User:Huaiwei and User:SchmuckyTheCat have been attempting to remove this template from flag of Hong Kong, Macao and Gibraltar ([1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8]). Should the use of this template be limited to sovereign States? There have been many discussions on several talk pages over whether the word "national" should refer only to "nations" or "sovereign States", or to the broader sense of "country". — Instantnood July 9, 2005 08:55 (UTC) (modified 13:07, July 24, 2005 (UTC))
