Minecraft Wiki:Admin noticeboard

Archives
I recently created a 17th archive for the noticeboard, can someone update the header template to support the new archive? Thanks! 1234567890Number (talk) 11:59, 27 September 2013 (UTC)

Spam filter blacklist
Both me and Bb 20 have been unable to link to Fraps.com on hardware performance because it is triggering the spam filter. Would someone be able to fix this? Thanks! -- t  numbermaniac  c  01:19, 28 September 2013 (UTC)


 * Adjusted the blacklist, see if it behaves itself now. -- Orthotopetalk 09:08, 28 September 2013 (UTC)
 * It works! Thanks! -- t  numbermaniac  c  12:03, 28 September 2013 (UTC)

0x10c wiki redirect (moved out of archive because its sill a problem)
When the 0x10c was shutdown it for some reason started redirecting to 0x10c Wiki.-- 007a83 Talk 06:23, 22 September 2013 (UTC)


 * More accurately, 0x10c.gamepedia.com is being forwarded to minecraft.gamepedia.com, which definitely shouldn't be happening. Nothing we can do here, Curse will have to sort it out next week. -- Orthotopetalk 06:43, 22 September 2013 (UTC)
 * I will get this resolved on Monday. -- Wynthyst  [[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png ]]  talk  07:07, 22 September 2013 (UTC)

Used files marked as unused
When multiple files are linked through semicolons (for example in grids), only the first file is displayed as used.

Example: File:White_Wool.png and File:Orange_Wool.png are both used in Template:Block in the article Wool, but only the White Wool is displayed as used. (/)

Is there a way to fix that? --eagle3000 (D ~ B) 16:49, 28 September 2013 (UTC)


 * It will be fixed when we have lua. –Matt ᐸ Talk Contribs ⎜ 21:00, 28 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Could u explain that to me a bit more? ETA for that? (because we're trying to delete all unused files in the german wiki, which we can't do in this situation) --eagle3000 (D ~ B) 21:10, 28 September 2013 (UTC)


 * The animation images are added and shown with JavaScript, so the images aren't "used" according to the wiki. When Curse updates to MediaWiki 1.21 (probably in a few months), we'll have lua and a lua version of the grid template which will create all the images, and JavaScript will just show them, so everything will work normally. –Matt ᐸ Talk Contribs ⎜ 23:24, 28 September 2013 (UTC)

Administrator rights
Can I be an administrator in this wiki? 1234567890Number (talk) 18:32, 28 September 2013 (UTC)


 * What will becoming an administrator allow you to do that isn't being done now? -- Wynthyst  [[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png ]]  talk  19:13, 28 September 2013 (UTC)


 * Whatever. Just forget this request.1234567890Number (talk) 22:48, 28 September 2013 (UTC)

Made this account for my little cousin. I caught him trying to vandalize Iron Golem. I pressed the cancel button just then and the page was safe. Put him away from the computers for a few hours was what I did, so in the time I have I am typing this message. Please block just the account, not the ip address. Thanks! 1234567890Number (talk) 01:52, 29 September 2013 (UTC)


 * He also unsuccessfully tried twice to vandalize Wither, but the filters caught it. He hasn't done any more than other random hit-and-run vandals so he doesn't deserve a block, yet. 03:18, 29 September 2013 (UTC)


 * Caught him again this morning doing bad edits on Block of Gold. I was too late though, since he manged to press the Save Page botton. I'm going to undo it now, and please block this time! 1234567890Number (talk) 13:25, 29 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Just a tip, Alt+F4 closes the current window on Windows. (Command+Q on Mac.) If he just pressed save page, closing the window quick enough might not save the edit. -- t  numbermaniac  c  23:15, 29 September 2013 (UTC)


 * I recall a very similar incident just two weeks ago. You may want to think more carefully about who you create accounts for. -- Orthotopetalk 07:47, 30 September 2013 (UTC)

Filters
I feel I have been wrongfully blocked from speaking on the Talk page of Redstone. It says a unwanted word was found in my edit, but I don't cuss. I am a new user, Could that play a part?--DJDoseMinecraft (talk) 20:27, 29 September 2013 (UTC)


 * The filter blocks a variety of unwanted text, not just obscenities. In particular, it's used to prevent Herobrine-related spam on pages unrelated to the Herobrine article. -- Orthotopetalk 07:47, 30 September 2013 (UTC)

Still having left-sidebar stuff encroaching on page.
Even with the social-disease buttons disabled, now the Gamepedia givaway and Infinite Crisis notices are doing the same thing. What's more, so is the "Minecraft Wiki" logo at the top, and that usually covers half the first button on the top. On consideration, "well, you changed your text size" is not really an answer -- dealing with that is part of webpage design, and the Wiki should be able to handle folks who don't want tiny print. --MentalMouse42 (talk) 13:05, 30 September 2013 (UTC)
