How does, or how should, this wiki address differences in a few game titles between the United States, United Kingdom, Europe, Australia, or elsewhere? Personally, I think games such as ''[[The Sims: Livin' Large]]'' (''Livin' it up'' in the UK), ''[[The Sims: Vacation]]'' (UK: ''On Holiday''), ''[[The Sims 2: Holiday Party Pack]]'' (UK: ''Christmas Party Pack''), or ''[[The Sims 3: High-End Loft Stuff]]'' (UK: ''Design and Hi-Tech Stuff''), should have pages both for the official title, and a redirect page for the alternative titles, that link back to the official title. For example, have a page for ''Livin' Large'', but also a page for ''Livin' it up,'' which would automatically redirect to ''Livin' Large''. Thoughts?

Variants of game titles between countries/locales[edit source]

How does, or how should, this wiki address differences in a few game titles between the United States, United Kingdom, Europe, Australia, or elsewhere? Personally, I think games such as The Sims: Livin' Large (Livin' it up in the UK), The Sims: Vacation (UK: On Holiday), The Sims 2: Holiday Party Pack (UK: Christmas Party Pack), or The Sims 3: High-End Loft Stuff (UK: Design and Hi-Tech Stuff), should have pages both for the official title, and a redirect page for the alternative titles, that link back to the official title. For example, have a page for Livin' Large, but also a page for Livin' it up, which would automatically redirect to Livin' Large. Thoughts? LostInRiverview (talk)(blog) 02:32, June 21, 2010 (UTC)

That's a good idea. --a_morris (talk) 05:00, June 28, 2010 (UTC)
