Category:Households
I've seen this category has been created twice. The question is, is it worth categorizing each household in the game into this category? There are countless of households in the series already, and it's rather difficult to define whether a group of Sims living together is a "family" or a "household". Also, there's nothing unique that differs a household from a regular family household. Should it really be kept? If it's kept, every single household has to be manually categorized with this.

 * Yeah, I was wondering about that myself. I can't think of how we could automatically categorize families into this category using the Family Infobox, so as you said it would all have to be done manually. I think it wouldn't be impossible to define a household... maybe we just say that it's a family where a majority of the members aren't related to each other. In any case, it's still impractical to try and set this up, so I support deletion. --  LostInRiverview talk ~ blog 16:20, June 7, 2014 (UTC)


 * Yup, in TS2 the only "households" were the university ones. Everything else was insertNameHere family. Yes, even if it was only one sim like Don Lothario, it showed "lothario family." The same for the Singles who were not actually related. They were still called "singles family". In TS3, everything is "household", from the Roomies to the Wan-Goddards to the Bunch'es to the Steel (who is only Chris). And yes, there's a lot of leeway on what consist as an "household". 3 relatives with a live-in roommate\estetician\personal trainer is apparently not an household, but if it's someone with her lover\boyfriend and adoptive son of only one of them, like the Belle's, it's apparently an household. But if the kid actually belongs to both of them, it's a family. But then the kid is unborn and the parents starts out as just lovers and are not even boyfriend\girlfriend, it's an household. And le such. The Bunch'es are clearly a family, but the Sunset Valley Roomies are clearly an household. But what about the Wan-Goddards, or the Andrews? It's really hard to define. Kaiko Mikkusu (talk) 17:01, June 10, 2014 (UTC)


 * You may have a point but I'm not support your answer. Firstly, the Wan-Goddards are basically engaged but (I don't know this) it's said that the household is entitled "family". But obviously, they are still entitled "household". And now the Andrews, clearly they are married, so no explanations to be given.


 * Now for the main discussion. This user added the category because of the titles of the households. And Kaiko is doing the same thing but meaningful. And it is true that Sims that entitled "household" are mostly friends or friends with their daughters/sons. In TS2 and TS3 Universities' houses are entitled "households", but what if the houses entitled them are only Sims who are brothers/sisters or married couples? Examples are the The Brothers household and The Richards Family household. And since The Sims series have more set of families than set of households. And as LiR had said, we may know that this household is entitled "household" and this household is entitled "family" and this household is somewhat their members are related and not. So this category should be delete.  .ThePeculiarMe  |  (talk to me)  |  (my mistakes)  12:20, June 11, 2014 (UTC)


 * I don't see any reason why household articles have to be separated from family articles. There are no essential differences between them. They basically go along pretty well sharing the same category, so why does this have to be changed?  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  07:19, June 14, 2014 (UTC)

These household articles are completely redundant. And I'm opposing any separation between household and family articles. I support the deletion. --  C.Syde  ( talk &#124;  contribs ) 07:54, June 19, 2014 (UTC)
 * Redundant! I think that's the word I've been looking for. :p  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  16:50, June 20, 2014 (UTC)

Style
Style was nominated for deletion because it "Doesn't warrant its own page under the notability policy." I'm wondering if someone (perhaps the nominator) can explain what that means. --  LostInRiverview talk ~ blog 07:10, June 22, 2014 (UTC)

Veloci-Rooster
This is another deletion nomination that needs some explaining... the nomination says that the article doesn't warrant its own page, which I'm inclined to agree with. But should the information on the page instead be merged into another article, and if so, which article? --  LostInRiverview talk ~ blog 07:14, June 22, 2014 (UTC)
