{{Lua|Module:Infobox|Module:InfoboxImage|Module:Check for unknown parameters}}

This infobox can display up to 6 [[flag]]s. It is not only for [[national flag]]s.

==Parameters==
Only the {{para||Name}} and {{para||Image}} parameters are mandatory. However, {{para|Use|<var>{{tl|FIAV#Usage symbols}}</var>}} is required for the {{para||Symbol}} parameter. (see [[#Example]]).

===General===
;Name: Name of entity.
;Image_size: Size of images to use in infobox; if not specified, default is <code>255x170px</code>.

===Flag-specific===
Each of these fields can be given a suffix from 2 to 6 in order to specify up to 6 variants (war flags, naval ensigns, air force ensigns, alternative civil flags, etc.) of the national flag, in addition to the main (non-suffixed) version considered ''the'' national flag. For an example, see [[Flag of the United Kingdom]]. All of the following parameters are optional with the exception of {{para||Image}}. However, {{para|Use|<var>{{tl|FIAV#Usage symbols}}</var>}} is required for {{para||Symbol}}. (see [[#Example]]).
{{Infobox flag
| Name = Name
| Image = Oduduwa Flag.jpg
| Image_size = {{{Image_size|255x170px}}}
| Nickname = [[Oduduwa|Oduduwa flag]]
| Image2 = Flag of Togo (3-2).svg
| Nickname2 = [[Togo|Togo flag]]
}}
;Image: Filename excluding <code>Image:</code> or <code>File:</code> prefix.
;Imagetext: Caption for the image.
;Noborder: Leave this field ''blank'' to display image with border by default for rectangular flag. For non-rectangular flag, type <code>yes</code>.
;Nickname: Name of the flag. Wikilinks will work in all Nickname parameters.
:'''NicknameN''': example {{para|Nickname2}}. For flags 2 through 6, this name will be placed in a header to clearly separate information from the previous flag's information.
:{{para|Nickname|<nowiki>[[Oduduwa|Oduduwa flag]]</nowiki>}} and {{para|Nickname2|<nowiki>[[Togo|Togo flag]]</nowiki>}}...
;Morenicks: More names of the flag, separated by commas.
;Use: 6-bit [[FIAV]] usage code (see {{tl|FIAV#Usage symbols}}). Required for {{para||Symbol}}.
;Symbol: One or more IFIS symbols, e.g. <code><nowiki>[[File:IFIS Sinister.png|Obverse side of flag]]</nowiki></code> or <code><nowiki>{{FIAV|sinister}}</nowiki></code>. A list of these symbols can be seen at [[Vexillological symbol#Other symbols]] or {{tl|FIAV#Property symbols}}. {{para|Use|<var>{{tl|FIAV#Usage symbols}}</var>}} is required.
;Proportion: <code><var>width</var>:<var>length</var></code>, e.g. <code>2:3</code>.
;Adoption: Date on which the flag was adopted.
;Relinquished: Date on which the flag was relinquished.
;Design: Concise description of the design.
;Alt: Alt text for the image, for visually impaired readers. See [[Wikipedia:Alternative text for images]]. If omitted or empty, the {{para||Design}} parameter should contain a suitable description, or there should be nearby text in the article that describes the image.
;Designer: Name of person(s) who designed the flag.

==Example==
