This template is transcluded if a flag template is used without the first parameter, or with an empty first parameter. It can be used to place an "invisible" flag icon, as an alternative to using {{noflag}} (which adds a tag with padding at the size of a flag icon), if one item in a list of items with flags shouldn't have a flag icon. For example:
Western Sahara ({{flagicon|}} [[Western Sahara]])
which looks the same as
- {{country data Western Sahara|noflag/core|variant=|size=|name=}} ({{noflag|[[Western Sahara]]}})
