-"Wither is immune to all projectiles": They only become immune to projectiles when they put up their "shield" at half health and drop to the ground.

-You can activate a wooden pressure plate with an arrow no matter what. Same goes for wooden buttons.

-Shears do, in fact, take durability damage when shearing wool in the PC version. I used up a pair taking down the sails from a pirate ship I found while playing Hexxit once.

-Endermen cannot create golems, as the pumpkin must have the "placedbyPlayer" bit set to true for it to spawn one. If an Endermen places it, it won't register that bit as true, and won't create a golem. If that worked, then having a pumpkin grow onto a golem body would also work.

-"Pumpkins are more rare than diamonds": When did this happen? Last I checked, walking through any Extreme Hills biome can net you almost a stack of pumpkins, whereas it can take hours of mining to find a single vein of Diamonds.

Sorry if this seems rude, but I abhor inaccuracy, and prefer to keep the lore about Minecraft set straight.

And thank you for not spazzing out like most people do when someone corrects them. It's refreshing to see someone who realizes the difference between criticism and community input. :3
