[edit] All the Zelda CD-I games should be merged into one article

Hi, I had tagged a merge proposal for all Zelda CD-I games to be merged into one article which can be found here. However, this merge proposal was tagged in September 2007 and there were few comments on the talk page. So I decided to bring it up here. Magiciandude (talk) 01:17, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

It's a very good idea, better to have one good article than 3-5 stubs. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 20:00, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Navigational Templates

Recently I created Template:The Legend of Zelda in an effort to make a navigational table that covered the full range of Zelda articles on Wikipedia, effectively depreciating Template:Zelda, Template:Zelda games and Template:Zelda characters. Since then other users have indicated that I may have been too bold and should have gained a consensus before enacting the change. They hve also indicated that I should have either worked on the old template rather than creating the new one from scratch or at least linked the talk pages. The reason I created the new template rather than working on the current ones was that I was tring to incorporate elements I hadn't used before (see this version) and I didn't want to cause any disruption to something in active use (it took me a while to get it right before I had to simplify it). If there is indeed a consensus for the new template I'll link the page histories to the talk page and then see if it would be possible for an admin to merge all of the histories together. I'm sorry to have caused any trouble, I was trying to be bold not reckless and I genuinely think that a single template (the one I created or otherwise) is a better navigational solution that the three that existed previously (and now currently). Sorry about the trouble. Guest9999 (talk) 12:53, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

I think combining them into one template is a good idea. --- RockMFR 16:46, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
Agreed, consensus has existed to do so for quite a while, so good job getting it done. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 19:55, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
I'm all for the change, provided we can move the talk/edit history somehow. The most important talk/edit history is template:Zelda games, as that was the main template. Not sure how you would keep the other stuff but the Zelda games template history/talk definitely needs to be moved to the new location. Also creating copy of this discussion on the Zelda games template as well. This is from Wikipedia talk:WikiProject The Legend of Zelda seriesBerenlazarus (talk) 00:57, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
OK, there seems to be a consensus to use the new template. I'll link the old templates' history to the talk page of the new template and then try and get an admin to merge the page histories of the new template and Template:Zelda games. For now I'll move the two other templates (Template:Zelda and Template:Zelda characters) to wikiproject space to preserve their histories. Guest9999 (talk) 12:13, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

Thanks to the appreciated efforts of Chrislk02, all three original template histories have now been merged into the new one. I hope the result is to everyone's liking. Guest9999 (talk) 14:56, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

  • Comment - Why was the red color and triforce symbol removed? It was an awesome looking template, it should be changed back to the way it was. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 17:18, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
Probably for consistency with similar templates. The Prince (talk) 19:19, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
...Not to be rude or anything, but what does that matter? Why can't we have a unique template? It's not like red is hard to read. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 19:25, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
I'm actually neutral to the decoration, but I think there should be a limit. Look for example at this template which IMO is way too much. The Prince (talk) 19:37, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
I agree, that OC template is too much. But this one is really cool!! I vote we bring it back. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 20:00, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Redoing the article index

[edit] New SVG for you guys

Hi guys, I made Image:Crest of Hyrule.svg and Image:Crest of Hyrule black.svg.--Suit777 (talk) 21:26, 18 April 2008 (UTC)

Surely those are copyrighted. You should take those off of Commons. Pagrashtak 21:29, 18 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Fixed members userboxes

I just thought I should drop you guys a quick line, I replaced 30 instances of the old userbox with the new one. Just in case anyone saw me poking around in their userpage. The edit summary was: replacing with proper userbox, Replaced: {{User:Scepia/UB/WPJ Zelda}} → {{WikiProject The Legend of Zelda series/Userbox}} using AWB. May the triforce be with you. xenocidic (talk) 15:24, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Cleaned up the portal

I cleaned up the portal if anyone cares. The main thing I did was change the color scheme, for I thought the previous one was harder on the eyes. Artichoker (Discussion) 02:42, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] FAR

The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask is under FAR. Buc (talk) 21:11, 6 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Link's Crossbow Training development

Well, I wrote up a six paragraph development section for LCT. :D I think that should be a focus, now that the FT is complete. - A Link to the Past (talk) 05:52, 9 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Weird Thing

For some reason, when I scroll the list of high quality zelda articles, the stars for the featured articles don't scroll with the rest of the box, and end up "floating" above the good articles. 142.166.242.245 (talk) 05:22, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
