If you have strong evidence to suggest that a person is using multiple accounts in bad faith, please contact an administrator through private message on the [[The Sims Wiki:IRC Channel|IRC Channel]] or [[The Sims Wiki:Chat|Chat]]. Do not leave messages that accuse, suspect, or imply sock puppetry or deliberate misuse of multiple accounts, on any talk page, forum thread, the Administrators' Noticeboard, or any other pages on The Sims Wiki.

{{Main|The Sims Wiki:Bots}}
Some users may choose to create a bot account, in order to perform mass edits or trivial edits on the wiki. Approved bot accounts are a permitted use of multiple accounts by a single user.
Before a bot is allowed to operate on The Sims Wiki, it must be approved by the administrative team on the [[The Sims Wiki:Administrators' noticeboard|administrators' noticeboard]] and given the proper 'bot' user flag. Bots will be given the user access level as their owner; for instance, a user that does not have administrator user rights on The Sims Wiki will not be able to obtain those rights for their bot.
Bot software should not be used on a regular user account, unless that user account is given a bot flag. Bot accounts used without approval will be considered an improper use of multiple accounts, and handled accordingly. Using a bot account to perform non-bot tasks, like participating in votes or discussions on the wiki, may result in loss of bot flags, warnings, blocks, or other actions as needed.
