Self-nom. Based on List of state symbols of Maryland which is already a FL. T Rex | talk 07:49, 13 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment What is the Eastern Oyster doing under "Geology"?
- Fixed T Rex | talk 06:42, 14 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Aside I can't be the only one to think we should try to have at least the featured lists have a similar name format? If this is promoted, we will have 3 lists of the exact same topic in three different naming format (List of state symbols of X, List of X state insignia and List of X state symbols)..

- I agree, we should try. There is a template for these lists({{State symbols}}), where "List of X state symbols" is the most popular choice. We can start from there. --Crzycheetah 06:23, 14 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Agreed. Renata 05:30, 16 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- I chose that name because that was what the redlink was called on the template mentioned above. T Rex | talk 06:42, 14 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- I invite everyone to discuss this matter at the tamplate's talk page. --Crzycheetah 22:29, 18 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

- Fixable oppose: lead is too short. Also, just a silly note, I would rather go with no pic than with this one. Renata 05:30, 16 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- I'm not sure what more could be added without going too detailed. T Rex | talk 05:30, 19 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Why is there no slogan? Is Virginia for lovers? I also see that there are 18 symbols here compared to Maryland's 25 and Kentucky's 41. Do I have to worry that this list is incomplete?--Crzycheetah 23:10, 19 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]- Some of the symbols that are on Kentucky and Maryland are only on a few states. Virginia simply doesn't have these. I'll get a pic fo there slogan right away. T Rex | talk 13:46, 22 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Why did you add the license plate? Is it an official symbol of Virginia?--Crzycheetah 01:03, 23 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Official state license plate, and it is considered a symbol by {{State insignia}}. T Rex | talk 10:10, 23 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Conditional support I'll fully support as soon as images for slogan and license plate are verified.--Crzycheetah 22:40, 23 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

- (unident) You mean like cited? T Rex | talk 22:54, 23 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- I am not sure whether you can use those images here. I want some fair-use expert give his opinion before I fully support.--Crzycheetah 07:22, 24 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
