I wish to edit this page, in order to add something to the first paragraph. I wish to add the fact that Minecraft was the winner of the Time Magazine's Game of the Year award in 2011^[1]. Duckology (talk) 01:30, 10 November 2016 (UTC)

I propose to merge Minecraft: Educational Edition into Minecraft#Minecraft: Education Edition because they are about the same subject and the the section about Minecraft:Education Edition has better sourcing here.

The Totem Of Undying was added as a feature in Minecraft long after Minecraft was first released. The Totem of Undying can prevent a player from a possible death. However, if you're in Survival Mode, and you risk yourself whilst holding a Totem of Undying, there is a chance the Totem will not save your life. You can get a Totem of Undying by killing an Evoker. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kmsambodiac (talk • contribs) 09:07, 28 January 2017 (UTC)

http://www.pocketgamer.co.uk/r/DS/DScraft+(Minecraft+DS)/feature.asp?c=32923 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.189.239.237 (talk) 16:20, 23 February 2017 (UTC)

It would have to get covered by reliable sources first. Otherwise, the page linked would fail WP:NOTGUIDE as it only has instructions. There's a lot of game guide-y material out there and we almost never include it. —  HELLKNOWZ  ▎TALK 20:52, 23 February 2017 (UTC)

Pocket Gamer is a reliable source though, I just checked the list. TheJoebro64 talk 06:36, 24 February 2017 (UTC)

I mean sources that give significance to this particular content (i.e., DScraft, which is a non-official free alpha version of Minecraft ported to DS). There are hundreds if not thousands of articles detailing various mods, ports and other projects. —  HELLKNOWZ  ▎TALK 13:00, 24 February 2017 (UTC)

Under the Pocket Edition section of the page in the very last sentence, it's mentioned that the Windows Phone is no longer supported. However, that statement is misleading as only Windows Phone 8.1 support was dropped. The Windows Phone 10 version is still receiving and will continue to receive updates according to: the Windows Store^[1] from which the latest version can be downloaded for Windows Phone 10, an official blog post^[2], and a Minecraft Staff member^[3] and employee of Microsoft on the Minecraft feedback website. The statement in question should be changed to say that Windows Phone 8.1 support in specific was dropped, and not Windows Phone support as a whole. Farquall (talk) 01:22, 22 March 2017 (UTC)

Doing a bit more research, it seems most all news articles on the topic (including the Ars Technica^[4] source cited in the page) are basing the claim that Windows Phone is no longer supported on the same anonymous tip reported in a Windows Central article^[5], and not an public official source or statement. Public official sources and statements say Windows 10 mobile will continue to receive updates, and that Windows Phone 8/8.1 is no longer supported. Farquall (talk) 03:48, 22 March 2017 (UTC)

So apparently the Android version came out a month before the PC edition. 212.67.123.242 (talk) 11:24, 22 March 2017 (UTC)

Yes, from what I gathered from this article itself, the full version for PC was released on 18 November 2011, after the Android version. What came out on 17 May 2009 was the development release. Then the game entered beta testing phase on 20 December 2010 and stayed like that till 18 November 2011. So, no, it's not actually "terribly incorrect". -- ChamithN (talk) 11:41, 22 March 2017 (UTC)

Yeah, the development section explains the game's release timeline. The infobox only lists the full version releases. —  HELLKNOWZ  ▎TALK 13:29, 22 March 2017 (UTC)

@Mlpearc:, you may be confused about what WP:NOT#CRYSTAL is to prevent. It would be a violation of CRYSTAL to speculate that "Minecraft 2" is coming in the future, for example. However, when a company in an official capacity and in a manner that meets WP:V has said they will be releasing a version of an existing game for a new platform with an anticipated release year, that's completely fine. That's how most articles on upcoming events like film, television shows, sporting events, elections, and the like work. Should plans change from that official announcement, we adjust appropriately. --MASEM (t) 00:02, 22 March 2017 (UTC)

@Masem and Mlpearc: Also, it isn't much speculation either. On the official Nintendo website, there is a listing for Minecraft^[1] on the Switch as well as Minecraft Story Mode - The Complete Adventure^[2] for the Switch. In the "Console" section under "Release," it does make sense to leave out the Switch version since it has not been released; however, if the Switch version is left out of the article, why is it still listed under Platforms in the infobox? No dates have been given yet, besides it scheduled for sometime in 2017. I'm slightly new to Wikipedia so forgive me if I wasn't supposed to cite or link to websites/articles in talk pages. TheAnonymousNerd (talk) 00:35, 22 March 2017 (UTC)

@Masem and TheAnonymousNerd: Thank you. - Mlpearc (open channel) 00:50, 22 March 2017 (UTC)

All officially announced platforms go in the infobox, no matter if it hasn't been released yet, or even given a date. ~ Dissident93 ^(talk) 20:46, 22 March 2017 (UTC)

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered.

