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:
Post only issues that require administrative action, i.e. blocking vandals, protecting pages, restoring deleted pages etc.
Do not post deletion requests here; instead, the page should be tagged for deletion.
Do not post issues regarding content disputes. Try making a request for comment instead.
Mediation requests between users should only be made once a resolution could not be reached between users.
For issues regarding the use of this wiki, please see our help center.
For issues with filters preventing edits from being saved: filters are not able to be disabled for specific people. However, an admin may be able to perform the edit themselves for you. "New user" filters expire after you log in and make some edits around the wiki.
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 speedy 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, do not create a new section. Instead, add * {{vandal|Example user}} Your concise reason (e.g. vandalised past 4th warning). ~~~~ in the Block requests section.
If a protection or unprotection request must be requested here, do not create a new section. Instead, add * {{la|Example page}} '''duration (temporary or indefinite) and protection level''': Your concise reason (e.g. constant spam and vandalism). <nowiki>~~~~ in the Protection requests section.
Please post new topics at the bottom of the page by clicking the "add topic" button above.
Last night I was editing the parity issue list, I was adding some important things, it took me about an hour. When I was done and hit save, it didn't let me. Some network error popped up. Now I tried it again, this time I only edited one single line and hit save, it didn't work again, and I received the following warning:
Your action has been disallowed by an automated edit filter. A brief description of the matched rule(s) for your action is:
[SOAP] Spam prevention
I wasn't "spamming", I was just trying to add important things that were missing from that page. I would like to know why this happens and how I can continue editing without getting this warning. Hobbylos1 (talk) 12:13, 28 January 2024 (UTC)
Short answer: you attempted to add a link to the forked wiki, which is against the Forking Policy.
Full answer: I assume "this time I only edited one single line" is referring to the line starting with "Player's hand and held." However, in your attempted edits, you also touched the line three lines down (the one starting with "Players have an animation"). I'm guessing you copied that line, or maybe the entire General or Animations section, and pasted it on this wiki. However, for whatever reason, this changed the link in that line: it replaced the link in the reference tag (the Minecraft Feedback link) with a link to the reference tag (what happens when you click the little [feedback 1] in the article). Those URLs, by default, take the URL of the current article and append "cite_note-x" to it. Since you were copying text from the forked wiki, that URL was a link to the forked wiki. The AbuseFilter does not allow links to the forked wiki. SLScool 00:04, 29 January 2024 (UTC)
Add a page for the Minecraft Edu Edition "Ender Communicator"[]

Please create a page called "Criticism of Minecraft"[]

I'm not an admin and have no idea what would've triggered that abuse filter, but the page you're describing is not something that would meet this wiki's notability guidelines, which disallow pages regrading fan-made content. If that's still something you want to get posted to the wiki, it would have to be a subpage of your user page – JECtalk @ 15:41, 7 December 2021 (UTC)
I also changed the filter a bit. I suspect it was causing an issue because of the "lapisSize" property. --AttemptToCallNil (talk) 10:29, 8 December 2021 (UTC)
In Category:Pending deletion, there are 316 pages/files in the category plus 1 subcategory and 2 more in Category:Pending speedy deletion. Can all of them be deleted?

Undeleting a very old image[]
On the main page, alongside File:Minecraft.png there used to be another file, File:Minecraft2.png, captioned "Epic cityscapes", which has long since been deleted (and doesn't show up on the internet archive either: http://web.archive.org/web/20090621202937/http://minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Main_Page). Since this was one of the very first images ever added to the wiki and since its companion is still around and still being used on the classic page, I think it deserves to be undeleted so it can be seen again by the modern world. AlienAgent124 (talk) 07:50, 1 May 2022 (UTC)
Thanks a ton, and while we're on the subject of undeleting old files, I noticed something else: the files File:Cavern 1.png, File:Cavern 3.png and File:AlexVMiner's Spleef Arena.png are some of the only known screenshots of the missing version 0.0.21a_01. However, the user who uploaded these images also uploaded another image on the same day as those three, File:Cavern2.png, which was deleted. This was probably also taken in the same version so it's probably also one of the few existing screenshots of this version, so it definitely ought to be undeleted too.
There's probably at least a few more old deleted screenshots on here that are of versions now lost, but it would be difficult to tell which ones without undeleting them first. AlienAgent124 (talk) 00:30, 3 May 2022 (UTC)
Cavern2.png is just an extremely cropped lava texture. Feel free to add more files here to look at undeleting. NixinovaTC 05:49, 10 May 2022 (UTC)
Fix false positives regarding edit filter 50[]
I have pointed out many false positives regarding edit filter 50, called "Tag character spam", by adding hex colors, such as #333333, #999999, etc., hence I proposed to fix the false positives to that edit filter. DeepLineMadom (talk) 07:27, 2 May 2022 (UTC)
It kicks in, however, only for users with less than 10 edits. I think that's reasonable, and unlikely to generate false positives. Amatulic (talk) 18:15, 2 May 2022 (UTC)

iron golem spawn volume conditions are in conflict in 2 pages for bedrock edition[]
These information are in conflict ! Which one is correct?

