User:Auldrick

Auldrick is from a nickname my much younger friends gave me years ago, recast now to a form that not only enhances its/my Celtic roots but is also original enough to qualify as a near-globally-unique user id without the necessity of either Better still, it's short, pronounceable, and at least some people will find its meaning transparent.

Projects I participate in
Minecraft Wiki talk:Projects/Renaming

Current Focus

 * Write User:Auldrick/Seed picker.

Future tasks being considered

 * Develop and propose a way to highlight pages that don't apply to Pocket Edition. I'd prefer to see this as a banner at the top of the page, so PE users who follow a link will see it immediately, but User:KnightMiner advised the opposite approach (which is already covered by only and partially by pocket) so I might have to sell my idea.


 * Convert the subpage Skin/Skin pack into a main page. See User:Auldrick/Move Skin pack subpage.


 * Author the page World template (redlinked from Template:Pocket Edition).


 * Review Category:Curse videos for accuracy of videos with respect to Pocket Edition->Minecraft.

Pocket Edition Celestial Mechanics
Little known fact: In MCPE prior to 1.1, the sun, moon, and stars rose in the north, not the east. The wiki didn't mention it at the time and MCPE didn't (and still doesn't) have the Debug screen, so I made all my navigation notes with the wrong assumption. When I figured it out, I made changes to the following pages to keep other PE users from making the same mistake. Stars still rise in the north in 1.1. Version 1.1 brought PE in line with the other editions, so I removed my changes in June 2017.

 * Moon
 * Day-night cycle
 * The Overworld
