Account verification

In order to get a role on the Discord server, users need to verify their account with their wiki account. Here's a guide about how to get verified:

  • You need to have made at least 50 edits to at least one of the language versions of the Minecraft Wiki in order to get the editor role, although other roles, such as directors, administrators, and Mojang Staff, don't require this as long as the role applies to you.
  • Add your Discord handle somewhere on your user page.
    • Alternatively, you can use the talk page of this page.
    • If you cannot do this for some reason or don't want to publish your Discord handle publicly on the wiki, you can request using an alternative verification process in #editor-verification.
  • Write !wiki User:<your wiki username> into the #editor-verification channel.
    • If you have made less than 50 edits on the English wiki, you can verify your account on another wiki using the command !wiki <interwiki>:User:<your wiki username> as well.
  • Wait for a server moderator to verify your account. Please be patient and don't ping server moderators.

Fork

This category contains channels specifically for discussing the wiki's move from Fandom. These channels are in the process of slowly being phased out.

Administration

This category contains channels that can only be viewed by a small number of users with certain roles. Specifically, there are private channels for wiki administrators, directors, Weird Gloop, FANDOM staff, and server moderators. The channels are used for coordinating these teams.

Additionally, there are channels that use the Logger bot to keep track of messages that are edited or deleted, as well as users joining and leaving the server. These are only accessible by server administrators and moderators.

In other languages

This section contains channels for some languages the Minecraft Wiki is available in. Some wikis have their own Discord server, in which case its invite link will be posted in the corresponding channel. If there isn't a separate Discord server for a language, the channel can be used as a discussion room in that language.

If you want to request an additional language channel, you can ask a server administrator in #discord to add it.

Archive

Several archived channels are placed at the bottom of the server.

Bots

There are the following Bots on the server currently:

Wiki-Bot

Wiki-Bot can search for and link to pages on the Minecraft Wiki, as well as search for pages on other wikis and provide information about wiki users. For a full list of commands, use the command !wiki help in #bot-commands or read the pinned message in that channel.

Logger

Logger logs most of the actions that are happening on the server. There's also an audit log built into Discord, but that one gets cleared after a certain amount of time. This bot is only relevant for server moderators.

Curious Chicken

Curious Chicken is a private multipurpose bot for a few Discord servers, mainly used for moderation actions.

PluralKit

A bot designed for plural communities on Discord. It proxies messages with webhooks so each member of a system (an individual with multiple selves) can express themself without using multiple accounts or signing messages. Due to Discord limitations, proxied messages have the "BOT" tag next to them despite not actually being bots.

Rusty Bot

A private multi-task bot, mainly used to show embeds for Discord message links.