I believe your second link was intended to link to the Tutorials/Iron golem farming, where you saw this discrepancy.
Always assume that article pages are more correct than tutorial pages. Articles contain actual technical information based on testing and code examination. Tutorials pages were originally created as a way to keep "how to" advice out of the articles, so that the articles contain only information about the game and not how to play it. Many tutorials are dumping grounds for fancruft and youtube videos, although I've tried to keep some of them clean and up to date, such as the ones about farming drowned, iron golems, axolotls, zombie villagers, and water transportation.
I missed the change for the iron golem farming article. Thanks for pointing it out.
The spawn volume changed after 1.17.30. I have fixed the tutorial page so now they both agree. Amatulic (talk) 17:07, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
Error with loot chests[]
All locations where there would be a table of a loot chest normally instead have this text: "Lua error in Module:LootChest at line 3817: attempt to index field 'rolls' (a nil value)."

User:AttemptToCallNil made a bunch of edits to the module in the past two days. It may have been the result of that. I left a note on their talk page. Amatulic (talk) 14:44, 10 June 2022 (UTC)
The error was introduced in edit 2136652, I actually fixed it. Because of that edit, several upcoming pool lists became part of ordinary pool lists (they were supposed to be sibling nodes) and were interpreted by the module as one of the pools. Since the upcoming lists ended up empty after the edit, the module crashed due to absence of some critical fields that all pools are expected to have. --AttemptToCallNil (talk) 06:47, 11 June 2022 (UTC)
Navigation popups gadget no longer working[]
Since the recent wiki software update that finished earlier today, the 'navigation popups' gadget (see user preferences / gadgets) has stopped working. I rely on this gadget heavily to preview diffs in my watchlist and in recent changes, and also for patrolling edits.
It would be nice if the {{ping}} template started working with this new update. Testing pinging BDJP007301: Did you get notified of that ping? Amatulic (talk) 16:38, 22 June 2022 (UTC)
I submitted an updated version of the popups gadget for JS review. It worked for me in test mode. As for pings, I'm not sure, but I think the issue is with the custom notification system used, which won't work no matter how much MediaWiki is updated. --AttemptToCallNil (talk) 17:06, 22 June 2022 (UTC)
Navigation popups is now working again for me.
It's a pity about the pings. That is an incredibly useful feature for those of us who 2000 pages on our watch list. Amatulic (talk) 00:17, 23 June 2022 (UTC)
I take that back. Navigation popups appears, but the "mark as patrolled" option is no longer there under the top heading. Amatulic (talk) 00:19, 23 June 2022 (UTC)
That's most likely an upstream change, so if this option is necessary, it will have to be re-implemented by local admins, which is a non-trivial task. --AttemptToCallNil (talk) 03:15, 23 June 2022 (UTC)
Well, the navigation popups gadget had to be implemented by someone in the first place, and it was done originally at my request after I tested it by pulling it in from MediaWiki. That conversation is at Minecraft Wiki:Admin noticeboard/Archive 33#Woohoo! It works. User:Madminecrafter12 originally imported it and made it available in user preferences. The gadget did need some tweaking before it started working really well, particularly with patrolling. User:Majr fixed up that feature. User:Jack McKalling also participated. I guess it needs to be looked at again. Amatulic (talk) 23:43, 24 June 2022 (UTC)
Inappropriate username[]
There is a user named Minecraft Wiki Administrator which is misleading because the user is definitely not an admin. Is it preferable to rename the account, or should the user just create another account? Fadyblok240 (talk) 02:52, 24 June 2022 (UTC)
Blocked indefinitely. BDJP(t|c) 03:06, 24 June 2022 (UTC)
Is it a soft block or a hard block? If the username is the only problem with the account, then a hard block may not be justified. Sure, the edit made by the user isn't constructive, but we may not know whether the user is editing with malicious intent without letting the user make more edits. Fadyblok240 (talk) 03:10, 24 June 2022 (UTC)
In this case, because the user had "Admin" or "Adminstrator" in their name, it generally falls under a hard block. Some accounts with that word in their username haven’t even edited (or their contributions were deleted) before being blocked. BDJP(t|c) 03:28, 24 June 2022 (UTC)