The biography that narrates Persson's development of minecraft should be added to the cultural impact section. As an employee of the publisher, I have an obvious conflict of interest. Below is my suggestion:

Aside from numerous books focused on the games content, the game has also inspired the experienced journalists Daniel Goldberg and Linus Larsson to write a biographical history following Persson's development of the game, titled Minecraft.^[2] Ssintern (talk) 14:54, 31 May 2017 (UTC)

• Shouldn't this be used as a source instead of a generic blurb about biography being written? ~ Dissident93 ^(talk) 17:31, 31 May 2017 (UTC)
  • Yeah, that's my thinking as well -- if it's reliable and reputable, just use it as a source here and at Persson's page. —  HELLKNOWZ  ▎TALK 20:12, 31 May 2017 (UTC)
    • Another employee here--somehow we missed it in the bibliography, that sounds good, though, thanks! Mehmuffin (talk) 17:09, 1 June 2017 (UTC)

A follow-up to my previous edit request. I still believe there is sufficient reason to include mention of the recent Minecraft Discovery Update in this article. The reason I am coming to the talk page for this is because I do not know how I would write the article in a way that meets guidelines. Aside from that, the references exist, ruling out the use of a YouTube trailer as one (experience shows YouTube videos produce independent sources, which to some users does not meet guidelines.) jd22292 (Jalen D. Folf) 17:43, 22 June 2017 (UTC)

Please unprotect the Minecraft page. Its annoying to not be able to edit it and plus its unnecessary because people can just revert vandalism themselves.

-UltraChas

No. The page is protected because the vandalism is constant and high level, which takes time away from volunteers who are patrolling and reverting. You can edit Wikipedia and work to become autoconfirmed if you want to edit semi-protected articles. -- ferret (talk) 19:39, 7 August 2018 (UTC)

@UltraChas: Or, you can request changes to be made on this talk page. You can preface your proposal with the tag {{edit semi-protected}} to signal other editors that you are proposing a change. ~Anachronist (talk) 19:52, 7 August 2018 (UTC)

It's unnecessary to protect this page because contributors can simply revert vandalism themselves. I think that this page along with the Roblox page should be unprotected or at least changed to semi-protected as contributors can revert vandalism themelves and then Wikipedia admins can block vandals.

UltraChas (talk) 19:57, 9 August 2018 (UTC)

@UltraChas: Please don't talk condescendingly to people who are more experienced than you, especially if they're an admin. When you made your 7:49 UTC edit, you had only just become autoconfirmed, meaning your original claim at 15:32, 7 August 2018 was incorrect. Please see WP:PROTECTION, and note the different colours of padlocks and the levels they mean.

Why is there no mention of the popular multiplayer servers such as Hypixel or even popular multiplayer games like Bedwars??? Why is the Hypixel Wikipedia article repeatedly deleted as "not notable"??? They had 12 Million unique logins in the summer of 2017 (https://twitter.com/hypixelnetwork/status/902523424924459008?lang=en), that is far from "not notable".

Sorry, I am new to Wikipedia and don't fully grasp it yet. I was more or less asking if reliable sources was the only information missing, as I would like to make the change. Hookje (talk) 19:09, 3 March 2019 (UTC)

(edit conflict) Depends. It depends on how much of it there is and what sort of articles cover it. A list of game's blocks -- very likely not. Articles that cover update news -- likely not. Discussion of game's features with a mention -- probably not. A look at how the game uses redstone logic blocks -- may be. An article about how command blocks make custom maps -- likely. The point here is to include material proportional to its significance. It's hard to say without seeing the source first. Minecraft, as a game, is a very prominent subject with lots of sources. This means you see disproportionately many mentions of trivial details. WP:WAF advises to consider real-world implications and MOS:VG lists all the ways we shouldn't stray into details. We could theoretically source a lot, but we have to stop somewhere. Individual blocks is likely the limit, unless there really is significant sourcing. —  HELLKNOWZ   ▎TALK 19:12, 3 March 2019 (UTC)

Thank you for the input, I will review related sources and determine if its importance is notable. I will add further on this within 7 days and hopefully get feedback. A note to add: the command block, although an individual block is a part of the redstone system as a whole. I'd like to highlight on "how the game uses redstone logic blocks" and "how command blocks make custom maps" as these two features continue to have an impact of significance on the game.

