Being a Wiki Admin.
Wynthsyt, After reading a topic on the minecraftforum.net forums about the wiki needing more admins, i thought i might apply. I have had prior experiances with uses wikis for other games, like dead frontier, pokemon, and Call of duty. And have helped sort and type information for them. Altough only being able to speak english, I think my help could help perhaps just a little bit, or make a big impact. Not sure if I need to post contact information, but anyway I'll post it regardless; E-mail; Email removed MC Forum Name; xNightmare --XNightmare 08:34, 8 March 2011 (UTC)


 * Thanks Nightmare. Keep your eyes open, more information will be forthcoming! Currently we are really looking for admins for the Dutch language wiki, but with as popular as Minecraft has become, there's always room for more here on the English wiki as well. -- Wynthyst [[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png ]] talk  01:25, 8 March 2011 (UTC)


 * I'll always be available. --XNightmare 08:35, 8 March 2011 (UTC)

Interested in being a Wiki Admin
Hey Wynthst, I saw your post on the minecraft forum, and it immediately grabbed my attention. I fluently speak Dutch, along with English and a couple other languages, and I'd love to help. I 'm a frequent contributor to the actual wikipedia, along with being a site owner. Not sure if previous experience really matters here, but I thought it may! :)

I see Nightmare posted his contact info, so I shall do the same:

 * If you are serious, please register an account on the Dutch wiki. Experience does count, but I'd also like to see people who are willing to be active contributors to the Dutch language wiki. I will let you know as I see how things are working out. Thanks for your interest.

Image resizing?
Methinks you grok the .png habit better than I, so might you take a look at:

Tutorials/Quarry

The new pic is rather nice, and has a good relative field of view, but I think its size is a little screen-busting. Is it worth asking the OP to resize it, or is this something you would normally just do yourself and repost the pic? -Wulfenbach (not on fire for once) 03:57, 8 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Uh.. just change it to a more normal size? – ultradude25 ( T at 04:13, 8 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Yeah, resizing is something anyone can do. -- Wynthyst [[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png ]] talk  05:03, 8 March 2011 (UTC)

Translator??
Wynthyst:I read in the Minecraft Forums that you need help for the wikia,i'm good with spanish and English but i have more interest in the Spanish one,i am Argentinian Myself and i will glad to help :D.

I don't have experience in administration,but i learn fast,if you want me to help just send a pm in the minecraft forums(chino_eze26).

Best of luck,bye bye

Dutch sysop
I know a fairly good user from the Urban Dead wiki whos first language is Dutch, and is fluent in English. He may be interested in being a moderator on the Dutch Minepedia. I'll get him in touch with you guys?  A NNOYING  04:31, 8 March 2011 (UTC)
 * I'm fully aware you might not want a user recommended by me, but he's a bro, don't worry.  A NNOYING  04:33, 8 March 2011 (UTC)
 * I have no problem taking your recommendations into consideration. I know we got off to a rocky start, but I'd like to see that change. I would just like to see more positive than negative attitude. We are seriously trying to make this a better wiki in the best way we know how. I do hope that anyone who is acting as an administrator (on any of the Minecraft wiki sites) will also be an active contributor. -- Wynthyst [[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png ]] talk  05:05, 8 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Alright. I'll have to see if he plays minecraft else I doubt he'll be able to do much around the place. As for rocky starts, I'm quickly finding reasons not to worry so much about the issues at hand. Not forced preview (whilst it would be nice for everyone to not have to deal with it) is a dream, and I recently found out Kizzi's ark of Herobrine is the top rated search for the respective term on Google, which is about as useful as it could ever get, so forcing it into the mainspace is no longer so important to anyone I imagine, lest me.

