Excel file with job details

I started working at this on April 8th and published above summary table on April 11th 2020 sourcing data from https://sims.fandom.com/wiki/Career_tracks. Finished writing all job details on 17th April, and updated later with new jobs added by expansion packs.

Note: The Sims 4 development is still undergoing as 2022, new expansions packs may be released anytime, including new jobs. Beside this, Fandom Wiki is made by volunteers and there may be a delay until all info is added (Freelancer career is missing info) or mistakes that will be corrected over time. I do not intend to buy the game myself, and even if I would buy it, I do not have time to play and check myself each job to correct possible errors.

  1. so, lemme get this straight…you’ve taken freely available data from a wiki maintained by fans of the series, put it into an excel file…and you’re charging people for it? for information that they could very easily get for free?

    why?
