I suggest all the links should point to the ''Military of''' articles (eg [[Military of Belgium]], [[Military of the United Kingdom]]) since NATO is primarily a military organisation. At the moment this template is used on *some* country articles, but not all. -- [[User:Joolz|Joolz]] 16:03, 29 May 2005 (UTC)


== Link to NATO members ==
: Should this template be used in country articles (such [[Belgium]] or [[United Kingdom]]) then? One has to search in such template the country he is currently visiting, because it isn't bolded (the article on Belgium is something else than Military of Belgium). This (at least in my eyes) severely harms the use of the template. -- [[User:Sandius|Sandius]] 10:35, 13 July 2005 (UTC)
::It should only be used in articles such as [[Military of Belgium]], the ones on the country articles should be removed. This follows through on a judgement made er.. somewhere, about the usage of these templates (e.g., [[Template:World Trade Organization (WTO)|Template:WTO]] is on the [[Economy of Australia|Economy of]] series) - I can't find the place where it was decided now, I'll have a look, it's here somewhere! ;) -- [[User:Joolz|Joolz]] 13:10, 13 July 2005 (UTC)

Hello. Seeing as [[NATO]] is an alliance of nations, shouldn't the links in the "Members" tab link to the Member states page rather than that of their respective armed forces?

== FYROM ==
See [[Template talk:Europe#Republic of Macedonia]]. There has been a point raised that NATO calls it FYROM, and that the template should follow this, but in my view the templates should use the same name (Republic of Macedonia or R. Macedonia) for the sake of consistency. --[[User:GunnarRene|GunnarRene]] 15:42, 3 July 2006 (UTC)


==Logo/Flag Discussion==
==Add NATO Star==
{{Edit template-protected|Template:North Atlantic Treaty Organization|answered=yes}}
I see from the history that the NATO flag was removed, though there was no discussion. It was actually the first thing I noticed about the template, was the lack of a logo on either/both sides. While I have seen previous discussions on other templates about not including each individual flag, I believe an organizational logo should remain -- [[User:MrDolomite|MrDolomite]] 20:34, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

Adding the flag proved very easy. I have a copy of the source code as a user subpage ([[User:Mr Minchin/Drafts/NATO]]) someone can copy to here. Here's what it looks like:

:That's pretty cool, MrM, I'm still struggling with boxes/frames/tables/etc :) I was going to copy it over but then I figured 1) you should do it and get credit for your work and B) I flipped through some of the others on {{ccl|International_organization_navigational_boxes}} and decided I would float two other layouts to the group before changing anything.-- [[User:MrDolomite|MrDolomite]] | [[User talk:MrDolomite|Talk]] 19:59, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
:*[[User:Mr Minchin/Drafts/NATO]]- flag inline in the title bar; members list spans whole box
:*{{tl|AU_countries}} - flag level with title bar, but on right side; members list spans whole box
:*{{tl|OAS}} - flag to the right of both title bar and members list

{{tl|EU countries and candidates}} uses flag to the right of both title bar and members list, but that doesn't seem to work with a landscape orientation flag. I think I would go for either the {{tl|AU_countries}} solution (but that would make the hide button kind of pointless), or this one:
:*[[User:GunnarRene/Template:NATO]] - flag at the right of the members, title and hide bar spanning the member list and flag.

There. --[[User:GunnarRene|GunnarRene]] 20:22, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
::*I hadn't thought about the show/hide, but that is definitely now on my list of things to have, especially for articles with multiple infoboxes.

:::Ok, I think I figured it out. [[:File:Flag_of_NATO.svg]] is a copyrighted image and per [[WP:NONFREE]] a copyrighted image (aka non-free) can only be used on very, very specific articles. See the image page for info on how this is documented. I remember reading somewhere, but cannot find the link just now, that non-free images cannot be used in templates. For instance, the logo of a professional sports team is copyrighted and cannot be on a template listing the team's roster. I don't quite understand how a flag can be copyrighted, but maybe it's a European law thing.<small> &mdash;&nbsp;[[User:MrDolomite|MrDolomite]]&nbsp;&bull;&nbsp;[[User talk:MrDolomite|Talk]]</small> 15:20, 4 February 2009 (UTC)

== Protected over RoM issue ==

I've protected the template for now.

:As I said above, since NATO calls it FYROM, there is some sense in using that on the NATO template, but for consistency, and because Republic of Macedonia is a unique and descriptive name until any of the other Macedonias become republics, Republic of Macedonia it is. See [[Talk:Macedonia|Talk:FYROM]] for the whoe discussion. --[[User:GunnarRene|GunnarRene]] 12:30, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

::Actually, we have a [[WP:MOSMAC|manual of style]] that prescribes very specifically the nomenclature to be used in cases such as these.

== Propose change from armed forces pages to state pages ==

The links for member states should direct to those states, rather than to their armed forces, as NATO does many events and actions not directly associated with the armed forces of states.
