  • Strong Keep - the flags depicted are rarely used because both teams don't play on a yearly basis but play every 2 years, the template should be kept and if there is a problem with the flags, ask at WP:RU ...-- Comet styles 11:37, 14 October 2008 (UTC) reply
    Comment Can you prove the usage? I've never seen them, ever! Without the flag this template is pointless Gnevin ( talk) 15:07, 14 October 2008 (UTC) reply
  • Comment I am on the fence with respect to keep or delete, but have some additional information for other editors to consider. In both cases, I don't think the flags are ever directly stated to represent those teams (but perhaps there is an implicit statement). They are shortcuts, in a sense, of putting three or four flags next to these multi-national team names in match summaries. For example, instead of:
May 31 1980
South Africa 26 – 22   British and Irish Lions
Try: Louw c
W. du Plessis c
Van Heerden
Germishuys c
Serfontein
Con: Botha (3)
Try: Price
Pen: Ward (5)
Drop Ward
Attendance: 38,170
Referee: F Palmade France
One alternative would be:
May 31 1980
South Africa 26 – 22 England Scotland Ireland Wales  British and Irish Lions
Try: Louw c
W. du Plessis c
Van Heerden
Germishuys c
Serfontein
Con: Botha (3)
Try: Price
Pen: Ward (5)
Drop Ward
Attendance: 38,170
Referee: F Palmade France
and another alternative would be no flag(s) at all. If you look at the Lions or Pacific Islanders rugby union team articles, you'll see that the bottom of the infoboxes have all four or three flags and not just these artificially combined images, so really, these templates are only being used for match and team results as a more compact form of the multiple flags. I think the question that needs to be answered in this TfD is which is the best representation of these multi-national teams in results tables:
  • images that combine 3 or 4 flags into one rectangle the same size as individual flags (current template usage)
  • show all 3 or 4 flags for these teams
  • use no flag images at all.
