[edit] National Flower/Animal
Shouldn't National Flower and Animal be removed from the Template? I don't think there are many countries that have national flowers or animals.
[edit] Favorite song?
I would suggest National song as a simplification of anthem, except that it already says "National anthem". Apparently it used to be National song: [1] So let's delete the word "Favorite", OK? - PhilipR 18:57, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- No one ever replied, so I'm going to be bold and change it. - PhilipR 16:33, 19 Jun 2005 (UTC)
