Is there any way to easily find such pages, actually? Dhranios (talk) 07:42, 20 May 2019 (UTC)
I'm not experienced in using the "insource" search method. In those cases where it's not feasible to use it, this kind of tasks might need all pages to manually be checked in a predetermined order (for at least some managability). But in this case you might be able to decrease to total count down to just those that are using any of the mentioned templates (use whatlinkshere), if you can't search for related pages. – Jack McKalling [ Book and Quill Diamond Pickaxe ] 13:43, 20 May 2019 (UTC)
Unassigned User-12316399 again, as they're clearly no longer working on this. Dhranios (talk) 07:42, 20 May 2019 (UTC)
I can do usually do this when needed, but I can't edit pages that require admin permissions because I am not an admin. I have also unassigned Dhranios, because he quit working on the Minecraft Wiki and his account has been disabled. Minermatt122514 (talk) 01:17, 25 February 2022 (UTC)
Is there any way to easily find such pages with the interwiki links, actually? Dhranios (talk) 07:42, 20 May 2019 (UTC)
Maybe a bot could aggregate all interwiki links from our mainspace, dump them on a test page on the actual interwiki they point to, and convert them into actual local links. Then you can easily see if they become red. But that's only part of the problem, they also could be checked for relevance (like do they still link to the correct page). I don't know how to do this or if it's possible. If all else fails, one very tedious approach would be combing through mcw:Quick reference page. – Jack McKalling [ Book and Quill Diamond Pickaxe ] 13:43, 20 May 2019 (UTC)
This task has become part of a new project: MCW:VC, which is about cleaning up version articles. The instructions of the project regarding this task has assumed consensus from the discussion, so no need to wait anymore. I updated the task description appropriately. Some progress has already been tracked, but there is a huge amount of pages that still need to be processed and tracked. Not sure if this task is still needed separately, but lets leave it just for now. – Jack McKalling [ Book and Quill Diamond Pickaxe ] 14:31, 13 August 2019 (UTC)
