It appears that different console platforms have different versions of an adult Malcolm. He does not always go into the same profession or marry the same person. This is going to make infoboxing and family-tree updating difficult. Dharden (talk) 22:06, December 24, 2010 (UTC)

Who is he?

Personally I think he must be a distant cousin to Malcolm Landgraab III, making him the second cousin to Malcolm Landgraab IV.C.Syde65 (talk) 11:11, December 20, 2013 (UTC)

Actually i think it's more like this:

Gregory Landgraab + Unknown lady = Kermit Landgraab

-

Kermit + Kitty = Chester Landgraab & Admiral Malcolm Landgraab I

-

Admiral Malcolm Landgraab I + Malcolm I's wife = Malcolm Landgraab II

Admiral Malcolm Landgraab I + Stella Livorno = Magnus Landgraab, François Landgraab

Chester + Queenie = Nancy

-

Malcolm II + Marion = Malcolm III

Nancy + Geoffrey (né Knack) = TS3!Malcolm

Magnus Landgraab + his wife = TS1!Malcolm

François Landgraab + Veronica = Todd

-

Malcolm III + Margaret (neé Buckingham) = Malcolm IV

TS3!Malcolm + Hannelore = Adrien

TS1!Malcolm + "Mom" = Dudley and Mimi

-

Malcolm IV + Bambi = Malcolm V (Malcolm VI, Malcolm VII, etc.)

Dudley changed his name to String Bean, even if he has kids they will have the "bean" surname anyway. Mimi marries into a poorer-class family and possibly takes their surname.

Adrien + someone (Rita Nelson?) = Posie's husband (Posie and her husband have Christina)

Todd + someone (Seema Sielen?) = someone (30-ish generations later, this "someone" gives birth to, or conceives, Oasis Landing's Gregory Landgraab.) 94.37.98.213 (talk) 22:19, June 12, 2014 (UTC)

The Landgraab family tree in my opinion

Admiral Landgraab/Gregory Landgraab -Married- Unknown

Kermit Landgraab (son/grandson/great-grandson of Gregory/Admiral Landgraab) -Married- Kitty Landgraab

Chester Landgraab (son of Kermit & Kitty) -Married- Queenie Landgraab (died young)

Malcolm Landgraab (Roaring Heights) (second son of Kermit & Kitty) -Married- Unknown/Stella Livorno (lover)

Nancy Landgraab (daughter of Chester & Kitty) -Married- Geoffrey Landgraab

Malcolm Landgraab II (son of Malcolm and ?) -Married- Marion Landgraab

Malcolm Landgraab (Sunset Valley) (son of Nancy and Geoffrey) -Married- Hannelore Landgraab

Malcolm Landgraab III (son of Malcolm II and Marion) -Married- Margaret Landgraab (both died young)

Adrien Landgraab (son of Malcolm and Hannelore) - Unknown

Malcolm Landgraab IV (son of Malcolm III and Marion) - Unknown

Malcolm Landgraab V? (possible son of Malcolm IV) -Married- Bambi Landgraab

Notes

I am NOT including Mom, console Malcolm, Dudley, Mimi and the mentioned Magnus Landgraab
I've listed the Nintendo DS Malcolm as the possible son of Malcolm Landgraab IV. This is just a theory based on the timeline.
I am not sure if the Landgraabs are more closely related to Gregory or Admiral Landgraab so I listed them both as possible parents, grandparents, great-grandparents or ancestors to Kermit.
I chose the Roaring Heights Malcolm as Malcolm Landgraab I since his age and his absence from the Sims 2 family tree add up. Of course the Sunset Valley Malcolm isn't Malcolm I since it would require him to be older than his own grandfather.

Suggestion to merge this page with Malcolm Landgraab (console)

I'd like to suggest merging the two pages for Malcolm Landgraab. Both articles could be improved and it seems highly likely that they are the same person. (It definitely makes more sense than the different versions of Bob Newbie and Betty Newbie being the same people.)

I agree that he's probably a distant cousin to Malcolm Landgraab III. It's also established that he remarried (possible multiple times).

Here's my speculative version of the Landgraab family tree that includes some ideas from previous posters:

Malcolm II. Landgraab

Malcolm III. Landgraab

Malcolm IV. Landgraab

Malcolm V. Landgraab

Bambi Landgraab

I'm not too entirely sure if we should be deciding whether or not all these Malcolm Landgraabs are the same people. Since the wiki is supposed to be reporting on the facts, if there are any ambiguities it may be better to keep pages separate. That being said, I noticed that there is a Sims 4 Sim on this page which should probably go on a Malcolm Landgraab (The Sims 4) and not in this article, given how TS4 is in a parallel universe. —k6ka 🍁 (Talk · Contributions) 15:07, January 24, 2018 (UTC)

Oh wait, hmm that page was already created... as a badly low quality stub. Perhaps it's time we organized this stuff better?

Since this Malcolm Landgraab appears in more games and appears to be more prominent, perhaps we could do the following:

Move Malcolm Landgraab (The Sims 3) (this page) to Malcolm Landgraab (currently a DAB page, which we can move to Malcolm Landgraab (disambiguation)
Merge Malcolm Landgraab (console) to Malcolm Landgraab

For the last point, though, is there any evidence that suggests the two are definitely the same person? That would be a lot of information crammed onto one page... and the excessive usage of {{Sim}} templates could possibly break the parser as those templates are not cheap to use. —k6ka 🍁 (Talk · Contributions) 15:13, January 24, 2018 (UTC)
