Re-protecting Undead page from IP edits
Page protection on Undead page expired and was almost immediately met with the same repetitive vandalism from the same person. Unfortunately they've been doing this to a bunch of other pages, though Undead in particular is a primary focus and will likely need to be re-protected. Original request.

 * Please stop using all caps and making demands. It's rude.  Harassing people is explicitly against the rules, as well, and repeatedly doing it is **definitely** a good reason for a block.
 * The word is "unnecessary".
 * No-one on the wiki can "change your IP". Your IP address is an indication of where your computer or phone is on the internet at any given time; it's assigned by internet service providers.  If you want to use the IP address 173.215.216.190 (there is no reason anyone should care about this, by the way), you have to go back to that same computer or device, at that same location, and hope that the numbers weren't re-assigned in the meantime.

Hardness information in infobox is gone
As the title says, the hardness information in the infobox for blocks is gone. It was usually always there, but since, as far as I know, it is gone since at least today, right at the moment when I needed it to create a mod... :P What happened to it? — DarkShadowTNT  NL Admin ( t  ♦  c ) 21:11, 26 November 2016 (UTC)


 * It looks like it was removed back in July after some discussion on the talk page. Not entirely sure I agree with removal of the field, but that's why it was removed.  It looks like Hardness redirects to a table with the same values (though, I'm not sure how up-to-date it is).
 * Though if you're writing a mod, the information is available on blocks themselves ( exists, though it's deprecated; there's some   method that you can use to get it as well (which should work with a block state)).  This isn't the best place to talk about that though.  --Pokechu22 (talk) 21:29, 26 November 2016 (UTC)


 * It was removed because it's already on the page. Look at the table to the left of the infobox on any block page. –Majr ᐸ Talk Contribs 01:03, 27 November 2016 (UTC)

Edit not allowed on Painting
I was trying to edit the Painting article since I spotted a statement intended to be fact that was inaccurate. Here is the original:

A painting of the main character of the classic Atari game International Karate (the Karateka character had white hair, this one clearly has black hair) fighting a large hand. It could also be interpreted as the two hands touching as seen in Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel painting. This is also in Super Smash Bros (SSB for short) A fighter fighting the Master Hand.

The concern here is "This is also in Super Smash Bros (SSB for short) A fighter fighting the Master Hand" which is a similarity, but has no evidence supporting it. I tried to Remove it, but was not allowed to. Here is the message I recieved when I tried to save the page:

Your action has been automatically identified as harmful, and therefore disallowed. A brief description of the matched abuse rule for your action is: Global AF - New user adding link at end or in heading If you believe your edit was constructive, please post a message on the admin noticeboard or notify an admin directly

If you believe that my change was not constructive I would be happy to accept that, but I believe the automated system is mistaken.

As I was here I also changed a small part about the Skull on Fire painting, but I removed this and tried again so I don't think it matters. If the summary is able to change the result, here is the summary I wrote:

Removed statement that the Pointer painting is related to Super Smash Bros. Added information about the Skull in painting Skull on Fire being set in Minecraft

This is my first time editing a page, so maybe I made a mistake. –Preceding unsigned comment was added by Camersauce (talk • contribs) at 23:57, 30 November 2016 (UTC). Please sign your posts with

Trying to add Console Edition info
I was trying to add some new information to the End City page, due to the upcoming Console Edition update. More specifically, I was trying to update the History section of the page, and found that I could not add a section labelled "Upcoming Console Edition" using the wikitext. I was reproducing the format used by the Upcoming Pocket Edition section, but it seems to not function with Upcoming Console Edition.

Where it says "console upcoming", it shows red text, as if it's the wrong format. The words "Added end cities" appears where the version should be, and nothing appears where the text "Added end cities" should be.

