Symbols[edit]

@Ra1han:, you are duplicating symbols. Your own source shows this. The webpage is referring to the national symbols of the Russian Federation, which are the national flag and coat of arms. The coat of arms without the red shield is used by ministries, as can be seen on the main page. Only one should be used. Fry1989 ^eh? 16:57, 19 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Ra1han:, you said to do this on the talk page. Do you intend to reply or not? If not, I will have to get some other users input. Fry1989 ^eh? 16:27, 22 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Fry1989:, https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/e/e3/Russiatourism_Letter_No_7316.pdf As it can be seen in the official document and also as the reference link of the coat of arm, the agency always use the coat of arm in all official documents it publishes. On the other hand, use the emblem on its official website. Also, the government of Russian Federation website and Ministry of Transport website use the emblem for the agency. An emblem and a coat of arm are two different things. In this case, they are being used in two different type of representation of the agency, one is on the web and other is in the paper document and press media. Therefore both are similarly important to display in the article.Ra1han (talk) 07:34, 25 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Your source is clearly about the national symbols of the country, not the agency. The coat of arms of Russia with and without the shield are two variations of the same thing. This is absolutely unnecessary. If you will not pick one, I will have to initiate a RfC. Fry1989 ^eh? 17:51, 29 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Both sources are clearly of the agency and about the agency, not about the country. The agency is under direct federal legislation and uses common emblem and coat of arm as the state in their official website and official document, also they suggested media to use the same coat of arms to represent them, as per the source.Ra1han (talk) 07:56, 11 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
