[[File:Information orange.svg|25px]] Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to The Sims Wiki, as you did at [[:Cooking (The Sims 3)]]. Your edits appear to constitute [[Help:Vandalism|vandalism]] and have been reverted or removed. If you would like to experiment, please use the [[Project:Sandbox|sandbox]]. Editors who repeatedly engage in vandalism may have their [[Project:Blocking|editing privileges revoked]]. ''For example, you wrote in [http://sims.wikia.com/wiki/Cooking_(The_Sims_3)?diff=prev&oldid=749895 this edit] that the name of the refrigerator was "Minus One Kelvin Refrigerator", however the in-game name is "MinusOne Kelvin Refrigerator". Text in-game should be written verbatim and should not be "corrected".'' —[[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>]]) 16:45, September 18, 2016 (UTC)

==RE: Anonymous Users==
No the age restriction is restricted to registered users only. Since unregistered users don't have established identities, and since the Wikia's Terms of Use guidelines state that all users must be 13 years or over to register on Wikia, it does not apply to users who aren't registered. On top of that, some IP addresses are shared between several users, and some IPs are dynamic and change owners overtime, so if there was a restriction prohibiting the use of underage IP editing, such a restriction would be highly problematic. I know for a fact, that one of the IP addresses that I used in the past was a shared one, because I was once notified of some IP edits which I didn't make. ― <span style="font-family:'Constantia'; font-weight:bold; font-size:108%;">[[User:C.Syde65|<font color="maroon">C.Syde</font>]]</span> <span style="font-family:'Adobe Garamond Pro'; font-size:108%;">([[User talk:C.Syde65|<font color="black">talk</font>]] | [[:Special:Contributions/C.Syde65|<font color="black">contribs</font>]])</span> 11:49, September 18, 2016 (UTC)

==Editing while logged out==
Hello. There have been recent suspicions about you having edited the wiki while logged out. Please remember to always [[Special:UserLogin|log in]] before editing, as doing so helps conceal your IP address. Please also note that editing while logged out, while not expressly forbidden, is not permissible if used to deceive other editors or to vandalize or disrupt the wiki. If you have any questions, please [[User talk:K6ka|let me know]]. Thank you. —[[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>]]) 22:55, October 7, 2016 (UTC)
