	* I'm not sure it's necessary either, and the wording "nominated to be split" bugs me--in general, one nominates something ''for'' something, not ''to'' something. I'm not a big fan of the idea of sticking a banner up for splits in general because discussions about them tend to be a lot shorter-lived than renames--most of the time, it's pretty clear when a page does or does not need to be split. Powers/examples and portals all have general (if frequently unstated) guidelines, and histories and the like split at season breaks. In fact, outside of the timeline, I can't think of a place we'd use this; I'd hate to see a banner on a portal, for example.--[[User:Hardvice\|Hardvice]] <small>[[User talk:Hardvice\|(talk)]]</small> 19:46, 4 November 2007 (EST)		* I'm not sure it's necessary either, and the wording "nominated to be split" bugs me--in general, one nominates something ''for'' something, not ''to'' something.
