The Featured Editor (alternatively known as the User of the Month or Editor of the Month) is a way for the TSW community to showcase the hard work, dedication and accomplishments of its most devoted editors. The title of Featured Editor is a prestigious achievement for only the most deserving editors who have enriched The Sims Wiki in countless ways.

To see a list of past Featured Editors, please go here.

Featured User Selection

Prerequisites

All persons nominated as Featured Editors (nominees) must:

  • Be currently active participants on The Sims Wiki.
  • Not be currently blocked from the wiki, or have had a block from the wiki within a certain time:
    • For users that have received blocks, they will be ineligible to receive Featured Editor status until a time equal to twice the length of their block has passed. For example, a user blocked for one week would be ineligible for two weeks after the expiration of their block.
  • Have at least 50 edits to the wiki.
  • Not have been a Featured Editor for at least a six (6) month period prior to nomination.

Nomination

  • Users meeting the requirements above may be nominated at any time by another user.
  • Users cannot nominate themselves for Featured Editor, and they cannot ask or encourage another user to make a nomination on their behalf.
  • Each user can only nominate one user at a time. However, each user can vote for as many nominees as they would like.
  • A nominated user will remain on the list of nominees until they either become ineligible, or are selected as a Featured Editor.
  • For purposes of counting, a nomination of a user is considered a vote for that user.

Nominating and Voting Guidelines

  1. Only registered users can nominate or vote for other users.
  2. Under the "Nominations and Votes" Section, place the name of the user you wish to nominate inside double brackets, in between three equals signs as follows: ===[[User:User Name|User Name]]===. Under the user's name, add a bullet point with a brief statement, such as "I nominate <user>," followed by your signature. If the user you wish to vote for has already been nominated, proceed to step 3.
  3. Do not follow this step if you are the person nominating another user - follow the directions in step 2 instead. Place #--~~~~ underneath the nominated user's name. The code will automatically convert into your user name and the time of your vote. You must sign your name - unsigned votes will be deleted. Comments can be placed between "#" and "--~~~~".
  4. Do NOT vote for the same user more than once. Each bullet (#) counts as a vote.
  5. Only votes of support are allowed; do not place opposition (negative) votes or otherwise try to persuade others not to vote for a particular nominee.
  6. Please add new nominations to the BOTTOM of the list.

Nominations and Votes

Nikel23

  1. Since returning from his wikibreak, Nikel has evidently been highly dedicated to improving the wiki and is currently one of the most active users here. It's also been exactly 6 months since Nikel was Featured Editor the last time making him eligible for it once again. Lost Labyrinth (c)(b) 20:20, April 27, 2012 (UTC)
  2. Yep.---Starmoonie 23:33, April 27, 2012 (UTC)

Vss2eip

  1. Vss2eip is a great editor. He has found many sources to cite statements about recently-developed games, with the upcoming one, Pets. He's also a careful one, liking to correct what's not right even if it's minor. He has also helped to create several useful templates. Nikel Talk 09:12, October 19, 2011 (UTC)
    I'm not sure if my nomination and reason is still valid, but this could be a subject to be discussed. Nikel Talk 12:38, April 3, 2012 (UTC)
  2. Second that Jones143! 21:27, February 27, 2012 (UTC)
  3. I think Vss2eip has made a lot of good contributions and deserves some recognition for it. -- LostInRiverview talk · blog 18:16, March 20, 2012 (UTC)

Waikikamukow

  1. Waikikamukow is a prosperous editor here, and she's done many constructive contributions, mainly in The Sims 2 articles. Judging from her edits, she can be assumed to be able to use source mode quite handy. She improved many articles without messing the codes, which is impressive... to me. Nikel Talk 12:20, February 2, 2012 (UTC)

The Black Scorpion

  1. The Black Scorpion has made numerous of contributions about new releases and game rumors. He certainly is the best source when talking about game releases. Since he himself writes a lot in [www.simprograms.com SimPrograms] and is the owner of it, it's not a surprise he can become one. He really deserves one. Nikel Talk 05:26, May 25, 2012 (UTC)
  2. I'm surprised he wasn't nominated earlier. Lost Labyrinth (c)(b) 08:14, May 25, 2012 (UTC)
  3. Starmoonie - Talk Here 17:57, May 25, 2012 (UTC)
  4. He's good.03:44, June 15, 2012 (UTC)

Geirma

  1. Geirma has helped getting info on other languages of the Sim's names. Clearly this user deserves some recognition. Starmoonie - Talk Here 17:52, May 25, 2012 (UTC)
  2. I'd merge this two if I can, but it won't be a valid nomination if I do so. :p One thing I'm wondering is that why Geirma never shows up in a community for once? Nikel Talk 00:44, May 26, 2012 (UTC)

Aster09

  1. Aster09 has contributed as well for awhile now as well with giving translations in french for pages. Starmoonie - Talk Here 17:56, May 25, 2012 (UTC)

JM9193

  1. He has added quite a lot and still hasn't been nominated yet? I think he deserves some recognition. Starmoonie(Talk Here) 16:20, June 22, 2012 (UTC)
