::I've tried to investigate how to make it move with sitenotice, but it's kinda tricky. I noticed that the Fallout wiki uses an advanced era template, check the links below.

== Usage ==
 
Please only use this template for featured articles and protected pages until further notice. We still need to work out how to make it compatible with sitenotice and whether we want to include it in ALL articles with the game logo's. Add your contribution.

I believe I've made the template go down with the sitenotice now. Don't go celebrating just yet though. I still think we should dicuss whether we want to the right side cluttered with icons. So again: For noew just use the locks, featured and real-world icons.

==The Sims 3 Store==
Googling "The Sims 4 Store" doesn't bring anything up other than places to buy The Sims 4, but if EA does cough out a "The Sims 4 Store", then the current parameter we use for The Sims 3 Store - "STORE", is going to conflict with it.
 
So, I suggest that we do with The Sims 3 Store like we did with The Sims 2 Store - change the parameter to "TS3STORE", and instead we'll use "TS4STORE" for The Sims 4 Store (EA has reportedly already registered website domain names for The Sims 5 and 6, so we can expect two more games in the series).
 
A bot will be needed to replace "STORE" with "TS3STORE", which shouldn't be the hardest part. --'''[[:User:K6ka|k6ka]]''' ([[:User talk:K6ka|talk]] &#124; [[:Special:Contributions/K6ka|contribs]]) 13:09, September 6, 2014 (UTC)
 
:I agree. I think it's the best solution. It's highly likely that there would be ''The Sims 4 Store'' some time in the future...

There are icons for the console version of The Sims and The Sims 2, but none of The Sims 3.

== Holiday Celebration Pack icon doesn't link to anything ==
 
The era icon for The Sims 4: Holiday Celebration Pack doesn't seem to link to its page. [[User:AireDaleDogz|<span style="color:#4B0082">✨AireDaleDogz✨</span>]] ([[User talk:AireDaleDogz|<span style="color:#800080">talk</span>]]) 11:14, January 10, 2018 (UTC)

==Newer logos==
Will parameters for TS3 console be included in era ? Although they're similar to PC platform, they're still different in significant ways. Would be reasonalbe to create them (for base game and pets game). Would it be possible to use the cover arts If there happen to be no exclusive logos? Some sort of custom logo would then need to be used. I can imagine (whoever can design it) of a joystick with a plumbob or idk. Also, there's no logo for TS2 Pets on console.

:For one thing, the [[File:The Sims 2 Castaway Logo.png|32px|link=The Sims 2: Castaway]] logo could be used for the console version.[[User:DrakonoSkerdikas|DrakonoSkerdikas]] ([[User talk:DrakonoSkerdikas|talk]]) 20:42, December 22, 2018 (UTC)
 
::I was recently filling out information for TS2 Pets on console and also noticed there was no era on any of the pages. I took the TS2C era icon as an example and tried to make one for pets. It's a little bit longer than the others because of the pets tag hanging down, but I wonder if this would work?
