The coat of arms needs a valid fair use rationale for each article that it belongs in.

I was unaware that the image was non-free. I have in fact replaced it with a free version that was available on Commons. Thanks for pointing it out. -- Chris B • talk 14:13, 15 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

This article isn't that broad in its coverage. It doesn't describe what exactly any of the coat of arms means. What does the tree mean? What do the 3 trees mean? What is the blue stuff under the trees? Things like that need to be answered in the article.

Alava has an accent in its first mention but not in its second, best to stay consistent.

That's pretty much it, but a pretty fascinating article so far. Just fix those problems and leave a note on my talk page and I'll come back to check. T Rex | talk 05:47, 15 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for meeting my concerns. This article has passed as a GA. You may want to take a look at Coat of arms of Canada or Coat of arms of Amsterdam for ideas on improving it. Congratulations! T Rex | talk 03:07, 16 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Thank you! -- Chris B • talk 06:09, 16 October 2007 (UTC)Reply
