IOS version is inaccurate
I have noticed that the IOS version is still 1.0, but it is actually 1.0.1. Could anyone with admin privileges correct this when you have the time? Thanks.--SamGamgee55 (talk) 00:49, 11 January 2017 (UTC)SamGamgee55

The TWO win10 versions
It was recently announced that Win10 cellphones have been abandoned by Win10 Edition, with 0.16.x being the last version for them. So Win10 Edition now has TWO latest versions, 1.0 for PC and 0.16.x for cellphone. –Preceding unsigned comment was added by WildBluntHickok (talk • contribs) at 4:55, 21 January 2017 (UTC).

 * Versions that are not supported are not shown here; the Pi Edition is not mentioned at all. The BlobsPaper.png 05:26, 21 January 2017 (UTC)


 * The Windows 10 edition is computer exclusive. Windows 10 mobile uses the Windows Phone 8.1 edition, which has been abandoned. –Majr ᐸ Talk Contribs 06:30, 21 January 2017 (UTC)

The Pocket edition 1.0.2 Is here!
The Pocket Edition is realsed January 19, 2017! But that version isn't at the Recent updates now. Are any Admin can add that version to Recent updates section? Jacie krece (talk) 18:27, 24 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Our most active admins are . The BlobsPaper.png 18:49, 24 January 2017 (UTC)

New launcher released
1.6.76 is no longer latest launcher. 2.0.806 is now released as it has left the staging process --Yzampt (talk) 07:15, 10 February 2017 (UTC)

Sold Copies
121 million is going around everywhere as the number of copies sold. I thought we might want to update the wiki. Syberiyxx (talk) 12:44, 12 April 2017 (UTC)
 * That sounds rather high. Where did you get the information? If it is not from Mojang, it is likely false., how many copies were sold? The BlobsPaper.png 02:56, 17 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Well, we've sold more than that by now since that was at the end of February but as of February 28th, yes, that number is correct- however, it includes ALL editions of Minecraft. So all the console editions, all the pocket editions, all the PC editions & Education Edition is included in that number. --HelenAngel (talk) 20:02, 18 April 2017 (UTC)

Category icons
Why not make the border of each icons of categories (Gameplay, etc) to a separate file (maybe File:Categorybg.png or File:Categoryborder.png)? Just a suggestion. DentedHarp90041tc 07:23, 17 May 2017 (UTC)
 * I don't see a need for category icons.
 * Also, this talk page is for discussing the main page rather than the wiki as a whole. The BlobsPaper.png 14:46, 17 May 2017 (UTC)

Still says latest development version is 1.12-pre2
Can an admin please fix this? — Nixinova (talk • edits • pages) 04:44, 19 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Okay Majr has fixed it now – Nixinova • Grid_Book_and_Quill.png Grid_Diamond_Pickaxe.png Grid_Map.png • 08:13, 23 May 2017 (UTC)

100 million sales
On June 2, 2016, Minecraft surpassed 100 million sales. I think this should be added to the main page. [https://mojang.com/2016/06/weve-sold-minecraft-many-many-times-look/ We've sold Minecraft many, many times! LOOK!] [Mojang.com] – Nixinova •   • 04:54, 25 May 2017 (UTC)


 * It has been there since the start of the year, and currently mentions the much more up-to-date total of 122 million sales. –Majr ᐸ Talk Contribs 05:11, 25 May 2017 (UTC)


 * But I think it should be mentioned somewhere that that was the time where it surpasses 100 million – Nixinova • Grid_Book_and_Quill.png Grid_Diamond_Pickaxe.png Grid_Map.png • 06:02, 25 May 2017 (UTC)


 * I don't see how an arbitrary historical milestone is relevant to the main page. –Majr ᐸ Talk Contribs 07:00, 27 May 2017 (UTC)

Pocket 1.1 released
Again, the page needs updating. This time the Recent updates section for Pocket Edition 1.1 – Nixinova •   • 20:08, 2 June 2017 (UTC)

Minecraft Switch subreddit
Hey, what about adding the subreddit for the Switch Edition? https://www.reddit.com/r/MinecraftSwitch/ --Capopanzone (talk) 16:31, 7 June 2017 (UTC)


 * Looks very unofficial to me. The background picture is not even Minecraft related, and none of the Mojang members are moderators. Then again, most of the subs are like that except /r/Minecraft. It raises the question on where to draw the line between "list all the subs" (which would be way to many) and "list the important ones" (what qualifies as important?). – KnightMiner  t/c 22:09, 7 June 2017 (UTC)


 * Well, the subreddit is small so I guess they didn't care for the CSS. There are no Mojang devs on the Xbox 360, Xbox One and PlayStation subreddits either. Should those be removed as well? IMHO it's not bad to put there community "hubs" for each version --Capopanzone (talk) 17:22, 8 June 2017 (UTC)


 * I would suggest to just wait some time and see if the subreddit develops or not. I'm not a fan of linking to a minecraft subreddit just for the sake of having one for that edition/topic. --Pepijn (talk) 17:31, 8 June 2017 (UTC)


 * Never mind, with the new announcements from E3, stuff is gonna changing --Capopanzone (talk) 10:08, 12 June 2017 (UTC)

Xbox One version
Why is the version for Xbox One listed as CU53? Xbox 360 is on TU53, but I'm pretty sure Xbox One is on CU43. The previous update was CU42, and the bugtracker also lists CU43 instead of CU53. The only source for CU53 is the forum post on minecraftforum by Padware, but that looks like a mistake. --Pepijn (talk) 22:01, 14 June 2017 (UTC)
 * I've sent Padware a message asking for some clarification so there will be no doubt. --Pepijn (talk) 22:03, 14 June 2017 (UTC)
 * I've not yet received a reply, but the minecraftforum changelog has now been changed to CU43 instead of CU53. --Pepijn (talk) 09:49, 15 June 2017 (UTC)

Renaming
Computer edition should be changed to Java Edition to comply with the new names. MCW:Projects/Renaming – Nixinova •   • 07:25, 15 June 2017 (UTC)
 * We should probably wait with renaming anything till we have a decent plan, to avoid confusion. For anyone interested in helping, see Minecraft_Wiki:Projects/Renaming. --Pepijn (talk) 09:48, 15 June 2017 (UTC)

youtu.be
Can anyone explain why it's possible to cite articles with a youtube.com/watch URL, but not shortened youtu.be URLs? As far as I'm aware, the youtu.be URL shortener only ever links to the full youtube URL, and the video ID is in both links, so I wouldn't consider it deceptive or hiding anything. NickNackGus (talk) 14:50, 2 September 2017 (UTC)


 * MCW:Admin noticeboard. Shorteners are blocked because, according to Orthotope, “the hide the true destination of links”. Also, there’s no significant reason to use shorteners, because saving a few characters doesn’t help much.
 * You have wrote the message in the wrong place. It would be preferable to go to the Admin Noticeboard instead. —  BabylonAS (talk | ru.Wiki Admin) (fka NickTheRed37) 15:11, 2 September 2017 (UTC)
