Minecraft Wiki:Admin noticeboard

__NEWSECTIONLINK__ The Admin noticeboard is one way through which users can notify administrators of issues needing administrative attention. While users are welcome to directly contact specific administrators (especially if they are seen to be active), posting here can be an easier and quicker way of ensuring that at least one admin will notice an issue and respond to it promptly. Remember to sign (using four tildes:  ) when posting an issue.

Before posting an issue here, please consider the following:
 * This page is for reporting wiki issues. Please post discussions on the talk page.
 * Post only issues that require administrative action, i.e. blocking vandals, protecting pages, restoring deleted pages etc.
 * Do not post deletion requests here. Deletion requests should be made by adding reason for deletion request to the top of the target page, which will then automatically mark the page as a candidate for deletion.
 * Do not post issues regarding content disputes. Try making a request for comment instead.
 * Mediation requests between users should only be made if a resolution could not be reached between users.
 * For issues regarding the use of this wiki, please see our help center.

In case of vandalism, posting about it here is low priority. Revert it first, anyone can do so. If the vandal created a new page, tag it for deletion. Assume good faith and consider leaving a message on that user's talk page to explain the reason. Post here only if the user has made several disruptive edits and/or persists despite a warning. Always avoid a revert war with the vandal; it is far better to wait until an admin has a chance to intervene. If a user must be reported here, please use user, preferably as the topic subject/headline.

Can´t edit the Directors page
Hello, I´m an administrator of the german Wiki but can´t edit the Directors page. Can you change my rights, please? Because I have a question which I want to put there. Thank you --.zip de.MinecraftWiki-Admin Diskussion 18:28, 16 July 2013 (UTC)


 * Becoming an admin on one wiki does not automatically make you admins on other language wikis. You could post it on the talk page of this. — t  numbermaniac  c 22:07, 16 July 2013 (UTC)


 * >"The Minecraft Wiki Directors is made up of administrators from all of the language sites."
 * All admins from all language sites should have director rights on this wiki.
 * While I am here... consider this a request to give me director rights as well (I am an administrator on the Russian wiki). --GreenStone (0x54; 0x43) 22:16, 16 July 2013 (UTC)


 * Is there even such a right as director? Hmm, probably is. — t  numbermaniac  c 05:14, 17 July 2013 (UTC)

 * That answers all the questions I had about that. Cool. — t  numbermaniac  c 05:36, 17 July 2013 (UTC)


 * So can someone change the rights, please? --.zip de.MinecraftWiki-Admin Diskussion 22:37, 19 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Only bureaucrats and Curse can change user rights. The two bureaucrats of this wiki have not edited for a while, and the only active Curse person I know hasn't edited since the 12th. — t  numbermaniac  c 00:45, 20 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Thank you for your response. Then I have to wait.--.zip de.MinecraftWiki-Admin Diskussion 08:32, 20 July 2013 (UTC)
 * .zip, I have added you to the Director's group. -- Wynthyst [[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png ]] talk  22:07, 23 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Thank you--.zip de.MinecraftWiki-Admin Diskussion 10:10, 24 July 2013 (UTC)

Hi Wynthyst. Can I also become "director"? More, an administrator could add "Gizmo le fou" as an admin of the French wiki in this page : http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Minecraft_Wiki:Directors ? thanks Itouchmasterpro 18:38, 24 July 2013 (UTC)

Inappropriate Ad?
I am seeing an Ad pop up at the bottom of the page for "Wartune", which prominently says "MALE GAMERS ONLY" and leads to an adult-oriented site. I tried to link, but it wouldn't let me due to being a new use. wartune dot gamerankers dot com

Looking at the Wiki Rules, I feel it violates the spirit, if not any specific letter, of those rules. You may wish to speak to the company that handles the ads and ask that such not be displayed here. –Preceding unsigned comment was added by 69.136.69.61 (talk • contribs)&#32;01:39, 20 July 2013 (UTC).

 * I agree about that ad being inappropriate. All I've seen from that game's adds are images designed to attract male players (terminology is limited).  If you search up "wartune advertisement" on bing images, you can see what I mean.  And, this: www dot gamesindustry dot biz/articles/2013-05-10-wartune-advertising-runs-afoul-of-esrb.
 * Generally, this game is inappropriate. –Preceding unsigned comment was added by Pokechu22 (talk • contribs)&#32;04:24, 20 July 2013 (UTC). Please sign your posts with

BoxFigs vs 007a83 on Version history/Development versions
There seems to be an argument between these two users over when a particular bug was fixed. Could this be resolved by an admin? Thanks! :) — <sup style="font-weight:normal">t  numbermaniac  c 22:11, 22 July 2013 (UTC)

Horse
I think this needs protection again far too much vandalism crap from IPs. — <sup style="font-weight:normal">t  numbermaniac  c 08:55, 25 July 2013 (UTC)

Can't add link for a mod
I have a mod I'd like to be listed on the Mods page under Server Mods, but I can't add links to it (since I'm new). VoidX 19:36, 26 July 2013 (UTC)


 * What was the link, add for which mod? (add it here without the "http" bit.) — <sup style="font-weight:normal">t  numbermaniac  c 00:17, 27 July 2013 (UTC)

Server mods / Voidity: voidx.uw.hu/index.php?l=en&t=103

New content / GunPak: voidx.uw.hu/index.php?l=en&t=104

Links for OptiForge tutorial
I noticed that Mods/Installing_OptiForge/Forge_Installer hadn't been written, and I think that's actually the easiest way to get Forge/FML + OptiFine installed, so I created it myself. As a new user, I can't add links or things that look like links, though.

The missing links are:


 * Install Forge: "the official instructions on http colon slash slash www.minecraftforge.net/wiki/Installation/Universal"
 * Install Forge: "the current or recommended installer version from http colon slash slash files.minecraftforge.net/"
 * Install Forge: "(FML), you can download its installer from http colon slash slash files.minecraftforge.net/fml/"
 * Download OptiFine: "current OptiFine version from http colon slash slash optifine.net/downloads.php"
 * Modify the version JSON: "url": "http colon slash slash files.minecraftforge.net/maven/" (in the preformatted block)

Could someone add those please? Thanks, --Smcv 13:49, 27 July 2013 (UTC)
