:::::'''ETA''': That "separating the subsection into a new section" idea is from me thinking that the point we're making is to make the page easy to distinguish between main timeline and alternate timeline without making everything too complicated. Because putting under "Biography" section makes it look mixed with the main timeline, just separating the section will do the trick already.

::::::I prefer the tabber as well, but as was mentioned above, it doesn't work on all devices, so it makes content within tabs inaccessible to people browsing on mobile devices. Also keep in mind that any change to the format would require a substantial amount of work, be that through subpages, tabbers, etc. Tabbers work in a somewhat similar manner, in that the page content is separated onto multiple subpages; the difference between the two systems being that information from the subpages is displayed on the "main" page through the tabber, versus viewed on the separate page through the alternate method. I think both systems avoid the pitfall of having the information on a single page, as currently pages about Sims in multiple games are (to put it politely) very disorganized and chaotic. For instance, we organize biography information in order of the in-series chronology (i.e. TS3 --> TS --> TS2), but the average gamer might not realize that there is such an in-universe order. As well, TS4, being a new timeline, does not fit into this chronology at all. Separating all the information seems the most logical move, as it avoids clutter and keeps like and relevant information combined together. -- '''[[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>''' 07:43, October 6, 2014 (UTC)
