[edit] Working definition

The working definition seems to be "the three symbols of the Republic of Belarus as a sovereign state as defined by the Constitution of Belarus". --Arctic Gnome (talk • contribs) 16:20, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Vital improvements

The topic satisfies current criteria, and no vital improvements are needed to maintain status. --Arctic Gnome (talk • contribs) 16:20, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Potential improvements

The GAs could be promoted to FAs. The only non-FA is the lead article. --Arctic Gnome (talk • contribs) 16:20, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Possible additions

The following articles could potentially be added:

• List of flags of Belarus and List of Belarusian Coats of Arms
• Belarusian heraldry is somewhat related
• Belarusian referendum, 1995, which saw the introduction of the new national symbols approved, and Constitution of Belarus (already FA), which discusses this subject also
• Flag of the Byelorussian SSR and Anthem of the Byelorussian SSR, the Soviet flag and athem
• Pahonia, the coat of arms in 1918 and from 1991 to 1995
• Pogoń Litewska, Druck coat of arms and Trubetsky coat of arms were coats of arms of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth and Grand Duchy of Lithuania, which incorporated Belarus
