Removal of spurious entries

Removed the following entries from the "Unofficial symbols" list:

  • Gusle, opanci, sljiva & cevapi. Removed these because they are pretty much universal in Ottoman Balkans. They might be "unofficial national symbols" even so, I couldn't say, but if such a claim is to be made it needs sourcing. The wolf as the "unofficial mammal" needs sourcing as well; likely enough someone just thought it was "cool" to list it.
  • White Eagle. The White Eagle was listed as a "national animal" - which it is not. No such animal exists: its a heraldic symbol from the late Byzantine Empire and is already mentioned as such as part of the coat of arms.
  • Samo sloga Srbina spasava. This is indeed the national motto but the ocila on the Serbian Cross (or rather the Palaiologan Cross) DO NOT stand for it. Those are letters beta, and that is the dynastic symbol of the Palaiologos dynasty (a symbol of the Roman Empire). The motto is rather the popular interpretation of the betas from the cross, not their actual meaning (which is likely "Basileus Basileon, Basileuon Basileuonton").

Move back to National symbols of Serbia

We have recently moved a number of Symbols of <country> to National symbols of <country> per the subcategory naming convention in parent cat Category:National symbols by nation, latest was National symbols of Poland requested by Piotrus at WP:RM/TR. @Zoupan: Should we boldly move back? — Sam Sailor 14:14, 8 September 2016 (UTC)

Clearly, both the category and the main article at national symbol support the move of this to national symbols of Serbia. PS. Even the relevant template is Template:National symbols of Serbia. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 15:45, 8 September 2016 (UTC)

Sure, go ahead.--Zoupan 02:22, 9 September 2016 (UTC)
