Category talk:Candidates for deletion/Archive 14

Category:Households
I've seen this category has been created twice. The question is, is it worth categorizing each household in the game into this category? There are countless of households in the series already, and it's rather difficult to define whether a group of Sims living together is a "family" or a "household". Also, there's nothing unique that differs a household from a regular family household. Should it really be kept? If it's kept, every single household has to be manually categorized with this.  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  14:31, June 7, 2014 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I was wondering about that myself. I can't think of how we could automatically categorize families into this category using the Family Infobox, so as you said it would all have to be done manually. I think it wouldn't be impossible to define a household... maybe we just say that it's a family where a majority of the members aren't related to each other. In any case, it's still impractical to try and set this up, so I support deletion. --  LostInRiverview talk ~ blog 16:20, June 7, 2014 (UTC)


 * Yup, in TS2 the only "households" were the university ones. Everything else was insertNameHere family. Yes, even if it was only one sim like Don Lothario, it showed "lothario family." The same for the Singles who were not actually related. They were still called "singles family". In TS3, everything is "household", from the Roomies to the Wan-Goddards to the Bunch'es to the Steel (who is only Chris). And yes, there's a lot of leeway on what consist as an "household". 3 relatives with a live-in roommate\estetician\personal trainer is apparently not an household, but if it's someone with her lover\boyfriend and adoptive son of only one of them, like the Belle's, it's apparently an household. But if the kid actually belongs to both of them, it's a family. But then the kid is unborn and the parents starts out as just lovers and are not even boyfriend\girlfriend, it's an household. And le such. The Bunch'es are clearly a family, but the Sunset Valley Roomies are clearly an household. But what about the Wan-Goddards, or the Andrews? It's really hard to define. Kaiko Mikkusu (talk) 17:01, June 10, 2014 (UTC)


 * You may have a point but I'm not support your answer. Firstly, the Wan-Goddards are basically engaged but (I don't know this) it's said that the household is entitled "family". But obviously, they are still entitled "household". And now the Andrews, clearly they are married, so no explanations to be given.


 * Now for the main discussion. This user added the category because of the titles of the households. And Kaiko is doing the same thing but meaningful. And it is true that Sims that entitled "household" are mostly friends or friends with their daughters/sons. In TS2 and TS3 Universities' houses are entitled "households", but what if the houses entitled them are only Sims who are brothers/sisters or married couples? Examples are the The Brothers household and The Richards Family household. And since The Sims series have more set of families than set of households. And as LiR had said, we may know that this household is entitled "household" and this household is entitled "family" and this household is somewhat their members are related and not. So this category should be delete.  .ThePeculiarMe  |  (talk to me)  |  (my mistakes)  12:20, June 11, 2014 (UTC)


 * I don't see any reason why household articles have to be separated from family articles. There are no essential differences between them. They basically go along pretty well sharing the same category, so why does this have to be changed?  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  07:19, June 14, 2014 (UTC)

Maybe we can delete all the onomatology pages that don't have content, and modify the NeighborhoodInfobox template to no longer display the link unless the page actually exists. That way, we can still create Onomatology pages if we need to and they'll still be linked to from the template, but only if the page actually has content. -  LostInRiverview talk ~ blog 22:30, June 29, 2014 (UTC)

List of Wishes/Needs
This article was originally nominated for speedy deletion, but as it's not blatant vandalism I felt that deleting the page should be discussed first. From what I can tell, the page's author, Kelenius, is separating the List of Wishes into separate tabs, similar to other large lists on the wiki. They've made 'List of Wishes/Needs', as well as List of Wishes/Skills. Presumably, the list of wishes on each subpage will grow as Kelenius continues to work on it. However, the list of wants is already divided up by expansion pack, so it may not make much sense to re-divide the wishes by type instead. It's something worthy of discussion, which is why I'm bringing it up here.

So, should we delete the subpages of List of Wishes and keep the list organized the way it is, or complete the process of subdividing the list by type instead? --  LostInRiverview talk ~ blog 11:17, July 24, 2014 (UTC)


 * It doesn't really make much sense to separate wishes by the expansion pack. It should be noted, but it's definitely not the main parameter that separates them into categories. Skill wishes should be grouped together, not separated because some of these skills are only available in the expansion packs. Second, the page is already pretty bloated, and there are many more wishes that are not currently listed. Which is why I think there should be subpages. Kelenius (talk) 11:27, July 24, 2014 (UTC)


 * I agree with Kelenius. I'm sure the idea is to break up the master list into separate subpages based on categories. It makes more more sense if these wishes are classified by category instead of EP, much like List of Moodlets and List of Memories. If this is a work in progress, I suggest we not delete it.  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  11:35, July 24, 2014 (UTC)


 * Hmm, that might work too. And it makes sense. So this should not be deleted.  .ThePeculiarMe  |  (talk to me)  |  (my mistakes)  11:41, July 24, 2014 (UTC)

Objects children cannot use
IMO, this is a rather strange list. There are so many objects that children cannot use. It's hardly possible to name them all, and the list goes on and on as more series and EPs are introduced. Some are rather obvious (driving a car), some are game-specific (playing a piano), while some others are interaction-specific (can drink hot chocolate but cannot make it, has limited usage of cellphones, etc.).

