If you have been wrongfully blocked, please visit an admin's userpage, and send them an email using the left sidebar. 

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 {{delete|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)

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--.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 (talkcontribs) 01:39, 20 July 2013 (UTC).

You can send an email to contact@curse.com t numbermaniac c 01:49, 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 (talkcontribs) 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! :) t numbermaniac c 22:11, 22 July 2013 (UTC)

This is no longer a problem. The bug he was talking about was said to be fixed in 1.6 but was not in the office changelog, even so, he was posting in the the dev version area and not the official release--007a83 (Talk|Contribs) 06:15, 30 July 2013 (UTC)

I think this needs protection again far too much vandalism crap from IPs. t numbermaniac c 08:55, 25 July 2013 (UTC)

Can't add link for a mod

Cannot post my Vietnamese Edit of "Crafting"?

Like the title said, I cannot Save my edit, if I do so then this message will be shown: "An automated filter has detected an unwanted word in your edit. As a new user, your action has been disallowed." Please tell me what did I do wrong. Thank you! - LeonTheIcyWave

One of your words may have been considered by the automatic filter to be a swear word. I should think that restriction goes away after being registered for 4 days. t numbermaniac c 08:40, 28 July 2013 (UTC)

Can't Add Link for Minecon Page

I recently edited the Cape section of the Minecon 2013 section on the Minecon page. However, when I went to edit again, I was denied permission to add a link to the page I was referencing. (This Page: http://help.mojang.com/customer/portal/articles/1246918-minecon-2013)

Thanks, Sequax

Minecon Page: http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/MineCon#2013

You can always add it on the 5th of August and once you've accumulated 10edits. t numbermaniac c 21:52, 1 August 2013 (UTC)

Editcount

I see that many people here are using Kanegasi's editcounter script. I was just wondering if the MediaWiki Editcount extension has been considered as an alternative? It runs from Special Pages and doesn't require the user to configure anything in their own Javascript page. This is not to disrespect the wonderful work Kanegasi has done, it is just a reflection of the fact that many users may not be capable of, nor have the inclination to, edit their own *.js files. To see the MediaWiki Editcount extension in action, have a look at the UESP Wiki's implementation of it. Feel free to look me up there. My username is Daric Gaersmith on that wiki.

If people just want to see their own edit count, they can go to their preferences page. ultradude25Talk

Invalid/illegal advertisement.

Please remove this advertisement as it is endorcing piracy/turns you into a spambot/is a scam.

I don't know exactly how gallerys work, so that may be extremely small. Apearently, according to the terms, it installs some kind of "wonderbar" thingy (not the actual term), so it must be evil. Pokechu22 19:45, 5 August 2013 (UTC)

Admins can't do anything about ads: maybe contact Curse. t numbermaniac c 21:34, 5 August 2013 (UTC)
How? I assume it goes on the curse forums, but would it go under bug reports or where?Pokechu22 21:51, 5 August 2013 (UTC)
Probably send them an email at contact@curse.com. t numbermaniac c 21:57, 5 August 2013 (UTC)
Done, now I'm waiting for a response. Pokechu22 22:05, 5 August 2013 (UTC)
Might be worth contacting Mojang about the site as well, since it appears to violate their Terms of Use. -- Orthotope talk 02:57, 6 August 2013 (UTC)

New user here trying to edit the Hardened Clay page

Hardened Clay has a section under "Obtaining" called "Crafting." As uncolored Hardened Clay can only be obtained by smelting for use as a crafting ingredient, and as the section titled "As a crafting ingredient" gives the exact same information, I felt there was no need for the Crafting sub-section under Obtaining.

However, when I tried to remove the Obtaining/Crafting sub-section, I got a notice saying that as a new user I couldn't do that type of edit and to post here if I thought my edit was constructive. I feel it is, as I was trying to reduce redundancy and avoid confusion. I'd appreciate it if someone could either explain why the redundancy is necessary or edit it out, thanks! --Springacres 04:58, 7 August 2013 (UTC)

The automated filter disallows new users from removing whole sections. The restriction goes away after your account is 4 days old. t numbermaniac c 05:19, 7 August 2013 (UTC)
Fair enough, I can wait that long. Thanks for your prompt reply! --Springacres 06:32, 7 August 2013 (UTC)
