Folio 170a. The man who made modern illustration has been confirmed as credible source on many occasions. He is behind the sites such as Aspilogia.com and so on. Finellach (talk) 22:24, 20 June 2016 (UTC)

BTW you are right, it is most likely that the arms with three lions is in fact FitzMatthew...I just noticed it appears in Historia Anglorum. Still the colors are reversed. Cheerio. Finellach (talk) 23:07, 20 June 2016 (UTC)

Categorization[edit]

With over 13000 files, I propose that we add categories for each file, so that arms containing the same charge may be grouped properly.

Also, this is the closest thing I could think of in order to find arms by blazon.

For example, the Capet arms is categorized as Fleur-de-lys.

Arms containing more than one charge would have several categories, until each and every charge contained in the arms had been identified.

If a charge cannot be identified, it should also be categorized as 'Unidentified Charge', even if the other charges could be identified. If another user could identify the charge, the 'Unidentified Charge' category for that specific arms should be deleted and replaced with the proper identification. -NSamson (talk) 02:28, 24 June 2018 (UTC)

This is a great idea, but personally I don't really think its feasible given the sparse amount of members this wiki has. Novov (talk) 08:50, 24 June 2018 (UTC)

-Are you absolutely sure there are no more arms with baton and label above? I just found one more but I have a really strange feeling I missed at least two more out there. The reason why I reverted you. Anyway I rv back with slight modification (reduced lenght by a couple of pixels since they looked like touching almost) and updated the "bonus" one. Can you please check around? Would do it myself but am quite tired today...[[User:Finellach|Finellach]] ([[User talk:Finellach|talk]]) 19:45, 30 April 2016 (UTC)

-Why did you change the names and removed South Slavic orthographic letters? Also what you named "Eusebiovic" or whatever is well established to be '''Enzeblovic'''. And second, South Slavic names ending with an ''i'' such as ''Frankopani'' is a plural form of name...equivalent of writing it ''Frankopan's'' in English so it looks weird. There are also two other minor changes to Burmasovic which you renamed to Burmazovic and Dinjic to Diknic. You must understand that what is written in Fojnica (or Neoric armorial) is not an English variant of the name, it is a pre-standardized way of spelling, when certain sounds didn't have separate signs but were formed out of other letters or combinations of them. Also Korenic-Neoric is quite older armorial so if you are looking for a "standard" you should always go with the older source.
