User blog:K6ka/The Sims Wiki News - 31st January 2016
I haven't been in the best of health recently, so I'll try and keep this short.
- EA skipping E3 and creating their own event instead
EA is too cool for E3, apparently. Instead, they're setting up their own event: EA Play 2016. They'll bring the games, the demos, and the competitions, and all you have to do is dip your hands into it.[1]
- Origin update
New update for Origin: Version 9.11.5.17432 – 410648.[2] (Literally nothing more to say)

- Community discussions
Our community discussions forum is where the community gets together to discuss changes and proposals for the wiki. Without it, we cannot drive our wiki forward. Participate in a discussion today!
Here's a brief list of what we need to discuss:
- Change protection on policy pages
- Consistency with capitalization
- Changes to the edit warring and rollback policies
- Phasing out Simbio templates
- Creating articles for Gallery content
These threads have been quiet for a while — feel free to revive them!
The full list is here.
- Battles!
We've always picked distinctly different candidates for our battles, but this time, we're going to have essentially the same family go head on with each other!
The Crumplebottom family from Sunset Valley consists of only one living member: Agnes Crumplebottom. She's been recently widowed after her husband, Erik Darling, died on their honeymoon. At first, she was crushed at the loss, and then later disgusted, turning into the infamous "Miss Crumplebottom" in The Sims: Hot Date. Otherwise, though, she has many ties with the Goth family.
The Crumplebottom family from Moonlight Falls is a bit... weird. Three witch sisters appear, but their relation with the rest of the Crumplebottom family is... unclear. Their powers can cause some serious damage (and bewilderment!), if they could all just agree on whose turn it is to wash the dishes.
Which one of these two do you prefer? It's people like you that run our battles and determine the winner — vote now!

Agnes... single. Forever.

A Focus Article is an article that shows promise for high quality, but that is in significant need of improvement first. 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.
This week's article is Jewelry. It's been needing information about The Sims 3 for some time now, and it could use a new layout as well. If you can help, edit the page today!
Last week's article was Dresser. Thanks to Dharden, StartUp, Xyclone010, Vpetmad, and Waikikamukow for helping out!
Stay tuned for next week's edition! —k6ka 🍁 (Talk · Contributions) 03:14, January 31, 2016 (UTC)
