Minecraft Wiki:Admin noticeboard

Freeing up Version template
For: ... I'm going to make copied versions: ... to free up that whole thing from its cascade restriction – the same idea as previously with ItemSprite, discussed in this topic.
 * Module:Version/Numbers, Module:Version and Version
 * Module:Version front page/Numbers, Module:Version front page and Version front page

It won't solve the issue with people clamoring for someone to update the front page, but it will help for updating Minecraft, Pocket Edition, Console Edition and Minecraft launcher (and probably a few others). – Sealbudsman talk/contr 15:19, 3 June 2017 (UTC)


 * As an alternative to having two near-identical templates that have to be kept in sync, we could change the main page to directors-only protection. -- Orthotopetalk 17:59, 3 June 2017 (UTC)


 * We could do that. We could also eliminate the front-page-template entirely by embedding the respective variables in the front page, I think. – Sealbudsman talk/contr 19:16, 3 June 2017 (UTC)


 * Because the front page was late being updated, I was researching how it worked when I ran across your updated Template:Version doc saying it wasn't used on the front page...yet it very clearly was in use there. Color me confused! I almost put a note on Majr's talk page in case it was by accident. So I'm guessing I caught it while you were in the middle of coordinated changes. If so, could you please leave a note here to say when you've completed it? Thanks! – Auldrick (talk &middot; contribs) 18:41, 3 June 2017 (UTC)


 * I forgot to mention: The front page still shows 1.1 in the Planned Versions table. I'm not sure who needs to update that. – Auldrick (talk &middot; contribs) 18:44, 3 June 2017 (UTC)


 * Oh my, sorry for the confusion. – Sealbudsman talk/contr 19:16, 3 June 2017 (UTC)


 * I'm not sure adding a separate template for that is a good idea given it is for the most part only used on the front page, and the other few places tend to be fine waiting a bit for the update. The front page gets the most questions waiting for the update anyways.
 * I think removing the cascading protection is a decent option, though an extra close watch on main page templates would have to be kept. – KnightMiner  · (t) 22:06, 3 June 2017 (UTC)


 * Directly on the page are: Version, FrontPageLink, Minecraft Wiki/edition and Minecraft Wiki/style.
 * Protection cascades further to: Module:Version, Module:Version/Numbers, Module:FrontPageSprite, Module:FrontPageSprite/IDs.
 * If cascade was removed, we could heighten permission on Template:FrontPageLink, module:FrontPageSprite and /IDs, and /edition and /style, and I think that's all. Then only other thing to keep track of would be Template:Version, Module:Version and Module:Version/Numbers. –  Sealbudsman talk/contr 22:29, 3 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Would a good idea be semi-protecting the remainder? From what I've seen so far here anonymous users don't make good edits to templates often, if they even get to them. --Hubry (talk) 22:37, 3 June 2017 (UTC)


 * I doubt that creating a duplicate template for the front page will solve anything because most users who complain about updating the version numbers complain only because the version numbers on the front page aren't updated. And Module:Version front page/Numbers still would need to be edited by admins. | violine1101(Talk) 08:30, 4 June 2017 (UTC)


 * Ideas so far:

To allow more people to update the versions on the front page, we could:
 * change the protection to directors.

And if we want to free up the Version template, instead of using a duplicate template, we could do one of two things:
 * remove cascade from the main page, raise the protections on other transcludes and semi-protect the version template, or
 * hard-code the variables in the page. (rendering the Version template mostly redundant)

Any thoughts? – Sealbudsman talk/contr 15:48, 4 June 2017 (UTC)
 * We could have an edit copy for the template, which would be semi-protected and used on the edit copy for the main page. The BlobsPaper.png 03:27, 5 June 2017 (UTC)


 * As far as I know, the only place where the current version numbers are actually used are the Edition pages (Minecraft, Pocket Edition, Console Edition etc). Using hard-coded variables would make the template pretty much redundant, wouldn't it? | violine1101(Talk) 09:39, 5 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Bump. | violine1101(Talk) 18:32, 7 June 2017 (UTC)
 * I believe you are right about that. – Sealbudsman talk/contr 18:50, 7 June 2017 (UTC)

CPU-intensive ads
Can we do something about the ads on the Wiki? Currently, the Minecraft Wiki imposes a heavier processor load than the Minecraft game itself! 108.254.144.254 20:15, 6 June 2017 (UTC)

Someone needs to change the current version on the main page to 1.12, because it came out today. I don't have admin privileges so I can't.

 * Blobs2, please remember that indefblocking an IP address is considered a bad tone because this action, if the address is not static (which means the user isn't switching addresses after each connection), may cause other innocent people to be under the block. Unfortunately, it isn't possible to predict which IP address will be used by a malicious user next time. &mdash; NickTheRed37 (talk) 12:57, 19 June 2017 (UTC)

Image cacheing
Can anything be done about the image caching taking the better part of a day to refresh? It seems to me that when you upload a new version of a file, that should be propagated out to all caches, but this doesn't happen. Is the length of time we wait totally necessary? Thanks for consideration, – Sealbudsman talk/contr 21:04, 23 June 2017 (UTC)


 * Or maybe there a way to purge an image's cache, that I am missing? – Sealbudsman talk/contr 21:25, 23 June 2017 (UTC)

