adding

__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"headingLevel":2,"name":"h-","type":"heading","level":0,"id":"h-adding","replies":[]}}-->

Does anyone mind me adding this to the various country pages? I've asked as well on the main commonwealth talk pages. I'll go ahead and do it for now. If anyone has any objections then we'll see if we can sort it out. - Chrism 17:50, 18 Feb 2004 (UTC)

it would be best to switch this template to the Foreign relations of <COUNTRYNAME> articles (if it exists, and they do for most countries), some people don't like these templates to clutter up the main country articles. i've done this for Australia at Foreign relations of Australia. clarkk 01:06, 8 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Sorting order

__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"headingLevel":2,"name":"h-","type":"heading","level":0,"id":"h-Sorting_order","replies":[]}}-->

In what order is this list sorted? -- Kaihsu 15:23, 2004 Feb 20 (UTC)

I have been wondering the same thing for some days. Morwen 15:26, Feb 20, 2004 (UTC)

It seems to move from Europe to the Americas and then to Africa and then Asia and then Oceania. Perhaps in the order of increasing distance from the home nations? -- Kaihsu 15:29, 2004 Feb 20 (UTC)

It's basically the order on the Commonwealth page - by continent, then by date of membership. - Chrism 18:41, 20 Feb 2004 (UTC)

Erk. Can it be made alphabetical or by contintent, then alphaetically? It looks random at the moment. Morwen 18:42, Feb 20, 2004 (UTC)

Remove India's "dependencies"

__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"headingLevel":2,"name":"h-","type":"heading","level":0,"id":"h-Remove_India's_\"dependencies\"","replies":[]}}-->

Can established users please remove the dependency entries for India (i.e. Andaman & Nicobar Islands and Lakshadweep) because they dont fit into this catagory. See the exact definitions in these 2 articles: Dependent territory and Union Territory of India.

Background color removed. Fiji has been kept (and Pakistan re-added) since our article says that suspended members are still considered members of the organization.