Important question[]
Is the official Technoblade easter egg on the Minecraft Launcher allowed on this wiki? (It is an official easter egg from Mojang.) I am having a dispute with another user about this. Minermatt122514 (talk) 21:09, 2 July 2022 (UTC)
I think that you are correct on the matter. Technoblade's crown is a feature built into the game that is important to address in the article, and disallowing it because it's "advertising a youtuber" just seems a bit silly to me. A note to both of you, however (pinging Minermatt122514 and ZaLink700), repeatedly reverting each other's edits over and over, especially spamming ALL CAPS in the edit summaries, is never a way to solve a dispute, and risks being blocked over. Next time, if something like this happens, I'd recommend starting a discussion somewhere to solve the issue, either on that page's talk page or just here (which I'm glad you did do eventually). --Madminecrafter12 (talk) 04:38, 3 July 2022 (UTC)

Abuse filter[]
Can you please remove the abuse filter when removing sections? I am redirecting the page Heartstealer to the page Claymore#Heartstealer, and then the abuse filter disallowed me from removing a section. Can you please remove the abuse filter? 110.54.116.150 (talk) at 10:25 UTC July 13, 2022
I'd say no. It would have negative consequences in other situations, and the redirect is bad anyway; there is no "heartstealer" section on the MCD:Claymore page. If you want this done, fix the destination page first and then ask someone with a confirmed account to fix the redirect. Amatulic (talk) 17:57, 12 July 2022 (UTC)

One of the lines changed in the IP's edit included a blocked string inside another word which triggered the abuse filter, even though it was already there and not touched directly by the edit.

It should be fixed now. Just be careful of how you move pages around so that the actual page history stays with the page, instead of just copypasting the contents to the correct location. If you aren't able to move the page directly back to its original title, it may be better to wait for an admin to delete the incorrect pages so it can be restored correctly; or see Wikipedia's instructions on Round robin moves for how to resolve such a situation yourself. –Sonicwavetalk 05:35, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
More broken functionality[]
Since the recent wiki software update a month or so ago, I have noticed, in addition to the "patrol" feature disappearing from the Popups gadget, now diffs no longer have a "thank" option. I found this useful to acknowledge when someone corrected something I did. Amatulic (talk) 04:51, 28 July 2022 (UTC)
Comment: It's not broken, bacause it appears on history pages. It seems to be a change made by staff on some config option for the extension globally. We could try to request it to get reverted back to how it was before, but we'd need a good reason anyway. Supeika (talk) 13:57, 28 July 2022 (UTC)
The good reason is that it was a useful communication aid that should still be available. Another reason might be that an "upgrade" to wiki software shouldn't result in downgraded functionality.
I never used it from history pages. I use "thank" from diff pages, where it used to work quite well.
As for page patrolling via popups, I do that from my watchlist. I don't recall it ever worked from history pages. Amatulic (talk) 21:50, 28 July 2022 (UTC)

Info on Formatting codes in minecraft and specifically Book & Quill (java)[]
Info on Formatting codes in minecraft and specifically Book & Quill regarding Java version; there was a change in the 1.18.1 update which allows for formatting text in book & quill in game, this works on the current releases as well. Can the wiki(s) be updated to reflect this?
Bjornolil (talk) 20:29, 1 November 2022 (UTC)
That change can be done by everybody (including you), so I am not sure what are we discussing here right now. Also a friendly reminder, this page is for requesting action/comment of wiki admins (specifically), otherwise everything should go on Community portal or to respective talk pages. --TreeIsLife (talk) 21:59, 1 November 2022 (UTC)
Several IP edits tried to add info regarding the use of the paragraph symbol (§) for formatting to the page, but these edits were reverted. For good reason. Formatting is not possible in Java Edition using just that symbol. Although the symbol might have said effect, using it is not possible without hacking the client or using 3rd party software. Formatting with the paragraph symbol has been replaced with raw JSON text formatting. That is the recommended method for applying formatting, as the underlying functionality of the paragraph symbol is going to be phased out at some point. Although not explained in this much words in the corrective edit summaries, this is what was explained and that is why this information is not added to said page. Assuming you're referring to the paragraph symbol. Jack McKalling (talk) 22:14, 1 November 2022 (UTC)
Although json may be the "correct" way to format, the section sign can also be used, even in vanilla clients prior to 1.14 and later than 1.18.1 I have tested that on two different computers, my laptop (Windows 11), my desktop(Linux Mint 21). I do not use hacked clients, however I did use notepad to type the character first as I am aware it can't be typed directly in java edition, is that considered a third-party software then?. How to reproduce this: Open minecraft launcher, start a new game (any version where books are available (except 1.14-1.18.1). Copy the character § from notepad after typing it, paste in minecraft book, then type any format character (0-9,a-f, k-o) then type, the typed text will then be formatted.
I am sorry that I used the wrong page, however the first text on the community page includes this text: "..discussions about a single page do not belong here", so I wasn't sure where else to post it.