Ok, I'm reading about it more, and the situation is acknowledged in MediaWiki's CloudFlare manual at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:CloudFlare#HTTP_purge, and reported at https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T64356: MediaWiki cannot purge single assets cached in CloudFlare. Booooo. –  Sealbudsman talk/contr 15:47, 24 June 2017 (UTC)
 * I wonder if Curse would be willing to throw resources behind getting T64356 straightened out and getting single-file-purge working for cloudflare. It's an open source project after all? And it affects all of Gamepedia. – Sealbudsman talk/contr 15:56, 24 June 2017 (UTC)

 * I've had that issue too earlier. It was really weird because my IP address is completely different and I'm in a completely different part of the world than what IP lookup sites give me.
 * Anyways, tell him to log out of Gamepedia and delete all Gamepedia cookies (MCW cookies might be enough, but I've cleared all of them) - I've done that and that fixed it for me. --Hubry(talk) 18:42, 5 July 2017 (UTC)

 * Some users are sent over an Amazon proxy to reduce page load time, which also changes their ip adress to that proxy. This should only happen for mobile users though, but it sometimes also happens for desktop users. (See also Minecraft Wiki talk:Community portal) | violine1101(Talk) 20:22, 5 July 2017 (UTC)

Bots not showing as bots
Bots such as are not showing up as bots in edit logs and Special:RecentChanges, aka b is not showing next to the edit which means "Show/hide bots" does nothing at all. Can someone tag bots as bots? – Nixinova   04:27, 6 July 2017 (UTC)


 * Bots don't get flagged as such automatically, and if no one requests a bot flag for them, chances are they'll go without. I've flagged Ffbot; if there are others which need the flag, please list them here and I'll flag them as well (this goes for the future as well). 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 05:22, 6 July 2017 (UTC)


 * (Also note that the bot flag doesn't apply retroactively: while future edits will be flagged as bot edits, edits which were made before the flag was added are still considered non-bot edits.) 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 05:23, 6 July 2017 (UTC)


 * Actually I have applied for the bot tag, while Majr rejected that.-- Ff98sha (talk) 05:53, 6 July 2017 (UTC)


 * While he can (and should) correct me if I'm misinterpreting his intent, my reading of your request and the subsequent discussion was that the refusal was about having your bot do extra tasks, rather than having it flagged as a bot. 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 08:39, 6 July 2017 (UTC)


 * Also, if the request was rejected to get the bot right, the correct thing to do would be to not make contributions using the bot instead of making them without the tag. I cannot imagine any reason why he would want your bot to operate without the bot tag.
 * What exactly is the bots purpose anyways? Most of the contributions I have seen are useless whitespace changes or other tweaks that do not affect the final rendered page. Both of these things are normally fine to do as general fixes while performing other actions but are rather pointless on their own. – KnightMiner  · (t) 00:02, 8 July 2017 (UTC)

Nearly a month ago, Emberbot changed the Hungarian wiki's main page that only admins can edit it. It does not matter if you have an active admin on the wiki. But because there are no, so there are only foreign admins can change it.

Why is this? – Nixinova   05:05, 27 July 2017 (UTC)


 * Almost every URL shortener is prohibited here, as there is no reason to use them. Saving a couple of characters does not make any significant difference, and they hide the true destination of links. -- Orthotopetalk 10:36, 27 July 2017 (UTC)


 * Can youtu.be in particular be reconsidered? From what I'm aware, youtu.be never links to anything except a YouTube video, and the part after the slash is the video ID - the same ID used by the full link. Even if it is not unblocked, it is YouTube's default method of sharing a link to a YouTube video, so it will continue to cause confusion. If it isn't removed from the spam filter, then can the spam filter warning be changed to explain that URL shorteners are blocked, and maybe link to this noticeboard or elsewhere with the reasoning and how to get the full URL? NickNackGus (talk) 03:51, 3 September 2017 (UTC)


 * While I will agree its Youtube's default method of sharing, we really have no reason to make an exception here, especially since it just adds one more way to link the videos which will certainly cause a disagreement over consistency in the future. If needed, you can always type video ID if the fewer characters are so important. – KnightMiner  · (t) 19:03, 3 September 2017 (UTC)

Replacing admins

 * And has not edited for three years. The BlobsPaper.png 21:54, 11 August 2017 (UTC)
 * The current activity of four administrators (Majr, Orthotope, Goandgoo and Dinoguy1000, although the latter went missing for 4 days except yesterday) doesn’t pose any problems. But, if a new admin is ever required, I would directly go for assigning KnightMiner as the most fitting user for this role.
 * And, for the sake of interest, I will say how Russian wiki has solved the problem of inactive admins in the last 3.5 years (if you’re not interested, skip this paragraph). In the last 2013, most of the Russian administration’s veteran members (led by HEKP0H) practically disappeared, leaving only one administrator with somewhat stable activity (that is AttemptToCallNil, then still known as GreenStone). Four admins experienced some periodic activity since then (SYSanin235, Shahter40, Bloodhit and Atributz, and also Norrius, a former admin who was resigned in 2013 by his own request); they all went inactive, with the exception of Atributz, who returned in early 2015 and, after some inactivity, in recent months. Ivan-r was appointed via his own request by Wynthyst in December 2013 (apparently when AttemptToCallNil went inactive for a short time), right now he is periodically active. AttemptToCallNil was later granted bureaucrat rights in July 2014. After Ivan-r, four new administrators were appointed by the new bureaucrat: Asassin 1 (January 2015), BloodCaster (January 2017, after a two-year hiatus; both on my suggestion) and, on last July, Dand0 and me. Last month AttemptToCallNil initiated an unusual procedure: he chose eight candidates (one was later discarded immediately as an unreliable one) for administrator status, and opened votes for them. The result was appointment of the two last administrators. And now, at <s title="Corrected by author on 14:41, 14 August 2017 (UTC)">four five continuously active and two partially active administrators, Russian administration is probably the largest on Minecraft Wiki.
 * Anyway, back to the English wiki. The wiki’s policy states that

"Administrative rights are given to users based on them making exceptional contributions to the wiki, rather than by request. An exception is on other languages of the Minecraft Wiki which have few or no admins, in which case a request is likely to be accepted."

