Errors
If the template generates errors when calculating data for the Gini or HDI fields, it will add the article to Category:Country articles requiring maintenance. This only happens if the page is in the main article space, not any other namespaces.
Microformat
The HTML mark up produced by this template includes an hCard microformat, which makes the place-name and location parsable by computers, either acting automatically to catalogue article across Wikipedia, or via a browser tool operated by a person, to (for example) add the subject to an address book. For more information about the use of microformats on Wikipedia, please see the microformat project.
If the place or venue has an "established", "founded", "opened" or similar date that is specific to the day, use {{start date}} unless the date is before 1583 CE. If it has a URL, use {{URL}}.
hCard uses HTML classes including:
- adr
- category
- country-name
- extended-address
- fn
- label
- locality
- nickname
- note
- org
- street-address
- url
- vcard
Please do not rename or remove these classes nor collapse nested elements which use them.

Notes
- ^ There is no authorised version of the national anthem as the words are a matter of tradition; only the first verse is usually sung.[1]
- ^ Scots, Ulster Scots, Welsh, Cornish, Scottish Gaelic and Irish are classed as regional or minority languages under the Council of Europe's European Charter for Regional or Minority Languages.[2] These include defined obligations to promote those languages.[3][4][5] See also Languages of the United Kingdom. Welsh has limited de jure official status in Wales, as well as in the provision of national government services provided for Wales.
- ^ "This category could include Polish responses from the country specific question for Scotland which would have been outputted to 'Other White' and then included under 'White' for UK. 'White Africans' may also have been recorded under 'Other White' and then included under 'White' for UK."
- ^ 83.6% are White British/Irish.
- ^ Although the United Kingdom has traditionally been seen as a unitary state, an alternative description of the UK as a "union state", put forward by, among others, Vernon Bogdanor,[8] has become increasingly influential since the adoption of devolution in the 1990s.[9] A union state is considered to differ from a unitary state in that while it maintains a central authority it also recognises the authority of historic rights and infrastructures of its component parts.[10][11]
- ^ Some of the devolved countries, Crown dependencies and British Overseas Territories issue their own sterling banknotes or currencies, or use another nation's currency. See List of British currencies for more information
- ^ Also in observed by the Crown dependencies, and in the two British Overseas Territories of Gibraltar and Saint Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha (though in the latter, without daylight saving time). For further information, see Time in the United Kingdom#British territories.
- ^ Except two overseas territories: Gibraltar and the British Indian Ocean Territory.
- ^ Excludes most overseas territories.
- ^ The .gb domain is also reserved for the UK, but has been little used.
