WindWend's Suggestions
Windwend (talk) 23:03, 3 November 2020 (UTC)
 * ... that there is no music played in the Warped Forest biome?
 * ... that hoglins are afraid of nether portals?
 * ... that Bedrock Edition is written in the programming language C++?
 * ... that walking and sneaking do not increase the food exhaustion level?
 * ... that climbing up scaffolding costs the same exhaustion level as jumping up every block?
 * ... that when saturation is not at zero, health regenerates much faster in Java than in Bedrock Edition?
 * ... that the normal jump height of the player is 1.25 blocks, instead of 1?
 * ... that villagers made no sounds until Java Edition 1.6.1, almost two years after their introduction?
 * ... that cakes were added as a response to Minecraft winning the 2010 Indie of the Year Awards?
 * ... that the original iron sword texture was taken from Notch's abandoned game Legend of the Chambered?
 * ... that the Nether's original biome name was "Hell"?
 * ... that bastion remnants cannot generate in the Basalt Deltas biome?
 * ... that despite the size of the ghast, it can be trapped in a minecart?
 * ... that before Java Edition Beta 1.9 Prerelease 4, the sun and the moon rise in the north and set in the south?
 * ... that villagers can sleep in beds in the Nether and the End, according to the daylight cycle in the Overworld?
 * (Please change the line about nether stars. They despawn after 10 minutes on Java, but never despawn on Bedrock.)
 * (Also the last line cannot be seen in the template. It reads "rabbits can also be bred with dandelions instead of carrots".)


 * These are all great! I've added these to the editcopy. Also, red text in the module is just syntax highlighting. – Unavailablehoax (talk) 22:58, 3 November 2020 (UTC)


 * I just noticed that what you've added to the editcopy page is not added to the facts page. Does it mean I can add what I've suggested in this talk page directly into the module, despite I'm not an admin? And I suppose the admins will later verify the editcopy page and decide if they want to add it to the facts page? Windwend (talk) 23:21, 3 November 2020 (UTC)


 * Yes, that is exactly what a editcopy page is for. – Unavailablehoax (talk) 23:36, 3 November 2020 (UTC)

Few more ideas

 * "... that the player will automatically stop sprinting after 30 seconds?"
 * "... that there are sometimes secret rooms in woodland mansions?"
 * "... that the rarest naturally generated block is the End Portal, with 0.0000001152 blocks per world in Java Edition?"
 * "... that cookies don't have any sugar?"
 * "... that cookies used to tame [[parrots], but was changed because chocolate kills them?"
 * "... that baby pandas have a 0.1% chance to drop a slime ball when they sneeze?"

Not sure if these are any good, but as someone who stares at wiki whenever bored, I find the current list gets boring fast. I did the calculation for End Portal (block), with the one in a trillion chance times 128(number of strongholds), times 9(number of portal blocks). BloonsDooms (talk) 20:21, 30 March 2021 (UTC)


 * These are all great suggestions! You can just go ahead and put them in the editcopy, which you can edit yourself. The admins will periodically check the editcopy to see if they can be added to the official list. This time, I will help you put them in. Some of the statements are slightly changed though, to make them more accurate. Windwend (talk) 20:25, 30 March 2021 (UTC)

Yes, it tooks me one hour to find these, last 14 facts were found in my .txt file contains game facts. Also the fact "...every logs can be used to be an input and output inside a furnace?" is a rejected fact I made for testing, I readded it back in case that wasn't detailed. Anyways hope these facts were accepted because I spend an hour to do this. TheLogicalMine (talk) 01:26, 9 April 2021 (UTC)

Sorry if most of them doesn't got "the", "that", or whatever things I should put in the start of each facts, but you can change these and put it instead. I'll add more I think. TheLogicalMine (talk) 01:29, 9 April 2021 (UTC)


 * Thanks for bringing it up in the talk section. Although I believe it won't really make much difference if you additionally make a comment here, you just need to edit the editcopy and the admins will periodically check it and update the official facts list. Hopefully your facts can get accepted! By the way, I'm going to edit part of your facts so that they fit the format. If you've got any questions, feel free to reply to this message, or directly go to my talk page if the question is unrelated to the editcopy. Windwend (talk) 06:10, 9 April 2021 (UTC)

I added six more facts because why not, but I'll add more (maybe 25) TheLogicalMine (talk) 12:46, 10 April 2021 (UTC)

When will facts accepted?
I'm curious when these facts would be accepted. I'm the one who made 30 facts in the module. TheLogicalMine (talk) 08:12, 24 April 2021 (UTC)

Note that some of these facts might have been already listed from the previous facts from before. These facts were made for a web series. TheLogicalMine (talk) 07:17, 14 August 2023 (UTC)


 * Looks good. I'll check them in a moment --TreeIsLife (talk) 13:43, 16 August 2023 (UTC)


 * The module automatically appends '...that ' to the beginning of each entry, so when adding to the module you only need to include the text afterward. Before the entries are included, relvant links to articles should be added to each entry for further exploration and general wiki formatting as outlined in MCW:STYLE should be followed, such as italics to game titles. You can check out [ the current entries] as a reference. Overall I think most of these aren't covered currently, thank you for your kind work! – Unavailablehoax (talk) 20:40, 16 August 2023 (UTC)
