Change the flag to the French one for the football template, as they still use the tricolour according to FIFA [1]. The Oceania Football Confederation site [2] doesn't have flags so I don't know their stance. Seems too much effort changing ' New Caledonia' to '{{fb|NCL|1853}}' if they don't use their local flag for the sport. VEO one five 14:04, 6 November 2011 (UTC)

Hello. Could somebody please change the default flag for New Caledonia that is File:Flags of New Caledonia.svg with File:Flag of FLNKS.svg? The former is not the actual flag of the French territory but an artificial and unofficial stitching of the two official flags on the islands. Thank-you. -- Neve – selbert 03:07, 23 June 2016 (UTC)
Well, that new default look of the template is very ugly.
If it is essential that both flags be displayed, I think they'd better be displayed separately, something like that:
The stitching could be mistaken for being a single flag with an especially large width-to-height ratio. As Neve-selbert said it, it's "misleading at best and a blatant fabrication at worst", and I'd add it raises WP:NOR issues. And even if it stays, it probably needs some other default size. The current width restriction makes it too tiny.
The template must at least be enabled to produce the Kanak flag alone (bolded because this is the actual request). Now it can produce either the French tricolour alone or the stitching of the two, but not the Kanak flag only. I think this is sufficiently uncontroversial so I'm reactivating the {{ edit template-protected}}.
And it's a good idea to discuss when to use either flag or both flags of New Caledonia. For Northern Ireland, the Ulster Banner is displayed in sports contexts, even though Northern Ireland has no official flag on its own, the only official flag there being UK's Union Jack. There are also a number of sports flags for Taiwan (Chinese Taipei). And so on. -- Theurgist ( talk) 05:03, 25 June 2016 (UTC)

New Caledonia. I also added a french
variant for the Tricolore, because of the semantic difference with the 1853
variant.

Can this one New Caledonia please be made the default one, as to reflect the current legal situation? To portray the FLNKS flag as the default sole New Caledonia flag simply isn't true. Worse, considering how polemical the matter is, it make wikipedia appear non neutral on the issue. Both flags are in use.-- Aréat ( talk) 00:53, 5 November 2018 (UTC)
Condisering the change of the main page on Flags of New Caledonia, can someone edit the template here so that New Caledonia show what is currently "both". Thanks.-- Aréat ( talk) 15:34, 30 January 2019 (UTC)
The consensus is that the default setting of this template should be the "both" setting to be consistent with the consensus at Flags of New Caledonia that both flags are displayed side-by-side.

Is there a technical reason this can't be corrected in the {{ flaglist}} template so that both flags are shown at full size side by side with the text to the right of both flags? Without the text overlapping the flags.
The recent consensus higher up was that both flags must be shown. See this section higher up: #Default setting
