    • ✓ Done Thanks for the review--Ermell 21:16, 27 September 2016 (UTC)
      •  Comment - I edited your English-language description. If you put "Wappen des Hochstifts Würzburg" into Google Translate, you get "Coat the bishopric Würzburg", but that phrase makes no sense in English. My version is "Coat of arms of the bishopric of Würzburg above the entrance to the presbytery in Prölsdorf in Steigerwald". Is this accurate? I'll  Support, because there's certainly no problem with the photograph being a QI, but if I got any of the meaning of the description wrong, please edit. -- Ikan Kekek 07:32, 28 September 2016 (UTC)
      •  Comment There is no "CoA of the Bishopric of Würzburg". Every bishop has his own CoA, even today. There are some clues in the design, I'll search. Please don't promote before. CoA must be identified, like flowers, cars or animals. Thanks.--Jebulon 08:07, 28 September 2016 (UTC)
        • Gefunden ! https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johann_Philipp_von_Greiffenclau_zu_Vollraths. The question is : who was bishop of Würzburg in 1705 ? It was a "Fürstbischof" (visible because of the red hat), find the list in http://www.catholic-hierarchy.org , and make an attempt in our friend Google, and miracle (normal, it is a catholic bihop), an article in the german wp, with in addition another picture of the same CoA. Easy. Easier than to find a taxon of a plant, IMO. Just learn how to search. But we are encyclopaedists, aren't we ?--Jebulon 08:24, 28 September 2016 (UTC)
          • Good work, Jebulon! I had no idea each bishop had his own coat of arms. -- Ikan Kekek 08:37, 28 September 2016 (UTC)
          • It is a bit special for Germany, as some bishops were also "princes", and independant sovereigns of their bishopric. This means they were electors of the Emperor of the Holy German Roman Empire. You can see this with the hat (a coronet) "in crest". Nowadays, bishops have a green round hat with some green tassels like this. I find heraldry fascinating: it tells many stories, and it looks like "ancient comics". In the old days in Europe, everybody knew how to "read" and describe CoA. Please have a look to the notes, and to the new categories, already existing (I did not create any new category. Of course, this is not necessary for QI: only the name of the bearer). he following step is to know what is this kind of star (a spur ?), why this family had this objet in CoA, or why the CoA of Franken are so: it means something. Just be curious ! We have here specialists of heraldry, and even of ecclesiastic heraldry. I'm not such a specialist, but I may help, if needed. Thanks and sorry for too long comment.--Jebulon 09:53, 28 September 2016 (UTC)
            • Thanks a lot for your helpful work Jebulon. I was looking for mill wheals and a stream in CoA in Franconia. Vollrads means full wheal which could be the reason for displaying it in CoA? But it`s only a guess.--Ermell 22:09, 28 September 2016 (UTC)
