I, 12theif, Think that a big, well known section shouldn't nominate a big article. We should nominate a page most people don't look at, like the Oracle Turret, who is not even mentioned on the turrets page. Most people would vote for caroline because they like that character, or wheatley. Thats not me. I vote for the Oracle Turret. –12||theif: Zap! 01:20, 15 November 2011 (UTC)
