Editing Talk:United Kingdom (section)

==Flags==
Not for nothing but—strident miseducation in British schools aside—the UK is [[WP:BLUE|clearly]] a country as that term is applied both traditionally (synonym of "land") and presently ("generally recognized sovereign state") in the English language by the vast majority of its speakers. It's also (the textwalls above from people sure of sth that just ain't so aside), something that's been fully fleshed out and debated at exhaustive length in the archives (which is where the unhelpful textwalls should be moved to asap).

''That said'', '''we ''should'' still have the English, Scottish, Welsh, and N. Irish flags ''somewhere'' on the page''', even if the only natural location at the moment is the table in the Demographics section. They absolutely do ''also'' think of themselves as separate groups within this country with some devolved powers (even if most of "England"'s ''de facto'' exist in the London municipal gov't) and that's important to represent on the page.

After all, "if you don't have a flag, you can't have a country" (those are the rules that they made up) and they ''really'' don't want the Australians or Indians to start getting ideas. &mdash;&nbsp;[[Special:Contributions/61.218.138.181|61.218.138.181]] ([[User talk:61.218.138.181|talk]]) 03:26, 10 October 2024 (UTC)
:What's your point? We don't have the 50 states flags at the [[United States]] page, or the 10 provinces & 3 territories flags at the [[Canada]] page. Why would it be different here? [[User:GoodDay|GoodDay]] ([[User talk:GoodDay|talk]]) 19:23, 10 October 2024 (UTC)
