The new crafting grid is a great new system and makes the Wiki far easier to update, and more professional. However, there is one issue which is that it has created a lot of redlinks to pages for items like 'Spear of Bladorthin' (which does not exist because we use general equipment pages instead). For these pages, redirects to the appropriate page on this wiki is the obvious solution.

However, there are also pages like 'Wheat' that are used in crafting recipes but are in vanilla and do not currently have a page on this wiki. These are more difficult to solve, as redirects to the official minecraft wiki on gamepedia are not possible.

There are two possible solutions I can think of:


 * 1) All of these pages could be made as redirects to the minecraft wiki (note that it would have to be the old wikia one, not the official gamepedia one, as redirects can only be used across wikia).
 * Or, an actual page could be made for each of these vanilla items with the vanilla template on each and a link to the page on the official minecraft wiki.

Which solution should we use Create redirects for each vanilla item to the old minecraft wiki Create a new page on this wiki for each of these vanilla items, with a brief summary and a link to the appropriate page on the official minecraft wiki

Note: This poll is only for guidance, if any admins have objections to the system favoured in the poll, the poll will be overruled.

If anyone has any other ideas, please say.
