==Latest Version number==
Can someone fix the launcher version numbers? The latest release and beta versions are 2.4.57. Thank you

== Thoughts on a potential new introduction text? ==

The current introduction text is very long and has, in my opinion, quite a bunch of unnecessary facts in it that are not interesting to someone who would like to be introduced into the game. Also, some things are horribly outdated, for instance the Pi Edition as well as the Legacy Console Edition are in focus; both editions aren't actively developed on anymore.

We have changed the introduction text on the German wiki quite a while ago. This is a machine-translated version of the current one: <span style="color:#E6EFF4">(I couldn't be bothered to translate it myself)</span>

Minecraft is an open-world game created by Markus Persson and developed by the Swedish game company Mojang AB. The whole world – a landscape with mountains, rivers, seas, forests, deserts and other landscape types – consists of blocks which the player can take away or place as he likes. So you can change the world according to your own ideas, create paths, cities and harbours and create fascinating buildings – either alone in single player mode or together in multiplayer mode. There are also different game modes that emphasize different aspects of the game.

Minecraft in the Java Edition for computers with Windows, macOS or Linux operating systems can be played free of charge in demo mode or purchased for 23.95 €. Once the game has been purchased, you can play in multiplayer mode and create as many worlds as you like. There are also other Minecraft editions for various mobile devices and game consoles, all of which must be purchased separately.

The development of Minecraft started on May 10th, 2009. The official completion date of Minecraft 1.0 was November 18th, 2011. Shortly afterwards Markus Persson handed over the development to Jens Bergensten and dedicated himself to other projects. Since then, the game has been constantly developed further. By October 2018, 29 million copies of the Java Edition had been sold, making it the best-selling PC game of all time. By the end of September 2018, all Minecraft editions had sold over 154 million copies. In addition, there are 100 million downloads in China.

This is of course only one possible text that of course still could be improved upon (it only mentions Java Edition, and it only mentions the price of Java Edition in Euros). But the main question is, should the introduction text be changed at all? What should it contain? <nowiki>|</nowiki> [[User:Violine1101|violine1101]]<sup>([[User talk:Violine1101|Talk]])</sup> 23:31, 3 January 2019 (UTC)

:I agree that there doesn't need to be nearly as much text about the history of different versions, especially the discontinued ones. There's also way too many links in the "about Minecraft" section; for example, stuff like "sandbox" and "Android" probably don't need to be linked to. There could also be a bit more information on what a wiki is and how to contribute to it, though I'm not sure how that should be phrased. There is currently a link to [[Minecraft Wiki:How to help]] in the very top section, but I doubt most people will notice it with all of the other links on the main page. –'''[[User:Sonicwave32|<span style="color:green">Sonicwave</span>]] <small><sup>[[User talk:Sonicwave32|<span style="color:#008FB2">talk</span>]]</sup></small>''' 19:34, 8 February 2019 (UTC)

:{{CommentSprite|5}} Agree with that, the introduction text should be way shorter. Also, with more place on the main page (just under the introduction for instance), we could implement the Trivia idea some people talked about on Discord at least.

::::It seems better than the current version of the page, although I still think it's too long.

:I made a rough mockup of a new main page at [[User:Sonicwave32/Main_Page]]. Basically, the intro sentence is reduced to two short paragraphs (which might be a bit too short), and the "Did you know" is moved to the right of it, with the "Play it" section underneath.

::I'd say that the introduction text is enough, but could be improved. I don't have any feedback at the moment though. Also to revive this conversation, I've made some pretty significant changes to the "Play It!" section on [[User:Sonicwave/Main Page|Sonicwave's]].

== Simplify Bedrock Edition platforms ==

Bedrock Edition platforms on the main page was mainly to represent previous editions such as Gear VR Edition, Fire TV Edition, etc. However with the introduction of Bedrock Edition, Gear VR I don't think is related to– let's say a platform. It is quite ambiguous on how we define platforms, but mostly they are used to represent OSs. Which comes to my previous statement, Gear VR is pretty much a device and not an OS, so is a Fire TV. So should we remove them from the list?

For additional information: Yes, I do realize that most of them came with their own store, perhaps we can separate store links into its own section. (please note that I'm not familiar with any of these devices.) – [[User:ItsPlantseed|ItsPlantseed]] ⟨[[User talk:ItsPlantseed|₰]]|[[Special:Contribs/ItsPlantseed|₢]]⟩ 17:35, 22 September 2020 (UTC)

On this regard, I suggest that the link <u>Tutorials/Mechanisms|Mechanics</u> be simply linked to "'''[[Mechanics]]'''". The page is a very general catalog of most of the mechanics in the game, in a similar spirit to the main page's purpose, so it can serve well as sort of a extension of the main page.

I recently reset all my settings. Before I did, there were no ads. However, after the reset, ads started to pop up. Is there a setting to disable ads? [[User:Pi31-dot|Pi31-dot]] ([[User talk:Pi31-dot|talk]]) 16:25, 9 June 2021 (UTC)
:No there isn't. The only way to get rid of ads on Gamepedia without adblockers is to get the PRO rank. Did you have a pro badge right beside your account name before you reset your settings? Because when I reset mine a while ago it got rid of my PRO status. [[User:NineTreyBlud|James Haydon]] ([[User talk:NineTreyBlud|talk]]) 17:42, 9 June 2021 (UTC)

== "Did You Know" section label ==

Why is "Did You Know" section labeled "Community" on the main page? [[User:Coderkid|Coderkid]] ([[User talk:Coderkid|talk]]) 15:52, 18 June 2021 (UTC)

== links to ftb wiki, ftb reddit on main page, also more modded minecraft content ==

== Minecraft games list ==

Can someone who has access to editing the main page put Minecraft Earth under the discontinued games section? [[User:XJeViLX|XJeViLX]] ([[User talk:XJeViLX|talk]]) 12:48, 4 July 2021 (CDT)
:This has already been changed in the [[Minecraft Wiki/editcopy|editcopy]]. Many of the admins are inactive and there is a [[MCT:CP#Who?|discussion]] that you can participate in if you want more admin and therefore more frequent updates to the main page.

