Welcome to The Sims Wiki's '''Fanon Namespace'''!<ref>A '''namespace''' consists of all the pages that begin with the same prefix. Any page that begins "Fanon:" is said to be in the Fanon namespace. For example, the page [[Bella Goth]] is not in the fanon namespace, whereas a page named <nowiki>[[Fanon:Bella Goth]]</nowiki> would be. On The Sims Wiki, all fanon content is kept in the Fanon Namespace, to keep it separate from other content.</ref>! We look forward to seeing your ideas join our extensive and varied library of ''Sims'' fanon<ref>'''Fanon''' is the general term used to describe in-game player-created content. Fanon includes player-created Sims, families, neighborhoods, worlds, and lots, and storylines derived from those creations. Note that fanon is typically distinct from "custom content."</ref> and fan fiction content. However, before you begin bringing your ideas to life, we have a few pointers you might want to take into consideration, such as some rules and guidelines. After all, The Sims Wiki is an encyclopedia about The Sims series, and while we welcome fanon content and encourage editors to be creative in contributing their content, our main mission is to preserve and develop the canon<ref>'''Canon''' is the term used to describe EA and/or Maxis-created and thus "official" game content, including pre-created Sims, families, neighborhoods, worlds, and lots, and storlines derived from those creations.</ref> information. Because of this, we do have a few definite policies that we enforce regularly. We try to make these rules as easy to follow and understandable as possible. Our goal is to make sure that you are able to create excellent fanon content without negatively affecting other content on the wiki.
