I just noticed that part 6072 (according to Peeron) has a really bad name right
now:  Crenelations 7 x 7.  Now, I really hate this piece, but it's been around
for eight years now and I would have had no idea what it was if I didn't own

a picture for Peeron, so people other than me would know about this part?

heh, good point - I had no idea what this part was, had to look up the
instructions on brickshelf, then dig up the part to make sure it was

I'll mostly agree with Clark and Heather.  For LDraw-ish-ness, I'd go with
"Castle Turret  7 x  7 x  2 & 1/3 Quarter".

If this part is ever modeled in LDraw, it's likely the existing part,
<http://guide.lugnet.com/partsref/search.cgi?q=6066>, would be renamed to
"Castle Turret  4 x  8 x  2 & 1/3 Top", to better match existing standards
of organizing names by "category", "general id", "size", "specific
description".
