabayi (talk) 15:51, 1 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@200.171.226.20: It's using the national flag because that's the naval ensign. – Illegitimate Barrister (talk • contribs), 16:53, 9 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Better late than never, I have raised this at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Brazil#Brazilian Navy - flag/ensign templates. Davidships (talk) 13:26, 18 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Remove these flags as they are just based on the shades used in pictures in different editions of the CIA World Factbook (you can see if you open the flag image) and not are official or even real changes to the flag used by Brazil, they should not be included and especially not linked to a specific year
