What about The Goth Manor from Bustin Out? do we include as a goth home? do we need more information? or are we really following just PC storylines. i.e adding it will mess up the storyline like the mrs.agnes ctrumplebottom confusion?
Line 39 ⟶ 40:
== Sims 3 Goth Manor Entrance ==
 
Is there any particular reason why the Goth Manor in Sims 3's Front entrance is to side of the lot? Nobody ever goes in through the front door and it has a nice entrance, but it really bothers me because it's not at the front of the house :S Why did they make it like that? {{Unsigned<small>—Preceding unsigned comment added by [[User:Claxwell|Claxwell}}]] ([[User talk:Claxwell|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Claxwell|contribs]]) (UTC) - Please sign your comments with <nowiki>~~~~</nowiki></small>
:No idea. I've never played the Goths in Sunset Valley. Have you tried clicking the intended front door and use the "set as front door" option?

==Split==
It seems strange that (to my knowledge) this article is the only example of an article written about different lots in different games. There are recurring families in the series, but when we have articles written about their homes, the articles are named based on the address of the lot. I believe the Goths should follow this pattern as well. -- '''[[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>''' 03:32, June 4, 2014 (UTC)
 
:I somewhat agree. I'm sure the original idea why the lots are compiled here was that these are all where the Goths have once resided. Perhaps splitting each lot into its own article and making a section about the Goth's residence in [[Goth family]] is a better solution? The Goth family article has already had the section about the residence, though. Perhaps it needs expanding.

::Simply put, I think having an article about different Goth homes, while not having articles about other recurring family homes, improperly indicates that the Goth family is the most important family in the game. Whether they are the most prolific or the most well-known is irrelevant, as the wiki needs to treat the subject matter in a neutral manner. Creating a page specifically for different houses the Goth family has resided in, without doing the same for every other game family, reeks of favoritism towards the Goths, and is certainly not in keeping with the idea of neutrality. That's why I've proposed the article be split. Each individual lot should have its own page (e.g., 5 Sims Lane, 165 Sim Lane, 13 Skyborough Blvd./Goth Manor), just as we do in every other instance. -- '''[[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>''' 01:48, September 16, 2014 (UTC)
:::I have split the section on the home in ''[[The Sims 4]]'' into [[Ophelia Villa]]. Regardless of what is done to the rest of the article, that makes sense to me because it is in a separate continuity. [[User:Dharden|Dharden]] ([[User_talk:Dharden|talk]]) 14:38, October 14, 2014 (UTC)
::::That's probably for the best... keeping this article as the original timeline/continuity and ''Ophelia Villa'' as a separate one. --[[User:Pops Capo|The Grumpy Cat]] ([[User talk:Pops Capo|talk]]) 15:17, October 14, 2014 (UTC)
:::::Personally, I'm inclined to that viewpoint, but LiR makes a good case for adhering to our standard practice for lot articles. [[User:Dharden|Dharden]] ([[User_talk:Dharden|talk]]) 19:55, October 14, 2014 (UTC)
