You could have a featured section, like the featured articles, animal, etc. Any good? [[User:Potterfan1997|Potterfan1997]] 10:11, December 29, 2010 (UTC)
 
===Impersonating thugs===
It has been reported that people have been reported that people have been impersonating admins, and other important people on The Sims IRC channel. Such as someone, most likely a troll, impersonated user BobNewbie. If you happen to see a troll, insulting or harassing you, please contact an admin, and the user they were impersonating.

=== Cite sources ===
 
Guys, please remember to cite your sources, as in <nowiki><ref><SOURCE HERE></ref></nowiki>. This helps keep the information on the wiki more truthful, and it can really give all of us a break. For example, an unregistered contributor adds a Sim's supposed sign? How does he know? Does have the actual gameplay to show the sign? Does he have a good source? If he doesn't, than you remove the information. Why do you remove the information? Because it doesn't have a reliable source. Images are considered to be sources, but you also have to remember, images can be photoshopped, and Sims can be easily made. "That Sim could easily have been made and uploaded from SimPE by that user!" Therefore, it would be better if sources were actually typed out, not images. Images are still okay, though, but we would still like an actual source. {{AurorSig}}