- Minecraft Wiki:Directors


 * This point of view is far from being implemented practically. By this point of view, KnightMiner should be already appointed an administrator by Majr or Dinoguy1000 without any request, but he isn’t, and any request for appointing KnightMiner would be rejected based on this policy, even if he is a good candidate for this. Also, the last administrator was appointed on April 2014 (that was Goandgoo), which makes the current administration seem a little bit old, unlike the Russian wiki’s administration, which has four new members assigned since that period, with one in 2015 and, after two years, a record number of three in 2017.
 * In short: I’m neutral on this topic, but leaning towards appointing KnightMiner, and also changing the policy. —  BabylonAS</b> (talk | ru.Wiki Admin) (fka NickTheRed37) 14:51, 13 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Side note: I'm surprised how many inactive admins on the Russian wiki actually still have their rights. On the German wiki, an admin is asked to retire if they are inactive for a few months. (See here. The actual founders of the wiki still have their rights, and Oliver Scholz is still involved with the wiki although he doesn't edit regularily.) Also,

"and Dinoguy1000, although the latter went missing for 4 days except yesterday"

 * What's wrong with being away for four days? | violine1101(Talk) 15:22, 13 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Nothing is wrong. It is unusual to be active every day.
 * BabylonAS@undefined I would support giving administrative rights to . The BlobsPaper.png 16:33, 13 August 2017 (UTC)
 * I would hardly describe my inactivity as "going missing"; I can still be reached via my talk page here, email, or on Discord for those who want to look me up there. Other than that, I make no particular effort to maintain any particular level of activity here, both because generally I only edit when I notice something needs fixed or want to reply in a discussion, and because I have to fight with internet connectivity issues on my laptop that make wiki editing far more of a pain than it should be.
 * I've stated in the past that I have no problem with promoting users to admin by community request, in spite of the guidance on MCW:Directors, since that guidance is quite old (though of course, Gamepedia staff would have final say on whether that policy should still be enforced, and I'd abide by their decision in that case). Similarly I wouldn't be opposed to demoting inactive admins after a suitable period of time (I'd default to one year with no edits or log actions performed), assuming notice has been given to the editor and a week or so provided for them to view and respond if they wish. In both cases all that's required is to ping me to ensure I see the discussion.
 * Lastly, if is interested in the admin position, I'll promote him; I certainly have no objections to that recommendation myself. 「 ディノ 奴  千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 11:30, 14 August 2017 (UTC)

 * But, judging by Special:ActiveUsers, KnightMiner has only made 15 edits in 30 days (with only 5 edits in August). Other viable candidates, as I see, may be Sealbudsman or BDJP007301 (I personally lean to the former). LauraFi may be also a good candidate (and, if appointed, would be the first female administrator in a long time, if ever) but she only has made seven edits in this entire year (exempting a happy birthday message on [ my profile]), so I won’t push her candidature too much right now. —  BabylonAS</b> (talk | ru.Wiki Admin) (fka NickTheRed37) 14:54, 14 August 2017 (UTC)


 * Edit count is and should never be the only criterion. Also, why do we need more admins in the first place? | violine1101(Talk) 15:52, 14 August 2017 (UTC)


 * While I wouldn't decline admin, I don't think I would do much with it if it were given to me. My personal life has gotten much more busy lately. See my edit history, I've definitely had to slow way down. – Sealbudsman <span style="transform: rotate(-16deg); display: inline-block; top: -1px; position: relative;">talk/contr 17:34, 14 August 2017 (UTC)


 * I'm not entirely sure we need more administrators as well. Sure, we have several inactive admins, but that has been the case for awhile without the current ones being overwhelmed to my knowledge. I don't see the need of appointing admins simply to have more admins at this current time. Instead, I'd focus on if a user frequently makes contributions that would benefit from those rights.
 * On the topic of me being an administrator, while I would not be opposed to being appointed and I have had uses for the rights in the past, I am not sure how beneficial it would be at this moment. Most of what I'd do with the rights is technical stuff which is pretty well covered by Majr or Dinoguy already, both of whom are a bit more active than I am as well. – KnightMiner  · (t) 23:51, 15 August 2017 (UTC)

issues with responsive style at small sizes
Not sure what to call it - it's not the mobile style, but the normal looking style, scaled to mobile size. I noticed these issues on Firefox on mobile, but haven't checked other browsers.

Issue #1 -

The Gamepedia bar is half-overlapping the search bar. Makes the search bar finicky to use. It's been that way for a while, not specific to this MW upgrade.

Issue #2 -

The "Share" tab is raised up out of place. I don't necessarily care about that, it just looks funny.

Issue #3 -

The "Talk" tab often gets covered up by all the other tabs on the right. It appears that stuff is supposed to collapse into the "More" tab when the screen is small, but this isn't preventing Talk from getting hidden. That's also been happening for a long time.

