Talk:Water

I don't think multiple references to the same item are necessary, for example the recent edit added several links for the torch item. As per standard wiki procedure imo only the first instance something with a definition is mentioned needs linking. I'll wait a bit before reverting the redundant links though. - Spinfx 04:23, 25 July 2011 (UTC)
 * The edit in question had some textual edits in it too, so I just "fixed" the extra links. Thanks for pointing it out though. happypal (talk &bull; contribs) 07:35, 25 July 2011 (UTC)

Mining Information
This is largely covered in Guide:Mining Techniques. Perhaps the information here should be merged with that and a link provided? -- TechpriestMagos 22:45, 4 August 2011 (UTC)

No More Replacing Water
Seems with version 1.1 water cant be replaced by dirt anymore, confirmation by someone else needed as it might be my game is broken^^


 * Confirmed. It is unaffected by placed blocks now. Falling sand doesn't remove water anymore either. I shudder to think that the same must be true for lava - how will we ever mine Hellstone without risking anything? This certainly presents a whole new set of challenges. -- TechpriestMagos 09:58, 2 December 2011 (UTC)


 * This feels largely gamebreaking to me. --Preceding unsigned comment added by 184.99.87.75 (talk • contribs)


 * It's really not. I've already adapted to having to redirect water while I'm mining rather than just blocking it up. Additionally, water (and lava) can now be pumped after hardmode is activated, making it a breeze to deal with in the late game. -- TechpriestMagos 23:20, 12 December 2011 (UTC)
