| |
− | Since the popularity of the now-discontinued Scream Fortress IV weapon/cosmetic/voice spells have been slightly rising as of late (probably due to SF2020 coming soon and the community not having all that much to talk about aside from it), I'd choose it as October's article due to it being:
| |
− | *- Mostly perfect from a content perspective.
| |
− | *- Nicely presentable to anyone unaware of the subject in question.
| |
− | *- In-season.
| |
− | And also bringing more attention to something that is, quite strangely, unknown to most of the community (despite the aforementioned rise in attention).

− | :: But still, does it have the quality and completeness for FA? A quick skim shows some update is needed, at least.