They want to link Ghast DAB page to Minecraft. But that fails WP:DABMENTION. So they want a mention of "ghast" added to Minecraft. Which would fail MOS:VG, because we would need to explain it and we don't go into such gameplay detail. —  HELLKNOWZ   ▎TALK 11:57, 3 March 2019 (UTC)

I would consider Ghast to be notable and would request Ghast to included, linked to Ghast (disambiguation), with a brief description of Ghast, such as "a weeping flying mob found in the nether" or something similar, and a picture to give context and meaning to the reader to relate the description and picture.

If you can't do that the edit request changes to outright remove the mention of the nether at all.

Minceraft is Minecraft easter egg. Please create easter egg section in Minecraft article and redirect Minceraft there.

19:57, 10 July 2019 (UTC)

• While it is an easter egg in the game, for Wikipedia purposes it's simply a misspelling that perhaps a child would be likely to make, and thus it should serve as a non-sectional redirect. Also, you shouldn't be using a table as a signature. I'm pretty sure that's not even allowed by guidelines either. ~ Dissident93 ^(talk) 20:06, 10 July 2019 (UTC)
• I would not necessarily oppose the creation of such a section if reliable sources exist for them that don't require original research and they can be treated encyclopedically, nor would I oppose a sectional redirect of the word to that section. (If, again, reliable sufficient-quality sources exist for the easter egg and it's not just material for Wikia.) That said, you seem to be fully able to make such a section yourself, and I agree in insisting you change your signature right now. See mine, for example. – John M Wolfson (talk • contribs) 06:23, 13 July 2019 (UTC)

• Looking on Google, there don't appear to be any non-Wiki/non-forum sources for easter eggs, so they should not be added to the article and the status quo should stay for now. – John M Wolfson (talk • contribs) 06:26, 13 July 2019 (UTC)

Wikipedia uses reliable sources for content. Only material directly verifiable is included. Whether something is worth saying is decided by whether reliable sources have given it sufficient attention. In case of extraordinary claims and wording ("best", "all people", "pure", etc.), there needs to be equally extraordinary sourcing. In almost all cases, there isn't. At best, several sources may say something like "it is best", but we would still include this as "Sources A, B, and C said it was best" and not a general statement. —  HELLKNOWZ   ▎TALK 16:46, 21 July 2019 (UTC)

Yes. Check this archived link to see the difference that we are talking about. And now that I think more about it, wasn't there some semi-recent drama regarding the Wiki's move to another domain or something? That could probably explain the difference in "officialness" here. ~ Dissident93 ^(talk) 22:35, 26 July 2019 (UTC)

• The wiki hasn't been downgraded at all and Mojang themselves still call the wiki official. The website probably just doesn't have space for a separate one-item official pages section, or that page may just want to list mojang-run information. That archive link has the same issue: the forums aren't official yet they're just put in that section because there's no point creating one-item sections.  Nixinova  T  C  22:40, 26 July 2019 (UTC)

@Eik Corell: Please let me show you this quote from your link article: "(This policy of no original research does not apply to talk pages and other pages which evaluate article content and sources, such as deletion discussions or policy noticeboards.)" This here is a talk page and we are evaluating the reliable of different primary sources (https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/help/ versus the official wiki badge). The badge is also not user-generated but added by Gamepedia staff who are one side of the contract. So either a) the ended their contract with Gamepedia without telling the other party (unlikely) or b) the first mentioned source is outdated and not very reliable as stated on the researched quote. MarkusRost (talk) 12:28, 27 July 2019 (UTC)

Researching something on a talk page does not change the policy on sourcing in the article. "Proof" is not the same as verifiability. —  HELLKNOWZ   ▎TALK 12:48, 27 July 2019 (UTC)

I'm not an expert on all the WP policies, but isn't the minecraft.net help page a primary source in the same way the badge on the wiki site is? So that policy would render that source as invalid as well. MarkusRost (talk) 14:44, 27 July 2019 (UTC)

The minecraft.net site is a primary source, yes. That doesn't make it an "invalid" source. No primary source is an invalid source. We use primary sources all the time to state what a subject says about itself.

