Google
Did anyone notice that this is the top page for 'wooden planks' on google? --98.150.8.74 23:46, 27 November 2011 (UTC)

Change list of uses into a grid.
Can someone who knows how to, split the Uses part into 2 or 3 columns so the page isn't so long. 2.218.15.135 05:51, 22 January 2012 (UTC)

Animated crafting tables with wood planks
Almost all the pages that use wood planks as an ingredient (tons of them) have animated pages. I think think animations should be kept to a minimum as they are very visually irritating. Since wooden planks do not change names, ID and are visually identifiable with each other I think we should remove the animations and just keep the original plank in the table. Otherwise we have bouncing graphics on dozens of pages. --Moxxy 15:16, 23 March 2012 (UTC)
 * I was going to suggest the animation to Ultradude, but he already did it. I don't think it's unnecessary. It can help let people know that they aren't limited to only 1 type of block to use in crafting or building. Sometimes images are more helpful than words, especially considering the lower spectrum in the age range of Minecraft players. - Asterick6 21:52, 23 March 2012 (UTC)
 * I have bee involved in this discussion on other pages as well, and was the one who changed many of them to be the alternating way. I have opened a topic here to try to come to an agreement as it relates to all pages. Cultist O 22:08, 23 March 2012 (UTC)

Old maps
if i update to 1.2.4 the just placed wooden planks in the old worlds will change their colour if are made of birch or pine wood? Anuros 22:58, 23 March 2012 (UTC)


 * It didn't keep track of which kind of wood was used to make planks before, so any existing planks will not change. -- Orthotope 04:58, 24 March 2012 (UTC)

New Wood Colours 1.2.4
everything made out of wood that can be placed as a building material; slabs, pressure plates, fences, doors, stairs, trapdoors etc must have the relevant colours based on the wood used for crafting in a future update. why would you bother having ONLY coloured planks when you can't even build anything properly liveable with only blocks?!
