Hi, I noticed that you often use this separator for wiki pages:

<!--========================================================================================-->

I do not think they are a bad idea, but they are not standard. Section titles should be enough.

I use it to give more space between sections. With that, wiki looks more clean and beauty.
Can be a standard? (If not, I can stop using.)

Personally, I don't think they are necessary.
In the source for Wikipedia pages (e.g. wikipedia:Operation Overlord), you'll notice that separators aren't used.
So yeah, it would be great if you could stop. (I hope I'm not being too bossy!)

I'll stop (you aren't too bossy. I like collaboration and discussion about ideas and standards).
Now that you mention standards, I would like to standardize the wiki by Mediawiki standards.
Do you think wiki administrators will give me permission?

What do you mean by "standardize the wiki by Mediawiki standards"?
(PS: You can sign edits by using four tildes: ~~~~)

Minetest Wiki is far beyond Mediawiki version. It's not secure and it's not using the best extensions of MediaWiki.
One of them is the translation method that is obsolete. The Mediawiki standard is like this and not duplicate the page for each language.
Another method is the use of sub pages, the way it's used does not allow automatic indexing and alphabetically (example). I know I should not create external links but somehow it says that this internal link do not exists.
What do you mean with four tildes? Do you mean that I should sign with date (fourth tilde)? I consider this page a temporary page. I clean it when is too long. It's the reason I'm signing without date but if it's your wish...

I would suggest you to read Wiki guidelines if you have not read it yet, and you could link to any categories directly with internal link instead of external link. I recommend you to read and use the Template:Mod Data and related templates when you're writing articles on mods, see it in use at Mods/MOB Framework and all subpages under it as example on how to use them. --Muhdnurhidayat (talk | contribs | sign) 09:17, 3 May 2017 (UTC)

I have tried to link Category:Mods but the result it's a blank text. Somehow the wiki not show internal categories. Maybe it's a bug because Minetest use an very outdated version of mediawiki. I tried to contact ShadowNinja about this but without an answer.
I know about Template:Mod Data but my first priority is create an index of mods, then complete all information. --Diogogomes (talk)
