Hey there! I am an administrator on the English Minecraft Wiki (this one!). I prefer to do maintenance tasks over actual article editing; I also enjoy writing templates, doing image related things and long walks on the beach.

If you have a repetitive task you don't feel like doing, I have a bot called Overwatch AI – which uses the AutoWikiBrowser software – which I might be able to use to complete the task for you.
For interwiki linking, R2-D2 (run by Scaler) will take care of that eventually.

Contact

If you want to contact me, the more reliable way is to just leave a message on my talk page or e-mail me at mcwiki@matt-russell.com. If it's urgent, you might be able to find me on the #minecraftwiki IRC channel. im am a Admin for The mc Wiki but i ban people without reason or prior research i dont know why i am allowed to kepp my position

F.A.Q.

Q: How do you make those sexy block renders?

A: Blender. It's a free program, but has a bit of a high learning curve, mainly due to its odd controls.

Q: I want to use one of your renders for a free/commercial (paid) purpose, can I?

A: I don't have any problem with the renders being used for free purposes, although I do prefer it when people ask and have a crediting link back to the image on the wiki, my userpage (here) or my website, but this is mainly so anyone wanting to use the image can find the original, or knows who to ask if they want to use it or need a custom version made. It's also partially just out of interest to see what sort of things they're used for.

For commercial purposes, it is best to ask me over e-mail (link in contact section). If used commercially without asking, then it is a breach of copyright.

To-do list

Incomplete tasks
Task	Status
Find a more IE < 9 compatible method of displaying minecraft skin's searchbar background, while also not making Opera misalign the search button.
Change {{Sprite}} and friends to allow easier linking and less sub-templates.	Project started. Needs a lot of work still.
Write documentation for any templates that have bad documentation or are missing it that I understand.	Finish later. More important things to do.

Completed tasks
Task	Notes
Re-write Grid sub-page templates (e.g. {{Grid/Crafting Table}}) to be only layout pages, and move all base-code to {{Grid}}. Also improve grid's code in general (less images).
Look into problem with the minecraft skin, where .suggestions is used for both the search bar at the tabs, and the search bar on the search page.

Write documentation for templates I've created that are missing it.
