:But it's not the best solution either. The contents will make the readers confused, and I have no idea how to integrate it with console games (should all console games be at the bottom or correspond to the series?).

::I think there will be more returning families that'll appear in TS4. I don't know if I'm wrong nor right but [https://twitter.com/TheSims/status/486916199020642305 they created the Pleasant couples using the CAS demo].

:::The main issue with keeping all the content on one page is, if the developers make changes to the Sims or families in TS4 which is contrary to that in the earlier games. For example, what if Mortimer and Bella didn't have [[Cassandra Goth|Cassandra]] in The Sims 4, but had a completely different child? How would we reconcile this on the infobox or in the lead section of the articles on Bella and Mortimer? The developers have already shown that they aren't particularly careful about how they adjust the timeline, so it wouldn't surprise me if they chose to rework some of the returning Sims or families in the game. -- '''[[User:LostInRiverview|<font color="navy">LostInRiverview</font>]]<sup> [[User_talk:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">talk</font>]] ~ [[User_blog:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">blog</font>]]</sup>''' 09:09, July 12, 2014 (UTC)
::::Additionally, I'd like to emphasize again that my example was a '''very very very very rough design''' of what I'm suggesting. And while I would agree that it's somewhat ugly to see an infobox that is much longer than the article content, I would counter that this is actually very common on some Sim pages, especially for Sims that aren't particularly well-known, like the aforementioned Christopher Steel. So the blank space issue that Nikel mentions is one that we already contend with. -- '''[[User:LostInRiverview|<font color="navy">LostInRiverview</font>]]<sup> [[User_talk:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">talk</font>]] ~ [[User_blog:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">blog</font>]]</sup>''' 09:09, July 12, 2014 (UTC)

Uh oh, it seems that the Goths aren't the only ones returning in the series. At least [[Nancy Landgraab]], [[Dina Caliente]], and [[Don Lothario]] (and probably the Pleasants as ThePeculiarMe pointed out earlier) will return in completely different appearances. Who is that even Katrina Caliente? How are we going to relate it with the {{T|Simbio-start}} template that lists close familial relationships with the Sim? If Katrina is Dina's sister, will we add her there? But Katrina is supposed to be a sister from an alternate universe...

Katrina looks older than Dina, though. What if she's their mother? ''(Even though her mother's name was [[Nighat Caliente|Nighat]] in the TS2-verse, but whatever)'' but Dina seems to be a teen and Katrina an Adult\middleaged. She could still be their older sister, though. ''(Actually, this "Katrina" and the Nighat in TS2 look a lot alike, so i guess that, maybe in the TS4-verse her name just was Katrina instead of Nighat.) ''
Maybe we could have an article named Nighat Caliente (TS2)\Katrina Caliente (TS4). Or maybe we could link both as Dina\Nina's mother using the same tags used for what object is in each expansion pack.