If there are things children cannot use that are worth mentioning, such as gardening or playing instruments (in TS3), it's better to just mention it in the corresponding articles. If it doesn't fit there, explain it in the child article. Some things don't even need to be named, e.g. driving a car, throwing an axe, and so on. So honestly, I don't see the good of keeping this list at all.  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  11:10, August 1, 2014 (UTC)

Magic NPC Redirects

 * Butler M1
 * Butler M2
 * Butler M3
 * Landlord M1
 * Landlord M2


 * Landlord F1
 * Neutral Witch F1
 * Neutral Witch F2
 * Neutral Witch F3

For a while we've had these re-directs to Magic Sim NPCs with randomized names. In 2010 pages for these Sims were created under the names that were referenced in the game files. Now later in 2010-11 the pages were either re-named or deleted and replaced with these ones.

Apparently there was some debate as to whether or not the names referenced in the game files were fixed. In 2013 I changed their names back to the ones that were referenced in the game files, turning these pages above into re-directs.

The bottom line is that we know that those were their real names. So I suggest that we delete these re-directs because I feel that they're no longer needed. In fact on a couple of occasions some editors were apparently convinced that these names listed above were the names that were referenced in the game files, when actually they weren't.

These page re-directs may have been useful at one time, but I think they've outlived whatever usefulness they might have had.

--  C.Syde  ( talk &#124;  contribs ) 06:54, August 24, 2014 (UTC)


 * At that time we didn't know they had any fixed names to call them, hence the placeholder names. But now that we know they do have names, and I don't really see the need of keeping them anymore, I support the deletion. The Tricou descendants have the same case as well, so I'd like to request their redirects for deletion too.  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  07:10, August 24, 2014 (UTC)

Template:User samesexmarriage
I want to preface this discussion by saying that my nominating this template for deletion in no way whatsoever has anything to do with my own beliefs on the subject of same-sex marriage. For what it's worth, I'm gay and I support same-sex marriage, but none of that is relevant to the discussion. I'm saying this ahead of time simply to ensure that we approach this discussion from a neutral position and with regards to the template itself and not the sentiment of the template.

I would prefer that real-world politics not enter into this wiki, so much as is possible. Same-sex marriage is, in many parts of the world, a debated and even controversial thing. By allowing this kind of template here, we would welcome that real-world, often hostile, debate to spill over onto the wiki. Unlike debates about which Sim families are the best, or whether Olive Specter really is a murderer, or which Sims base game is the best, debates about real-world politics can and very often do devolve into anger and mistrust. We saw a little bit of this when we discussed removing a warning template from the wiki page on same-sex relationships.

Additionally, if we keep a template indicating support of same-sex marriage, it could prompt other users to create a template to oppose it. In fact, if we kept this template I would say that the opposing side should be able to create a template supporting their own views. I can not imagine that having opposing templates would create anything but bad tempers and arguments over something that is not relevant to the wiki.

Simply put, regardless of your own personal views on the subject of same-sex marriage, or other politicized issues, they don't really belong on the wiki. They too easily divide the community and disrupt the purposes of the project. --  LostInRiverview talk ~ blog 04:52, September 1, 2014 (UTC)


 * I support the deletion. --  C.Syde  ( talk &#124;  contribs ) 04:56, September 1, 2014 (UTC)


 * My bad. I was the person who created this template myself since I thought we could really use a template like this, but I'll agree with LiR's sentiment especially since LGBT and same-sex marriage is a hot-button real world political issue and that would certainly bring a lot a heated debate to the wiki.


 * We could change the wording so that it's something more neutral, such as "This user is in a same-sex relationship" and rename it to something like User samesexrelationship, but that would be redundant, as we already have a template (User lgbt relationship), just with a different wording. As for myself, I'm unsure what to do with this, so I'm remaining neutral to this position. EpicJoyBoy   (My talk page!)  05:11, September 1, 2014 (UTC)


 * I'm also not entirely convinced that we should keep this template either. --  C.Syde  ( talk &#124;  contribs ) 05:49, September 1, 2014 (UTC)

 * I'm quite unsure about this. The current misc. personal infoboxes have been abundant of the likes. How much do we limit this discussion? Is it only discussing about this particular infobox or the other sexual orientation infoboxes?  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  10:10, September 1, 2014 (UTC)