 * Note that when creating an account, it asks for a "Full Name", but this does not actually need to be your real name. The only purpose of that field is to set a display name instead of a login name.  It is completely acceptable to do this, so if that's your reason for not creating an account, you don't need to worry about it. --Pokechu22 (talk) 22:02, 7 December 2016 (UTC)

Also note that if you accidentally input your real name without having seen what Pokechu22 said, it is always changeable from your Account Settings.

 * Seriously? This is insane. I apologize for not browsing user pages in the intent of finding non-copyrighted material in order to complain on the admin noticeboard that I dislike this or that user and want him blocked... why, I don't know. Wait a minute, aren't you a random IP? What kind of user rights or privileges do you have to ask the admins to block me? Nevertheless, on what basis are you asking for a block? A silly piece of userbox content that you complain you cannot have; simply because you're too reluctant to make an account and quit badgering everyone! Perhaps, though, it's a portion of user page content that you believe violates a rule that is non-existent. I am amazed, and I do apologize to for not noticing that out of 274+ other people, his user page happened to look all-too-much-the-same compared to mine.

 * Going further, I suspect that your comments, including the section below, may be enough to warrant me to ping .

 * Other than containing userboxes, I see no substantial similarity between their user pages. Reporting users here without cause is a form of harassment, prohibited by rule #3, and will lead to a block if it continues. -- Orthotopetalk 01:23, 9 December 2016 (UTC)

 * There's certainly no rules outlawing IPs having talk pages; there's hundreds of IP talk pages on this wiki alone (mostly just warnings and rubbish, but still).

Anonymous users and registered users alike cannot block other users without being in the Administrator group. There are several other groups that allow user blocks, but generally "administrator" is the most common. In addition, unless you are logged in and are an administrator, you cannot block anyone. — Maethoredhel ( Talk • Contribs • Logs ) 18:51, 11 January 2017 (UTC)

General discussion regarding Cymonah2
Hallo! I wanted to bring this page to attention as it seems to hold some importance in regards to a user we harbor. I am not by any means seeking to offend, harass, or otherwise bring down, but this Wikipedia page seems to hold a great deal of importance. For reference: wp:Sockpuppet investigations/Cymonah2. It would seem that this is the same user, as the somewhat unintelligible English within their edits match that of which can be found on Wikipedia under the same name. Additionally, the case was closed only two days ago, meaning that this is all fairly recent. I have a suspicion regarding a previous user that was here on the wiki about a year ago, by the name of CreeperFan2016. The reason for this being that Cymonah2, in the History section of their userpage, states "CreeperFan2016 Now Buy The Full Game". I wish to publicly ask if the Wikipedia case is indeed them, and if they have ever had any previous affiliation with the Minecraft Wiki under any username. Regards, — Maethoredhel ( Talk • Contribs • Logs ) 15:42, 14 January 2017 (UTC)


 * Pardon the expression, but I generally feel that this editor is following a pattern of wp:Disruptive editing. I commented on his talk page with a welcome, and he afterwards blanked the page and added other things back in. Additionally, this editor has made several other unnoticed modifications to other users' talk pages, which can be verified by checking Special:Contributions/Cymonah2. — Maethoredhel ( Talk • Contribs • Logs ) 16:03, 14 January 2017 (UTC)


 * The user also uploaded three images without using them. I have marked two of them for deletion, and I should probably do the same for the third. I have put a message on their talk page, so we should wait for a response before blocking them. The BlobsPaper.png 16:13, 14 January 2017 (UTC)


 * Further evidence against him: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Cymonah2&diff=prev&oldid=750022011. There is clearly a pattern, checking this diff here on the Minecraft Wiki. — Maethoredhel ( Talk • Contribs • Logs ) 16:16, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Actually, checking the upload log, they uploaded a lot of images without using the images. The BlobsPaper.png 16:48, 14 January 2017 (UTC)