Hi, as you might now a few weeks ago I proposed to delete old add-on tutorials, citing low activity, them being generally incomplete/unfinished and having better resources on places like wiki.bedrock.dev and official Microsoft docs.
Given the lack of interest, despite having deletion requests, right on the pages themselves, I decided to give a heads up that I would post the deletion request, if I didn't have any objections by the next weekend. That time has come. I thinks it's fair to say, that if anyone would have wanted to step up and maintain the pages, they'd have spoken up already.
Which is why I'm requesting to delete them. They've served their purpose and now they're effectively superseded by official docs.
I've updated the deletion requests to link to this page. -Madman1995 (talk) 18:48, 6 November 2022 (UTC)
In Talk:Bedrock Edition guides/Nether Update, I edited a section about the global moderation system. If you look in the edit summary, you can see “1.16.100 or 1.16.101… (added in hyperlinks due to edit filter claiming I posted a server IP x6, this is not vandalism x5)“. I believe the edit filter go mixed up because 1. I was not posting a server IP, and 2. It is not vandalism. I don’t know why this happened. 1.158.238.102 08:41, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
I see your attempts in https://minecraft.fandom.com/wiki/Special:AbuseLog?wpSearchTitle=Talk%3ABedrock+Edition+guides%2FNether+Update but I also see that you eventually were able to add it by redlinking them. The edit filter kicked in because you are editing from an Australian IP address that is new here, and you started out by posting a sequence of dot-delimited numbers that look like a server IP address in Korea. Once your IP address is no longer "new" (meaning it has made at least 10 edits) there should be no problem. Amatulic (talk) 17:39, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
Version numbers look like IP addresses, I guess. And also, I hope to get 10 edits soon, so this wouldn’t be a problem in the future. 1.158.238.102 22:00, 11 November 2022 (UTC)

The page that you had made, along with the files that you used for said page, were deleted because it is in violation of rule 4 regarding nonsense pages. The wording on the page, as well as use of images multiple times across the page, is the reason why they were deleted as clearly nonsense. With how the page was set up and worded, it was clearly not a tutorial despite you saying otherwise. Please read over the rest of the wiki rules and the style guide before contributing further to this wiki. Thank you. BDJP(t|c) 17:47, 14 November 2022 (UTC)

Nixinova: retiring my admin and bureaucrat perms[]
Since I have been virtually inactive over the past year with regard to my use of elevated rights, I've retired my administrator and bureaucrat roles on the wiki as I am no longer active enough to justify having them. There is now just one bureaucrat, so maybe someone should be promoted to fill my place NixinovaTC 05:17, 25 March 2023 (UTC)
My activity has waned also but I still check in 3 or 4 times per week, mostly to reduce the backlog of pending deletions (and I've taken a big chunk out of it since I became an administrator here). On English Wikipedia, the only things a bureaucrat can do are promote editors to administrators or bureaucrats and rename accounts. Is the same is true here? I could take it on. I don't expect I'll be needing the 'crat abilities much, however.
I do think we need an administrator with expertise in Minecraft Dungeons. I've been active in that namespace, but only doing gnomish maintenance work like getting things into compliance with the style guide. I don't play the game so I don't know much about it. I play only Minecraft Bedrock Edition.
On the other hand, what harm does it do for you to keep the permissions, even if you're inactive? Amatulic (talk) 21:00, 25 March 2023 (UTC)
Bureaucrats can also promote patrollers, bots and directors and delete individual revisions in accordance with the RevisionDelete policy. Neither of these should be much additional workload though, and SOAP members here can also handle RevDel requests. –Sonicwavetalk 18:45, 26 March 2023 (UTC)

Update DidYouKnow[]
The "Did You Know" facts have not been updated for a while now. Would one of the admins like to sync it with the editcopy? Windwend (talk) 22:13, 4 June 2023 (UTC)
I'm happy to help, but I need to learn more. Is there some sort of vetting process to determine what goes into the editcopy? And is there an easy way to sync it other than copying and pasting? Amatulic (talk) 15:30, 5 June 2023 (UTC)
Thanks. I don't have access to the admin view so I don't know how it is done, sorry I can't help directly on this. But I'd imagine there is some kind of "sync with editcopy" button, similar to the "diff with editcopy" button that non-admins have access to. Maybe another admin would be able to teach you how to do it. Windwend (talk) 18:22, 5 June 2023 (UTC)
There isn't any way to sync it besides copy-paste (and looking at the "diff with editcopy" to see the changes), and no vetting process for the editcopy, although it looks like Windwend has been the only one updating it for the most part. –Sonicwavetalk 19:28, 5 June 2023 (UTC)

Yes, "behaviour" is an alternate spelling of "behavior". However as documented at MCW:SPELLING this wiki uses American English for both consistency across articles as well as because that's the default in-game language used. -MarkusRost (talk) 10:20, 22 June 2023 (UTC)

