Articles on The Sims Wiki are intended to all share the same narrative point of view; point of view is here defined as the perspective from which the narrative (i.e., the topic of the article) is viewed. Having a cohesive point of view across all articles encourages more well-written, encyclopedic articles, and aids in audience understanding of a particular topic. Articles on The Sims Wiki should not use first-person or second-person points of view, but should instead only be written in third-person point of view (except in directly quoted text). Examples of different narrative perspectives

abstract	Articles on The Sims Wiki are intended to all share the same narrative point of view; point of view is here defined as the perspective from which the narrative (i.e., the topic of the article) is viewed. Having a cohesive point of view across all articles encourages more well-written, encyclopedic articles, and aids in audience understanding of a particular topic. Articles on The Sims Wiki should not use first-person or second-person points of view, but should instead only be written in third-person point of view (except in directly quoted text). Examples of different narrative perspectives Many editors make the mistake of writing articles or article sections in the wrong narrative point of view. Some editors may write as if they themselves are speaking on behalf of the article. For example, read the following statement: "The gallery is an in-game exchange feature, allowing me to share my Sims, families, and buildings with other Sims players." The example above is written in first-person point of view. Articles on the wiki should not use this point of view, as it makes the article appear to be written from a single player's experience, rather than the experience of all players. To that end, avoid using first-person pronouns such as I or me (unless used in a quotation). Additionally, many editors mistakenly write in this manner: "The gallery is an in-game exchange feature, allowing you to share your Sims, families, and buildings with other Sims players." This example demonstrates second-person point of view. Second-person point of view is often informal and ambiguous, and should not be used in main namespace articles. The following example demonstrates a correct point of view usage: "The gallery is an in-game exchange feature, allowing players to share their Sims, families, and buildings with other Sims players." The example is written in third-person point of view. This point of view refers to the subject in an objective manner and from an external perspective.