I agree with LiR's reasoning on keeping real-world politics out as much as possible. Yes, the misc. personal infoboxes are rather varied wrt the sort of information they allow users to state, but not in the area of personal political viewpoints. I think it's best we keep it that way, therefore, I support deletion. Dharden (talk) 11:04, September 1, 2014 (UTC)

Template:User transgender
Personally I don't think it's necessary to have a user template like this. There aren't that many people who are transgender anyway. --  C.Syde  ( talk &#124;  contribs ) 05:56, September 1, 2014 (UTC)


 * Oppose deletion. We have literally dozens of templates that allow our users to identify themselves in many different ways. Most importantly, we have two templates - User male and User female - which allow users to give their gender. But many people do not identify themselves with one of these genders, and they should be allowed to identify themselves however they wish. And, while I don't know any statistics about how many people in the world or in any particular country are transgendered, I do know that we have at least one member of this wiki who is. And even if we didn't, I would still oppose deletion, because providing the template allows potential users who are transgender to identify themselves (if they wish). -  LostInRiverview talk ~ blog 06:01, September 1, 2014 (UTC)

 * I oppose this deletion. While there are not many openly trans people, at least on the internet anyways, there are still many other people who identify as transgender or gender non-binary. Many trans/non-binary people don't come out for pretty much the same reason as other LGBT people do: transphobia. Also, I'd like to mention that transgender people have their own communities on the internet (such as the r/transgender community on Reddit) and they are also part of the LGBT spectrum.

 * I don't quite understand what you mean by "The userbox has no place on the wiki". There are folks who happen to be intersex and folks who happen to identify as trans or gender non-binary. I still think this (and any gender identity-related userboxes) should be kept in case of any potential users in the wiki who identifies as such, like what LiR said. EpicJoyBoy   (My talk page!)  08:56, September 1, 2014 (UTC)


 * I oppose deletion. The background reason of deletion isn't really strong or doesn't make a lot of sense, IMO. On what basis do we consider "not enough transgender?" Does it mean "not enough transgender" in the world or in the wiki? Either way, we can never tell how many users belong there. We can't even tell how many users are elderly here, so if this discussion is further discussed, we might as well say we don't need User elder and should delete it.


 * If it's under impression that the userbox hasn't been used by anyone yet, well... there are still a lot of userboxes that aren't used yet.  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  10:04, September 1, 2014 (UTC)


 * Oppose. Why shouldn't we keep it? Transgender, whether you believe it is or not, is a gender and we shouldn't remove it from the wiki as that could possibly cause a lot of bother in the future if there was a user that was transgender.


 * Also, you don't know if there is any transgenders on the wiki. There could be, but the user could possibly just not want people to know as they;re still figuring it out. So yeah, oppose. Beds (talk - blog ) 11:19, September 1, 2014 (UTC)


 * Oppose. This template and its brethren allows people who are actually neither male nor female to place themselves in a category in which they belong, should they join this wiki. Removal of this template would be a false signal of this community's attitude towards transgender people. So, yeah.

Business Savvy
I'm conflicted that we should have separate page of each trait in The Sims 4. Traits in this game aren't as well-defined as in The Sims 3 IMO, and I rarely see their significance in any of the reviews. But putting that aside, right now I'm talking about bonus traits in particular. Do we really need a separate page for each bonus and reward trait? These two types of traits are basically similar to lifetime rewards. I don't think they warrant to have their own page at all. Also, the page has a redlink to an aspiration in The Sims 4, which I think doesn't warrant its own page as well.  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  10:17, September 2, 2014 (UTC)

 * I'm not saying that there might not be a point in the future in which traits or aspirations might warrant their own page.

 * I think it would be best to hold off creating all these trait pages until we at least learn more information about the traits.

If this is the case, it would be better to instead list traits into tables, and if needed, we can divide the table up into sub-pages if it gets too long. Until EA introduces a massive overhaul in the trait system (The Sims 4: Traits Expansion Pack, anyone?), we can delete this page for now.

@k6ka: That's what I had in mind about The Sims 4 traits too. Traits in The Sims 3 used to be gathered in a long list, until it's too long and we decided to separate them. It's possible that The Sims 4 trait would follow this way, but I prefer them to be gathered in a long list at the moment (since the are not too many traits anyway).

File:Tariq Al Mahmoud1.png|Tariq Al Mahmoud1
Several days ago I opened BodyShop and made Nina Caliente into an elder male, just to check that the article sentence "He has the same facial structure as his granddaughter Nina Caliente" was correct. I found that the information was false so I removed it.

A few days ago I thought "If Tariq can't be resurrected under normal circumstances, than how did a user manage to get a picture of him?" I checked the picture's history and found that it had been uploaded four years ago in April 2010 and added to the Tariq Al Mahmoud page, by a user who was indefinitely blocked in September, later that year.

