The Sims Wiki has adopted a specific policy regarding the addition of information about '''Unreleased Games''', including unconfirmed and rumored games. Above all, the focus of this policy is to ensure that all information added to the Wiki about a particular game or game feature is verified and accurate. Additionally, this policy governs the addition of information about unconfirmed and rumored games.

==Rumor Confirmation==
#'''Only [[Electronic Arts]]''', through their [http://www.ea.com website], through an EA website (such as [[TheSims3TheSims.com]]), through EA staff members at official EA events, through videos/trailers produced by EA, or through EA-managed social media sites may issue an official confirmation of a game's development. Linking to anything other than an EA site, an EA-produced event, video or a post from EA on an EA-managed social media site does not confirm the rumor. Posts on [http://forumforums.thesims3thesims.com/jforum/forums/list.page The Sims 3 forums] ''do not'' serve as official confirmation unless the post is made by a confirmed SimGuru.
#If a user moves a rumor to 'Confirmed True' without a link to an official confirmation, that move will be reverted and the user will be subject to a warning. Repeated moving may be subject to additional actions as necessary.
#Any new articles created for a newly-confirmed game must link to a source of official confirmation from Electronic Arts, or they will be deleted.
#Pages about features included in an unconfirmed game - e.g. new traits, objects, neighborhoodsworlds, families - should not be created until the game is officially confirmed. Articles which refer to features that exist in previous games/expansions should not be edited to include reference to unconfirmed features or unconfirmed expansions.
