Edit request from 117Avenue, 30 January 2011
[edit]{{edit protected}}
Please add the Hudson's Bay Company flag, as seen on Flag of the Northwest Territories, to this template. I believe it is done by adding the parameters | flag alias-1869 = Hudsons Bay Company Flag.svg
and | var2 = 1869
. Thanks, 117Avenue (talk) 02:09, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

Please remove the hypothetical flag, which has no evidence of its existence, and add the 1921, 1957, and 1965 Canada flags by replacing the template syntax with the following:
{{ {{{1<noinclude>|country showdata</noinclude>}}} | alias = Northwest Territories | flag alias-1869 = Hudsons Bay Company Flag.svg | flag alias-1921 = Flag of Canada 1921.svg | flag alias-1957 = Canadian Red Ensign.svg | flag alias-1965 = Flag of Canada.svg | flag alias = Flag of the Northwest Territories.svg | size = {{{size|}}} | name = {{{name|}}} | variant = {{{variant|}}} <noinclude> | var1 = 1869 | var2 = 1921 | var3 = 1957 | var3 = 1965 </noinclude> }}

Please replace File:Flag of Canada 1921.svg with File:Canadian Red Ensign 1921-1957.svg. It was renamed on Commons. Fry1989 eh? 01:12, 22 February 2013 (UTC)

Please revert Urhixidur's edit, as discussed above there is no evidence that the added flag ever existed, it also incorrectly uses the var4 field.

Done Fixed. My apologies, I was going for completeness, mistakenly assuming wikimedia had properly vetted the image. There is some evidence for the 1959 Blue Ensign (i.e. http://nationsflags.blogspot.ca/2011/09/northwest-territories.html), but I agree it is thin. Urhixidur (talk) 11:27, 3 June 2013 (UTC)
- Blogs are not reliable. That one is especially suspicious with other images from Wikipedia. 117Avenue (talk) 01:20, 4 June 2013 (UTC)

Please change the Hudson's Bay Company flag to the 1868 version of the Canadian Red Ensign. The notion that the HBC flag was used as a territorial flag is based on a Wikipedia editor's misreading of a sentence in Fraser's book. "The flags of the Hudson's Bay Company, particularly its red ensign, continued to be seen in both territories up until comparatively modern times" does not mean that the territorial authorities used it as their flag; it just means the HBC itself continued to use it.
Also, 1870 is the year is NWT was established, not 1869, so the template should use that year.
Change "flag alias-1869 = Hudsons Bay Company Flag.svg"
To "flag alias-1870 = Canadian Red Ensign (1868–1921).svg" Indefatigable (talk) 16:46, 9 September 2021 (UTC)
- I have updated the flag as requested. Before changing the year to 1870, I just wanted to check if you were going to edit all the articles that are using this alias and change them? — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 12:29, 13 September 2021 (UTC)
- @MSGJ. Yes, I will use AWB to go through the articles that transclude the template and use a regex to change \|1869\b to |1870. Checking for false positives of course. Indefatigable (talk) 17:17, 13 September 2021 (UTC)
- Okay I have made the change — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 19:35, 13 September 2021 (UTC)
- I have changed all usages of alias-1869 to 1870. The only articles using it were six election articles. Indefatigable (talk) 23:53, 13 September 2021 (UTC)
