{{flaglink|country|link|variant=optional|size=optional|name=optional}}

Produces a flag icon attached to a wikilinked article. The name of the country is the prefix of the wikilink, but the display text is just the name of the country by itself.

For example, {{flaglink|Brazil|at the 2007 Pan American Games}} has the same effect as {{flagicon|Brazil}} [[Brazil at the 2007 Pan American Games|Brazil]], both producing:  [[{{{alias}}} at the 2007 Pan American Games|{{{alias}}}]].
