===February 2016 - proper drawing of en soleil or irradiated===
===Example===
Gwen Howell. Badge. (Fieldless) A pomegranate gules seeded Or slipped and leaved vert within and conjoined to a mascle gules irradiated Or.
This badge is returned for redraw. Blazoned as en soleil, the mascle is not en soleil since that would have rays issuant from the entirety of its outline. We have registered charges en soleil, or to use the alternative term, irradiated, in the past, but always with the entire outer edge issuing solar rays. This is not en soleil, or irradiated, or any other equivalent term. Neither is it simply enflamed, since it has straight rays as well as wavy. This cannot be reliably or reproducibly blazoned, and therefore is not registerable.
 
Because of the rays issuing from the outer edge of the mascle, the design does not suffer from presumption upon the protected symbol of the Red Crystal, a symbol protected by treaty for the use of the International Committee of the Red Cross. We are protecting it as A gules mascle on any argent background or in any way that could be displayed on an argent background. We note that the presence of the pomegranate in the middle of the mascle would not be sufficient to prevent the presumption as, by international treaty, for indicative use on foreign territory, a national society which does not use one of the recognized symbols as its emblem has to incorporate its unique symbol into the Red Crystal.