Small edit war over Pocket Edition 1.1.6
There seems to be a minor edit war developing over whether there is a Pocket Edition 1.1.6 update. In an exchange I had with user, he reported that this update number was used in a special Store panel (picture) shown only to Chinese users. (The notice reportedly informs them that they will not receive the 1.2 or later updates in China.) This is apparently the notice mentioned in the August 17 Content Update changelog, which carries no update version number. I'm told the 1.1.6 version number does not appear on the main menu in China and there doesn't seem to be any evidence of it in the usual authoritative sources. Certain users have attempted to create a page for 1.1.6 and link it into the version chain, while other users have attempted to undo the link and mark the page for deletion. As a result, these pages are pingponging without discussion toward reaching a consensus.

The main problem is the August 17 Content Update changelog. It has no version number because it only updates Marketplace items; there was no change to the game. Someone said this was made possible by the 1.1.5 update making the Marketplace content purely data-driven, specifically so that new Marketplace offerings could be released between game updates. We haven't seen a purely content update before and therefore have no consensus on how—or even whether—to document it in the wiki. I think it's likely these updates will happen very frequently, so documenting them would be a burdensome task. Not only that, it would be uncomfortably close to advertising since these are content products being sold by third parties. I believe it would be helpful for the admins to weigh in on this question, and that it would put an end to the budding edit war. --– Auldrick (talk &middot; contribs) 09:03, 20 August 2017 (UTC)

Link to profanity and obscenity
In this edit, added a link to a Hastebin copy of the file Minecraft (Bedrock) 1.2 uses to censor words in chat. I felt it was inappropriate (sensitive kids might follow the link, vandals might cite it as a license to make similar links), unnecessary (since when do we link to updated program files from our history pages?), and a possible a violation of Gamepedia's TOS (indirectly adding profanity and obscenity, linking to material that violates copyright). When I removed it, Oldosfan reverted it with the edit summary "If something is a gray area, it stays up until told to go down *by the admins*". I don't think there's any such rule, and wp:Be Bold authorizes what I did. Am I wrong? And secondly, should the link should stay? --– Auldrick (talk &middot; contribs) 14:11, 26 September 2017 (UTC)


 * If something "is a gray area", there needs to be a damn good argument for including it in an article, and it being a "gray area" that "the admins" haven't struck down isn't such an argument. Or to put it more simply: if your only argument for including something in an article is that it isn't explicitly against the rules, you have no argument. 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 16:02, 26 September 2017 (UTC)

Education Edition: remove unjustified protection
That page, which has had many beneficial IP edits in the past, was recently the site of a small edit war. The result? An infinite semi-protection under the reason "Excessive vandalism". Admins, I request that you please remove the protection and stop abusing your powers. A mishap with just one user does not warrant that kind of protection.

 * That seems a bit reactive; perhaps the admins are being overprotective, but I would hardly call that an abuse of power. It's a semi-protection, it's not like the admins banned someone because they thought they had a stupid username.

"User page" navigation button redirects to the "Profile" page while NOT viewing UserProfile namespace
When you're on your own User talk page or the User page itself, the left navigation button for "User page" redirects you to your "Profile" page. I expect that the User namespace is set to automatically redirect to the UserProfile one, which I understand, but the navigation buttons should not redirect because the profile already has its own navigation button and it would be misleading. The "Profile" button currently targets  which is correct. The "User page" button should be changed to target, instead of   as it is being redirected to a different page than it claims. This only applies while you're not viewing the UserProfile namespace itself however. Because the "User page" button will only correctly lead to the actual user page, when viewed from the page it is redirecting to. It's not really much of an issue, but it is a bit misleading and I guess it requires an administrator level to fix. What do you guys think about this? Jack McKalling (talk) 13:39, 11 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Change "Page Type" under "Public Profile" in your Preferences. --Pepijn (talk) 14:03, 11 October 2017 (UTC)
 * That does workaround the misleading buttons, thanks. But it requires using a different preference setting. Is it not possible to address the issue (admins), or am I nitpicking with this? Jack McKalling (talk) 14:16, 11 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Either your default user page is a user profile or user wiki; it does not vary depending on how you get there, unless you manually put  or   in a link. However, the links in the sidebar cannot be edited. The BlobsPaper.png 14:24, 11 October 2017 (UTC)
 * I don't know if you understood my problem or not, but it's not true what you're stating, Blobs. It does vary, as that's exactly the issue, or are you trying to say that you cannot reproduce it? The links in the sidebar have nothing to do with the navigation buttons as far as I'm aware. The default user page can indeed be either my profile or wiki page, but that was already said/implied. As a resolve I've already set my user page as the default one over my profile, so this is not an issue anymore for me in this setting, but I'm still wondering whether the issue will still be considered under the other one.

Update Steve, Alex and Herobrine
There are new versions available for File:Alex.png, File:Steve.png and File:Herobrine.png. As the latter two are both protected I request one of the admins to perform the upload. I won't change Alex until Steve is updated, otherwise the animation on The Player would get even worse. Files can be found on the German wiki: de:Datei:Alex.png, de:Datei:Steve.png and de:Datei:Herobrine.png. Both Alex and Steve need an update as Steve is currently a bit larger wich makes the animation on The Player quite shaky. Herobrine on the other hand features a larger error, the goatee doesn't belong to the skin as can be proven by obtains his skull via /give @p skull 1 3 {SkullOwner:MHF_Herobrine}. – Fusseel 19:31, 16 October 2017 (UTC)

