[edit] Improving Article

I have removed the "marked for deletion" tag just because the article would otherwise have been automatically deleted. According to the text of the tag, it was permissible to remove it if someone is going to attempt to improve the article. The Ocarina of Time stone locations and gossip items were not script dumping, I assure you. I spent quite some time improving that section such that each of the elements of the Zelda series that are located elsewhere are linked to. The Gossip Stones deserve their own entry on Wikipedia because they are an element in the Legend of Zelda series that reveal a great deal of important information about the storyline, characters, etc. I will work to improve the section containing items of gossip from Majora's Mask, and if it cannot be done, I will delete that section. --TheTriumvir 12:53, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

A script dump with links is still a script dump, I assure you. A list of things that the gossip stones say is just that, a list. It has no particular encyclopediac value because there is no summary. Ultimately the stones are merely a mechanism for dispensing information, a plot device without much inherent value. Nifboy 16:23, 18 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Gossip stones in TP

The stones you howl into to call the red wolf in Twilight Princess may be a new design of Gossip Stone; they bear the Shiekah symbol, but the eye is hollowed. I'd like some consensus before I add this. 72.187.97.84 21:21, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