I notice that all the sprites are not loading properly, including block sprites, entity sprites and so on. Does anyone know what has caused this, and how this may be fixed? Windwend (talk) 16:58, 21 June 2023 (UTC)
Correction: Entity sprites seem to be working, but block sprites are not. Take this Silk Touch page for example. My hypothesis is that sprites do not work in wikitables only. But they work in the Blocks template page which is quite weird. Windwend (talk) 17:01, 21 June 2023 (UTC)

Hi, I don't visit this wiki, as I work on another wiki that I'm an admin at. But to report, as I'm not sure if this has been mentioned, I just notice it from my notification that lead me to this page (https://minecraft.fandom.com/wiki/Special:Achievements#category=make-edits), and I'm like I can't read anything until I notice why, it not good in dark mode but yes in light mode. Can this be brought to the admin's attention to fix it?
Just thought to let you know about it. As I don't visit this wiki, but it came on my notification, why I'm here, apologise for it, as I'm not sure how it got on my notification, but I just had to let you know about the theme background issue.

Jack o'lanterns Enchantment conflict of information[]
On the Jack o'lantarn page, under the Enchanting section, it states " Jack o'lanterns can be enchanted with curses using an anvil in all versions before 1.20.[Java Edition only] "
But
Then lower down the page, in the History section on the table for Java Edition it says " Jack o'lanterns can no longer receive curse enchantments through an anvil. " for the 1.13 17w47a version.
Which should mean one of these statements is incorrect or incomplete.

All of this user's edits have introduced broken links, formatting errors, and incorrect information. Most of the edits appear to haphazardly replace words with synonyms. Meeples10 (talk) 00:18, 15 October 2023 (UTC)
I just tried rewriting the contents. I'm sorry to cause troubles, could you tell me how to make proper edits?DressingBlessingDress (talk) 01:01, 15 October 2023 (UTC)
That should probably be made more obvious to people reading this wiki, maybe with a global page header. Meeples10 (talk • contribs) 05:05, 15 October 2023 (UTC)
I might expect the harmless formatting changes, and maybe a bit of the harmful changes, from the visual editor (only for the three edits with the "Visual edit" tag), which I won't blame DressingBlessingDress for. However, I agree with Meeple10's assessment that the edits are mostly harmful. For example, you generally shouldn't be capitalizing the names of items. You can check the capitalization section of the style guide for what should and should not be capitalized. You also shouldn't try to replace in-game names with synonyms. For example, in your edit to Java Edition 1.20, "corresponding" and "unique" might have been okay if those were the terms we used across the rest of the wiki, but "board," "peeled," and "flag" were not as they replaced the actual in-game names of "crafting table" and "slab," "stripped," and "sign," respectively.
As for linking to the forked wiki: that is not allowed per the Forking Policy established by Fandom. We had an announcement, and it ran for its full two weeks (plus 7 hours because I looked at the time stamps incorrectly, plus another minute because I was slow), but that's it.

Approx 11 Vandalism/Spam pages need re-deletion due to database rollback[]
Due to the database rollback, 3 mainspace articles (containing only spam/vandalism) and 8 pages within Category:Pending speedy deletion need re-deletion.
Category:Pending speedy deletion should contain 0 pages and files, and be completely empty. User pages that requested deletion should be deleted, due to author request.
There should be 11 entries in the deletion log within a few minutes of each other, showing all 11 of these pages being removed.
The first three aren't really spam/vandalism. The first would be fine if we normally had "Minecraft [stage] 1.x" as redirects, but we don't, so I'll delete it. The other two are spellings of the sea pickle's proper name ("sea pickle" is a nickname). However, to my knowledge, we do not normally have such things as redirects, and for that reason, I'll delete them.
I'll take a look at the speedy deletion category. Thanks for bringing it to my attention. SLScool 19:28, 26 October 2023 (UTC)

As of April 24th, 2024 the latest edition of Java Edition on the main wiki page is 1.20.2, this is false because 1.20.5 released on the 23rd of April 2024.
Java Edition 1.20.5 needs to be updated with the latest protocol, data version and resource version

Resource: 32
Java Edition 1.20.4 needs to be updated with the latest protocol and data version

