Polls
The Sims Wiki periodically creates and/or updates a poll on the main page. Older polls are archived for later viewing here.

Discontinued features
The following are no longer used as featured content.

Featured contest
Since July 2010, The Sims Wiki is also running a bi-monthly featured contest. A poll runs for a month to decide which contest should be featured and the next month we feature the winner. You can add your ideas for featured contests here. You can nominate your own User Created Contests.

At times the poll might be skipped if there's a featured contest we'd like to do before it's too late. Such as an example was the contest to find a name of the, at the time, unnamed new Neighborhood coming in The Sims 3: Late Night. Sadly EA chose the name Bridgeport halfway through the contest.

Voting guidelines

 * 1) Under the "Votes" Section, place the name of the content you wish to nominate in between three equals signs as follows: ===Content Name=== . EVERYONE and ANYONE is free to choose ANY article (excluding those that have already been featured (Check past content first). If the article you want to vote for has already been nominated, proceed to step two.
 * 2) Place #--~ underneath the nominated article. The code will automatically convert into your user name and the time of your vote. You must sign your name. Comments can be placed between "#" and " --~ ".
 * 3) Do NOT vote for the same content more than once. Each bullet (#) counts as a vote.
 * 4) Please add new nominations to the BOTTOM of the list.
