How we source and check builds

Search before building

For every building or mechanism, we search public Minecraft libraries and creator pages first. A suitable public build is preferred over making a new one; an original is made only when nothing suitable exists or conversion is technically impossible.

Candidates are checked for completeness, version, download format and any explicit restriction. Paid, private or login-gated works are excluded.

What we import

• The download is public and reachable through the author’s normal flow.
• The page does not explicitly forbid reuse or redistribution.
• The work is not paid or private and does not require bypassing a login or paywall.
• The author and the original release can be identified.

Credit and provenance

Every community entry keeps the author names, the original project URL, the source version, the download format and any stated terms. The source hash is recorded when a file is imported, and the full archive stays out of the published site.

We do not present a community import as an original or as officially endorsed. If an author asks us to remove a work, we remove it and the corresponding credit, and keep an internal record of the request.

Verification boundaries

• A website check confirms the model, coordinates, material counts and export files agree with each other. It does not confirm the build works in a specific game version.
• Farm rates, drop rates and compatibility are the designer’s claims unless a page records a test method and result.
• One recorded Java test covers the Mossglen Cabin placement flow; it is described in the guides and does not generalise to other builds.
• Community models may be view-only and may omit entities, containers or redstone behaviour.

Corrections and takedowns

If a coordinate, material count, credit or source link is wrong, send the page URL and the correction. If you are the author and want a work removed, say so and include the original release link; we will remove the build and its credit.

We review requests as they arrive and update the page or remove the work when the request is valid. We do not publish a response-time guarantee.
