Minecraft Wiki:Admin noticeboard

__NEWSECTIONLINK__ The Admin noticeboard is one way through which users can notify administrators of issues needing administrative attention. While users are welcome to directly contact specific administrators (especially if they are seen to be active), posting here can be an easier and quicker way of ensuring that at least one admin will notice an issue and respond to it promptly. Remember to sign when posting an issue.

Before posting an issue here, consider the following:
 * This page is for reporting wiki issues. Please post discussions on the talk page.
 * Post only issues that require administrative action, i.e. blocking vandals, protecting pages, restoring deleted pages etc.
 * Do not post deletion requests here. Deletion requests should be made by adding  to the top of the target page, which will then automatically mark the page as a candidate for deletion.
 * Do not post issues regarding content disputes. Try making a request for comments instead.
 * Mediation requests between users should only be made if a resolution could not be reached between users.
 * For issues regarding the use of this wiki, please see our help center.

In case of vandalism, 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 edits 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.

Piston
Got an error not from the page itself, but from a diff that was in Recent Changes: http://www.minecraftwiki.net/index.php?title=Piston&diff=460935&oldid=460661 I suppose this might be legitimate revision deletion, but I can't tell.

 * Interesting. That revision (460935) does not show up in the history. We can't really do anything to a specific revision but hide it, but I tried deleting/restoring the whole page and that revision is still erroring.  23:26, 7 April 2013 (UTC)

Please review/approve my edit which removes a section
I tried to edit the spawn page, and amalgamate the multiplayer and singleplayer player spawn sections, seeing as they are one and the same since the client/server merge. However I get a message telling me my edit was automatically identified as harmful and that I should contact and administrator, so here I am. --Majaha 18:46, 18 March 2013 (UTC)


 * . If you join the Autoconfirmed users group you won't be bothered by restrictions like that. –ultradude25 ᐸ Talk Contribs 01:19, 21 March 2013 (UTC)

Please block! Vandalism! ILeon 12:12, 26 March 2013 (UTC)
 * He also emptied my talk page in German MCWiki. ILeon 12:22, 26 March 2013 (UTC)


 * Banned, haven't gone through to make sure all his edits were reverted yet. -- Orthotope 18:57, 26 March 2013 (UTC)


 * If on this page is no "top" after a page name, then this is not the latest version of the page. ILeon 20:28, 26 March 2013 (UTC)

Moving File
Could someone move the file File:AetherCSS.png to, File:AetherCSSEN.png so there are no problems with the German MCWiki anymore. Because the German MCWiki use another under the same name. ILeon 13:26, 29 March 2013 (UTC)


 * Why don't you move your file instead? Ours is already used on tons of pages, yours isn't used on any. –ultradude25 ᐸ Talk Contribs 13:35, 29 March 2013 (UTC)


 * You are right. Sorry. ILeon 13:42, 29 March 2013 (UTC)

Vandalized the Diamond and Lava pages. Warned the user 2 times. -- BrandonSkyPimenta  (Need help?) 17:49, 29 March 2013 (UTC)


 * Seems to have stopped after the warnings, no admin action needed at this time. -- Orthotope 09:13, 5 April 2013 (UTC)

April Fool's Day.
For non-Americans, please note that today is April Fool's Day, on which it is traditional to play pranks. Given that some folk have a low standard for pranks, it might be a busy day on the anti-vandalism front. (It's just about 9AM Eastern Time here, doesn't look too bad so far.) --Mental Mouse 12:59, 1 April 2013 (UTC)
 * Yes. The german wiki enjoy this day! :D de:NPC-Dorf (Nether), de:Netherbrunnen. ILeon 13:03, 1 April 2013 (UTC)

Inappropriate username. ILeon 22:35, 3 April 2013 (UTC)
 * And a spam article (90000 bytes) MISSPELLED. 5 minutes after it was created (that's when I got home), I replaced it with the delete template. It still hasn't been deleted. hotdogPi--t--c--QUIZ! 22:56, 3 April 2013 (UTC)


 * Blocked by Ultradude. -- Orthotope 09:13, 5 April 2013 (UTC)

Edit conflict shouldn't happen as often
I've been getting edit conflicts when I was editing a completely different section from the other person, and this shouldn't happen. hotdogPi--t--c--QUIZ! 22:56, 3 April 2013 (UTC)


 * Sounds like a MediaWiki issue, which we don't have much control over. Hopefully the upgrade in a few months will fix this. -- Orthotope 09:13, 5 April 2013 (UTC)

File:AetherCSS.png
"Error creating thumbnail: File seems to be missing: /home/minecraftwiki/public_html/images/4/4e/AetherCSS.png" — corrupted file? --GreenStone(cont) (ru.Wiki Admin) 13:27, 9 April 2013 (UTC)


 * It was deleted on the German wiki, which broke it here due to the shared image database. I reverted to the previous version, Template:AetherSprite may need to be changed to match it. -- Orthotope 02:53, 10 April 2013 (UTC)


 * I uploaded what I believe to be the file we had, based upon the German wiki's file history.  07:11, 10 April 2013 (UTC)

block template
Template for these blocks fails to show on my computer. It always did, but has recently not been showing the block template. Any reason? -- Numbermaniac  - T  - C 23:49, 9 April 2013 (UTC)


 * Looks fine to me. Can you provide a screenshot of what you're seeing? -- Orthotope 02:53, 10 April 2013 (UTC)


 * It shows fine on my tablet. It used to show fine on my computer, but it just doesn't appear anymore. It simply looks as though there is no box. When I go on my computer later, I can take a screenshot. -- Numbermaniac  - T  - C 03:58, 10 April 2013 (UTC)


 * File:NoBlock.jpg. This same thing applies for all blocks, mobs etc. -- Numbermaniac  - T  - C 08:08, 10 April 2013 (UTC)


 * I'm not quite sure what the issue is. I tested out your common.css thinking it was the iframe, but it wasn't. Have you tried a different browser?  08:52, 10 April 2013 (UTC)


 * Always worked in Chrome, not anymore. Don't have time now, but I will check tomorrow. It happens logged in or not. -- Numbermaniac  - T  - C 08:57, 10 April 2013 (UTC)


 * The AdBlock Plus extension I installed for Chrome seems to have removed it. Disabling it brings the boxes back. -- Numbermaniac  - T  - C 00:23, 11 April 2013 (UTC)


 * I have both the AdBlock and AdBlock Plus extensions for Chrome (completely different authors/extensions) and nothing non-ad is blocked for me. Did you by any chance use the "block an element on this page" function on anything? All templates that produce the right-side box use infobox common, which shares a similar class (infobox) with the top (infobox.atfmrec) and bottom (infobox.btfmrec) ad spaces. If you set the element block too ambiguous, it may have hid the content infobox as well.  08:25, 11 April 2013 (UTC)


 * I know about both, and I have used both. I had originally blocked the ads with that before I learnt how to get rid of them with css. I had only set it to the ads, although it seems to have removed those boxes too. I wonder what happened. -- Numbermaniac  - T  - C 08:30, 11 April 2013 (UTC)