 * Ah, how I miss editing this wiki sometimes. It's been a long time.
 * In one of my fly-by checks on the Herobrine page, of which I still feel quite proud of facilitating and check every few months or so, I saw this change. I do not understand why this "MHF_Herobrine" user is being considered canon for Herobrine appearances. all appearances during the stream, the creepypasta and Mojang adoptions feature the beard. I argue the beard is the canon skin, not "MHF_Herobrine"'s version of the skin. Therefore, I have reverted the skin.
 * If this "MHF_Herobrine" is really important, I would suggest adding a section about the alternate skin, creating a "skin swatcher" of sorta a-la Here, or making it an animated gif. But canonically, Herobrine does have a beard, and always has.
 * I'll go back to trying to sort out this twitch account merge thing now. That's the main reason I've come back for just a short while.
 * Edit: I have since been made aware that MHF is an official Mojang skin pool of sorts. While I now better understand the change and reasoning for it, it should be noted that Mojang are not the creators of the Herobrine hoax and all origin skins show the beard, as well as legacy promo material.
 * I continue to affirm that the legacy skin is canon, and further believe that the Mojang team don't really have a right to change the canon of Herobrine's appearance canonically, especially due to the repeated denouncing of any future plans to add him in-game. But it most certainly would be relevant for a trivia or smaller section on the page, with the newer skin included as an image.--<font color="blue" style="text-shadow: 0px 0px 8px #00FF00;"><font color="Black">Kizzycocoa 01:44, 29 November 2017 (UTC)

 * Now that the user is blocked for a month, I went through some of their contributions, and I have a lot of doubts about their content. Should some of their work be reverted/changed back? Some stuff has gone down in their respective page's history already, and I'm not sure what edit is or isn't acceptable. For instance, their [//minecraft.gamepedia.com/index.php?title=Creeper&diff=prev&oldid=1162213 Creeper edit] which is its latest, seems to hide the fact they removed information (the XP drop) by re-arranging the drops into a bulleted list. I kindof want to revert it, but he did the same bulleted list to the blaze page (not removing XP drops that time) but [//minecraft.gamepedia.com/index.php?title=Blaze&diff=1158158&oldid=1157198 that edit] was a month ago already. I notice some aggressive mob pages have a bulleted list and some don't, but on these two pages I feel it isn't needed.

 * I don't like inconsistency either. I think it could work to allow a piece of content to become bulleted if; A) the items can be systematically summarized if that makes it easier to read, B) the unbulleted paragraph of text would otherwise become too much information all over the place, C) there are enough items to make a reasonable list of over 3 items, and D) there are not too many items and bits of information in each that would be better placed in a table. As my own rule of thumb for such a thing. Because lists are not always the best solution on a wiki, we don't want everything in lists, but for some occasions it may be unavoidable.


 * ... But regarding this user, one of such edits that I have doubts on, is the [//minecraft.gamepedia.com/index.php?title=Spider&diff=prev&oldid=1162197 latest Spider] one. Where did they get those chance numbers from for instance? Or what about the move of the Village structures pages, were those good moves? Do you need my help with any verification or anything else? Or is everything OK for now and move on? – Jack McKalling (t • c • p) 14:03, 7 November 2017 (UTC)


 * The chances were already on the page before the edit, the user just rearranged the information that was already there. The redirect change was also fine, before it was a double redirect and that should always be prevented. --Pepijn (talk) 14:11, 7 November 2017 (UTC)

Permissions problem on the profile since PRO activated
I was just messing about with my Echo badges in my stylesheet, then I changed the setting to "Show talk page message indicator in my toolbar" (unchecked it) and hit save preferences, and suddenly I became a PRO user according to my profile page (and my signature here while previewing). Then I could not use the comment system anymore on the profile pages, not even on my own, as it now warns me I have no permissions for that (anymore!). I tried reconfirming my email address as suggested, but that didn't change anything. I also now get a supposed warning message when I try to change that setting from before, and although it does save, the warning says I cannot edit this profile without email verification. I don't even know what this setting does, hence why I tried it in the first place. Also, I checked my gamepedia account page, and it does state I have an active PRO status, which expires 2/7/2018. I don't have exactly 1k wikipoints yet, so I can't think of any reason why this automatically would have happened. When/how do you get PRO status, and is that status possibly the reason why I "lost" my commenting permission? – Jack McKalling (t • c • p) 23:59, 7 November 2017 (UTC)
 * It's a known issue about comments not currently working properly, and should be fixed sometime in the next day or so. It's entirely unrelated to Gamepedia Pro status being given. DSquirrelGM &#120035;&#120031;&#120018; 06:27, 8 November 2017 (UTC)


 * Ok, thanks. But, then there are multiple problems. All my emails broke at the same time, apparently. I do not get any email from the watchlist for instance, because it is complaining about that confirmation thingy. In my profile preferences, on the profile itself, and possibly in more places. When I visit the confirmation special page from the link in those warnings, it says . But I already clicked the link from the referred-to email. So why is my account complaining about my email address confirmation, and is the confirmation not working? This makes it very hard for me to keep track of everything as I don't get notified anymore. – Jack McKalling (t • c • p) 09:15, 8 November 2017 (UTC)


 * All seems to work fine now, glad it's fixed, thanks :) Still don't know how or why I got that PRO status though, I didn't buy anything. – Jack McKalling (t • c • p) 16:10, 9 November 2017 (UTC)

