Fictional (consciously):

• {{Fake sports logo}} – for potentially serious confusion
• {{Fictional}} – proposed insignia ("flag", "sign", "seal", "CoA", …)
• {{Fake insignia}} — generic "faked" symbols, to facilitate identification but often not factually accurate to avoid copyright issues.

Generally:

• {{Removed caption read}} – from the image itself (more like a info)
