Community talk:Zelda III Cartridge Hoax

It seems as though several links on this page are missing/broken. Does anyone know where these pages or images can be found again, before I remove the links? Also, there appears to be some more info here, if someone is interested in expanding this page. 17:43, 18 August 2009 (UTC)

This whole article seems dubious. None of its claims are referenced, and it seems to be based on hearsay and an easily-doctored photo. The entire article is just rumors. Ganondorfdude11 14:43, 23 February 2011 (EST)


 * Agreed. The article is terribly written, first of all. It's built on rumors and speculation and seems to me to be absolutely pointless; grounds for deletion, really. I went ahead and put up the Delete template. Unless someone can bring in some references and improve this article in a big way, I think we should get rid of it. 15:46, 28 February 2011 (EST)
 * I think the fact that it already had two improvement templates as its header and only one reference, denying the very rumor that the article is about should suffice. There is absolutely no verifiable content in this article at all. It's all hearsay and should be zapped immediately. Ganondorfdude11 22:01, 28 February 2011 (EST)
 * Before we bust a gasket GD11, I do think that this article should go BUT the topic at least deserves a mention in the trivia section in the A Link to the Past article. Albeit faked, there are a few pictures that support this article, and it has been a part of the Zelda mythos for awhile now, on and off-wiki. Since we are the community's wiki it deserves a mention somewhere, if not an article. 22:21, 28 February 2011 (EST) EDIT: Then again, just because an article hasn't been worked on for months, has two improve templates, and has one reference doesn't mean it should be deleted. Look at this page, for example, the whole thing is hearsay, with no concrete facts, and hasn't been worked on for months... should it be deleted too? Considering that page is all theory and rumors as well, it might as well be. Don't worry, this article is pretty useless anyway, I'm just making a point in general.  22:30, 28 February 2011 (EST)
 * You know what we should do? Make a mention of this page on the A Link to the Past page, and then use this page as a reference to write up a Community article on Zelda III. Since the topic's been a popular community one for ages now, it deserves a place on the wiki, but not necessarily a place on the mainspace. I'd rather do this than delete an article whose topic has had such an impact on the Zelda community. 22:37, 28 February 2011 (EST)
 * If all else fails, one could simply redirect this page to the ALttP article (more specifically, to a sub-section of Game Information that would explain the hystory of the failed-to-rise game). Deletion is too hasty for a decision in this case. After all, the basis of the hypothetical third NES game was carried over the SNES game (in fact, the reason why it was cancelled was because of the high amount of memory required, especially for a NES title. --K2L (Interrogatory) 23:01, 28 February 2011 (EST)
 * I like Cipriano's idea. I was thinking about it myself, actually... Who's going to be the lucky guy to undertake this project? 07:50, 1 March 2011 (EST)
