 * 1) Whoever is directly involved with Zelda characters in Subspace can be kept IMO. DjMack 18:21, 29

[face_palm] I meant to put it in Reject. DjMack 21:02, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

If we put anything that is involved with Zelda characters in Smash, why not a Princess Peach article? Zelda and Peach were held captive together. The argument, no offense to the one who said it, is ridiculous. We are not Smashwiki. Bek The Conqueror 01:07, 19 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Exactly...to compromise, we could merge it with the Super Smash Bros. Brawl article. -- Auron  Kaizer ( ...Kaizer! ) 01:45, 19 February 2009 (UTC)

Swords and Shields of the Legend of Zelda Series
Under the items category. Just seems like a way to take up space

 * 1) ya just move it to items and weapons.--griff 03:49, 14 June 2008 (UTC)

Temple Symbols
Like I said for the "elements" page. -- God  Of   Thunder!!!  15:48, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

Support

 * 1) Move the info to each of the temples' pages and the sage medallions, then delete the page. Solar flute
 * 2) Not useful to anyone. -- Auron  Kaizer ( ...Kaizer! ) 01:45, 19 February 2009 (UTC)

Selene
This character exists ONLY in the LoZ comic book series issued by Valiant, so her existence is not technically canon. Also, the name isn't even spelled right; it should be Seline, not Selene. But since she's from a non-canonical source, I don't think she should have a page. LadyNorbert 18:44, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

Reject

 * 1) We do have non-canonical information here, but I do support changing the spelling. Dialask77 15:08, 22 January 2009 (UTC)
 * 2) What this guy said. Notable non-canonical character, but needs serious help. Unfortunately, I haven't the time to check the comics. -- Auron  Kaizer ( ...Kaizer! ) 03:20, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

Merman
Most of the "appearances" really have nothing at all to do with mermaids/mermen. The Fishmen aren't really mermen, Joanne isn't really a mermaid, and, according to the article (I've never played the Oracle games, so I wouldn't just know myself), it is only referenced very obscurely in Oracle of Ages through an item (it would be like making an article called Roc when it's really just referenced through Roc's Feather).

The Hylian Archive
Okay, I've seen a couple of things like this recently. The page itself says it's a fansite; thus it belongs on Zelda Fanon. Anyone else agree? -- Moblin  Slayer  15:38, 21 February 2009 (UTC)

Support

 * 1) While I think it's perfectly fine to feature articles on some of the more famous Zelda fansites and websites, a page that is "in contruction" AND a Freewebs page is not notable enough, nor do I doubt it ever will be. -- Auron  Kaizer ( ...Kaizer! ) 20:51, 21 February 2009 (UTC)

Grass
We really don't need this...if we go by this standard, we'll also need an article for trees, flowers, dirt, and water...-- Moblin  Slayer  20:48, 5 March 2009 (UTC)

 * 1) Yeah kinda blatantly obvious.—[[Image:Triforce4.png|15px]] Triforce   14 ( ... ) 02:54, 6 March 2009 (UTC)

 * 3) what board sole created that page? Oni Dark Link 22:46, 6 March 2009 (UTC)
 * 4) Hmm, I was thinking it might be useful if put forward in another way, but changed my mind. I mean, it's pretty obvious. -- Auron  Kaizer ( ...Kaizer! ) 02:47, 11 March 2009 (UTC)

Big Quiver
This is pretty much the same thing as the Quiver page, just with less information. I think this could be re-directed to the Quiver page, andany info that is here and not there (any?) could be added there. If not, then this page needs to be severely cleaned up. --EveryDayJoe45 23:08, 19 March 2009 (UTC)

Rejects

 * 1) Nope. It's a separate item; hence, separate article. I truly question your logic here. -- Auron  Kaizer ( ...Kaizer! ) 13:24, 20 March 2009 (UTC)
 * 2) I agree with AuronKaizer.  Xykeb   Yvolix   Zraliv  02:57, 21 March 2009 (UTC)
 * 3) I third agree with AuronKaizer. --ThatGuy55 00:55, 22 March 2009 (UTC)

Comments
To AuronKaizer: I don't understand how its any different then the quiver, other than holding more arrows. I'm pretty sure anything covered on this page could be covered on the quiver page just as well. Should there be a page for green rupees, blue rupees, and red rupees too, when there only difference is how much they are worth, or should they all be covered under one page: Rupee. This is just my opinion, but this just seems like a pointless article that is the same thing as the quiver article, only with a lot less information. --EveryDayJoe45 19:06, 20 March 2009 (UTC)

Right, but the amount of arrows isn't the only difference. The Big Quiver is an item in itself: it is an upgrade to a weapon and thus is not just the same thing with more value. Do you suggest we put Kokiri Sword, Razor Sword, and Gilded Sword into one article just because the only apparent difference is the attack power? No, because they're different weapons, whereas the differently valued Rupees are just different amounts of the same thing.  Xykeb   Yvolix   Zraliv  02:57, 21 March 2009 (UTC)

No, because they look different, are more important to the story arc, and have differnet powers (range, power, sometimes special powers). The Big quivers only difference is that it holds more arrows. That could e mentioned in the Quiver article. But whatever, this is obviously a pointless argument I'm not going to win.--EveryDayJoe45 18:44, 21 March 2009 (UTC)


 * 1) The Big Quiver looks different from the regular Quiver. Not as different as the swords look from each other, but that's insignificant.
 * 2) They are not important to the story arc at all. Upgrading the sword in Majora's Mask is completely and totally optional and is just as important as the Quiver upgrades.
 * 3) "Sometimes special powers"? We're talking about the swords from Majora's Mask here, not any sword upgrades in any game, of course some sword upgrades are going to be more important than Quiver upgrades.

Regardless, the Big Quiver, despite not being very different from the regular Quiver, is still its own item, you have to win/obtain it in a fashion similar to any other important item. All items must get their own articles, whether or not they're significantly different from other items.  Xykeb   Yvolix   Zraliv  00:02, 22 March 2009 (UTC)

Same as with "grass." At least in my opinion. -- Moblin  Slayer (Working on it...) 02:40, 22 March 2009 (UTC)
