Edit Request: Gibraltar
[edit]This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request. |
Would someone mind adding support for the country Gibraltar (country code GIB
).
The only post-nominals I'm aware of within Gibraltar are MP, for Members of the Gibraltar Parliament.
Currently some pages use the UK's MP post-nominal, which is inappropriate in cases where the post-nominal is due to membership of the Gibraltar Parliament.
My current workaround is {{post-nominals|country=GIB|size=100%|list=[[Member of parliament|MP]]|MP}}

- This would require creating Template:Post-nominals/GIB (compare Template:Post-nominals/GBR), which does not require any advanced permissions. * Pppery * it has begun... 19:52, 28 May 2024 (UTC)
- Thank You, I've done that now Recollect4741 (talk) 22:32, 29 May 2024 (UTC)

There's no option for the postnom FRSA for Canada. It should be above FRSC. Aknell4 (talk · contribs) 02:09, 9 June 2024 (UTC)
- The Royal Society of Arts is international and uses the same post nominal globally (I am a fellow). Nford24 (PE121 Personnel Request Form) 03:55, 9 June 2024 (UTC)
- Either way,
{{post-nominals|country=CAN|FRSA}}
doesn't display anything. Aknell4 (talk · contribs) 14:41, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
- Either way,

[edit]for the British Empire, include the option ICS for Indian Civil Service. example on M. R. Sachdev. Juwan (talk) 03:13, 16 July 2024 (UTC)

"For loop" error
[edit]This template is causing a "Template loop detected" error at Portal:Maldives/Selected_articles#Selected_articles_13. @Pppery: you may be able to help, or perhaps to determine that it doesn't really matter. – Fayenatic London 09:24, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
- I'm inclined to not care - that page is extremely obscure and the error won't show up if the entry gets selected to be transcluded onto the base portal. * Pppery * it has begun... 14:26, 17 July 2024 (UTC)

In Template:Post-nominals/GBR, change CH = [[Companion of Honour|CH]] to CH = [[Order of the Companions of Honour|CH]] as per the proper Wiki article name. Zimbabweed (talk) 21:13, 22 August 2024 (UTC)
- Companion of Honour is a redirect that targets Order of the Companions of Honour, so not done per WP:NOTBROKEN. P.I. Ellsworth , ed. put'er there 15:31, 23 August 2024 (UTC)
