User talk:KPReid

I appreciate the help Largeanvil 06:01, 16 January 2011 (UTC)largeanvil

also not sure if theres a talk section for articles but I liked your userpage on non-movable blocks and I think it might be valuable to put it as a section under the blocks page, with each of the non-movable blocks linking to that section Largeanvil 06:42, 16 January 2011 (UTC)

[edit] Template Blocks

Yes, sorry... --Minecraftitaly 04:59, 28 March 2011 (UTC)

[edit] Massive page move

Please discuss in the community portal before you move a bunch of pages. ): --Bumble^talk 19:35, 15 April 2011 (UTC)

You can't just perform such massive actions after less than two days of discussion! People barely got the chance to even object/agree with your proposal, and you're breaking a lot of stuff meanwhile, too! I'm reverting your changes and we'll continue discussing your proposal for another few days because this is just ridiculous.--Quatroking - MCWiki Administrator 19:39, 15 April 2011 (UTC)

On reflection, you're right — I should have waited for more discussion, and perhaps arranged for the question to be more visible. I thought it wasn't a big change, since there would be redirects, though. Could you explain what exactly was broken, so that I can avoid making technical mistakes in the future? I was reviewing the results of my changes, and I didn't notice any problems, and I was planning to fix any resulting double-redirects. —KPReid 21:24, 15 April 2011 (UTC)

Various block info templates rely on the title of certain articles, and renaming them causes them to break. Plus, like you said, some of the grids broke too.--Quatroking - MCWiki Administrator 21:34, 15 April 2011 (UTC)

Ah, stuff like switching on PAGENAME? So actually performing this change would require editing various template parameters all over. I see. Given that it's that hard, I no longer feel it's worth (my) doing this, as the small improvement in consistency isn't worth the work. I would still hope that article text, and new pages, use the exact official item names. —KPReid 21:38, 15 April 2011 (UTC)

[edit] Block Property Index

I like the Block Property Index! --Adje 11:59, 18 April 2011 (UTC)

[edit] Entity and Opacity

Thanks for keeping on good work on Entity and Opacity! It's quite tiring for me to collect the important information. Xfs 03:26, 13 May 2011 (UTC)

[edit] Furnaces

Asterick6: I disagree with your approach to furnaces. The furnace has only one in-game name (both in the tooltip and the GUI) and that is “Furnace”, not “Kiln” or “Oven”. Minecraft is not a perfect subset of real life, and we don't need to make distinctions that Minecraft itself does not make. I don't care if we decide to replace “smelting” with “heating” across the wiki, since the game doesn't give a name to the process, but I think that there should be only *one* name for the process, because it works the same for everything it can be done to. —KPReid 23:06, 17 November 2011 (UTC)

I've moved the discussion over to Furnace talk page so others can present their opinions on this. —–Preceding unsigned comment was added by Asterick6 ^{(Talk|Contribs)} 00:24, 18 November 2011. Please sign your posts with ~~~~

[edit] Stop changing it

Arrows set blocks on fire now Doggey 01:37, 17 January 2012 (UTC)

No, they don't. I tested it myself just now with the latest Minecraft, firing arrows from a dispenser, through lava, at wool. The arrows stick in the block and remain on fire, but the block itself is never set on fire or burned away. —KPReid 01:39, 17 January 2012 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks for reverting that unimplented features page

I was just about to add alot of citation needed tags because i didnt know what to do. At that point, i noticed you *stole* my edit. anyway, thanks! --Miauw62 17:05, 11 February 2012 (UTC)

[edit] Didn't know where to ask this.

Does this wiki use UK English or US English? TheJanitor 13:06, 22 February 2012 (UTC)

I don't have the official word, but from what I've seen we choose US English on the grounds that the in-game text actually written by Mojang (as opposed to the community-source translations) is in US English. I wouldn't say that every single occurrence of non-US spelling is a abomination to be immediately stomped out, though. —kpreid 14:24, 22 February 2012 (UTC)

If you go to the community portal, it used to have a link to a discussion where the consensus was US English, but an admin removed it because it was resolved. I'll re-add that link there since obviously people still need to know about it even thought it was resolved (I think). - Asterick6 04:08, 4 March 2012 (UTC)

[edit] undo vandalism?

link. Maybe high tree part wasn't vandalism, testing it now... 93.106.40.21 09:41, 3 March 2012 (UTC)

[edit] Silk Touch and Glass

You appear to be correct - but it seems that it doesn't work on creative mode, which I was testing this on. How strange. –Preceding unsigned comment was added by Sciguyryan ^{(Talk|Contribs)} 07:47, 29 March 2012‎. Please sign your posts with ~~~~

In Creative mode, you just destroy blocks – they don't drop as items. Rather annoying when trying to test tool enchantments. -- Orthotope 07:55, 29 March 2012 (UTC)
