Here's a battle that a lot of people probably have been waiting for.... '''[[Mortimer Goth]]''' versus '''[[Bella Goth]]'''; famous Sim versus famous Sim.

'''[[Mortimer Goth]]''' was raised in the old country before moving to the [[SimCity]] area when he was a boy. His parents, [[Gunther Goth|Gunther]] and [[Cornelia Goth]], are incredibly wealthy, and Mortimer's all set to inherit that money when he grows up. He creates the [[Elixir of Life]], but it backfires on him and ages him considerably. When his wife disappears, [[Dina Caliente]] is ready to ruin the family tree by using Mortimer as her personal piggy bank.

'''[[Bella Goth]]''' has a reputation of being beautiful and well-behaved, and is close friends with Mortimer. After they marry and have [[Cassandra Goth|two]] [[Alexander Goth|kids]], Bella pays [[Don Lothario]] a visit to welcome him to [[Pleasantview]]. Don attempts to get hot with Bella, which goes awry. Bella, apparently a bit salty, heads up to the roof of his condo to stargaze, where she mysteriously disappears. Some say [[alien]]s transported her to [[Strangetown]]. Some say she went to [[Littlehaven]]. Some say she never really left Pleasantview. Who knows? One thing's for sure — will she ever be reunited with her loving family before Dina and Don ruin the picture?

Which one of these two do you prefer? '''It's people like you that run our battles and determine the winner — [[Project:Battles|vote now!]]'''

{{Headerblue|text=Focus article of the week|icon=TS4 star icon.png}}{{clrl}}
A '''Focus Article''' is an article that shows promise for [[The Sims Wiki:Featured article|high quality]], but that is in significant need of improvement first. <s>Each week, a new article will be the Focus Article. The following week, we'll recognize the different users that made improvements to the article.</s>

Well, since '''no one''' edited last week's focus article, which was '''[[Dresser]]''', I'm putting up again as the focus article this week. What was even more surprising was the fact that it was suggested by some users, and those users didn't edit the article they suggested. <small><span style="color:grey" title="Shake My Head">''SMH''</span></small>
