Requests for comment
Requests for comment are for assisting editors in gathering further input on any wiki matter. This can be useful in generating discussion, resolving disputes, or reaching consensus. All editors are welcome to assist with a request by responding within the linked talk page. Remember that the Minecraft Wiki operates on a system of consensus rather than voting, and explaining your reasoning is generally more helpful than simply supporting one side of a discussion.

- Page focused around a table showing what mobs can spawn on what blocks. e.g. passive mobs only in grass blocks, and some new nether mobs can't on wart blocks – 11:49, 22 February 2020 (UTC)

- Splitting articles agreed upon in MCW:Projects/DIG:Design to Implement Granularity; currently, some remaining biomes can be split. - 02:48, 18 November 2023 (UTC)
- A page listing all Legacy Console Edition entity caps. There are caps for pretty much all entities. There are caps for certain categories of mobs (I think TU69 added a new category for water animals). There is one for falling blocks, which you can reach by having blocks fall onto a fence, which prevents gravity affected blocks from falling. There is one for tnt (create a flat world with only tnt to test it), for end crystals and item frames have a rendering cap. I'd like to have an article listing all of these caps (I think they differ between platforms) and explaining the mechanics. 18:08, 25 June 2024 (UTC)