The Minecraft Wiki isn't a primary source, it's a self-published source because it's an open wiki consisting entirely of user-generated content (I am active there, and I can attest that it receives misinformed or vandal edits often, just like Wikipedia). As such, isn't considered a reliable source for the purposes of verifying claims about Minecraft. That has nothing to do with it being "official".

As to whether it is (still) official, we have evidence posted by a Minecraft Wiki admin (FVbico) that contradicts what we see on the minecraft.net page, so I'd say it's uncertain, and therefore this article shouldn't say anything one way or another about the Minecraft Wiki being official. ~Anachronist (talk) 15:07, 27 July 2019 (UTC)

Along this vein, it's important to note that we've simply changed it to say "Gamepedia". It wasn't labelled "Unofficial" here. This is probably the best scenario we can work out until Minecraft.net clarifies officialness. It's not false, at the very least. -- ferret (talk) 16:15, 27 July 2019 (UTC)

There's a massive difference between vandals editing articles and Gamepedia staff with a contract marking a wiki as official. Noone can edit the official badge other than Gamepedia staff.  Nixinova  T  C  19:16, 27 July 2019 (UTC)

The Bedrock Edition of Minecraft is very imprecisely described. The article lists no version history and there is no reference to another page, while there were 0.0.1-0.16.0 Alpha Versions and releases from 1.0 to 1.12.1 so far, with 1.13 being scheduled to release soon.

The talk header lists this page as being of vital importance to everyday life. Why is this? It's a video game article. Jeb³_{Talk at me here}^{What I've Done} 19:49, 4 November 2019 (UTC)

It is the best-selling video game of all time. It has basically spawned a cultural phenomena. It even has its own convention. Films and books have been made about it. And as for being a video game, the industry has earned more revenue than movie and music combined. And Minecraft is prominent on all 3 segments - PC, console and mobile. —  HELLKNOWZ   ▎TALK 19:58, 4 November 2019 (UTC)

(edit conflict)Well, let's set aside for a second the idea that a video game just couldn't POSSIBLY be a vital article on it's own, despite Level 5 having a sub-category for it. Minecraft is the single best selling video game of all time currently. It's influence has been far and wide on the industry, spawned an entire franchise, merchandise in every corner, multiple spin offs, novels, an upcoming film, inclusion in the Smithsonian American Art Museum, academic research and use in education.... what does a video game need to do to be worthy of the level 5 vital list covering topics that should be brought to a featured status? -- ferret (talk) 20:05, 4 November 2019 (UTC)

Are there any secondary source that cover these though? Anyone can write a book and self-publish it. That doesn't mean they are significant enough to be included in the article.

 Nixinova  T  C  03:13, 5 November 2019 (UTC)

GoNintendo is considered unreliable per WP:VG/RS, and there are no discussions about Neowin's reliability (could be, but also could be not). The authors may be notable, but that does not mean any work they produce is automatically the same. Due to this, I'm removing it from the article until better sources for the books can be found. ~ Dissident93 ^(talk) 22:26, 14 November 2019 (UTC)

We have no notability guideline that requires secondary sources for specific relevant content within an existing topic. See WP:NNC. The fact remains that there are official, Mojang-approved novels in existence, some written by notable authors, therefore briefly listing them is encyclopedically relevant information. This isn't fancruft or trivia. They may not be notable, but they are noteworthy. On that basis I am restoring the section. ~Anachronist (talk) 22:36, 14 November 2019 (UTC)

Some sources The Book Seller, NY Times, NPR. While these are for The Island, this from Pub Weekly hit on the other 3. The first link I give gives sufficient context that any other Minecraft book out of Del Ray should be documented to "complete" the list.

