Talk:Java Edition 1.14 Pre-Release 1

Moving the page
Discussing whether or not this should be moved to "Java Edition 1.14 Pre-Release 1", which is the in-game name for the version (unlike previous pre-releases).


 * No other pre-release pages are named as the proposal suggests. -PancakeIdentity (talk) 23:49, 10 April 2019 (UTC)


 * The others all follow their in-game names, this one currently doesn’t. Though I also because of the inconsistency it’d cause. There’s already redirects for it, so it’s fine as it currently is IMO. FVbico (talk) 23:51, 10 April 2019 (UTC)


 * Actually, since beta 1.8 and beta 1.9 also use the full naming both in-game and on the wiki, it’s probably best to stick with the full name. FVbico (talk) 16:24, 11 April 2019 (UTC)


 * I think this needs to be a bigger discussion somewhere about whether or not we rename everything. I'd say no myself, as it's too much hassle for such a small difference. -PancakeIdentity (talk) 23:58, 10 April 2019 (UTC)


 * They've started doing different version IDs (the ID for this version is literally  including the spaces, while before IDs were   and similar (this can be seen in the version manifest).  This has already caused a bit of a kerfluffle here and elsewhere (since a lot of things don't like spaces).  But Mojang does seem to be doing a new pattern.  I don't have a strong opinion on whether we need to follow it, though.  (Do note that if it is moved, the protocol version data will need to be updated to use the new name.) --Pokechu22 (talk) 23:54, 10 April 2019 (UTC)


 * per FVbico and PancakeIdentity. -BDJP (t 00:01, 11 April 2019 (UTC)


 * , because why should we persist calling it -pre1 when (correct me if i'm wrong) it's not actually called that anywhere? We have a convention of calling things by their names, I thought. – Sealbudsman talk | contribs 00:12, 11 April 2019 (UTC)


 * . While it's good to have the official name as the page name, it's both longer and inconsistent with the other pages on this wiki. Just set the infobox to have Pre-release and move on. – Nixinova Nixinova sig1.png Nixinova sig2.png 03:21, 11 April 2019 (UTC)


 * . Hmmmm 1.9 pre-releases are called  ingame but editors put as   article see Java Edition 1.9-pre1 -Ellaflowercutie (talk) 05:56, 11 April 2019 (UTC)
 * 1.9 pre-releases are all named "1.9-pre#". Maybe you're thinking about Beta? – Nixinova Nixinova sig1.png Nixinova sig2.png 06:05, 11 April 2019 (UTC)


 * per the argument of Sealbudsman. "pre1" can stay as a redirect and old names should not be changed. Robotkoer (talk) 07:11, 11 April 2019 (UTC)


 * - are there any other cases where the in-game name of a pre-release doesnt match? - User-12316399 (talk) 15:16, 11 April 2019 (UTC)


 * citing https://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Java_Edition_Beta_1.8_Pre-release_2_;) with its literal smiley face included - tryashtar (talk) 16:24, 11 April 2019 (UTC)


 * Not necessary when there is no potential page conflict. liach (talk) 16:29, 11 April 2019 (UTC)


 * AFAIK, every other version number on the wiki matches its in-game title, even the one with the wink emoticon in it. CyanRyan1 (talk) 18:42, 11 April 2019 (UTC)
