A false information on Bedrock Edition removed features
In Bedrock Edition Removed Features page, there is a false information that you can no longer sprint on water. In Mobile on Bedrock Edition, you can still do that by sprinting first then hold sprint and one of the buttons that uses to go up in the water simultaneously. I'm unable to delete that because it's an entire article.

1.17
we need a page on 1.17, due to the fact that we have a page for 1.16 and before. We had a page for 1.16 when we were in 1.14 so why not now? Why not a 1.17 page for when we are in 1.16, We know the release date, which is the 3 October 2020. These are the reason I believe we need a page for 1.17.

Changes to "Useful pages" list in wiki sidebar
I have two changes proposed to the "Useful pages" list in the sidebar of the wiki to the left, if it is possible to implement.
 * 1) Change the link texts of "Resource pack" and "Redstone circuit" to plural form, for consistency to the other links in the list and the links from "Popular and useful pages" on the main page.
 * 2) Exchange some links from the sidebar "Useful pages" and the main page "Popular and useful pages" that one or the other does not already have. I'm not gonna specify any links myself because I haven't thought it through, but you can discuss it if needed.

In my opinion, suggestion 1 should be implemented regardless. 82.102.22.7 02:05, 16 September 2020 (UTC)


 * suggestion 1, as it seems pretty straightforward and non-controversial.

Semi protect Splash
A week ago User:Nixinova protected Splash for a week, but the disruption resumed after the protection lifted, and one anon is currently edit-warring about it. There is talk page discussion about this too, with the anon basically stating an intent to continue disruption. I recommend semi-protection at least until the US federal election is over on 3 November. ~ Amatulic (talk) 23:48, 19 September 2020 (UTC)

 * Semi = registered on Gamepedia, annoyingly.  Nixinova </b>  T </b>  C </b></b>  06:11, 20 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Huh. Isn't there a means of protection here that imposes an age and activity threshold? On the English Wikipedia where I'm an admin, "semi" protects against registered accounts that are less than 5 days old OR have less than 10 edits. We also have "extended confirmed", which protects against registered accounts less than 30 days old OR have less than 500 edits. And of course full protection. Oh, and there's another one called "pending changes protection" that I rarely use because I regard it as useless; it's weaker than semi, letting anybody edit but not making that edit visible publicly until a user with the "reviewer" right approves the change (as far as I've seen, this protection level just creates more work for others). ~ Amatulic (talk) 06:30, 20 September 2020 (UTC)

 * Here on Gamepedia users become autoconfirmed upon registering, so semi-protection allows all accounts to edit. If I recall correctly, you can't directly add a protection level that restricts editing to a custom user group; that is, we would not be able to have autopatrol protection or patroller protection. A possible but not very practical solution would be to use abuse filters. --Madminecrafter12 (Talk to me 15:41, 23 September 2020 (UTC)

 * A lot of the edits are not necessarily vandalism but rather editorializing and other forms of disruptive edits. There also seem to have been several constructive IP edits in the last month, and the most recent case of vandalism was actually from a registered user, which semi-protection would not be effective against. I'll wait a week or so and if there's a significant amount of disruptive editing by unregistered users in that time I'll protect for a month or so, otherwise leave it alone.--Madminecrafter12 (Talk to me 16:09, 24 September 2020 (UTC)

Remove protection from some old pages
These two:


 * Minecraft Wiki talk:Admin noticeboard/Archive 1
 * Minecraft Wiki talk:Issues/Xbox 360 Edition issues

are currently protected at admin level, unlike all other Issues pages. As such, neither the main nor talk page are editable and therefore I can't place an unprotect request template on the talk pages. Can the protection be removed from both of those? (It's already been pretty well established that removing protection from archive pages doesn't result in them receiving copious amounts of vandalism - from my memory no archive pages unprotected have received any disruptive edits at all, only maintenance edits, and there have been many cases of talk archives being without protection at least as far back as 2013 with no problematic behaviour occurring whatsoever.)

There are also three protected titles: (see comments)

which while they can obviously only be created as vandalism due to their clearly offensive titles, probably don't need the protection at all anymore - there are too many other variations on offensive words possible via leetspeak (which nobody uses in 2020 anyway) that exhaustively protecting them all would be infeasible. As the risk of a vandal recreating these is positively zero, I see no benefit in having them up for display on ProtectedTitles.

Demote
This user has been inactive for almost 1 year, but he still has his admin and bureaucrat rank. I think maybe we should demote him/her of admin ranks because of inactivity. James Haydon (talk) 21:56, 8 October 2020 (UTC)

Caves And Cliffs Work In Progress pages
I've been making pages on the Caves And Cliffs update, and I understand why they shouldn't be linked on the main Caves And Cliffs page. However, I feel that there should be a way to access work-in-progress pages on the caves and cliffs update.
 * WIP versions are on the redirect pages, such as Warden, just return to the warden page, and edit the info below the redirect. These pages are hidden, as per wiki rules, they shouldn't have articles yet until they appeared in public development versions. Dhranios (talk) 20:51, 9 October 2020 (UTC)
