Must remembers:

 * If a new game/EP/SP is released, update Template:MGL and Template:Vgcode. --I am  k6ka  Talk to me!   See what I have done  22:41, September 11, 2015 (UTC)

Change Template:Vgcode from "Store" to "TS3STORE"
You know why...

Category:Geniuses and Category:Geniuses (The Sims 4)
Geniuses from TS3 and TS4 should be separated in different categories. Right now our templates do not automatically add trait categories; that should be done. This will be a significant project that will likely expand beyond these two categories, and it may require a community discussion for consensus.

Special:Disambiguations
Need some brave volunteers to clear out the backlog there. Tools like popups (if configured to do so) and AWB can help with this task. — k6ka  🍁 ( Talk ·  Contributions ) 14:31, June 26, 2017 (UTC)

Update Template:GetTraitCat to include TS4 trait categories
Right now people are manually adding trait cats when there are templates to do this. Those templates need to be updated and then the redundant categories removed to bring our TS4 Sim articles in line with our TS3 articles. — k6ka  🍁 ( Talk ·  Contributions ) 13:27, June 29, 2017 (UTC)


 * ✅ GetTraitCat has been updated! The redundant categories still need to be removed. In addition, it was discovered that a large number of needed category pages have not yet been created, so that's another thing that needs to be done. — k6ka  🍁 ( Talk ·  Contributions ) 19:08, June 29, 2017 (UTC)

Resource groups in S3PE
These are located in the .nhd and the TravelDB.package files. If you shred them all you could lose stuff. Best to go through manually and select the ones you want to delete. Oh, and deleting them in-game doesn't delete them here, apparently.
 * IMG

If you want to go nuclear but keep the ones that matter to you, or if you've got way too many of these darn resources and it's going to take too much time to clear out, follow this guide.

If your Sims travel, get ready for a wonderful glitch: the game will save IMGs normally only located in the TravelDB.package file in both that and the .nhd file! If you travel frequently, be sure to delete from these files regularly. The others are... I have no idea what the heck they do, but probably best you didn't touch them...
 * 0x0269D005: memory snapshots, camera photos, still life, and portrait paintings.
 * 0x024B9FCA: seasons greeting card photos
 * 0x02722299: prom pictures

These are located in the .nhd file only. They mostly consist of Sim portrait poses and thumbnails that are generated by the CAS system every single time CAS does something, and the game will never reuse existing resources, so it'll just build up in this file, slowly increasing load and save times until the game chokes on itself and you get wonderful save/load game errors.
 * SNAP

You can just go nuclear and delete all of them. You may notice some lag as the game regenerates the SNAP resources that it really needs, but that should clear once it's done. See for more details.
 * 0x00000000, 0x00000001, 0x00100000, 0x00000005, and 0x00100001: Sim portrait poses (And good grief, do they build up; the game doesn't reuse old resources so it'll just keep generating new ones!)
 * 0x00200000: smaller Sim thumbnails, presumably used when the change clothes dialog is open
