Halloween came and went in the blink of an eye, and we're already smack dab in the middle of fall. It's November, and we're still chugging along with the weekly Official Wikis that you can't get enough of. That's right, you should be excited, because we've always got some good stuff to share with you! This week we've got two goodies in the Official Wiki department, so read on and see what's in store!
Usually, our Editor of the Month is somebody who has made a significant contribution to a specific wiki over the month. This month, we recognize an editor who has made significant contributions to multiple wikis, as well as the overall Gamepedia community. MarkusRost is a dedicated admin of the German Official Minecraft Wiki as well as the Official Wynncraft Wiki. He is a member of our Gamepedia Rapid Anti-Spam Patrol (GRASP). He is the most active moderator of the Gamepedia Twitch channel. And, as if that wasn't enough, he also created Wiki-Bot, an automated search-by-chat bot for Discord, Slack, and Twitch. We caught up with our August 2018 Editor of the Month to discuss all things wiki.
This week's release of the Fallout Mash-Up Pack for Minecraft Console Edition brings big changes to the famous series, even if war never changes.
If you haven't realized it yet, Halloween is less than two weeks away. For those still searching for the perfect Minecraft costume, we're here to help. Take a break from exploring the Nether to check out our list of easy, amazing costume ideas. You can terrorize your neighborhood as an explosive Creeper or explore the world around you as the legendary Steve himself – the choice is yours. Your Minecraft Halloween costume is only a few clicks away.
Skins have undergone some changes as well! You can now set different textures for different body parts (instead of one "arm" texture, etc), as well as apply a "hat" layer to any body part, not just the head! Not enough awesome? What if you could toggle any layer parts on your body? You can do that too! Customizing your skin has never been easier, or more cool. Give it a try!
Be right back, I'm going to go server-hopping without my mask.
