I am a user on the Minecraft Wiki, who is also a user in Minecraft.

Name

Well, I needed a name for my Minecraft account, and in Minecraft you are a miner and a knight... Although, since I do like the medieval era the name kinda fits. During that era, knights lived by a standard of conduct which included bravery, courtesy, and treating others responsibly. They also were often Christians.

Feel free to call me "KnightMiner" or simply "Knight" if you wish.

In Minecraft

In Minecraft I have recently starting making non-cube shapes. Most of the stuff I build I think look nice, but it may not look so nice. I like to make farms and redstone machines, and some redstone farms. I often get killed for weird reasons, or normal reasons, or reasons that are not weird or normal. Basically I die a lot.

Currently in my survival world I am playing with natural health regeneration disabled.

Mods

Previously, I would play with MCPatcher, but since the major feature I liked from that, fixed CTM, was added to vanilla as block models, I have since stopped using that.

In 1.7.10 though, I started playing with a custom pack of mods, and continued playing as they updated to 1.10.2. I also eventually started making my own mods and joined a project for an existing mod. See ftb:User:KnightMiner#Mods for more information.

On the Minecraft Wiki

Around the Minecraft Wiki I tend to make articles look nicer by removing irrelevant information, rearranging stuff, adding templates, and removing tutorial information from the main articles. I also tend to make weird mistakes and lists (the part about lists use to have slightly more humorous context, but not anymore). Also, apparently I am an administrator now.

I also like making templates, and often break templates. For the most part I am a lot better at modifying templates instead though. I also can make lua modules with a bit of skill.

Admittedly, I am not very active on the wiki these days due to most of my free time going into other projects, but you still will see the occasional edit from me. If you need to reach me specifically for some reason I usually respond to {{ping}} or a talk page message.

Bot

I operate a bot called KnightBot⁴. If you have a repetitive task you wish to be done, feel free to leave a request on my talk page for the bot to perform.

To do

General

Rework {{history}} module, hopefully using just one version of cell inserting rather than three.
Add information from Talk:Slime#Verify information to Slime
Add additional sorting to Help:Official sources?
- Basically, sort the people not only by whether they are active, but also their job title. Mainly for the sake of developers as they have the most impact on game featues.
Finish archiving and topic closing guidelines
Cleanup texture pack
- Less tutorial, more fact. Like my resource pack rewrite
Repropose user page guidelines
- Like really, we have all the unstated rules about what you can do with user pages, lets state them somewhere
- Work on some cleanup first
Do stuff
~~Witch hut article proposal~~
- ~~Write test article before proposing~~
Reboot official minigame guideline proposal with UHC article proposal
- Write UHC article proposal
Propose points from User:KnightMiner/Workbench/About
- ...
Merge/move Banner/Patterns into Chunk format somehow...

Projects

I am currently involved in the following projects, with my current goals for them below as well.

Rewrite for Style

Work on new categories
Attempt some form of guidelines for new pages

Categorization

Remove as many templates from directly in Category:Templates as possible.
- Doneish?
Attempt more interest in the project
- Feels a little off attempting to rework the structure by myself

Other stuffs

I like to draw, and have made several personal skins. I also have made two good resource packs. The rest I have designed were based on a failed idea, I just never cared to work on them, or they lacked unification or content.

I also like making random code stuff and like to build stuff outside of Minecraft.
