The Sims Wiki is a comprehensive encyclopedia about ''The Sims'' series. However, there are some topics which are of questionable relevance or which are not necessarily notable enough to warrant an article on the wiki. The following policy has been adopted in an effort to clearly delineate whether a topic is relevant or not, and to establish practices for determining notoriety.
Line 33 ⟶ 32:
There is no strict definition of what topics or pieces of information are notable. Notability is largely determined by the community at-large, though it is not necessary to actively determine whether each and every article on the wiki is notable. Rather, the wiki utilizes ''passive review'' of articles with questionable notability. This passive review follows the steps below.
1. Any user may question whether an article which has been created is notable enough to remain. If a user believes an article is not notable, they should tag it with the {{t|Notability}} template and begin discussing notability on the [[Help:Talk page|article talk page]] or in the [[Forum:Community discussions|Community Discussions forum]].
2. If a notability discussion occurs, a consensus will be necessary to determine that an article is not notable. An article with questionable notability should not be deleted until it is established that the article is not notable. It is the discretion of the community to decide whether an article is or is not notable, basing this decision on any given guidelines or established precedent on previous issues of notability.