Admin for Dutch Wiki
Hi,

I would like to be an admin for the dutch wiki. I see that it still needs a lot of work in translating the stuff that normal users cannot edit. I am registered on the wiki. I am a web developer so I could easily help with all the CSS and stuff. MC Forum: gdscei Here: gdscei
 * Thank you for your interest. You are correct that the Dutch wiki is in need of a lot of work. I will be taking all of the requests under consideration. In the meantime, any contributions you can make to bettering the Dutch wiki are welcome. I am not going to make this decision lightly, as I do want active committed editors and administrators on all of the Minecraft wiki sites. Thanks for your interest. -- Wynthyst [[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png ]] talk  09:09, 8 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Can I somehow add the crafting background image for the crafting section of a block or does an admin need to look at this? -- gdscei talk  09:44, 8 March 2011 (UTC)
 * I believe that was all set up by Ultradude25. Everything should be able to be copied over from the English wiki, however it will all need to be translated. You may want to ask him how it's all set up. -- Wynthyst [[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png ]] talk  09:48, 8 March 2011 (UTC)
 * I'm kinda figuring it out by myself, I only need to get the images over to the Dutch wiki now. -- gdscei talk  09:58, 8 March 2011 (UTC)

Russian Minecraft Wiki
Hello, i would like to help with Russian section of Minecraft Wiki. I am an experienced editor of MediaWiki engine (helped a lot on Official Team Fortress 2 Wiki), and also an administrator of SteamWorld.ru server. I hope you will answer me soon. DrAkcel  (T 11:23, 8 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Please feel free to register and contribute to the Russian Minecraft wiki. All active editors have the potential to be promoted. At this time, we are looking for active admins specifically on the Dutch wiki, but all editors and contributors are welcome in every language. -- Wynthyst [[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png ]] talk  11:28, 8 March 2011 (UTC)

I have added the Chinese Section
The Chinese Section has been added my me: edenapple

Feel free to be part of the project. Egg is currently translated by me but I cannot change: Type, heals for, cookable and data value because it doesn't work when I change it.

Dutch Minecraft wiki application
Hello, I would like to be an Admin of the Dutch Minecraft wiki.

Username: Stevinator The Languages I speak: Dutch, English (both good), a little French and German (not very good), Latin and ancient-Greek (True!). My experience with wiki's: I've been Admin on some Wiki's, I have also been a Bureacrat on some, and a normal user on others. Relation with Minecraft: OMGWTFAWESOME24/7UBERADDICTION nothing much else to say about that... What am I able to help out with: deleting spam, correcting grammar (You would be surprised to know how little Dutch people can actually speak Dutch without much gramatical errors.), adding pictures (Not scared of a creeper or lava), helping the community, adding information, and that sort of stuff. How long have I played Minecraft: I play Minecraft since the Alpha. Why this application is so long: [quote] If it's worth doing, it's worth OVERdoing [/quote]

Greetings, Stevinator 12:04, 8 March 2011 (UTC)

EDIT: Enter seems not to be working properly


 * Everything you want to help with is already possible without being an admin, lol. Things like deleting pages, protecting pages and such are admin tasks. gdscei 12:18, 8 March 2011 (UTC)

Up for admin
Hi,

I read that the Dutch section needed some help, and after checking it out I couldn't agree more. Some important pages are full of mistakes. If you don't find enough capable people, I can give it a try. Dutch is my native language so that shouldn't be a problem. The downside is: I have zero experience in wiki editing, that is why I rather edit some stuff first. To contact me, pm in minecraftforums at equz.

Have a great day. Noah

PS: in the meantime, i recommend some changes, cause the dutch section seems to be written by a (no offence intended) 12-year old. As i said, i don't really have any experience so I'm not sure how it works but the block translations, who I think a non-admin can't change (because they are linked, or used within codes), are a bit off. For exemple: suiker rieten should be suikerriet, dinamiet -> dynamiet, champions -> champignons, toon blok -> nootblok, ... I'll try to edit it, but I'm not sure I can.

Admin

My username on both the Dutch and the English forum is Marinnos. I'm new at the forum but I have experience with other forums.

Just pm me

Minepedia Admin
