So I've noticed that some HTML tags on [[The Sims Wiki:Community Portal|the Community Portal mainpage]] seem to be broken. I noticed that (overnight?) we have been upgraded to [[Special:Version|MediaWiki 1.19]] as part of Wikia's global overhaul. Despite HTML5 having native backwards compatibility with older versions of the HTML standard, [http://community.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:Ohmyn0/Making_your_wiki_HTML5_compliant a lot of tags have become obsolete]. This is noticeable in Chrome and I haven't tried any other browsers. {{GGsig}} 10:22, July 6, 2012 (UTC)
:This issue also exists in Firefox, so I've added that to the table. In fact, the page won't even load for me, it dumps me on an error page instead. However, I do know that before the upgrade we were having problems on that page, specifically with the randomized Sim pictures and the <choose> tags. -- ~~~~
