Welcome here. I just figured out a better monobook layout for the wiki. Castaway2000 (talk) 05:18, 15 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Is that why it's suddenly green? Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 05:20, 15 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Yeah. It's better this way, in my opinion. I was tryign to change the bright yellow quickly Castaway2000 (talk) 05:23, 15 March 2019 (UTC)

 * I wonder if Doomhiker is going to join. I told him about triforce wiki but he hasnt responded. Maybe he's upset zelda archive was closed off to editing? Results May Vary (talk) 00:54, 2 May 2019 (UTC)

Re: Forking

 * What do you mean by that? I moved the content off zelda.shoutwiki.com entirely. The whole site is off, and all the content not from hylian pi on zelda archive is preserved here. He gave me the pages and images to preserve here Results May Vary (talk) 01:43, 2 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Ah, hylian pi created those, so i didnt move them off, since he wants to keep zelda archive up as a personal project Results May Vary (talk) 01:49, 2 May 2019 (UTC)

Re: Zoras
I'll go move it back then Results May Vary (talk) 02:50, 2 May 2019 (UTC)

Since when was naming Canon?
https://zelda.gamepedia.com/2nd_Potion See the notes section: "This item is also referred to as the Water of Life in the manual.[2] However, because the term in the game itself take precedence over it, this term is not considered Canon." ... Results May Vary (talk) 22:46, 2 May 2019 (UTC)

Special:WhosOnline
Hi, I added a Special:WhosOnline on recent changes, just like the one Mario Wiki has (porplemontage helped get it working) Results May Vary (talk) 17:18, 4 May 2019 (UTC)

2nd Potion / Life Potion
Should they be the same or separate articles? I cant seem to decide Results May Vary (talk) 20:13, 4 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Ok, so then do we merge them under a single entry on The Legend of Zelda article? I think they're called Water of Life in the later games Results May Vary (talk) 20:17, 4 May 2019 (UTC)
 * The Zelda Collection guide lists it as Water of Life as well as the manual. I'd personally just merge them under Water of Life... Here's some links to some Zelda pdf guides--i've saved some in case the original link goes down: https://archive.org/search.php?query=zelda%20guide Results May Vary (talk) 20:36, 4 May 2019 (UTC)

OoT GCN?
Hi, if we were to make a title for Ocarina of Time Master Quest (as a disc), what should we name it? It's already really confusing trying to distinguish between Master Quest as a mode and the disc itself... Results May Vary (talk) 02:08, 5 May 2019 (UTC)

Opinion on Zelda Archive
Hi Doc, what's your opinion on Zelda Archive? Personally i didnt like the gray layout or the MS paint feel to the site, and that hylian pi closed it to editors. That's why i went through all this effort to get this wiki up for everyone Results May Vary (talk) 01:19, 7 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Also tbh, i'm glad that Zelda Wiki went to gamepedia, so it gives us a better opportunity to improve on what they got wrong, as in justification for starting a new wiki. Also, why does Zelda wiki have a blue background? Makes no sense Results May Vary (talk) 01:25, 7 May 2019 (UTC)

Timeline..
Hi, so how would we go about the whole timeline controversy in the Zelda series? I'd personally not add all these "canon/non-canon" titles all over the wiki, especially since each game page can list the timeline that it falls under. Results May Vary (talk) 01:34, 7 May 2019 (UTC)

OoT Characters
I'm busy adding all the characters into the Ocarina of Time article. It's pretty confusing to try and find a good, convenient list of every minor character and how to best sort, organize the information (whether it's by shopkeeper, six sages, or non playable characters with few lines of dialogue). How would you do it personally? Results May Vary (talk) 16:19, 9 May 2019 (UTC)

Gender removed
I removed the gender part as per your suggestion. As you've noticed on the wiki, I take in user suggestions on what to implement and what to remove; doesnt mean they're my boss :P. Results May Vary (talk) 23:54, 9 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Yes, I saw. The "view recent changes" thing is nice for seeing when changes have been made without having to refresh constantly or expand the list hugely through auto-updating when a lot of similar changes are made in sequence. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 00:02, 10 May 2019 (UTC)
