Expanding the list

The following ballet dancers in the Category:Ballet dancers seem to have not enough info on them in Misplaced Pages and not enough illustration material, so better not include them into the list right now:

Flag icons (?)

Why is this article using flag icons for the nationality of the listed dancers -- especially on a list Russian dancers? If no one responds to this query in the next ten days, I propose to remove the flags as an inappropriate use per WP:FLAGICON. Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 09:07, 16 October 2015 (UTC)

I strongly concur; this is not what flag icons are for.  — SMcCandlish ☺ ☏ ¢ ≽ⱷ҅ᴥⱷ≼  00:12, 10 November 2015 (UTC)
You probably meant WP:MOSFLAG. Concur. A minimal possible unility is marred by the fact that Russian Empire and modern Russia are not distinguished. - üser:Altenmann >t 04:24, 10 November 2015 (UTC)
