Can you remove my contribution?

Hi

i'm new to this forum and made a contribution (http://zeldawiki.org/index.php?title=File:TWW_Ganon.png&diff=prev&oldid=427303). However, I had no right to upload the file and I feel bad for it. Can you please help me and remove my upload? I will contribute to this forum with texts in the future because I don't want to get legally sued.

And if you did so, can you please remove this request from this page?

I can't even sleep normal now, what have I done...

Very much thanks! Template:Nosig

Hi Adrenalin,
I can delete the revision if you really want me to, but you really needn't worry. What you are doing is not illegal, and even if it were, you would not be the one held accountable (the liability lies with the owner of Zelda Wiki and maybe the staff, but definitely not you). Zelda Wiki claims the right to fair use for all images made by Nintendo. Zelda Wiki is a non-profit, educational site; we do not profit from using Nintendo's images. If anything, we're giving them free advertising. In fact, Nintendo has lately come out in support of fans using their intellectual property. They have further shown this by agreeing to interviews with Zelda Universe and Zelda Dungeon, who use many of the same images as us.
Please confirm if you would like to have the image deleted. But I assure you, there's really nothing to worry about. :) — Hylian King [*] 20:09, 15 January 2015 (UTC)

It really would be better if you removed it. There could be a similiar happening compared to the sudden YouTube claims and sues. I don't trust Nintendo anymore. Adrenalin (talk) 02:13, 17 January 2015 (UTC)

Your revision has been deleted as requested. Your name is no longer tied to the file. Sorry for the delay!
For the record, I'm pretty sure those Youtubers were profiting from their videos. Zelda Wiki is, again, not-for-profit, so it's not the same situation if that's the case.
Cheers! — Hylian King [*] 08:53, 17 January 2015 (UTC)

Category Idea

Hello. A question for you - perhaps there could be a category to distinguish the various dimensions/realms of the series? I mean places like Hyrule, Lorule, the Dark World/Sacred Realm, the Twilight Realm, etc. Drake Clawfang (talk) 03:40, 16 February 2015 (UTC)

Hi Drake! I believe what you're thinking already exists in Category:Countries. "Realms" would be a much better name for it, though... — Hylian King [*] 16:02, 16 February 2015 (UTC)
That's similar, but not quite the same. I mean like alternate dimensions and such, not just locations that are not Hyrule. Drake Clawfang (talk) 19:03, 16 February 2015 (UTC)
Oh I see. Thing is, there's only about a dozen or so canon "realms" and almost half of them could be considered alternate dimensions. Personally I think it might be a little redundant to have two small categories with such a significant overlap. — Hylian King [*] 19:32, 16 February 2015 (UTC)
Okay then, thanks for the response. Drake Clawfang (talk) 19:52, 16 February 2015 (UTC)

Also, would I be allowed to create a Trading Sequence page for the item trading on Crescent Island in Oracle of Ages? It is a trading sequence, in a sense - Link's items are stolen and he has to retrieve them in a set order, trading some of them to the island trading post, until he has all of them. Drake Clawfang (talk) 04:07, 17 February 2015 (UTC)

That sounds like a great idea! I say go for it.
For the record, I don't have the final word for these things. Editor consensus actually decides ZW's content. I could say the Dimensions category is a bad idea but if everyone else were to turn around and say we should do it, then we will. It just seems that recently, not many users are interested in discussing these things... — Hylian King [*] 13:11, 17 February 2015 (UTC)
I know the feel, I have to fight to get people to discuss things on the FFWiki, even just a "yay or nay" on a suggestion. I'll make the new page now. :) Drake Clawfang (talk) 23:13, 17 February 2015 (UTC)

Questions on Translations

Hello old friend. It's been quite a time... Remember me from the days way back? I recently got Majora's Mask 3D and came back to the Zelda series through it. I noticed that some translations of the remake differ from the N64 version... And also some new items have been added. But while looking at the translation pages, I noticed they have been splitted to individual pages... But what happens for example when I edit the Items Translation page, does the translation page for everything auto-sync with it, so the translation doesn't need to be typed there anymore or does it have to be done manually? Because that would mean double the work... And it could somehow cause inconsistence when someone forgets to add it on both... Thanks in advance for a reply SkullJ (talk) 18:50, 6 April 2015 (UTC)

Hi SkullJ! Good to see you back!
Yes you are correct. You only need to edit the subpage. The complete translation page will update automatically. (We had to split up the pages because they were way too big.) — Hylian King [*] 12:33, 7 April 2015 (UTC)
