Pocket Edition data values - change of items in light blue category

In Pocket Edition data values, it looks like you added many items to a "Light Blue" category titled "Cannot be obtained no matter what." With the exception of Air, the rest of the items on this page are available in player survival inventory via supplemental apps. I run MCPE-0.11.1 and PocketMine in ios. I survival, I play with Fire, Glowing Obsidian, and Ghasts because of Pocketmine. (This app logs into your local multiplayer world, and the '"fake" user drops items you request in front of you. It works because MCPE does not validate player inventory.) In short, I would like to change these items back to the "Red" category: "Cannot be legitimately obtained. Only available via inventory editors". Thanks. –Preceding unsigned comment was added by Babyrabbit (talkcontribs) at 14:05, 02 July 2015 (UTC). Please sign your posts with ~~~~

Done. I guess I figured the Pocket Edition has those IDs removed like the PC edition. If you need to set any to the red case in the future, use the keyword "give", which adds the red category. KnightMiner 15:12, 2 July 2015 (UTC)

Bot request

Would you be able to use your bot to change all references to 0.12.0 in the history section to 0.12.1? Many thanks. GoandgooTalk

Would you be able to fix all double redirects and make all pages that link to End Portal (block) link to End Portal Frame? GoandgooTalk

 Done Most of the links were removed, though I ignored user and talk pages, along with any translation pages the bot could not handle easily. KnightMiner 21:54, 7 August 2015 (UTC)

Could you remove the Rewritten entity category from pages now that the Entity sub-project is complete? GoandgooTalk

 Done again. Well, I guess its time to think of more categories to rewrite, as only one is left. KnightMiner 14:43, 14 August 2015 (UTC)

Could you fix all double redirects? Thanks. GoandgooTalk

help with WhatLinksHere

See: http://minecraft.gamepedia.com/index.php?title=Special:WhatLinksHere/Technical_blocks&limit=500

For a lot of these pages, I cannot for the life of me find where the link to Technical blocks is supposed to be, for instance in the Czech, Icelandic or Hebrew pages, or even in {{Blocks}}. Do you have any insight into this? – Sealbudsman (Aaron) SealbudsmanFace T/C 16:14, 14 August 2015 (UTC)

Site cache it seems, between template cache and pages linking the former redirects. I sent my bot to poke all the pages, so it should be accurate now. KnightMiner 17:41, 14 August 2015 (UTC)
Oh nice, thanks. – Sealbudsman (Aaron) SealbudsmanFace T/C 18:04, 14 August 2015 (UTC)

Water Bottle Arrows

Water Bottle Arrows aren't fake. There are some videos about them, and if you say /give <player> water_bottle_arrow it works.

173.196.222.4 13:27, 2 September 2015 (UTC)

Doesn't work in snapshots 15w36b or 15w31c. If there is a snapshot it can be confirmed to work in, that would be of interest in the History section of the Arrow page, but a short-lived, removed feature doesn't warrant having its own article. -- Orthotopetalk 16:06, 2 September 2015 (UTC)
You are most likely thinking of the arrow of splashing, which is obtained by the ID name "tipped_arrow" (without any affects applied).
In the future, please actually test things yourself in the latest snapshot before adding the information to articles KnightMiner 22:48, 2 September 2015 (UTC)

0.12.1 history things

Can you use your bot to convert all the history sections for 0.12.1 into the PE Alpha part as the update was just released on Amazon, as shown here. Thanks. --MarioProtIV (talk) 22:41, 4 September 2015 (UTC)

Bot Request (not to be confused with the second nonarchived topic on the list)

I request for an  Agree tag to be put on all of the proposed splits and proposed merges that I made in talk pages. Boorider7 (talk) 21:03, 13 September 2015 (UTC)

It is way to complicated to detect whether a discussion is a proposal or not (bots run mainly on find and replace or direct adding of text, and in neither case would it really know if a discussion was a merge discussion or just someone agreeing with another user).
Also, that template is hardly required to be used, so there is no real need to add it to a bunch of archived discussions, especially when the main point is to make it easier to see the result (which is not required on closed topics as much). KnightMiner 21:13, 13 September 2015 (UTC)

trying to work on liquids

note sure that you will see my response on the liquids talk page so i duplicate it here -- KnightMiner - I did hours of research on this subject and then hours more to update the page. I have mentioned in comments that this is a work in progress .. I save changes in small chances to be able to evaluate the page against the related pages of Water and Lava etc.

So please use the Talk page to express your views on my work rather than just blowing it away. IF you do not want my input lock the wiki from editing and i will go back to being a read-only user. Bytebasher (talk) 15:38, 23 September 2015 (UTC)

@Bytebasher: I already stated on your talk page why the information I removed did not belong. Most of it was redundant to previous paragraphs, irrelevant tutorial, or belonged on another page such as lava or water, and adding "hey, this is incomplete" notes is just bad, especially if you sign them.
Also, a complete article should never change to a WIP page unless there are major changes in game. If you want to make a rewrite of a page over time, start my writing it in your user space then merge the changes upon completion.
Lastly, if you are just evaluating it, use the show preview button, there is no need to make 17 revisions to adjust four paragraphs. KnightMiner 21:30, 23 September 2015 (UTC)

MinecraftEdu

Recently you have moved the MinecraftEdu and TeacherGaming pages back to my userspace and have reverted my edits linking to the pages saying that, "This is not an official mojang product, thus it does not belong in the mainspace." You are wrong on this, as MinecraftEdu is official, as it is licensed and supported by Mojang. This is simaller to Minecraft: Story Mode which is developed by Telltale Games and lisenced by a Mojang, MinecraftEdu is being developed by TeacherGaming and is lisenced by Mojang. This is the same case for all of the official Minecraft merchandise. The Jinx merchandise, Think Geek merchandise, Mattel merchandise, Threadless merchandise, LEGO Minecraft, and the Scholastic Minecraft books are all licensed and supported by Mojang and made by the respective companies. If you do not believe me on this (you could have checked the references on the page that clearly states the product is official multiple times) you can check here on a Mojang page. Also if you believe that information is false, please just check to make sure that this is truly the case before editing and moving multiple pages. Wolffillms (talk) 21:03, 14 October 2015 (UTC)