What we don't want is fan-books that are published by self-publishing services Amazon and others offers. Roblox suffers from this greatly, I don't know if there are Minecraft equipvalents. Just because it can be found on a major retailer doesn't make it notable. We want something like the news about a publishing deal to "seed" the acceptability of the list. --Masem (t) 22:43, 14 November 2019 (UTC)

@Anachronist: "We have no notability guideline that requires secondary sources for specific relevant content within an existing topic." Really? Then what's stopping fanfics and other things from being added by using the same logic you presented? WP:N goes for notability, not noteworthiness, and thus should still apply to this stuff, even if the authors are notable. Thankfully, Masem found a few sources for them, so they can go back into the article. ~ Dissident93 ^(talk) 20:19, 15 November 2019 (UTC)

@Dissident93: Yes, really. I cited the relevant guideline: WP:NNC, which is part of WP:N, and makes the distinction between notable article topics and noteworthy article content. ~Anachronist (talk) 22:32, 15 November 2019 (UTC)

i think it is notable to say that instead of "the nether can be used to move great distances" to just say 8 times faster because 8 blocks in the nether are 1 block in the overworld Leandrodifelice (talk) 22:49, 23 November 2019 (UTC)

 Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. – Jonesey95 (talk) 01:47, 24 November 2019 (UTC)

The source cited for the current text isn't all that great. It's a brief newsblog post that only parrots a preview of the Nether from a blog post by Notch. That 2010 PC mag source hadn't actually playtested the Nether in Mineraft. There are multiple published guidebooks, from publishers like Simon and Schuster and Penguin, that verify the 8:1 ratio.

Whether it's better to say "can be used to travel great distances in the overworld" or "can be used for traveling, with one block in the Nether equal to eight blocks in the Overworld" I can't say. Depends on how much detail we want ,but good sources for it do exist. --Dennis Bratland (talk) 02:25, 24 November 2019 (UTC)

MOS:INTRO is pretty emphatic that the lead text should prioritize emphasis based on importance. Per MOS:LEADREL: "emphasis given to material should reflect its relative importance to the subject." The first paragraph should "identify the topic, establish context, and explain why the topic is notable, all of which should be established in the first sentences." That means best selling game ever belongs in the first sentences, not the tenth sentence, halfway through the second paragraph.

MOS:BODY does not say the order of the sections below should match the lead, and in fact says it varies depending on subject, there being no rule for all articles.

Most featured articles follow this practice. Pick any example: Las Meninas, Buckingham Palace, Final Fantasy X, D. B. Cooper. It's clear there are a number of FAs that have been force-fitted into this pattern, resulting in examples like E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial and Jaws (film), that digress on a lot of plot summaries, production details, credits and such, before they get around to mentioning their historically great commercial success and influence. Why would anyone want that? It's a disservice to the reader and breaks basic MOS guidelines out of an obsession with consistency. --Dennis Bratland (talk) 22:50, 21 November 2019 (UTC)

I agree that a lot of FA tend to fit into a template-like mold, but it's generally good editing practice to follow the TOC order, even if the MOS doesn't explicitly say so. But anyways, the second sentence should not list the game's sales and player count over explaining what the game even is and why/how it reached these figures in the first place. I've never seen a game article lead formatted like this, so I think a discussion for these changes is warranted. ~ Dissident93 ^(talk) 23:00, 21 November 2019 (UTC)

The MOS does explicitly say so. It says explicitly that the most important facts about the topic should get the most emphasis. It says the reason a topic is notable should be stated in the first sentences, not the last. Moving something to the top increases emphasis. Moving it down de-emphasizes it. Moving it to the very end says it is the least important fact in the lead. Which is nonsense, in this case.

Taking the most important fact about this particlar game -- it's overwhelming popularity -- and de-emphasizing it is a direct contradiction of MOS guidelines. Even if all other game articles are formatted like this, and even if a WikiProject had their own conventions saying to order the lead to match the body, that doesn't trump a guideline. Guidelines take precedence over local consensus like Project-level conventions. Only policy trumps guidelines.

