[Feature Request]: Re-use content between alternate flags #8

Open s-thom opened 1 year ago

Describe the feature

Some identities have multiple flags representing them, and people will want to use the flag they most identify with. This inevitable ends up duplicating the description of those identities across multiple Markdown files. We'd need to remember to update all flags that represent the same identity, or figure out some way to share that across different files.

To add to this problem, some flags have direct variants that follow the same history (e.g. 5 stripe and 7 stripe variants of the lesbian and gay man flags). In those cases, the text content might all be the same, or there might be slight differences between them (say, to link to the other variants).

I guess this ends up being a bit of a discussion around how we solve this problem.
