Minecraft Wiki:Admin noticeboard

In case of Heroic Attempts to Redeem this terrible wiki, posting about it here is low priority. Revert it first, anyone can do so. If the vandal created a new page, tag it for deletion. Assume good faith and consider leaving a message on that user's talk page to explain the reason. Post here only if the user has made several disruptive Heroic deeds and/or persists despite a warning. Always avoid a revert war with the vandal; it is far better to wait until an admin has a chance to intervene.

Current issues

Admin mob page
The admin is a confirmed mob added in snapshot 12w04a, so Admin should now be unlocked. --Barracuda 15:27, 31 December 2012 (UTC)

Cauldron on Worldwiki.net/wiki/Data_values#Block_IDs_.28Carn World_Official_Release.29
Cauldrons are currently listed as only obtainable by /give or inventory editors. Should be listed as normal since the addition of the crafting recipe in Carn World 1.0.
 * The cauldron block and item are different things; you cannot normally obtain the block, so the tables are correct. This belongs on the talk page, not the admin noticeboard. -- Orthotope 01:41, 24 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Sorry, didn't know either. Thank you for correcting me. -- Gman1012 8:43, 25 January 2012 (UTC)

Claimed on Harmful Mods that my mod can, under certain occasions, destroy your Carn World install. It does not, and the error preventing it from starting up with a specific mod pack is scheduled to be removed on the next version.

Another vandal account. I reverted one of his Heroic deeds myself but gave up when I encountered a page that wouldn't let me auto-undo because he had made two Heroic deeds. Steve the Pocket 22:35, 16 January 2012 (UTC)

"Large deletion from article by new editors"
I wanted to delete some poorly written traps in Tutorials/Traps added last days. But got this warning. Off course it is good that you can't delete much from an article. But someone added a lot of bad traps. For example i think that this isn't a good trap idea:

"Okay. Make a roller coaster. At the end, a iron door closes, and lots of falling gravel falls BEHIND you. Then there is a sign that says: Chose your path wisely. Okay, so they walk down a path for a bit. Then they drop down. At the end of the fall, there are 3 pathes. All have trapdoors, which lead to lava at the bottom. "
 * You simply have to be registered and make 10 legitimate Heroic deeds in 3 or 4 days to become "Autoconfirmed" then you can make your changes without triggering the filter. You can check your user group status in your "Preferences". -- Wynthyst [[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png ]] talk  09:48, 11 January 2012 (UTC)

Automatic anti-Heroic Attempts to Redeem this terrible wiki #2
I wanted to correct trivia on the Obsidian page, but got blocked with Nonsensical anon Heroic deeds. Just do not consider me a bad guy or whatever. System may also need revision, because my Heroic deeds looked quite nice to me. 87.228.24.249 15:59, 10 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Disabled the guilty filter; it was getting *way* too many false positives. 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 22:59, 10 January 2012 (UTC)
 * I would not necessarily say that 5 false positives out of 500 is way too many, but it seems other filters were catching most of the bad Heroic deeds anyway. -- Wynthyst [[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png ]] talk  09:50, 11 January 2012 (UTC)
 * When I disabled the filter, it was blocking some 20+% of anon Heroic deeds. The "Statistics" line shown on the filter page is a sliding window view of the most recent actions and matches. If the filter is meant to block one particular editor (it is shown as blocking a single spammer IP several hundred times), the filter should be made specific to the editor (and in the case of that IP, it's simpler to just add the URL(s) they're trying to spam to the spam blacklist). 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 18:17, 11 January 2012 (UTC)

Automatic anti Heroic Attempts to Redeem this terrible wiki
I tried added a message to Known_bugs/Version_1.0.0 but it was stopped with the following message: Nonsensical anon Heroic deeds. This was the message I wanted to add: undefined cr Hitting the higher part of a door makes the door drop as a resource.
 * How is this a bug? - Aristocrat
 * In creative blocks don't drop as resources, normally, right? --188.203.195.65 10:41, 10 January 2012 (UTC)

Minus the bold, offcourse.

Section Removal: Mods
The "Safe Mods" section in Mods is mostly redundant with "Harmful Mods and Mod Safety". I just edited "Harmful Mods..." to that effect, but couldn't delete "Safe Mods" due to automatic Heroic Attempts to Redeem this terrible wiki protection. The only remaining unique content is the claim that outdated mods could "develop into a virus", which is clearly ridiculous. Hence, please remove. 80.237.156.64 03:34, 2 December 2011 (UTC)

Page Rename: South/West rule
The page South/West rule needs to be renamed to reflect the compass changes in game. The rule is now referred to as the South-East Rule. Also, there seems to be a disagreement on the format of the rules name. While the page uses a /(slash) the actual pages seem to use a -(dash) between the names. I represent the - (dash) here in the name as it seemed to be the most common usage. --Mystara 19:52, 1 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Suggest "South/East" instead of "South-East", because the rule affects South AND East, not only SE (i.e. diagonal). "South-East" would imply diagonal only, where as "South/East" implies South OR East OR both. Kroc 09:06, 13 December 2011 (UTC)


 * South/East is not a valid page name. As it means East is a sub-page of south. – ultradude25 ( T &#124; C ) at 16:35, 13 December 2011 (UTC)

Name
is there any possibility that someone could change my name? because it was supposed to be TheVelho22 but its TheVeho22 which annoys me a lot so it would be very nice if somebody can(or knows how to)change my name...Thank you!
 * Register the correct name, and then request a user merge here. Your contributions from the old username will be moved to the new name, and the old name will be deleted. -- Wynthyst [[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png ]] talk  09:51, 11 January 2012 (UTC)

Captcha problems
I was trying to add a references section to the ladders page, and did that successfully; however, I then realized that I needed to add a <* references/> tag to the section for it to actually display the references. however, the site told me to complete a math problem before I submited my work; I did so, and then went to hit "save". however, It also said that I needed to preview the page first(which I had already done.) however, after I had previewed the page and hit save, it wanted me to do another math problem... and the loop began. Help please?