Guidelines can be ignored if there is strong local consensus, and a good reason. But there is no good reason. "Let's make all these articles look the same" is not a good reason. Consistency across articles is nice, and a goal, among many goals, but it's not the most important goal, and definitely not at the expense of flouting such basic guidelines. The idea that trivia like the peculiarities of the Java Edition or the exact difference between survival and creative mode is more important than the status as the top selling game of all time is silly. --Dennis Bratland (talk) 00:28, 22 November 2019 (UTC)

Pinging for their input: @Ferret, Lordtobi, Sergecross73, and Popcornduff: ~ Dissident93 ^(talk) 03:25, 24 November 2019 (UTC)

What an oddly specific subset of the editors who have recently worked on the article or commented on the talk page. Can I ping all my friends too? Seems like canvassing. --Dennis Bratland (talk) 04:20, 24 November 2019 (UTC)

Ferret and Sergecross are both admins, and Lordtobi and Popcornduff are editors I can rely on to help settle a debate one way or the other. All four are very active and established WP:VG members, I simply pinged them here instead of creating a WT:VG post (that would just link back here anyway) out of laziness. But if you want to ping others to help settle this as well, then you are more than welcome too. Or if you still prefer, I can create the WT:VG post to get even more editors involved. ~ Dissident93 ^(talk) 05:02, 24 November 2019 (UTC)

Wikipedia has over 1,000 admins. Merely requesting an admin isn't hard. But you decided to hand pick two specific ones, out of many. And two other editors that you can 'rely' on. Sure. Perfectly normal and in no way suspicious. Would I be wrong in guessing four out of four will agree with you 100%? Perhaps only three out of four? Would an uninvolved observer consider such an outcome fair?

I'd suggest if any of them come here, they realize that their participation is skunked because it's an obvious canvassing violation. Many editors are watching Minecraft. Apparently 1,074 editors have it on their watch list. Why not let any of them who wish to participate do so, organically? Or follow the RfC process, with a neutrally worded question, and a broad, unbiased notification process? I'm actually thinking that since more than one WikiProject seems to follow a convention that flies int he face of MOS:INTRO, we need a broad RfC to either weaken the MOS:INTRO guidelines, or nullify such local consensus, per the usual precedence of guidelines over project conventions.

But this thing that you're doing now? No. Just no. I highly suggest you go and canvass no more. --Dennis Bratland (talk) 05:14, 24 November 2019 (UTC)

No issue with current lead. Simply don't feel that strongly about it. I feel the entire conversation on both sides misses the point though: MOS aside, what IS important to have in the lead? Regardless of the order, do we have all the top facts currently? Besides that, there's two procedural issues here: We don't "keeping proposed changes until consensus is reached", not how BRD works, please keep that in mind in future... And secondly, this article is heavily watched by WP:VG editors and many others. That no one else has reverted again after several days signals to me a silent consensus. -- ferret (talk) 14:06, 24 November 2019 (UTC)

Never claimed to be following the suggested process at WP:BRD. Since BRD is not an excuse to edit war, perhaps the person who began the edit war should answer complaints of not following BRD. My edit summary was simply that when you edit war over formatting or style, let alone content, neither side can claim the high ground. Keeping old version until consensus is reached is equally facile to keeping changes until consensus is reached. Each is the mirror of the other. If you disapprove of edit warring, the zero revert rule is your only sound option.

Reverting a dozen constructive edits when all you disagree with is the order facts appear in the lead hardly puts one on the high ground either.

Your main point is well taken. Which facts belong in the lead and in what order varies by topic. Given the info box as a quick reference, a cookie cutter lead template is even less justified. Dennis Bratland (talk) 16:42, 24 November 2019 (UTC)

Despite being listed as a separate Game Mode in the World Generation Options, the Hardcore mode is not an actual Game Mode. Hardcore is managed by setting the hardcore flag in the config file (as of 1.3.1) to true, thus it is possible to play Hardcore while in Creative Mode. Selacos (talk) 17:10, 25 October 2019 (UTC)

For all intents and purposes it is a game mode and that is a needless distinction to make.  Nixinova  T  C  00:42, 26 October 2019 (UTC)

Nub. Hardcore is not a true gamemode. Gamemodes are specific to the player, hardcore is tied to the world. Gamemodes are changed using /gamemode, hardcore is not. List it under Survival. Selacos is correct. --BEANS X2 (talk) 17:11, 28 November 2019 (UTC)

Why are you calling me a nub? On the Minecraft Wiki (which I'm an admin on) we would make these distinctions but on Wikipedia, where we have a general audience it is a needless distinction to make. Who cares if it can't be changed with /gamemode, thats not relevant to a general audience, which is why I said for all intents and purposes.  Nixinova  T C   22:34, 28 November 2019 (UTC)

Oppose. The Education edition is already mentioned and so is the game's use in education. There is nothing to merge as none of the non-primary sources support any other content other than Education version's release.

