Varrock
To kick-off this month's voting for Featured Article, I nominate Varrock, because it has information on any imaginable aspect of the city, and much general information. 08:41, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

Support - Great article. It's got information on not only the conventional features like shops, NPCs, and banks, but it also explains stuff about the city's history, politcal standing, etc. Morian Smith 14:45, 2 December 2007 (UTC)
