Page(s) for deletion: Benali family and Lobo family

Outcome of discussion: I have decided to boldly redirect these pages instead of deleting them, as such things have been done in the past like k6ka said. Having them as redirects could also be kind of helpful for readers. - SimDestroyer (talk) 20:07, February 14, 2019 (UTC)

Discussion[]

These pages have been tagged for deletion with the rationale: "Single living Sims with no relatives don't need a family page."

Which brings up the question: Should single-Sim families have their own family page?

FWIW there's no harm in having the family page, as it provides a place to place the family bio (In previous games; not too sure about The Sims 4). Also, if the family gets expanded in the future, the family page already exists and doesn't need to be recreated. —k6ka 🍁 (Talk · Contributions) 14:03, May 27, 2017 (UTC)

Im opposing deletion of the pages since we dont know the future of those families because there still a chance that ea will expand those families in future. I also think single-Sim families can have their own family page with the same reason too. Wiryawan310 (talk) 01:07, May 28, 2017 (UTC)
The reason why I tagged these pages for deletion is, that the family page and the sim page share the same information. Of course it can be changed, but still the family pages in my opinion shouldn't really exist. These two Sims don't have any relatives at all, and they are very unlikely to be expanded or featured in The Sims 5, unless they become very popular, like Don Lothario. There is single-living Sims in The Sims 3 that don't have family pages, and were never seemed to be even thought of having (Correct me if I'm wrong) and Johnny Zest does not have a family page, so why should these two Sims either? And the family bio has seemed to be put under the picture of the Sim (At least with Johnny Zest) because The Sims 4 does not have individual Sim bios. 85.29.96.107 (talk) 08:28, May 28, 2017 (UTC)
I agree with the anonymus poster before me and support deletion. Gvaudoin (talk) 14:59, March 12, 2018 (UTC)
During the TS3 era, Sims that lived alone (such as Hunter Cottoneye) were not granted family articles. This also extends to TS2 Sims who live alone, such as Erik Swain. There is precedent to deleting the articles here. To keep consistency, I support deletion. Ѧüя◎ґ (talk) 15:35, February 5, 2019 (UTC)
@Auror Andrachome: In which case, a redirect to Salim Benali and Diego Lobo, respectively, would be a better option since that's what we've done in the past, at least with some families. Things like Ashton family (redirects to Devin Ashton), Custard family (redirects to Caroline Custard) and Trill household (redirects to Aria Trill) are examples of what we've done to TS3 single-Sim households. —k6ka 🍁 (Talk · Contributions) 18:24, February 5, 2019 (UTC)
