This is not the coat of arms of the Republic of Karelia, it is already here: File:Coat of Arms of Republic of Karelia.svg
Also the coat of arms of East Karelia in 1920-1922 exists: File: Coat of Arms of East Karelia (1920-1922).svg 85.76.17.179 06:30, 18 November 2020 (UTC)

- @85.76.17.179: So what is this file? I think we can rename it instead of deleting it. (｀・ω・´) (talk) 15:23, 18 November 2020 (UTC)
Delete All, he appears to be a troll account - I found this page because I was looking for how to report the fact he's created a false Coat of Arms for North Caucasus (not Karelia), based on a false FLAG of North Caucasus that was uploaded six years ago to Wiki and nobody noticed. This looks like a huge problem on Wiki that the Coats of Arms and Flags of "minor" and "historical" territories are not questioned or sourced. This Karelia one does appear as Karelia since 2019 on https://www.shutterstock.com/image-vector/east-karelia-coat-arm-350639153 though, so not 100% it's fake.I cannot tell, I mean his Caucasus one seems to be a personal re-invention of the Coat of Arms shown on their money, combined with a misunderstanding of their flag based on the separately uploaded flag of six years ago that turned the Islamic flag into a smiley face...maybe that is legit of Wiki to freehand draw a copy of something for which there is no good historical reference? Maybe it's actually even useful? HaltlosePersonalityDisorder (talk) 14:27, 3 December 2020 (UTC)
- This is the coat of arms of Kalevala, not East Karelia! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalevala,_Russia — Preceding unsigned comment added by Woudhanaz (talk • contribs) 10:06, 2 April 2021 (UTC)
Keep Should be renamed rather than deleted. If someone is confident of what the correct name should be, please request it with {{Rename}}. 
Delete per Fenn-O-maniC below - no educational purpose as the file is incorrect and unused. -M.nelson (talk) 21:07, 3 August 2021 (UTC)
- Delete The file is modified from old version of File: Coat of Arms of East Karelia (1920-1922).svg which I created with elements from File:Turun_ja_Porin_lääni.vaakuna.svg. I redrew the original file based on the original designs of the arms, making this file incorrect in style. As for the coat of arms of the city of Kalevala, File:Kalevala_Coat_of_Arms.svg exists and it too has different style. --Fenn-O-maniC (talk) 10:43, 2 August 2021 (UTC)
