2011! After a whole year of waiting, its finally here! Well, it's going to be quite a year, on and off wiki. 2011 is going to be the year the new Sims game, [[The Sims Medieval]] will be released, along with quite a few new expansion and stuff packs! We plan to continue expanding our database, but that impossible without your help! We need you to help us grow the wiki. We wish you a happy new year, and we hope you will enjoy 2011 and reach all your goals! Happy editing and Simming!

==Redesign Of The Community Portal==
Well, if you have been living in a cave for this long, I want to inform you that the community portal hes been redesigned by me and [[User:LostInRiverview|LostInRiverview]] . Yes, no longer will one of the most important pages on the wiki be only a grey table with a few lines of text. If you ask me, it looks amazing! Check it out for yourself [[The Sims Wiki:Community Portal|here]], and we would really like your opinion on it! Please leave a message [[User talk:LostInRiverview|here]] on how it can be improved, what can be added and what should be removed.
==Mascot==
Who here has never heard of Walter? He's the community support teams little robot mascot! This got me thinking, should The Sims Wiki get one? Well, start your games, load Create-A-Sim and make your best Sim ever, because The Sims Wiki will be having a contest to decide their new mascot! Keep your eyes open for when the contest starts in February!
==Horoscope: Capricorn (Dec 22- Jan 19) [[File:Capricorn.gif]]==
You have little patience and when you want something, you want it. 2011 will give you a chance to rest and grab hold of you earned [[Simoleon|success]] you've earned in you [[career]] . You may have [[social]] [[Urgencies |problems]], and remember to fill your [[Aspiration|aspirations]] with a positive attitude. Mars will do a number on you this year, and you may not be inclined to [[Party|celebrate]] things, and may be [[grumpy]] most of the time. Your [[love]] life will also be effected by this.
Saturn will continue nagging for most of the year, and you may struggle mentally. You will overcome these problems, and will be stronger then ever by the end of the year.
Beware of [[fireplace]]s and fireworks indoors, as they will effect your health.
Notable Capricorn Sims: [[Beau Merrik]], [[Betty Newbie]], [[Loki Beaker]], [[Tank Grunt]].
The Sims Series:'' Armed with a dry wit, Capricorns can often be found telling a good joke. Also being very practical, they strive for order and discipline''
