Snapshot bug fixes sections
Hello,

I'm Aaron, I've been doing the work on the bug fix sections these past handful of months. I've seen you working on the fixes lately, and I like it, it's good to know it's getting done. I only haven't been keeping up because my little netbook died and I am between machines right now.

I generally try to do a good job and make sure the bugfixes go to the snapshot page that represents actually where the bug was fixed, rather than where the tracker says it was fixed -- and I noticed you doing that as well. I know the tracker software doesn't let the mods mark them fixed in the right version oftentimes, and frankly it would be a huge job for them in addition to what they already have to do, so I don't blame them.

So I just wanted to let you know, I was not able to test the bugs in 14w30a, 30b, 30c or 31a, I just put them there with the intention of sorting them out later. Feel free to tackle that if you are so inclined. If not, I'll get to it, but in either case thanks.

Any questions, lemme know.

Removal of Fixes
May I ask why you removed Fixes from 14w32d? The main point of the template removes the problem of several mistakes that are commonly made, (forgetting to update number, forgetting to sort by number), and it automatically makes the better version of the tracker link. It is also not at all complicated to use. --KnightMiner  (t 02:29, 9 August 2014 (UTC)

IK about that. The reason why I removed it was because it was basically too confusing for me. You see, I'm basically just not used to sudden change. --BDJP007301 (t 04:31, 9 August 2014 (UTC)


 * The main reason I was switching it over was because it would likely be used on all version pages at a later time, and it was easier to only need one system between 1.8 and it's snapshots. Also, I figured if I added it to the latest snapshot, it would get used when the next one got made. --KnightMiner  (t 21:54, 9 August 2014 (UTC)

Issues for 1.4
Hi there, if you have time or are interested, would you be able to link up the bugs from 1.4 (versions + snapshots) to the bug tracker, and sort them? At the moment most of those pages don't have links to the bug tracker, and seem fairly incomplete. Thanks –Goandgoo ᐸ Talk Contribs Edits 12:52, 12 August 2014 (UTC)

Will do. --BDJP007301 (t 13:15, 12 August 2014 (UTC)


 * Hello, I noticed that you put the bugs on the 1.4.3-pre and 1.4.2-pre pages, and I was wondering how you knew that those bugs were fixed in those versions. – Sealbudsman (Aaron) SealbudsmanFace.png (t|c) – 15:05, 12 August 2014 (UTC)

I ordered the bugs by how they were created and sorted them from the beginning to end. Afterward, I clicked on the fix version (in this case, 1.4.2 / 1.4.3), and found yet even more bugs that were fixed in those versions. I was able to sort them out by affected versions, creation, etc on the pages. --BDJP007301 (t BDJP007301 16:21, 12 August 2014 (UTC)


 * Once you have finished linking to the bug tracker, 1.5 also needs to be sorted. –Goandgoo ᐸ Talk Contribs Edits 21:16, 12 August 2014 (UTC)


 * Just started working on it tonight, and I'll continue tomorrow! :) --BDJP007301 (t BDJP007301 01:52, 13 August 2014 (UTC)


 * Hi again, here is a list of all the versions without a sorted fixes section/possibly incomplete: 1.7.1-pre, 13w11a, 13w12~, 1.5.1-pre, 1.6-pre, 1.6.3-pre, 1.6.2-pre, 1.4.4-pre, 1.4.5-pre, 13w25c, 1.6.1-pre. Thanks for your help in fixing up these sections :) –Goandgoo ᐸ Talk Contribs Edits 13:31, 14 August 2014 (UTC)


 * Will do. Always a pleasure to help. --BDJP007301 (t BDJP007301 13:42, 14 August 2014 (UTC)

Bugs reopened in the bug tracker
Good morning, a few things:

Tip; when you remove bugs because they are 'reopened', be sure to also search the wiki for all instances of the bug (usually searching by the bug id number is enough), because it could be listed in several places; like the bug you just removed from 1.7.10 was also listed on the snapshot page. I've been doing that so far for your reopens, so no worries to this point.

Also when you put things on (for instance) 1.8 snapshots, and they are listed as affecting 1.7.x or lower, you can also go ahead and list them on the 1.8 page as well, cause basically for a player that's not playing the snapshots, they are bugs that a player would see fixed when he jumps from 1.7.10 to 1.8. I've been doing that so far for bugs you put on snapshot pages, so again, no worries so far, but I thought I would mention it, it's a simple thing I think.

Also I noticed you were keeping track of bugs 'reopened' and I thought to myself, is BDJP doing it in a more efficient way than I am? Because my way of keeping track of reopened bugs is actually kind of hectic and time-consuming in my opinion, as opposed to my way of keeping track of newly-closed bugs, and I would love to know if you have a better way.

Cheers,
