Minecraft Wiki talk:Issues/1.4.5

To all of you dedicated bug reporters who came to this page, I salute you. You've helped us squash countless bugs for so long, and for this we are very grateful. You've each helped Minecraft become what it is now, to polish the little things and make sure the big things do what they're supposed to, and this is something you should be proud of. It was a pleasure working with you all, and I hope to see you active on the new tracker :) — Dinnerbone(T) 17:10, 25 October 2012 (UTC)
 * I'm aware of the tracker, and am trying to get a hold of Quatroking in IRC, but he is not online/has not been online.
 * Once I do, we're going to discuss what to do. I suspect some wiki-enthusiasts will wish to continue the bug listing for archive purposes, so I'm thinking, a big header to redirect users to the tracker. but I think it best if more than one admin had a say in this. --Kizzycocoa 18:10, 25 October 2012 (UTC)
 * I wasn't really a bug reporter, but I've become a pretty active contributor. Even though I had little direct contribution to bug reports, I feel I have also helped Minecraft in a sense. I'll make sure to do my part in the new tracker if I find anything that isn't reported already. Thanks for all of your work, Dinnerbone!  19:09, 25 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Per Kizzycocoa's comment, since the Bug Reporter is the official means to report bugs and there's a very clear notice to that effect at the top of the Issues page, I don't see the harm in continuing "Issues" as an unofficial resource.
 * After looking through the bug reporter, it was easier to check if someone else had the same issue here as you could either skim the page in the appropriate category while scrolling or  to search for keywords. In the bug reporter, though you can skim though the summaries, they are not sorted into categories which will become increasingly difficult to check for specific issues as the list grows (it's already a full page long only one day after the release). When you do a keyword search you are given a list of summaries containing the keyword, but checking each one individually is not efficient as scrolling through a section, and clicking the back button on your browser to return to the search list requires you to approve the search order confirmation each time. -- KADC - &#34;Be unreasonable.&#34; 00:04, 26 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Just thinking out loud, it seems we could produce links that jump direct to particular sets of filtered issues, and which are viewable even if you're not logged in. For example, [https://mojang.atlassian.net/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa?reset=true&jqlQuery=labels+%3D+village] will jump to all bugs tags with the 'village' label. If we create a set of these links that roughly correspond to the old tracker categories, we can use the wiki as a sort of 'bug overview' index. Dunno if people think that would be a good idea. Maybe we could also set up bug report templates pre-populated with a reasonable set of standard labels...? You wouldn't have to use them if you didn't want to, but where a standard label fits you could use it without needing to second-guess what phrasing you should use. --Simons Mith[82.69.54.207] 00:38, 26 October 2012 (UTC)