While this image is in good shape, and managed to stay on the intended page for four years, yesterday I closely examined the picture and discovered that this was just a clone of the Sim in this picture. The ears are less prominent, the nose is shorter, and the mouth and eyebrows are a different shape.

It seems that the Sim in this image is really just an elderly male version of Nina Caliente disguised as Tariq which probably explains why users were tricked into believing that Tariq and Nina really had the same facial structure. Considering that this is not a canon image uploaded by a user that has been indefinitely blocked for years, I don't think it's necessary to keep it. --  C.Syde  ( talk &#124;  contribs ) 03:31, October 25, 2014 (UTC)

 * OK, I checked the Spanish wiki's article on him (he's Alí Ben Akí in Spanish), and it seems to use the same picture we do, for whatever that might be worth. Dharden (talk) 13:38, October 25, 2014 (UTC)
 * I've already pointed it out to the users of the Spanish Sims wiki. --  C.Syde  ( talk &#124;  contribs ) 21:27, October 25, 2014 (UTC)


 * Well I've just received a message from a spanish administrator. Despite my poor spanish, it seems that they understood what I said because they deleted the image there. So I can safely say that there's no reason why the image here can't be deleted again. --  C.Syde  ( talk &#124;  contribs ) 04:38, October 26, 2014 (UTC)
 * Re-deleted. --  LostInRiverview talk ~ blog 04:53, October 26, 2014 (UTC)

The Sims Land IRC Channel
The creator of this page had announced on IRC that he had created the channel because he wanted his own Sims channel. As of this writing the channel was created less than thirty minutes ago and is far from being remotely notable for having its own article. --I am  k6ka  Talk to me!

 * Agreed. It's gone. Dharden (talk) 20:57, October 25, 2014 (UTC)

File:Lothario Screams.jpg
Found this while going through the unused files. Looking for verification of whether this is an actual object obtainable within the game or is a fan-made object as the description gives no clues due to the public domain category. If it is indeed a real object I'd like to know the specific game it comes from as I feel it could be used on the Don Lothario page, or at the very least given a mention.


 * It's PD, so I'm guessing it's fanon content. --I am  k6ka  Talk to me!   See what I have done  23:44, October 26, 2014 (UTC)

 * It's not a Sim-made painting in The Sims 3, and Don is very different in The Sims 4. It might be from a Sim-made painting in The Sims 2, but I highly doubt it.  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  11:14, October 28, 2014 (UTC)

Good enough for me, deleted.

Anole Lizard
It doesn't warrant its own page. There's not much to say.  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  16:53, November 9, 2014 (UTC)
 * I agree, information is already listed elsewhere anyway. Deleted.

My First Steps As A Member Of Wikia
Since this blog belongs to an indefinitely blocked user, and thus the topic of the blog is now redundant. I don't see any reason to keep it. But those are just my thoughts on this.

Perhaps we could at least close the blog, if no one's prepared to support deletion. --  C.Syde  ( talk &#124;  contribs ) 07:57, January 3, 2015 (UTC)


 * I don't agree with having the blog here either, so I've deleted it. The user was technically evading a block during that time, and Wikipedia's policy is to revert/delete any edits/pages a user makes while they're evading a block or ban


 * Whoops, we're not Wikipedia. Oh well. Deleted. --I am  k6ka  Talk to me!   See what I have done  21:28, January 3, 2015 (UTC)

The Sims 4: Get To Work
Added a working link to the listing on Origin. EA has confirmed the expansion, released a press release, pics and a trailer. It should NOT be deleted. The Black Scorpion (talk) 00:06, February 5, 2015 (UTC)
 * Per the Unreleased Games Policy, "Any new articles created for a newly-confirmed game must link to a source of official confirmation from Electronic Arts, or they will be deleted." Since the link on the article is currently valid, this requirement has been satisfied, and I have removed the deletion template from the article. --  LostInRiverview talk • blog  •  contribs 00:07, February 5, 2015 (UTC)

Template:Adventure
In going through the templates currently listed under Category:Templates, I came across. Right now this template is only used on one page. It doesn't have any complex code, and from what I can see there's no real reason why we need this template. The page where it's used could easily have the template substituted onto it, and then we can copy the style from that page if necessary. Ultimately I think this template is too limited to be of much use. --  LostInRiverview talk • blog  •  contribs 01:05, February 21, 2015 (UTC)
 * I think it's kinda obsolete. Right now I'm making a list of opportunities (God only knows if I can finish it) using Opp, and since basically an adventure is also an opportunity, the whole template can be replaced with this one I'm using. I even planned to get rid of Opportunity once I'm done with all of this list of opportunities.  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  05:20, February 21, 2015 (UTC)
