      Many lines in the Minecraft Encyclopedia use outdated language, as blocks, items, and biomes have changed names over the years.

      For example, this line in the Blocks page calls the Old Growth Taiga a "Mega Taiga", an outdated term since 1.18. The same page refers to red sand zone as a Badlands biome, so this page is clearly intended to use the most up-to-date language.

      Here are all the occurrences I could find throughout the Encyclopedia of outdated names:

      Page Outdated Name/Info Correct Name
      Armor Chain Chainmail
      Armor Gold (2 occurrences) Golden (2 occurrences)
      Banners Oxeye Daisy (this is used to craft the Flower Charge Banner Pattern, not added directly to the crafting grid.) Flower Charge Banner Pattern
      Blocks Dirt Block Dirt block
      Blocks Mega Taiga Old Growth Taiga
      Blocks Savanna Windswept Savanna
      Ranching 5 minutes 1 minute (MCPE-25233)
      Redstone "Redstone Dust comes from Redstone that transmits..." "Redstone Dust comes from Redstone Ore. This dust transmits..."
      The End End Portal frame End Portal Frame
      The End Ender Crystal End Crystal
