Talk:Java Edition version history

Halloween Update
Can anyone add the Halloween Update on this page?

We'll probably have to edit it once the update actually does come out, though. Turtleey 06:47, 6 October 2010 (UTC)

Beta?
Is the beta heading really necessary to have before we've reached beta? Seems to me an empty heading is pretty pointless and should be removed until there's something to actually put in it. --Yourself 19:35, 31 October 2010 (CDT)

Clarity
I'm trying to work out when Rana and the MD3 mobs were in the game, and the table is proving tricky to read. Instead of listing the "eras" as "post Indev" etc, why not just "Indev"? JaffaCakeLover 17:09, 6 November 2010 (UTC)

Sunrise
The sunrise got a red glow somewhere around the halloween update. I believe it should be mentioned. (I dont know the exact update it came on, actually. I didnt even notice it myself) --BlueLegion 21:52, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
 * I'm pretty sure it came in with version 1.2.0 DannyF1966 22:20, 7 November 2010 (UTC)

Split
This page is really long and is growing with each update. I propose a subsection for each category. It will probably make this page easier to read and less of a memory hog for older computers. --Scykei 13:57, 19 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Split is ok, but I think the most recent updates (either the whole Post Alpha Multiplayer Survival Release page, or just the last couple of months) should always be on the version history page, with older updates archived into their own pages. --DannyF1966 16:34, 20 November 2010 (UTC)

Why the split?
This page is pretty fucking useless atm, tbh. Why was the patch history page split again? How could anyone looking for the latest updates, already *know* what they apply to? Per example, I just started Minecraft and found out there was an update. How should I know if it's for MP or SP? Please, let the powers that be reinstate the Patch History. --Nao 5.11 13:44, 25 November 2010 (CST)
 * Basically if multiplayer is already implemented, it is post multiplayer release. Metalhannes 19:48, 25 November 2010 (UTC)
 * OhdearGod, you know I never actually read it like that. I thought the divisions were instated in the way that all updates pertaining to single-player mode, and all updates pertaining to multi-player mode were on separate pages. Which would be dumb... Thanks for letting me see the proverbial light. --Nao 5.11 13:48, 25 November 2010 (CST)
 * If only all problems could be solved so quickly :D . Metalhannes 13:56, 25 November 2010 (CST)
