[[File:Celebrity_star.png|left]]Every month, The Sims Wiki selects a '''Featured Article''' to display on the main page of the wiki. These featured articles represent some of the most informative, well-written and interesting articles that The Sims Wiki has to offer. Community voting and nominations are used to determine which articles are featured.

==Voting Rules and Guidelines==
===Initial nominations===
Anyone may nominate as many articles as they wish, as long as the nominated articles have not [[Project:Featured Article/Past Articles|already been featured]] or are not already nominated. Please follow this process:
# Start a separate new section for each nominated article.
# Include a link in each section to the nominated article, as well as a brief explanation of why the article is being nominated.
# Sign each nomination using four tildes ({{Sign}}).
 
===Rules for voting===
Anyone may vote for as many articles as they choose. Please observe these rules:
# Sign all votes, and do not vote for the same article more than once.
# When nominating an article, the nominee cannot vote for it.
 
===Selection===
*At the beginning of each new month, an administrator will determine the nominated article with the most votes. The article with the highest vote total ''may be'' selected as the Featured Article.
*Administrators can override the winning article under these circumstances:
# One administrator may override in order to feature an article on the wiki which is relevant to a current or recent event or game release
# Two administrators in agreement may override a winning article if they determine it to be of poor quality. If overriden, the article will wait for a month to be featured - if it is not improved by the end of the month, the nomination will be deleted and it will have to be re-nominated. If the article is improved by that time, it becomes the next Featured Article.
 
==Votes and Nominations==
''Place your nominations or votes below the article(s) you would like to see featured. Nominations and votes should be based on the article quality, not just the content of the article. Please sign all votes using four tildes ({{Sign}}).''
 
===[[The Sims 2: Mansion & Garden Stuff]]===
A detailed and well written article for the last game in ''The Sims 2'' franchise. [[User:Joey.eyeball|Joey.eyeball]] ([[User talk:Joey.eyeball|talk]]) 06:08, January 18, 2014 (UTC)

====Comment====
#Weighing in, I'd say the article isn't exactly very well-written. Perhaps it's better than the rest of ''The Sims 2'' stuff packs, but it doesn't mean it evaluates as a good article.

===[[The Sims 2: Nightlife]]===
I think this page is one of the most well-written game articles on the wiki. The article explains the major features of the expansion without getting into excessive detail, and gives links to other articles that delve further into those features. I think it serves as a good model for what our game articles ''should'' be like. - '''[[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>''' 19:14, June 5, 2014 (UTC)
