•  Oppose Łęczyca is not by now a voivodship but only a county of Poland. It was from XIV to XVIII century a voivodship but I am not convinced that the modern style of this drawing would fit with an historical coat of arms. Pretty work but not encyclopedial.B.navez 14:59, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
  • As filename says - it's COA of województwo łęczyckie (voivodship) in IRP, what means 1st Republic of Poland - Poland in XVII-XVIII century. Best known in the world Polish COAs are drawn by Taduesz Gajl, and are fully modern, 20th century design, but noone says that they are unhistorical :)--WarX 11:16, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
    • Sorry, but I don't understand : is it Bastianow's work or Gajl's ? Could you please translate exactly what is said on pl:Tadeusz Gajl about copyright rules  : (Herby gajlowskie są bardzo często wykorzystywane bez wiedzy autora, czego nie uniknęła również angielska wersja Wikipedii, jednak autor zaakceptował pozostawienie w niej jego grafik w niskiej rozdzielczości.) My knowledge of polish language is so low that I could misunderstand its meaning. B.navez 15:23, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
      • This particular one was drawn by Bastianowm, based on some historical materials and has nothing in common with Gajl's COAs (except that they are modern). Problem with Gajl is/was that people think that his works are historical, so are PD, and use scans of his works. He was informed about it and agreed to use low-res versions on Wikipedia, but problem is unsolved, because if he agreed on GFDL for low-res, he agreed for vectorization those images to resolution independent format (as derivative work from GFDLed image). The quote is COAs drawn by Gajl are often used without knowledge (and permission), what happen even to en.wiki, but author accepted publication of low-res images--WarX 15:32, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
