flags

Is there any good reason we are using:

{{ListFlag|Flag of the Australian Capital Territory.svg|28px}}[[Australian Capital Territory]], rendering as Australian Capital Territory

rather than the rather simpler, shorter:

{{flag|Australian Capital Territory}}, rendering as Australian Capital Territory

in the table in the Vaccination rollout by states and territory section?
The only diff I can see is the flag is a little smaller done the second way. 220 of ^ßorg 04:51, 25 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@220 of Borg: I've just removed the flags anyways since they violate MOS:FLAGRELEVANCE - this article has nothing to do with the actual regionality of Australia, so I don't believe sub-national flags should be used. I may be wrong though, so feel free to revert and change it to {{Flag}}. ItsPugle (please ping on reply) 04:54, 25 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@ItsPugle: No, I thought that they were misplaced was likely too. They just looked messy IMHO. Too many flags used, too many flag templates too IMHO, again.
The 'ListFlag' version isn't used much, <200? the other, over 550,000! 220 of ^ßorg 05:07, 25 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Second doses

Also do you think some of the doses included in the totals are second doses and do you think any sources are distinguishing them as first/second doses? HelperAnt (talk) 01:33, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