Block Savounited1932[]
I am requesting that Savounited1932 be blocked from this wiki permanently for two main reasons. If a permanent block is deemed too much, a month could suffice.
1. Savounited is very trigger happy with reverting and rollbacking edits. An unfortunate amount of the time these edits are constructive, sometimes they are not perfect and need tweaking to be style guide compliant, but Savounited does not improve them, instead simply reverts them and never provides an explanation for the user, who is left clueless as to why all of their edits are being reverted by someone who is seemingly staff. Not biting newcomers is a key policy of any wiki, and not abiding by said policy gives the wiki a very poor impression. If you want people to edit here more, that behavior can't be tolerated.
Here's just a couple edits I found that display what I'm describing:
Savounited has also been reverting talk page messages sent to him that criticise him for posting illegal content.
Notably, this behavior has caused an active editor to leave this wiki, that being HITHITHIT, who cites Savounited's behavior as a reason for leaving. No user's behavior should be causing others to feel the need to leave the site entirely, that needs to be dealt with.
2. Savounited frequently copies from other wikis when making articles, despite knowing full well that this is a violation of the source's copyright, because he had been notified of this before. An example of this is the armadillo scute page. Now, one time of this is okay and an easy mistake to make, but frequently posting illegal content after being told not to is ignoring policy and disruptive.
I understand that this wiki doesn't have much of an admin force, so it's understandable why Savounited's behavior has slipped under the radar and not analysed closely. But on any wiki with an active admin force, this user's behavior would have punished rather quickly.
You may worry that blocking Savounited would be losing a very valuable editor, but I disagree. When he isn't copying illegal content that needs to be deleted, or reverting actually helpful edits that aim to improve the wiki, he's quickly making poor quality pages just for the sake of it, or so it feels like. He creates many new pages but doesn't try to expand them much, leaving them in a really short and outdated form. Minecraft features change rapidly over a couple weeks, so if Savounited has no intention of maintaining these pages that he's quickly creating, the pages could be better off not existing. A reader finding a page with outdated and therefore misleading information is, in my opinion, a lot worse than the reader not finding the page at all. So if what you're losing by blocking Savounited is a lot of outdated pages harming readers, you're not actually losing anything.
Since Savounited isn't an admin (I'm glad), you're not losing someone who is handling vandalism. If you need more people to handle vandalism, the best idea would be to contact fandom staff and see if any of them can provide assistance.
Finally, Savounited has tried to have me blocked for some rather silly reasons that don't pertain this wiki, which is rather ironic and another display of his poor behavior to other users. This does make it look like I'm making this out of revenge, which isn't true, but I suppose nothing I say can stop people thinking that, but I can say that I've planned on writing this since before he tried to get rid of me. – Unsigned comment added by Seven Hundred People at Worcestershire Parkway (talk • contribs). Sign comments with ~~~~
I fully support the request to block Savounited1932 from this wiki. These issues are serious and detrimental to the community. We can't have users being driven away by other users, we can't permit plagiarizing content from anywhere else, and bad articles are a problem too. They ignore warnings about copying content, and they continue to ignore warnings, which shows a blatant disregard for the rules, even if they follow other wiki rules. Given the severity of these issues, I have to take action to protect the integrity and welcoming nature of our wiki. This wiki will remain a place where constructive contributions are valued and editors can collaborate without fear of their work being tossed aside. StuckInAHypickle (talk) 08:13, 19 May 2024 (UTC)
I so glad that Savounited1932 (now called Titancameraisfan14) got blocked from this wiki, he's like a Gen Alpha who has a PC, found the Minecraft Wiki, and somehow became a patroller on this wiki. The reason why I called him a Gen Alpha not only because he likes skibidi toilet but also because his behaviors mentioned above was exactly what a Gen Alpha would do if given the patroller user right (man, our generation is so cooked). In fact, in my opinion, Savounited1932 is even worse than most vandals on this wiki, that's because vandals' edits can be reverted, they can be blocked, and they cannot do anything to stop that. However, a bad patroller can make non-constructive edits without the admins noticing (unless someone pointed it out), that's simply because they assume he/she is a trusted user and therefore does not check him/her. Therefore, I wanted to say that:
Never let a Gen Alpha having the patroller right.
A wiki with good patrollers but have a lot of vandals is better than a wiki with only a few vandals but also with bad patrollers.

So I'm requesting the admins the 1.21 blocks' hardness values on Module:Hardness values since I cannot editing this page. After somewhat a lot of testing on yesterday and today (definitely not looking up to the forked wiki), I've conclude that:
I still haven't test the Winter Drop's blocks just yet, I'll annouce when I done doing so. I hope you add the hardness values of those blocks. Thank you. Brain180, "click here to talk" 09:08, 1 December 2024 (UTC)

