Minecraft mess
So... what is going to happen to this template? It's going to need a whole rewrite. – Nixinova •   • 04:31, 13 June 2017 (UTC)
 * I guess, the template might have to look like this:

 * Something like that, but Console Edition is being split into Minecraft and PS Editions and I dont wanna be punished by a grass block :( – Nixinova • Grid_Book_and_Quill.png Grid_Diamond_Pickaxe.png Grid_Map.png • 06:46, 13 June 2017 (UTC)


 * Console edition will continue to exist on PS4 and older console. Current Xbox One and Switch players will be able to keep the current console versions, but they won't be sold anymore on the Xbox/Nintendo stores. It's unclear if these two version will continue to get updates along PS4/older consoles, but I'm quite positive they will.


 * IMHO Minecraft - Minecraft: Java Edition - Minecraft: Console Edition is fine --Capopanzone (talk) 09:47, 13 June 2017 (UTC)


 * A while ago, I was experimenting on my sandbox with placing coloured edition rows to make the history table clearer for users. I guess it could be adapted for the new naming scheme. –Goandgoo ᐸ Talk Contribs 13:45, 13 June 2017 (UTC)


 * I've updated these tables on my sandbox with the potential new naming scheme, and I've got two versions - one with increased header font size and one with normal header font size. Please provide opinions. –Goandgoo ᐸ Talk Contribs 14:00, 13 June 2017 (UTC)


 * I like test 1, with the slightly bigger headers. Either way is good though. The colors look nice in my opinion. Header names too. Does it auto-sort the things to the right place in the table, or does it have to be put in that order? – Sealbudsman talk/contr 14:28, 13 June 2017 (UTC)


 * Once the template is updated, we may want a bot. Can or  do this. The BlobsPaper.png 14:04, 13 June 2017 (UTC)


 * I admittedly have not been very active lately, so I am not sure when I would be able to make any changes. I only just happened to log on today to see this message. I am sure it would be possible for me to write something to transfer the header names over, but wanting to reorder them as well makes things a bit messy. (I personally would keep the Java Edition on top since its the oldest and has the most headers, but I guess the PE/Win10 version (what are we going to call that anyways?) is the main version now). – KnightMiner  t/c 21:44, 13 June 2017 (UTC)
