In other languages
This section contains channels for some languages the Minecraft Wiki is available in. Some wikis have their own Discord server, for those there is a message in that channel with an invite link to that server. If there isn't a separate Discord server for a language, the channel can be used as a discussion room in that language.

If you want to request an additional language channel, you can ask a server administrator in #discord to add it.

Hidden channels
There are a few channels that are hidden. Specifically, there's a channel for Administrator s and Server administrator s, one for Director s, and one for Server moderator s. The channels are used to coordinate the work in the team.

Bots
There are two Bot s on the server currently.

Wiki-Bot
Wiki-Bot is a helpful bot who can search for pages on the Minecraft Wiki, provide information about wiki users or Minecraft commands, and much more! You can interact with it in #bot-commands. To find out what it can do, use the command  or read the pinned message in #bot-commands.

Logger
Logger logs most of the actions that are happening on the server. There's also a log built into Discord, but that one gets cleared afer a certain amount of time. This bot is only relevant for server administrators.
