Merge[edit]

I think merging this with Mojang would be highly stupid, as Minicraft is totally unrelated to Mojang. If it's going to be merged it will be better to merge it with Markus Persson. Wagner ^u t c 17:55, 5 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I wouldn't go as far to call merging with Mojang stupid, but I agree. Cheeftun (talk) 20:29, 5 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Stupid was maybe a bit too far, but merging a game's article to a company that didn't even create the game's article is not really a good idea. Wagner ^u t c 20:51, 6 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think the article should be merged to Persson's article for two reasons. 1) There is clearly enough coverage and content that this article deserves its own article, as the AfD is representing and 2) merging this to Persson would either cause a WP:WEIGHT issue or would result in a significant loss of content, neither of which are desirable outcomes.

I say either delete it or merge it with Persson's page. I've seen pages that are based off of things more people are aware of get deleted, there is no way this game should have it's own page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.36.166.38 (talk) 15:38, 8 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Your argument doesn't reflect anything of policy or a real reason for merging it. Just because other stuff was deleted has nothing to do with this article and this situation. If by more aware of, you mean more reliable sources were discussing them than here, then perhaps those other deletions were done incorrectly. Silver seren^C 01:39, 9 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

There are plenty of good sources to establish the notability of this article. The article would lose significant content if merged with Persson's page (due to article weighting). Silver seren's completely right on this (and we often don't meet eye to eye on wiki issues).--Stvfetterly (talk) 16:55, 9 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Any photos of gameplay?[edit]

I think this article would be TONS better with a photo of gameplay. I've never seen this game, so I think it would be a great addition. ℂ𝕒𝕕𝕖 𝕂𝕚𝕞𝕓𝕣𝕠𝕦𝕘𝕙 (talk) 17:07, 9 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Mentioning Minicraft Plus?[edit]

A recent remake was created on github called Minicraft Plus. I think it should get a section, but I really am new to the whole wiki editing thing. It's not a dead project, and it has an active community. Rocked socks (talk) 14:11, 12 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
