- Speedy keep. This is not a copyright violation per COM:COA. I created this myself. — ʷiḳỉℳẚṅ₫¡₳ (talk) 20:07, 10 February 2018 (UTC)

- See above. They most certainly do not own the copyright to the coat of arms that I created. COM:COA applies. I created that file myself based on a blazon. That blazon is Quarterly vert and argent, a cross flory counterchanged between in the first and fourth quarters a roundel ermine and in the second and third quarters a crescent gules. I can legally create my own interpretation of what that coat of arms should look like and upload it to Commons. I did not steal any art from their site and post it - this is their version on the college website and FYI, I think mine is better and since I uploaded it to Wikimedia Commons, the university is free to use my version. Additionally, there are multiple copies of the arms already online in Category:Girton College, Cambridge so I don't know why you keep trying to delete only mine. Please familiarize yourself with how coats of arms are handled on Wikimedia Commons and stop creating frivolous deletion requests. — ʷiḳỉℳẚṅ₫¡₳ (talk) 04:23, 15 February 2018 (UTC)
Kept: no valid reason for deletion - The copyright for a CoA created from the blazon is owned by the creator, not the institution represented by the CoA. . Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 12:27, 16 February 2018 (UTC)
