The Sims 4 will be released in less than a week. A conclusion should for this thread should be devised soon. [[User:Auror Andrachome|Ѧüя◎ґ]] ([[User talk:Auror Andrachome|talk]]) 04:31, August 28, 2014 (UTC)
 
==Implementation==
It seems this thread has reached a natural conclusion. The main points are:
#Eliminating {{t|Simbio-start}}.
#Breaking information for each game generation onto its own subpage (e.g. Bella Goth/Generation 1, Bella Goth/Generation 2, Bella Goth/Generation 3, and Bella Goth/Generation 4) while leaving the main Sim article to direct to the other four and to provide as much background information as possible without conflicting with the other pages.
#''The Sims'', ''The Sims 2'' and ''The Sims 3'' form together one distinct timeline of events, while ''The Sims 4'' forms a separate but equally distinct and valid timeline. In cases where things differ between the timelines (e.g. the mother of Dina and Nina Caliente), both timelines will be considered equally valid.
 
Assuming everyone is alright with this, we should find a way to move forward, as we're already past the release date, and the longer we wait the harder it will be to reorganize this information on our articles.
 
I'm not a huge fan of using {{t|Main}} to link to the subpages. But, until we devise a better way to do it, it seems like the best option. Perhaps we can look at other wikis that divide articles like this (none come to mind immediately) to help inspire a way forward. -- '''[[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>''' 18:14, September 3, 2014 (UTC)
