Dealing with DABs

Is there any way to make {{fb|USA}} point directly to United States men's national soccer team and not the DAB United States national soccer team article? If not, then I think {{USAf}} should not be replaced with the {{fb}} template. Neier 12:17, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

Yes, there is, but I am still working on the implementation. I will announce when the transition is complete on Misplaced Pages talk:WikiProject Football. Note that I have not replaced any instances of {{USAf}} yet for precisely this reason. I will only make replacements when the {{fb}} version is a "perfect" replacement.

Comment: The USA isn't the only country with a nonstandard national team article. I'm sure there are a couple of others, but I know these off the top of my head. — Dale Arnett 03:00, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

Yes, I know this. As I mentioned on the project talk page, 189 out of 207 FIFA codes currently work because they use the standard article name format. I am currently sandboxing a solution for the other 18, plus an assortment of non-FIFA teams. However, I am not replacing any that aren't 100% compatible. Please be patient for me to get the remainder working. Andrwsc 03:18, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
I forgot to follow up, but all these are working properly now (avoiding the dab page). Andrwsc 00:24, 6 July 2007 (UTC)

Ireland

Using {{fb|Ireland}} gives  Ireland, however looking at MOS:FLAGS this would seem to be a breach of the section "Inventing new flags and using non-flag stand-ins", does anyone know where the use of the St.Patrick's Soltaire comes from in relation to Irish Soccer? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Fasach Nua (talk • contribs)

Better to ask this question at Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Football. This template merely simplifies the rendering of the flag and wikilink for the long-standing consensus of how the IFA team is represented before it was called "Northern Ireland". (Use {{fb|Northern Ireland}} for that.) Andrwsc (talk) 16:49, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
