Minecraft mess

So... what is going to happen to this template? It's going to need a whole rewrite. – NixinovaGrid Book and Quill Grid Diamond Pickaxe Grid Map • 04:31, 13 June 2017 (UTC)

I guess, the template might have to look like this:
Template example
Minecraft Alpha
0.1.0 Added grass blocks.
Minecraft Release
1.0 Build 1 Grass block can now be used to tame a pig.
Items can now be stacked up to 256.
Minecraft Upcoming
1.3 Fire now turn grass block into a dirt.
Java Edition Pre-classic
Pre 0.0.0 The grass block was one of the first two blocks in Minecraft: Java Edition, along with cobblestone.
The same top texture was used on all six sides of grass blocks, resulting in "grass cubes".
Java Edition Classic
0.27 SURVIVAL TEST 12 Sheep would eat grass to regrow wool on their bodies, reverting the block to dirt. Often, the grass would regrow just as quickly as sheep would eat it.
Java Edition Indev
December 23, 2009 With the introduction of dynamic lighting, grass was now able to grow in more dimly-lit areas, not having to be fully lit by the sun.
Java Edition Infdev
February 30, 2017 Infinite worlds now contains grass block.
Java Edition Alpha
1.0.4 With the introduction of snowfall in Winter Mode worlds, grass block side textures would turn snowy-colored when the block was under snow layers.
Java Edition Beta
1.5 The grass texture around the sides was given the same biome-dependent hue as the top texture, when in Fancy Graphics mode.
Java Edition
1.0.0 Beta 1.9-pre4 Grass blocks first became obtainable in Survival mode through use of the Silk Touch enchantment, introduced with the new enchanting system.
Beta 1.9-pre5 The top textures of grass and snowy grass were slightly changed, to look more fitting with standard biomes.
Beta 1.9-pre6 The side texture was slightly changed.
? Slabs were changed so that they no longer reverted grass blocks beneath them to dirt, allowing grass to spread to and from underneath.
Java Edition Upcoming
1.14 Grass block removed.
Console Edition
TU1 CU1 1.0 Patch 1 Patch 1 Added grass blocks.
Realms
1.0.0 Realms now require a grass block.
Education Edition Alpha
0.16.0 Build 1 Added grass blocks.
Education Edition
1.0.1 Grass blocks are now used to punish students.
I also added "Education Edition" to see what it would looked like in the future. – ItsPlantseed|⟩ 06:30, 13 June 2017 (UTC)
Something like that, but Console Edition is being split into Minecraft and PS Editions and I dont wanna be punished by a grass block :(NixinovaGrid Book and Quill Grid Diamond Pickaxe Grid Map • 06:46, 13 June 2017 (UTC)
Console edition will continue to exist on PS4 and older console. Current Xbox One and Switch players will be able to keep the current console versions, but they won't be sold anymore on the Xbox/Nintendo stores. It's unclear if these two version will continue to get updates along PS4/older consoles, but I'm quite positive they will.
IMHO Minecraft - Minecraft: Java Edition - Minecraft: Console Edition is fine --Capopanzone (talk) 09:47, 13 June 2017 (UTC)
A while ago, I was experimenting on my sandbox with placing coloured edition rows to make the history table clearer for users. I guess it could be adapted for the new naming scheme. GoandgooTalk

I've updated these tables on my sandbox with the potential new naming scheme, and I've got two versions - one with increased header font size and one with normal header font size. Please provide opinions. GoandgooTalk

I like test 1, with the slightly bigger headers. Either way is good though. The colors look nice in my opinion. Header names too. Does it auto-sort the things to the right place in the table, or does it have to be put in that order? – Sealbudsman talk/contr 14:28, 13 June 2017 (UTC)
Auto-sort is a good move, in my opinion Minecraft→Java Edition→Console Edition is better than Java Edition→Minecraft→Console Edition, but I just created the "all color" version of the table, for comparison you can find it on my sandbox page. – ItsPlantseed|⟩ 02:49, 14 June 2017 (UTC)
I prefer the colour only in the header as it otherwise seems to cluttered to me. Regarding auto sort, I don't know how this would be done (I did it manually) but I guess KnightMiner has implied below it could be possible. I wouldn't be opposed to keeping Java Edition at the top either as it is the oldest section and generally the largest. GoandgooTalk

I also prefer test 1, but I think to header font should be bigger, and I think they should all be the same color to promote the notion of equivalent importance. Won't we need a PlayStation Edition section too? – Auldrick (talk · contribs) 12:16, 17 June 2017 (UTC)
Once the template is updated, we may want a bot. Can Majr or KnightMiner do this. The BlobsPaper 14:04, 13 June 2017 (UTC)
I admittedly have not been very active lately, so I am not sure when I would be able to make any changes. I only just happened to log on today to see this message. I am sure it would be possible for me to write something to transfer the header names over, but wanting to reorder them as well makes things a bit messy. (I personally would keep the Java Edition on top since its the oldest and has the most headers, but I guess the PE/Win10 version (what are we going to call that anyways?) is the main version now).

Holy Alisa. What a big template. I think we should consider placing all stuff for Java/PC edition, unified portable edition and old console editions into three separate columns. This change would allow for a proper chronological scale and for easy comparison of a single object’s histories in different editions. — NickTheRed37 (talk) 14:40, 16 June 2017 (UTC)
Using columns would actually lead to the table becoming longer, because the current version column already takes a lot of space and then having 3 versions side by side would actually lead to six columns side by side. With the Gamepedia sidebar visible for most users and also many users using the wiki on smaller devices (e.g. tablets), this really isn't a viable alternative. GoandgooTalk