The Nether Update on the timeline is TBA meaning "to be announced". It actually has been announced, as the main text of the article states, to be released this year. I believe this "TBA" should be changed to "TBD". It has been announced, but it isn't for certain yet, so "to be determined" is more accurate. Thanks! Leijurv (talk) 07:02, 18 February 2020 (UTC)

Hi. I've found some sources indicating that the Nether Update will be called "1.16".

Could you add a reference in Cultural Impact to the article from TheVerge [article from TheVerge] in which is described the return of college students to Minecraft in order to construct their university campuses, as a result of the social distancing of SARS-CoV-2? Students are carefully building their campuses in Minecraft in order to have a place to carry out senior year traditions and to socialize. In addition, two students from Boston University have created “Quaranteen University,” a new server specifically made to host a Class of 2020 graduation for students from hundreds of different universities.

In the hardcore section of the page, it states, "Hardcore mode is a survival mode variant that is locked to the hardest setting and has permadeath, which permanently deletes the world if the player dies," this final part is no longer true. Dying in Single-player Hardcore no longer automatically deletes your world, instead, the player is shown a death menu to either spectate the world or go to the title screen. If the player goes to the title screen and re-enters the world they are shown the same death menu as before. ^{[1] [2]} MilkWithPulp (talk) 08:54, 29 April 2020 (UTC)

As of May 14, 2020, the Nether Update promises to bring in several new songs, many of which (specifically Rubedo, So Below, Chrysopoeia, and Pigstep) have already been added into the game in the capacity of a snapshot. All four of these songs are by composer Lena Raine, so I am suggesting that Lena Raine be listed below C418 under the tab "Composer(s)". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1700:721:32F0:EC14:5586:8700:CA3B (talk) 03:20, 15 May 2020 (UTC)

The last update for the Legacy Console Edition wasn't released in December 2018, but on March 19, 2019. Link: https://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Legacy_Console_Edition_version_history#xbox-TU74 — Preceding unsigned comment added by MaksPEDIA (talk • contribs) 14:57, 18 May 2020 (UTC)

I do not qualify to edit this article myself, but I’d like to suggest an edit for someone else to make: Lena Raine is a video game music composer, and she recently made a few songs for the nether dimension that will be added in the upcoming 1.16 update. I was thinking that maybe she should be listed under composers, along with C418. Here is her Wikipedia article so you can hyperlink it: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lena_Raine Mackerrr (talk) 20:16, 24 May 2020 (UTC)

Well, as far as the infobox goes, I added her to that a while back. Looks like somebody removed her, so I re-added it. I'm not sure why someone is removing a legitimate composer from the infobox. Harmonia per misericordia. OmegaFallon (talk) 20:57, 24 May 2020 (UTC)

Because she only wrote a few pieces for a post-release update. Per the infobox documentation, the field should be reserved for lead composers only. That being said, she could belong in note form instead of outright omitted. ~ Dissident93 ^(talk) 03:53, 25 May 2020 (UTC)

I know that persistent vandalism were going on here, and this article needs to be protected. But the game had updates recently (New composer for the new nether music, Mojang launching Minecraft's related game, the 1.16 update), we need to edit this article. What I know about whats going on, a game in China that copied Minecraft, Mini World, was removed from app stores, and its players (mostly elementary school students) try to revenge by deleting all the content in this article. Although these vandalism is disgusting but we need to edit this article, and most players who know much about this game don't have an extended confirmed on Wikipedia. I suggest, change the indefinite extended-protection to a limited time protection. It should expire next year so this article can be updated. Votes ↓↓↓(do I have the right to start a vote?😁) -- Herobrine303 (talk) 10:08, 30 May 2020 (UTC)

This is an inappropriate way to requested changes to the protection level. It's not a vote. Make the necessary edit requests with sources and someone will update the article. Even if we lowered the indefinite to a 1 year protection, it wouldn't change anything about your ability to edit the article now. And the span of vandalism this article has faced, reoccurring every single time protection expired, is why indefinite is in place. -- ferret (talk) 13:00, 30 May 2020 (UTC)
