User blog:K6ka/The Sims Wiki News - 8th November 2015
Ah, it feels good to do another edition of The Sims Wiki's weekly news blog again! Welcome back!
- Get clubbin'!
Clubs are just some of the highlights The Sims 4: Get Together promises. A brief overview of the customizable stuff you'll be seeing in your clubs is available here.
- Repairmen, at last!
Repairmen have finally been added to The Sims 4, one full year after the game was released (In comparison, repairmen were included in the initial release of The Sims, The Sims 2, and The Sims 3, and even in console releases. Thanks a lot EA for the wait). They came with patch 26, which also includes a number of other changes. Always remember to uninstall all mods and custom content before installing the patch, and to run the game at least once without your mods and custom content after installing the patch.[1]

- Okay... what happened to the caption contest!?
As you may notice, there is no caption contest attached to the end of this week's blog post. Due to a discussion, the "Caption This!" weekly caption contest has been spun-off into its own bi-weekly feature. The contest itself will no longer be held using comments on a blog post, and each entry/voting period will last two weeks instead of one, but otherwise the contest itself is the same as before. Be sure and check it out, submit a caption for the new image, and vote for a caption for last week's image. The current submission and voting period lasts until November 14, 2015.
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 Sixam. It could use a new layout and a lot of additional content from both The Sims 3 and The Sims 4. It has been tagged as a stub since March of 2015, and it could use some love right about now.
Last week's article was Moonlight Falls. Special thanks to Sims2Player and Vpetmad for fixing up the lengthy Trivia section!
Be sure to let us know of any articles you've seen on the wiki that look like a good pick for future Focus Articles! This is still an experimental feature, so don't hesitate to leave us feedback as well!
That's it for this week. Happy Simmin'! --I am k6ka Talk to me! See what I have done 03:43, November 8, 2015 (UTC)
