{{flagXXX|code|games|athletes}}
- code is the three-letter country code used by the IOC, CGF, or FINA.
- games is a string with slightly different forms depending on the template used:
- {{flag IOC 2}} takes values in the form
<year> <games>, or just<games> - {{flag IOC}} and {{flag IPC}} use
<year> Summer,<year> Winter, or justSummerorWinter - Games-specific templates such as {{flag CGF}}, {{flag PASO}}, etc, simply take the
<year>. See below for a full list of supported "shortcut" templates
- {{flag IOC 2}} takes values in the form
- The intent is that this template can be used from medal tables and event result tables to point to the right country page. Also, the correct historical flag is chosen based on this string, for countries that had different flags in the past.
- athletes is the number of athletes that the nation contributed to the specific Games. It is an optional argument, and will render a small (#) after the nation's name.

Alternatives to avoid Wikipedia's Post-expand include size limit
Pages with many flag icons may come close to or exceed Wikipedia's Post-expand include size limit. In these cases consider {{#invoke:flag|IOC}}/{{#invoke:flag|IOC 2}} instead. For basic use, {{flag IOC|country|games}} can be replaced with {{#invoke:flag|IOC|country|games}}.