== Main page should have a place to post things like pictures, memes polls etc ==

In many other wikis i visited the main page has a place to post stuff. Why can't this one have it too?

I think This would be a great idea! I would add it but I’m not a Director. Anyways, good idea! Also, who wrote this request? There’s no signature. [[User:Minecraftemery|&#42;Insert Cool Signature Here* -Minecraftemery]] ([[User talk:Minecraftemery|talk]]) 18:58, 18 September 2021 (UTC)

== Simplified Logo ==

I noticed there is a slightly simpler version of the Minecraft logo on the loading screen in the Bedrock Edition beta 1.17.20.22. It seems to be the new logo, as seen on the Caves and Cliffs logo. I hope this won't be for the Main menu logo.
Also should we stick to the current logo on this wiki? [[User:Blazerun19|Blazerun19]] ([[User talk:Blazerun19|talk]]) 00:19, 28 July 2021 (UTC)

== Sync ==

Excluding the changes for the windows 11 files, can some update the news, updates, lead section (to change to current games) and remove 1.17.10 from planned versions?

==I found a new minecraft version==
I found it with Flashpoint. It's called Minecraft 4K.
Am I allowed to add it to Missing versions?
Also, can I add this screenshot of Minecraft 4K to Missing Versions/screenshots? [[User:OrrinPants|OrrinPants]] ([[User talk:OrrinPants|talk]]) 21:02, 8 August 2021 (UTC)
[[File:4k flashpoint.png|left|thumb|200px]]
: [[Minecraft 4k]] is already documented on the wiki. Is that what you found? --[[User:AttemptToCallNil|AttemptToCallNil]] ([[User talk:AttemptToCallNil|talk]]) 22:38, 8 August 2021 (UTC)
::Yes. [[User:OrrinPants|OrrinPants]] ([[User talk:OrrinPants|talk]]) 21:19, 9 August 2021 (UTC)
:::FYI, if you're wondering about the thing listed as "Version 2", that's an unofficial modified version of 4k. I've already sent in a patch to rename it accordingly to highlight this (as well as add the older official version of 4k), but it might not appear in the next Flashpoint release. - [[User:User-12316399|User-12316399]] ([[User talk:User-12316399|talk]]) 21:29, 9 August 2021 (UTC)

==Talk pages==
With the new format, I can't find talk pages (for regular pages). How do I switch back to the previous format? Alternately, how do I access the talk page for a page I'm visiting? (Without having to manually edit the URL and put "talk:" in front of the page name.) [[User:SirDaddicus|SirDaddicus]] ([[User talk:SirDaddicus|talk]]) 18:23, 31 August 2021 (UTC)
#On the top right of the page, click on a button (next to edit) and Talk (#) will appear.
#Fandomdesktop cannot be changed back to hydra, your only choice is to stay or use vector (which messes up the sidebar).
#Wrong place to ask questions, do it on the admin noticeboard, all of these questions have already been answered on the community portal as well.

==Add "The"==
When Micro$oft demanded that this wiki nolonger brand itself as "official", the word was removed from the mainpage. But how about if the wiki logo on the main page would not just say "Minecraft Wiki" and said "The Minecraft Wiki" instead? Adding the "The" would be a legit way to embiggen the site name there. It would just sound way better by having this enbiggening implication. [[User:GMRE|GMRE]] ([[User talk:GMRE|talk]]) 17:58, 10 October 2021 (UTC)

== Windows development version is off ==

Unlike the Android and Xbox next to it, Windows for Bedrock development version shows
"beta 1.18.0.20"

It should show instead:

== Add Java Edition 1.18.1-pre1 ==

First [[Java Edition 1.18.1 Pre-release 1|pre-release for 1.18.1]] is out, but no mention of it on the main page.

== Replace Computer.svg in the "Java Edition" section of main page ==

[[File:Computer.svg|thumb|200px]]
The [[Minecraft Wiki:Community portal/Microsoft status update|Microsoft status update on the community portal]] includes the following line:<br>
''"Remove all Minecraft logos from the main page."''

The Computer.svg icon used to denote Java Edition still contains a Minecraft logo. I suggest changing the icon that represents Java Edition in this section to the icon of the Java programming language. (Java.png on the wiki, make svg asap)

== Java Edition no longer available to be purchased alone. ==

Minecraft Java Edition is not being sold alone any more, and you can only buy it with Java & Bedrock edition bundle. So the main page should update the information. [[User:Mr.Axe616|Mr.Axe616]] ([[User talk:Mr.Axe616|talk]]) 13:36, 12 June 2022 (UTC)

== Subst or replace editcopy template ==

The {{tl|editcopy|code=no}} template is used on the Main Page, which prevents it from being edited by non-admins, including me. I want to make some improvements, but I can't for this reason.