Subscribing to a category for all its (future) pages?
Would it be possible to allow users to watch category membership changes? Like "subscribing" to a category and getting notified about any page that gets added or removed from that category? I searched the mediawiki wiki, and it appears there is such a function, documented at Manual:CategoryMembershipChanges. But it says it is turned off by default. I really like that feature, but it could only be turned on by an admin. With it, I wouldn't need to manually look out for new snapshot pages that I'd like to add to my watchlist for instance, it would simply notify me of any new ones. Pretty please? ^_^ – Jack McKalling (t • c • p) 10:27, 9 November 2017 (UTC)

Communityportal messed up navigation (mediawiki related, not edit history)
For some reason the wiki page of the community portal has messed up the mediawiki navigation elements. The div#mw-navigation is suddenly inside the div#content, where normally it should be its sibling. The navigation appears in the same place as the page content, making it invisible to read and overlapping stuff that it shouldn't. It's got nothing to do with the page's edit history, as its last edit did not have this problem before and currently viewing a previous revision does not have any effect. Also, an edit could not have caused an HTML element to have moved into one of its siblings like this. This problem happened after the move to the new host. – Jack McKalling (t • c • p) 08:42, 15 November 2017 (UTC)

About an anonymous user
An anonymous user with various private IPs, such as and, is creating useless (or probably vandal, which violates the wiki rule #2]) edits. Looking at [//ipinfo.io/172.31.33.176] and [//ipinfo.io/172.31.20.208], it seems that this user is an anonymous user from Curse (where this server is hosted). So what must we do? <font face="'Open Sans',sans-serif">– Dentedharp90041tce 11:49, 18 November 2017 (UTC)


 * I'd say just ban them both. If someone is violating the rules, they have no business here. They are also inserting nonsense so it's not only 2 but also against rule 4.

Anon invasion of the Russian Minecraft Wiki
The anonymous vandals and spammers are plaguing the Russian Minecraft Wiki. Our project perhaps never has seen consecutive blocks of so many IP address ranges. At least three types of malicious actions are being done: advertisements, actions related to the recently blocked user Rusy233 ms, and actions related to the long-ago blocked user EnderMamix. Some IP addresses say that these users don’t have anything to do with the spammers and their accounts were hacked, but it is impossible to track every IP address and confirm these words. Vandals are using a multitude of VPNs and possibly other anonymizing utilities to evade blocks. I even had to engineer a new abuse filter to fight against a specific type of vandalism (it was later patched by AttemptToCallNil). This is terrible.

I request Curse administration (Game widow) and GRASP (Pcj, xbony2) to help our project in taking care of these mysterious bad guys. But beware: after my message they might target you too! —  <b style="line-height: 19px; letter-spacing: 1px">BabylonAS</b> (talk | ru.Wiki Admin) (fka NickTheRed37) 14:24, 26 November 2017 (UTC)

This is terrible. The vandal adapts to any upgrades of the abuse filter (it already includes some obscene words of Russian language, de facto enforcing one of the rules’ points), pushing his edits out of any filter’s pattern range. AttemptToCallNil suggested on the Russian wiki’s Discord channel to block all open proxies based on information from Wikipedia with the aid of Curse or an admin bot. The problem is will Curse allow such a radical action or not, but the Replicators (as we call the vandal IP addresses in Discord after Stargate creatures) are already a nagging issue interfering with our project’s normal life. —  <b style="line-height: 19px; letter-spacing: 1px">BabylonAS</b> (talk | ru.Wiki Admin) (fka NickTheRed37) 15:28, 2 December 2017 (UTC)

As of now, the Replicators are mostly dormant. Some evidences suggest that Rusy233 ms is actually behind this mess, and a indefinite block has been proposed for him in Discord. Also, I have coded a program that allows to consequently block IP addresses en masse, which would allow solving the issue of open proxies. —  <b style="line-height: 19px; letter-spacing: 1px">BabylonAS</b> (talk | ru.Wiki Admin) (fka NickTheRed37) 13:46, 15 December 2017 (UTC)

 * Sorry, but it was not me. Please, so that this does not happen again. Rusy233 ms (talk) 17:30, 15 December 2017 (UTC)
 * What's up with this drama? I translated Rusy's talk page from the Russian wiki and the best that I can understand is that their account has caused much vandalism, which Rusy has said is because hackers got into the account. But that's generally odd since no one else has ever had a problem with that since MediaWiki is pretty secure. I'd assume Rusy would have tried changing their password to something not used on any other account. -Xbony2 (GRASP) (FTB Wiki Admin) (talk) 22:31, 15 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Evidence against that user:
 * Multiple accounts of vandalism, provocations, and other disruptive activity (such as changing names of game concepts to variants only he uses; repeating the same baseless statements like "this name is not natural" in discussions)
 * Inquiring about anti-vandalism abuse filters during the vandal invasion in a manner which suggests he has triggered those filters, but no legitimate edits were affected by the filters;
 * Using the same misspelling of vandalism ("vandalizme") as the vandal;
 * Inquiring about Tor being blocked just after the extension was installed, the most likely way to find that out was to attempt to edit via Tor (and there was no legitimate reason to do that, his primary IPs were not blocked)
 * Then there's this: ru:Special:Diff/645051. Rough translation: "I found out something unexpected: even if substantial security measures are applied, the account will still be hacked because the hackers are using bots to instantly hack accounts regardless of their security measures." Some administrators believe this is convincing evidence of that his "hacking" claims are trolling.

