Talk:Tutorials/Mining/Fossils

New Nether Fossils?
1.16 introduces the Nether fossils in the soul sand valleys. They are technically a different structure, but I still believe that they should be described here. I added a "Needs update" template to show this, however my edit has been reverted and it seems like some people think Nether fossils deserve a separate tutorial. I believe that we need to discuss this a bit.

Reasons for merging the tutorials:
 * Tutorials for both of these would be quite small and I'm not sure that splitting them into different articles is worth it.
 * Ultimately, people will visit this page just because they want to harvest bone blocks, and they probably won't care about which biome they come from.
 * Most tutorials are split into many sections, where each one describes its own method of doing X, and I believe that desert fossils and nether fossils could also be just different sections.

Tutorials/Diamonds does something similar, where they describe not just mining techniques but also things like villager trading.

Reasons against merging: --gardenapple (talk) 15:20, 17 February 2020 (UTC)
 * I imagine that there won't be too much overlap between these two tutorials.
