an editors point of view more a reflection of
Nationality. The template acknowledges that GBR is made up of more than one federation. I don't want to rant here but the federation has to follow the IOC charter and will be getting substantial funding from the IOC. Olympic involvement will only help golf with access to the IOC development program and funding. If the IGF wants to change the template they can do they have a user wikipedia user account and I will not edit it. I notice lots of factual information has been removed from the IGF page about governance of the sport rules.

template is for national members of the
International Golf Federation. The Olympics movement has nothing to do with the IGF, nor the way in which it is governed. The IGF alone is responsible for how it lists its national member federations. You will note that the IGF list England Golf, Scottish Golf Union, Scottish Ladies' Golfing Association Limited, and Golf Union of Wales in alphabetical order by their country's name, which is how they should be shown on this template.

As the creator of the template, and of almost all the equivalent templates for other federations. I have been consistent in using only IOC country codes which is GBR this is what athlete will have to qualify and compete under for the games. Grouping these nations doesn't seem unreasonable and is not

What we are specifically talking about is
England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. The IGF admits that it has more members than countries for this reason so the initial layout seems fair. My preference would be to leave the list as it is until 2015 when we will know whether GBR will compete as

Thank you for discussing this. Btw, you are mistaken in thinking that
Northern Ireland has a member federation in the IGF. It has not. Northern Ireland is represented by the Golfing Union of Ireland and the Irish Ladies' Golf Union. However, none of the points made above have been addressed. This