If you can't deal with this problem I don't see what anyone can do but block you. The homophobia (which I have a natural bias against since I am bi) and seemingly personal attacks (it looks like Babylon and AttemptToCallNil are being targeted in particular) really aren't helping your case I may note. -Xbony2 (GRASP) (FTB Wiki Admin) (talk) 19:07, 16 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Is there any kind of CheckUser process on Gamepedia? Because at least two Russian wiki administrators suspect that User:Vandalizme is a sockpuppet of User:Rusy233 ms, and that this user may be the vandal who attacked the Russian wiki in late November / early December. --AttemptToCallNil (report bug, view backtrace) 06:35, 17 December 2017 (UTC)
 * It's pretty much just asking Gamepedia staff. You should be on the Gamepedia Slack btw, which is the best way to quickly talk to the staff.

Slack is being used over Discord mostly just because there's ~650 users on Slack and migrated them all would be difficult at this point. Also, the way they have it set up, the channels would be difficult to do on Discord. There's a hundred or so of them and the way Discord is, they'd all have to public, making it hard to navigate, or be private, making staff have to make a role for each channel in order to access it which would be complicated. -Xbony2 (GRASP) (FTB Wiki Admin) (talk) 20:40, 17 December 2017 (UTC)

A new abuse filter (ID 24) has been created specifically against the Replicators on the Russian wiki (the previous filter was revisioned as a general vandalism filter). But, the actions there are way smaller than on this wiki right now. I think that creating new abuse filters here should significantly help, as with the Russian section. And, of course, don’t forget to include “Rusy233 ms”, “Vandalizme” and “Alisa Selezneva” phrases into the filter should one be created here. I would like to personally supervise its creation (so it becomes compatible with the Russian filter) but I don’t have enough permissions, and I won’t have them even if I would be accepted into GRASP. —  <b style="line-height: 19px; letter-spacing: 1px">BabylonAS</b> (talk | ru.Wiki Admin) (fka NickTheRed37) 14:11, 23 December 2017 (UTC)


 * Rusy233 ms and EnderMamix were previously temporarily unblocked as part of an experiment. But it didn’t produce any productive results, and they were reblocked again.

File File:Biocraft124.png doesn't work anymore (fixed)
For a different reason as the file from previous section, this file is broken too. It cannot be viewed on its own page or even its history, but the only page it is linked from (Texture_pack/Native) does render the image itself correctly, see "Biocraft" in the top table. I'm getting an internal error on the file page and history,, which makes me completely unable to check what's going on. The error seems to imply that the database cannot select it or something, possibly due to invalid characters somewhere but not sure. I have no access to the source code so I can't check myself what the error is exactly referring to. – [ <span class="gamepedia_pro_user">Jack McKalling ] 22:39, 14 December 2017 (UTC)


 * I attempted to ask about this in the #general channel on the Gamepedia Slack. Pcj, the WOWpedia wiki manager and a GRASP member, replied that we need to create a ticket and emphasized bringing it to the attention of our wiki manager, who I believe is . Apparently, the problem was caused when a user with a wonky user name updated it in 2012. – Auldrick (talk &middot; contribs) 17:11, 17 December 2017 (UTC)

 * Actually, I'd never heard of either one, wiki guardian or manager. Where was I, an ordinary editor, meant to hear of them? No, I was going by what people had in their Slack profiles, and I misread Dinoguy's; I read "wiki manager" where it says "wiki admin". But I gotta say, getting help from Gamepedia or Curse is like making a black market deal.

Template:FileUrl is expecting the wrong result from { {filepath:}} (solved)
This template expects the string returned from { {filepath:}} to be a URL that starts with:


 * (example). But instead, the filepath returns this:


 * (equivalent example).

Which is shorter, and consequently causes the template's string logic to strip the  part out of the URL, as a net result after it processed Widget:FileUrl. This incapacitates Template:FrontPageLink visibly on both its own page as well as on the transcluding main page. You can see the effect because the image from above examples is not visible on those pages. Inspecting the page shows the evidence of the stripped URL:


 * . Notice the double slash before the file basename.

I don't know why { {filepath:}} gives this external URL, and I don't know why both URLs function correctly. Maybe one of them is intended to redirect to the other. But before looking into fixing the logic of the template, does anyone know exactly where the fault lies? I suspect one of the URLs might be outdated. – [ <span class="gamepedia_pro_user">Jack McKalling ] 20:32, 19 December 2017 (UTC)


 * In this case, it doesn't really matter what's going on with the URLs; since the template was using the wrong URL in its logic, it would always return the wrong value, unless that URL just happened to match the length of the correct URL. I've changed the URL to a more automatic method that should resist future changes in Gamepedia's file hosting method, unless they change or do away with the  part of the file path. 「 ディノ 奴  千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 10:03, 20 December 2017 (UTC)


 * To me the URL did matter, as I couldn't tell which was the wrong one. But I guess you indeed don't have to know if you compare the same URL with itself like you did. This is exactly the kind of dynamic fix I was hoping for.

 * For some reason, the updated template does not work on the Russian wiki if the size parameter is provided or if the file name contains non-Latin characters, test cases here.

 * It's because Widget:FileUrl still had a hardcoded URL. I've removed it, which also allowed removing the whole stripping portion of the logic from FileUrl; there's no reason I'm aware of not to just use the URL returned by  directly (well, the   does have to be stripped and then re-added in the widget, since otherwise the colon gets escaped as   which breaks the value at least in Chrome, but it's still a far simpler and more robust solution than the previous version). Try updating ru:Template:FileUrl and ru:Widget:FileUrl and see if the examples on the page work. 「 ディノ 奴  千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 11:25, 20 December 2017 (UTC)

 * Try updating the template and widget again.