Possible copyright violation
I was creating a new page to describe the Seed Picker, an exclusive feature of Pocket Edition that lets users create a world from pre-selected seeds obtained from user-generated content on (I think) Xbox Live. The UI displays thumbnails of the generated worlds, so I uploaded the images (which turned out to be full-size images, not thumbnails) to display in a table or gallery and marked them as Mojang-copyrighted since I uploaded them from a game folder. However, on further investigation I discovered that the game downloads these images from a Microsoft server (https://ugcorigin.s-microsoft.com), so now I'm concerned that these may be copyrighted by Microsoft instead in which case we can't use them on the wiki if I'm not mistaken. The files are: I'm bringing this to Admin attention so you can delete them if you agree that we can't use them. – Auldrick (talk &middot; contribs) 16:29, 17 January 2017 (UTC)

No longer official
For a long time now, https://minecraft.net/en-us/help/ has considered this wiki an UNOFFICIAL HELP RESOURCE, but it is still labelled as an "Official Wiki" on the top left, on the Gamepedia bar. Maybe an admin and/or Curse should consider removing that, since it is kind of screwed up to trick readers into thinking this is official. OSX Plays (talk) 19:55, 31 January 2017 (UTC)


 * From 2011 to 2016, this wiki (along with the forums) was listed as an "official resource" at http://www.minecraft.net/community. My guess is that they changed this section during the site redesign because someone at Microsoft insisted that any site not owned and controlled by Microsoft can't be listed as 'official'. If this really bothers you that much, get a public statement from someone at Mojang about it, and then contact Curse directly; admins here can't change the Curse toolbar. -- Orthotopetalk 21:05, 31 January 2017 (UTC)

‎159.180.69.* IP Range and 198.180.187.31
There have been numerous instances of vandalism by multiple IP addresses coming from the same IP range: 159.180.69.*. The vandalism campaign started with 159.180.69.31, then 159.180.69.32 (though their only edit did contribute to the page), and finally as 159.180.69.35 (who also vandalized the same page in the same way as .31). Furthermore, there was another recent rogue edit to the Lava page by ‎198.180.187.31, which belongs to the same service provider and region as the other IP's. From this information, it seems all of these edits were made by the same user. I'd suggest a temporary ban from editing on those IP ranges. Jocopa3 (talk) 21:17, 3 February 2017 (UTC)


 * 159.108.69.* seems to be some sort of proxy or accelerator, as there are quite a few different IPs going through it. Only 159.180.69.31 and 159.180.69.35 seem to be the same user, as they have the same IP address behind the proxy. –Majr ᐸ <small style=display:inline-block;line-height:9px;vertical-align:-3px>Talk Contribs 23:46, 3 February 2017 (UTC)

repointing links on blocks and items
Per Template_talk:Blocks, could we get the  parameters of the blocks and items templates to point to Block and Item respectively, rather than to Blocks and Items? – Sealbudsman <span style="transform: rotate(-16deg); display: inline-block; top: -1px; position: relative;">talk/contr 00:24, 25 April 2017 (UTC)

There was a file that the user supposedly had requested for deletion three weeks ago. After no response, it appears said user is angry, violating rule #3 (with this comment) and making a page that is obviously spam. -BDJP (t 20:58, 25 April 2017 (UTC)


 * I'd like it to be deleted for one (surprisingly simple) reason: it's a duplicate of SmallCropFarmIsometric.png. VeenM64 (talk) 21:08, 25 April 2017 (UTC)


 * Well, there was absolutely no reason for you to get angry over ANY of this. You simply should've just talked to an administrator (calmly) regarding why the page needs to be deleted. Heck, you clearly should've had second thoughts before posting any of this. Unfortunately, these actions by you will most likely have consequences. -BDJP (t 21:22, 25 April 2017 (UTC)


 * That's exactly what I did on the file talk page, but absolutely nothing was done. I even once mentioned 's name on it in an effort to attract attention, but even that didn't help. :( VeenM64 (talk) 16:25, 27 April 2017 (UTC)