Move, merge, and delete files[]
Hey, I wanted to tell that I requested the admins to move, merge, and delete the files that I will show below:
For move, you have to move the files to their indicated file name on their "page", the reason why the files need to be moved is because they all have a bad name. Here are the files that need to be moved:
For delete, the reason why they need to be done so is because they're either a dupe of another file, or other reasons. The files that need to be deleted are:
Also not related, one final thing I have to mention is the fact that there's a donkey image on Template:Entity, which is kinda annoying for me, so I hope you can remove that. Thanks! Brain180, "click here to talk" 20:53, 12 December 2024 (UTC)
I've done all I can. I cannot convert files of one type to another (e.g., WEBP to PNG) just by moving them and I cannot move files to a name that doesn't match their type; because of this, I cannot move the other files. As for Template:Entity: I'm not seeing any donkey image on it. SLScool 22:52, 12 December 2024 (UTC)
Don't worry, I've "reupload" all files (except for one) with different name extension into their own page with the correct name extensions, and I also removed the background, now all you have to do is to merge the remaining files to their own new files. The only one file I did not reupload was "File:Az recorder 20240414 090007 edited.jpg", in which you don't need to change their file extension, just move it to "File:Mobs from trial spawner in trial chambers.jpg". As for Template:Entity, I don't see the donkey image on PC, but I do in my mobile phone, that's strange. Brain180, "click here to talk" 05:39, 13 December 2024 (UTC)
Oh, I forgot to mention, I messed up the name of the files "File:Ominous Trial Spawner (active) JE1 BE1.png.png" and "File:Ominous Vault (active) JE1 BE1.png.png", so you have to move them to! Brain180, "click here to talk" 05:46, 13 December 2024 (UTC)
Hey there, I did not said to delete the file "File:Az recorder 20240414 090007 edited.jpg", I said to move it to "File:Mobs from trial spawner in trial chambers.jpg" since changing the file extension is not that important and it would be completely fine with the ".jpg" extension. Brain180, "click here to talk" 17:55, 13 December 2024 (UTC)
Okay, your job isn't done just yet. So you know, 2 days ago, I uploaded about 40 files about various images of the 1.21 items. Only problem was the images were too small and I didn't really know how to resize an image without losing quality until now. Therefore today, I've resized and "reuploaded" all images (except for the white bundle, which I can't do it now just yet because it was so white that the background remover thought it was a background) by uploaded them with a slightly different name. Your job is to merge these new images with their original corresponding images, the exception is the bundle images, which you should merge their original images with their corresponding new one instead since their new names are better. Also I've "reuploaded" the files: "File:Trial Omen.jpg and "File:Trial spawner.jpg" with "File:Trial Omen.png" and "File:Trial Spawner (active) JE1 BE1.png" respectively, not only bc they have the better name, but also bc their backgrounds were removed. So you also merge the old one with the new one too. Oh and while we here, I wanted to point out that if you wait for a while on the "Crafting" section of the page Smithing Template, you'll see that the material does not match up with the smithing template. that's because the "Bolt Armor Trim Smithing Template" and the "Flow Armor Trim Smithing Template" are not a part of the "Matching Smithing Template", and the "Bolt Armor Trim Smithing Template" and the "Flow Armor Trim Smithing Template" do not have their assigned material ((Block of Copper or Waxed Block of Copper) and Breeze Rod respectively), so you have to fix that too. That's all I wanted you to do (for now), thanks! Brain180, "click here to talk" 14:48, 18 December 2024 (UTC)
OK, I forgot to mention that while not made by me, the file "File:Music Disc Precipice.png" is also too small, so I "reuploaded" with the new "File:Music disc precipice.png", which is the worse name. Therefore you should merge the new file with the old one. Thank you (once again)! Brain180, "click here to talk" 15:11, 18 December 2024 (UTC)
Ummm, I think there's some confusion here. What I meant was to move "<color> Bundle.png" to "<color> Bundle Filled.png" and not the other way around since the file "Bundle.png" looks like this , and the file "Bundle Filled.png" looks like this . I guess it's kinda my fault for not expanding carefully, but this is not the end of the world so just move the files "<color> Bundle.png" back to "<color> Bundle Filled.png" and you're done!

I fixed the two copper blocks on the smithing template article (they were just using the wrong template). The two missing smithing templates, the breeze rod, and anything else missing will first need to be added to Template:ItemSprite. On that page, see if you can find "Edit sprite" under the dropdown. If you can, then you can probably add the images to the spritesheet yourself; if not, then it probably means only admins can do it. SLScool 07:49, 20 December 2024 (UTC)
I didn't see that, so you're probably right, only admins can do it. Also while we here, you need to do these things.
Move the page "File:Orange Bundle Filled Filled.png" to "File:Orange Bundle Filled.png", and delete the file White Bundle.png.
Merge the remaining images (including all of the pottery sherds, banner patterns, armor trims, the music disc creator, pale oak and resin stuffs, and wolf armor) I uploaded into their corresponding original images. Brain180, "click here to talk" 10:53, 20 December 2024 (UTC)
Well, you kinda added the textures on the file "File:ItemCSS.png", but I never asked for that (although I definitely needed that). What I asked was to "Merge the remaining images (including all of the pottery sherds, banner patterns, armor trims, the music disc creator, pale oak and resin stuffs, and wolf armor) I uploaded into their corresponding original images". What I meant by that was to merge the new resized files in the original unresized files so that they have the new resized images but have the name of the original unresized files. So what you need to do now is to first undelete the "banner patterns" image and then do the thing that I told earlier. Brain180, "click here to talk" 06:38, 22 December 2024 (UTC)

