March: the third month of the Gregorian Calendar Year and the month where most of your surviving New Years Resolutions fall apart. At least, it makes sense to me that ''that'' would be the case... hehe. |

[[File:Spring rider tabber problem.png|thumb|This is most certainly not the way to go...]] |
|||
We have a couple of community discussion threads open in our [[TSW:CD|community discussion forum]] where we discuss community discussions about how to discuss improvements to the community in community discussions... okay, that was pretty loaded. |
|||
* There is a [[Forum:Formal request to disable Featured Videos on TSW|formal request to disable Featured Videos]] on the wiki. Back in [[User blog:K6ka/Community News - December 2018|December]] I wrote about how we proposed a formal request to have the highly unpopular [[Help:Featured Video|Featured Video]] feature disabled on the wiki. In the meantime I have created a template called {{tl|Featured video notice}} which displays a notice below articles where a featured video is known to exist, telling readers that the video was ''not'' approved or created by the community of The Sims Wiki. |
|||
* There is a [[Forum:Standards for object infobox images|thread]] to discuss the standards for using images in the {{tl|Infobox object}} template, specifically how different recolors of an object should be displayed. |
|||
* There is a [[Forum:Starting a development forum|proposal]] to create a new development forum to assist with on-wiki technical development and discussion, such as creating new templates or working with Cascading Style Sheets. |
|||
The wiki runs entirely on volunteer edits—ordinary people like you and me! Anyone is welcome to participate in these discussions to help reach a consensus on how we as a wiki can move forward. |
|||
{{Headerblue|text=New [[The Sims Wiki:Featured article|featured article]] for the month!|icon=Celebrity star.png}} |

[[File:Looking out the window.jpg|thumb|It's snowing!!]] |
|||
The [[Precipitation]] article has been selected to be the [[Project:Featured article|featured article]] for the month of March 2019! For those unfamiliar with the "featured article" designation, it is a title we give to select articles that reflect the finest content on the wiki, chosen based on their readability and the amount of information they contain. Featured articles are not chosen by a secretive cabal, but by the members of the wiki community as a whole—people like you! To nominate or vote for an article, [[The_Sims_Wiki:Featured_article#Selecting_new_Featured_Articles|read the instructions here]], and then either make a nomination or vote for an existing one. Yep, go ahead and do it! |

[[wikipedia:Discord (software)|Discord]] is an increasingly popular program used for talking to other humans over the Internet in real time. It offers text chat with formatting options; voice and video chat ''à la'' Skype and TeamSpeak; the ability to create your own servers for free for any purpose; and a growing community of gamers, regular joes, and even your own Facebook friends that you forgot about and only rediscovered when you linked your Discord account with Facebook. We here have picked up on Discord's blessings to help engage the wiki community. Even if you don't edit The Sims Wiki (or even play ''The Sims'', for that matter) you are absolutely welcome to join! If you're a bookworm and want to read up on the server before joining, clicky right over [[Project:Discord|here]], and if you're ready to join, clicky the "Click here" button below. |

;Updates to the server |
|||
* We have two new bots on the server! Please welcome: |
|||
** '''GamesROB''': This is a Discord games bot that lets you play games like Connect Four, Minesweeper, Hangman, a memory matching game, and even a quiz! Some games can be played solo while others are best played in a group with other users. The bot is currently only available in the ''#spammerland'' channel. |
|||
* '''WikiaLinker''': The bot that wiki editors have always wanted! Now, when you add wikitext links to chat (e.g. <code><nowiki>[[Link text]]</nowiki></code>), this bot will automatically convert it to a clickable link! Now you can go ahead and write something like <code><nowiki>I'm hungry and I wish this place had a [[buffet table]]</nowiki></code>, and it'll provide a link to the [[buffet table]] article! |
|||
* [[Project:Content moderator|Content moderators]] now have access to the super secret [[Project:Administrators|wiki administrators]] channel! A channel that none of the [[wiktionary:laity|laity]] need to know about... :P |
|||
If you have any other suggestions as to how we can improve the server, please let us know in the ''#server_feedback'' channel on the server! |
|||

|||
;A poll that you may vote on. In. With. I don't know. |
|||
<poll> |
|||
What do you think about The Sims 4 StrangerVille? |
|||
It's an amazing pack! |
|||
It looks very rushed and they recycled too much stuff. |
|||
I remain disinterested and impartial... i.e., bluntly neutral. |
|||
</poll> |

Thanks for reading! Be sure to leave any comments or feedback in the [[#WikiaArticleComments|Comments]] section below, and see you next month! —[[User:K6ka|'''<span style="color:#0040FF">k6ka</span>''']] <span title="Canadian!" style="color:red">🍁</span> ([[User talk:K6ka|<span style="color:#0080FF">Talk</span>]] · [[Special:Contributions/K6ka|<span style="color:#0B4C5F">Contributions</span>]]) 01:47, March 1, 2019 (UTC) |
