 * Support I just spent 20 minutes reading the article and find it be an excellent city guide and well written. Can't get much cooler than a dwarven city. --Degenret01 23:23, 2 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Slight Oppose As much as I like the article, and the place too, and it could do with a little more attention from the general Runescape population, I think too many Location articles have been featured so far this year; this could be the 4th in 7 months, compared to just three in the previous year and a half. Maybe in a few months, but I think a skill article is desperately needed, as the last front page skill was last April. Khalron 09:56, 3 July 2008 (UTC)
