The Internet Explorer hopes you all survived Monday.
Today, The Internet Explorer is reviewing The Sims Wiki.
The Sims Wiki is an wiki for Sims players (go figure). It's fairly similar to the traditional Wiki format, except for the colorful plumbob green. The buttons are the same as the Wiki template, but with additions for cheats and individual Sims games.
Since each Sims game has its own page, possible confusion is at a minimum. However, at the home pages for the Sims 1 and 3, the search item layout is an annoyance. There is no homepage as there is for the Sims 2, only sections with the articles pertaining to 1 and 3. It's blatantly obvious that the Wiki was written by Sims 2 lovers, due to the huge amount of TLC attributed to the Sims 2 homepage. Nothing wrong with that, but the Wiki would be nicer with equal attention devoted to each game.
Each expansion for each game is discussed adequately (yet almost better on Wikipedia) with again, extra attention to the Sims 2.
At the bottom there are some rather unusual features, including rating the article and who last edited the article. The Internet Explorer is a bit unsure what the rating feature is for, though.
A glimpse of statistics from the Sims Wiki:
| Page statistics | |
|---|---|
| Content pages | 3,032 |
| Pages (All pages in the wiki, including talk pages, redirects, etc.) | 14,405 |
| Uploaded files | 4,100 |
| Edit statistics | |

| Average edits per page | 5.24 |