 * Guess it works now. – Dentedharp90041tce 11:23, 20 December 2017 (UTC)


 * So as it turns out, one component of the security concerns was with allowing arbitrarily-hosted files to be linked to. We can still use the auto-detection for the details of the upload URL in the template, but it will have to be hardcoded in the widget, at least for the foreseeable future. As for the Unicode filename problem this reintroduced, I just didn't look closely enough at the actual URLs being served in the CSS; as it turns out, they were being double-encoded: first by, and then a second time by  , which escaped the percent signs to  . The solution, then, is  , which reverses the first round of escaping. 「 ディノ 奴  千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 12:09, 21 December 2017 (UTC)

Archive time
This page is getting pretty big. – Nixinova   02:06, 17 December 2017 (UTC)


 * The last archive was made almost six months ago in July 2017, and since then, 94 (now 95) sections have accumulated on this noticeboard. Taking a look at all the archives, this is the most amount of sections the Admin noticeboard has held, with the next five archives with the most number of sections are archive 24 at 72 sections, archive 21 at 66 sections, archive 19 at 59 sections, and archive 9 and 10, both at 54 sections. I think we are past due for an archival of the Admin noticeboard, since many the old sections above have already been resolved and hence no longer need to be on this page. 130.126.255.11 11:31, 20 December 2017 (UTC)


 * I agree, but the sections that haven't been solved yet (which are solved?) should be isolated first. – [ <span class="gamepedia_pro_user">Jack McKalling ] [ Grid Book.png Grid Book and Quill.png Grid Diamond Pickaxe.png ] 12:34, 20 December 2017 (UTC)


 * I'm wondering whether any of our bot operators would be interested in running an archival bot, preferably one that's able to archive any talk page that's opted in to auto-archival, like the system used for Wikipedia. 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 15:16, 20 December 2017 (UTC)


 * That would be possible. In my case, Pywikibot even has its own archival script. As for the archival itself, how should we archive at all? Copy and paste old topics into a brand new page, remove them from the current page afterwards, or move the page itself and then move current topics back into the original place? The first method is simpler, whereas the second allows to keep the flow of history intact. —  <b style="line-height: 19px; letter-spacing: 1px">BabylonAS</b> (talk | ru.Wiki Admin) (fka NickTheRed37) 15:39, 21 December 2017 (UTC)


 * I was wondering myself as well. I haven't been around enough to know how pages are archived, but the latter sounds better to me. Preserving history is good. But the active discussions, yes I see them as a problem for the process, like I said, I don't know how it's usually done. – [ <span class="gamepedia_pro_user">Jack McKalling ] [ Grid Book.png Grid Book and Quill.png Grid Diamond Pickaxe.png ] 16:08, 21 December 2017 (UTC)


 * Copying is preferable to moving. It's far simpler for a bot (or an editor) to manually select and copy old topics to an archive than it is to move the whole page and have to copy individual, active topics back, and that breaks the premise of keeping history with the associated topics anyways, since unless you're an admin and feel like polluting the delete log, there is no way to split a page's history in order to keep the history of a particular discussion all together (and even if you are an admin and don't mind polluting the delete log to do that, in the process you'll also add to individual diffs: each diff is associated with a full page text, and when you split between diffs like that, then any intervening changes still have to be represented in the resulting, split history, which means suddenly diffs will have extra changes associated with them). All things considered, it's far preferable to keep all relevant history on the main talk page (needless to say, I've never liked the habit on this wiki of moving talk pages to archive them, mostly for these reasons).
 * The real solution, of course, would be to have a forum-style talk page solution, but the Wikimedia Foundation (the organization responsible for developing MediaWiki, the software which runs this wiki) has been working on that for a decade or more with LiquidThreads and more recently Flow, and they still don't have much to show for it. 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 19:59, 21 December 2017 (UTC)


 * Wow, a lot of that I couldn't follow I'm sorry. But I think your main point is that when a page is archived but still has active discussions, either the active or inactive ones are going to break history. I get that much and it's sad. Then what about this idea. Instead of archiving the whole page, have individual sections semi-archive themselves by keeping them hidden on page, by collapsing the text. I imagine it would work like adding  between the === symbols and the title of the section's header, and it would automatically collapse the section's text and convert the header into a toggle link. It would be nice if that'd also automatically reposition the section into a collection box on the page, similar to how reflist works. I wonder how all that would look/work. – [ <span class="gamepedia_pro_user">Jack McKalling ] [ Grid Book.png Grid Book and Quill.png Grid Diamond Pickaxe.png ] 20:50, 21 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Something like wikipedia:Template:Hidden archive top with its bottom variant, although that would not solve the page getting too long to load. – [ <span class="gamepedia_pro_user">Jack McKalling ] [ Grid Book.png Grid Book and Quill.png Grid Diamond Pickaxe.png ] 22:12, 21 December 2017 (UTC)


 * That doesn't actually solve any issues: the content is still on the page, and still has to be loaded every time the page is viewed, or every time someone needs to edit the entire page instead of just a section, for whatever reason. And if the idea is to hide concluded discussions until all the current discussions on a page have been concluded and the page can be "safely" renamed, then that won't work for pages like this one or the community portal where discussion can be expected to happen continuously. No matter how you look at it, the simplest, sanest solution is to just archive individual sections as they become inactive.
 * Don't worry too much that you couldn't follow my comment; I did a terrible job at explaining myself. =) The main takeaway should be that the history issues are a red herring and generally shouldn't dictate how archival is done. 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 13:32, 22 December 2017 (UTC)
