Dates edit
I changed the font for dates to be small for presentation purposes.
In doing so, I changed the "date" of St. Patrick's cross to "unknown origin". It was never adopted as a state flag in Ireland and it's origins and use prior to 1801 are unknown. I also removed reference to a distinction between IKGBI and UKGBNI as there has only ever been one UK, the current one. While there was consideration given to changing the flag in 1922, it never happened. --RA (talk) 18:33, 4 June 2012 (UTC)