Duplicate section in "Enchanting" page[]
The "Enchanting" page has a duplicate "Summary of enchantments by item" section which just contains a part of the first paragraph seen right below.
I come back to that section often whenever I'm enchanting items and it just looks bad so I'm hoping an admin can help with this minor edit. Cyanite15 (talk) 01:10, 18 January 2025 (UTC)
Thanks for pointing that out. I have removed it. SLScool 16:19, 18 January 2025 (UTC)
Stupid page filter[]
I cant make any new pages, i make it all right but it just doesnt allow me. Why add this stupid filter? Are you guys plain old dumb?
What does it say when you try to make the new page? Is there a message of any kind? SLScool 21:18, 10 February 2025 (UTC)
It says ""Hey! Check out Minecraft Wiki:Drafts to find out how to make your article!", theres nothing on the Drafts page. Coolo1212 07:31, 12 February 2025 (UTC)
I tried doing this on my other account and it worked just fine. When you click the Minecraft Wiki:Drafts link, you should see this page on the right. From there, you should be able to replace "YOURARTICLEHERE" with whatever article you want to make, click "MAKE THIS DRAFT!" and make your draft. Where in this process are you having trouble?

Lena Raine wiki defaced[]
The Lena Raine wiki page has been completely covered in inane transphobic dribble and 4chan Bigotry. I attempted to revert the page to a previous version and looking at the change logs this appears to be a relatively common occurrence, however I was unsuccessful. Please forgive my inability to do it my self as I am unfamiliar with how to use and work with the edit system on this wiki and it is 2 in the morning where I am currently. I understand that vandalism is not the highest priority of the moderators yet I hope this overtly hateful behaviour of behalf of users ShartyBrappy123, SigmaOhioOAlgo88, and OpenTTDfan7x2 11x8 is removed as soon as possible.
Thank you for any assistance in this matter, and please have a good day.

Redirect to page blocked[]
hey, so i made a redirect from the page "Ebooks" to "Enchanted Book", and it wont let me proceed because i need to make the draft. i made the draft, and it still wont work. it told me to come here.
heres the error if u need it: Your action has been disallowed by an automated edit filter. A brief description of the matched rule(s) for your action is:
If you believe your edit was constructive, please post a message on the admin noticeboard or notify an admin directly. ReVerseYTReal (talk) 17:33, 15 March 2025 (UTC)
Why do you think Ebooks should redirect to Enchanted Book? I have never heard that name applied to enchanted books, and when I look it up on Google, all I get are Minecraft e-books. Under MCW:REDIRECT, redirects should exist for very common terms that no one would get confused about. SLScool 18:01, 15 March 2025 (UTC)
what do you mean? i hear it everywhere on minecraft. ReVerseYTReal (talk) 19:25, 17 March 2025 (UTC)
Automated Edit Filter Error[]
Lately I've been trying to help improve the Bedrock Edition 1.21.70 when I got this stupid error that read:
Your action has been disallowed by an automated edit filter. A brief description of the matched rule(s) for your action is:
You are attempting to remove a section of this page. As a new user, your action has been disallowed.
If you believe your edit was constructive, please post a message on the admin noticeboard or notify an admin directly.
What does this mean? I literally made my account about 2 years ago, so I'm not sure why it identifies me as a new user.
Your account may be almost two years old, but your first edit on the wiki was just last week and you only had 4 edits under your belt when you tried to edit the article. That sounds pretty new to me. On the other hand, you tried to make the exact same edit just four minutes later, and it worked, so who knows?
You said you "Made [your] edit more simple," but it was identical to the edit you tried to make a few minutes prior. Are you referring to your edit from last week that got reverted? SLScool 21:55, 3 April 2025 (UTC)
A user named MLGGamer2016 vandalised Template: Entity, adding 1026 empty sections to the start of the template, with the section headers each being either a youtube or discord web address. I attempted to revert it myself, but I got denied by the "new users cannot remove a section" filter. The rejection message said to contact an admin. Syrahl696 (talk) 06:22, 30 April 2025 (UTC)

Vandalism on Template:ItemEntity[]
A user named SIN1999 added unrelated promotional messages and Discord/YouTube links to the top of Template:ItemEntity.
Due to the filter (Section removal 2), I was unable to revert the edit myself.
Please investigate and consider reverting the page and warning or blocking the user if appropriate.
Thank you.

I got onto chicken jockey (the page) but as a currently joined user I could not edit it. I was trying to remove vandalism that someone had spammed on that page. Please help :(Therandomestdudeyo (talk)