 * Alright cool your jets, everybody... Let's just put a delete tag on the File page, and call it a day.
 * VeenM64: all you have to do is put a delete header at the top of the page, then it goes into a queue for the admins, and someone will delete it when they do a sweep. – Sealbudsman <span style="transform: rotate(-16deg); display: inline-block; top: -1px; position: relative;">talk/contr 21:29, 25 April 2017 (UTC)


 * I'm still trying to figure out why you uploaded the same file a second time instead of just moving the original one. Also, making disruptive and borderline abusive edits is not a good way to get wiki staff to do what you want. -- Orthotopetalk 07:05, 26 April 2017 (UTC)


 * I just wanted to start fresh with a new upload so that I could make a better image description, as well as giving it a proper Mojang license. VeenM64 (talk) 16:25, 27 April 2017 (UTC)


 * For future reference, you can edit a file's description (and license templates) just the same as any other page, by clicking the "Edit" tab when viewing the file's page. 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 18:15, 27 April 2017 (UTC)

File:Villager.png is bugged
File:Villager.png is bugged due to the file moved to File:Farmer Villager.png by Oakar567. Please fix. DentedHarp90041t 06:14, 2 May 2017 (UTC)
 * For some reason, did a copy and paste move instead of an actual move. An admin will need to copy the content back and move the image the correct way, deleting the existing version. The BlobsPaper.png 13:22, 2 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Actually, it was a proper move. A history merge will be required. The BlobsPaper.png 13:36, 2 May 2017 (UTC)

Defeating the ender dragon
In Tutorials/Defeating the ender dragon, I tried to remove all the info about using splash potions of harming - because, as it rightly says at the end of the article, "as of 1.9 [...] Splash Potions of Harming are useless".

My edit was disallowed, it says,

"An automated filter has detected that you are attempting to remove a section of this page. As a new user, your action has been disallowed. If you believe your edit was constructive, please post a message on the admin noticeboard or notify an admin directly"

Please remove all the parts that mention using harming pots. It's misleading otherwise, there's no point discussing it throughout then saying at the end that they're useless.

Thanks. 86.20.193.222 11:53, 11 May 2017 (UTC)
 * What is the name of the section you tried to remove? The BlobsPaper.png 13:58, 11 May 2017 (UTC)

"Splash Potion of Harming Pros" and "...Cons".

There are some other bits that need removing too, e.g. in "Before Entering", the bullet-point "A splash potion of Harming II (To throw at the dragon when it tries to head butt you)".

It's probably easiest to just search "harming" and you'll see all mentions.86.20.193.222 15:28, 11 May 2017 (UTC)
 * I removed the content. The BlobsPaper.png 22:36, 11 May 2017 (UTC)

Um, it still has 3 parts,

1. In "Before Entering" - "A splash potion of Harming II (To throw at the dragon when it tries to head butt you)"

2. In "Managing the Dragon" -  "Cons" - "... quickly throw your Splash Potion of Harming at it. "

and 3rd, I see no point now in the "Notice" - "The Dragon does not head butt anymore as of 1.9, meaning Splash Potions of Harming are useless."

(I still can't do that myself, because it complains about removing a section again)

Thanks for your attention. 86.20.193.222 02:40, 12 May 2017 (UTC)

(BTW, the dragon seems totally immune to Splash Harm, from testing I did earlier today. That's why I kinda wanted to get this fixed, so others don't waste time/die nastily by trying to use them ) 86.20.193.222 02:45, 12 May 2017 (UTC)
 * The notice section is still useful because it indicates that you should not use potion of harming. I have removed the other items.
 * Also, I am not sure why it said you were trying to remove a section because it detects whether you are removing a section header. The BlobsPaper.png 13:52, 12 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Thanks.
 * I don't know why it wouldn't let me, but that's the message I got.
 * As far as I can tell, the dragon is immune to all potions. Presumably, that means tipped arrows too. If that's true, it'd be useful to add that somewhere on the wiki - it's not an easy thing to find out. 86.20.193.222 19:49, 12 May 2017 (UTC)
