Zelda Wiki:Featured Article Nomination

= Currently Nominated =

Kafei
At first, mysterious, masked child. Possessing the strength of a man(see manga). Way faster than Normal Link. Tragic story and a main part of the best side-quest ever. Features of a Shiekah. A subtle cameo in Animal Crossing. A playable character!!!

Kafei needs to be featured, he is, while small to the Zelda universe in general, a large part of Majora's Mask. Zapdemon 01:24, 5 November 2008 (UTC) @


 * 1) Amazing side-quest with romantic and courageous storyline
 * 2) Kafei is a less-known character, so reading about him would interest visitors. On the other hand, any Zleda player who has picked up a controller already knows at least enough about the temple of time to at least search for it.--Claire 22:50, 13 December 2008 (UTC)
 * 3) The article meets the criteria -- it is lengthy, yet detailed, containing all information available on Kafei from the one game in which he was found. There is nothing wrong with the article itself. Ancblue52 15:53, 14 December 2008 (UTC)
 * 4)  In a word, yes. This character is not only little known about, but the page has a lot of information. I'm all for making this the featured article. --Prince Deity


 * 1) Though the character would make a great featured article, I find the content lacking. Some sections are only a sentence long, such as the Sun Mask says see Couples Mask. I think the page needs to be elaborated on before obtaining featured status. It should be almost complete within itself, and though giving links to other pages, it should give details to suffice in relation to Kafei. I don't see this yet! 11:12, 25 December 2008 (UTC)

Temple of Time
This awesome spectacle should be featured. Its really important to Zelda game history. Especially in Ocarina of Time. I think the informational sections are long enough, and it has great pictures of the outside and inside of the Temple itself. The Temple of Time needs its time to shine.--HeroOfTime6 23:35, 21 November 2008 (UTC)


 * 1) Agreed.  It was really incredible in both Ocarina of Time, where Link made his long sleep; and Twilight Princess, where it was a really good dungeon and the first place Darknuts appeared. -Zelda45 15:24, 22 November 2008 (UTC)
 * 2) I agree as well. very nice place, link is hotttttt--ILoVeSaSuSkE 15:54, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
 * 3) The Temple of Time is a really good level. In OoT, it was a place of epicness. Two huge rooms ensure that this is a sacred place. A large praising room (It would appear) and the huge room that houses the Master Sword through an indestructable door. The Twilight Princess temple looks like an actual dungeon, not a place of worship. Petman1325 19:59, 24 November 2008
 * 4) The Temple of Time is not only a very important place in OoT and TP but is also very cool. It has my vote.--HeroOfTheWinds10 19:43, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
 * 5) This article has a great spread I would be proud to have this be my first vote on ZW.--Makar11 20:03, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
 * 6) A well organized and descriptive page, very hard to come by. It's a very important landmark of the series and definitely important enough to be featured 20:49, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
 * 7) The Temple of Time is probably the most important Temple in the Zelda series, there is always something important there when it is featured in a game. So it wins my vote this time and I loved the music there in OOT, so mysterious.--Kresh64 22:57, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Yes, it is very descriptive and it does have a important part in two games. And as the article says "one of Hyrule's most ancient edifices." Defiantly should be featured--SenselessAura 03:01, 5 December 2008 (UTC)
 * 1) The article is simple, but well written. It is interesting to look at the differences between the temple in Ocarina of Time and Twilight Princess. There is a good combination of the old and the new and I think it is worthy of being featured. DawnPrincess 15:36, 18 December 2008 (UTC)


 * 1) It doesn't have enough sources for me to vote for it. It's a fairly decent article otherwise, but I cannot vote for an article without proper citations.--Rdnckj258 17:36, 22 November 2008 (UTC)
 * 2) *Vote retracted by voter. 01:58, 14 December 2008 (UTC)
 * 3) People have a tendency to study what they already know, and the temple of time is known to pretty much any Zelda fan. However, a less well-known subject would be more informing. --Claire 22:55, 13 December 2008 (UTC)
 * 4) Yes the Temple of Time itself is awesome. But we're not voting on the Temple of Time. We're voting on the article. The article is not impressive at all. It just seems mediocre and average. Nothing in it stands out. It is small and not even close to most of out other featured articles. 10:46, December 14, 2008 (UTC)


 * Okey, I really can't go either way with this one. That's not the point, how is voter 2 valid? If anyone has a good reason, I'll totally lay off. 14:21, 30 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Ando and I talked a bit about it. It is valid from what I gathered. But his closing sentence was not appropriate. So he should not randomly insert it anymore. 15:40, November 30, 2008 (UTC)
 * What about opposition 1 does the article really not have enough sources?--HeroOfTime6 17:39, 30 November 2008 (UTC)
 * We've already asked Rdnckj258 about that. We're waiting for a response. 18:45, November 30, 2008 (UTC)
 * Okey, I'll lay off :P 18:11, 30 November 2008 (UTC)
 * The opposition regarding the lack of sources was added when there was only about two references on the entire page. The reference list has expanded since. I've contacted the user about possibly retracting the vote now, but I haven't gotten a response back. If we hit three oppositions with no response, I'll likely just negate the vote anyway as there really isn't much more to be added. 18:50, 30 November 2008 (UTC)
 * I've rescinded my opposition, but I'm not really openly supporting it. The citation additions made it a better article than it was when I added my opposition (there were a total of 3 citations at that time, not nearly enough to warrant FA status.)--Rdnckj258 23:00, 2 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Votes 1, 2, 3, 4 and 7 all seem to be voting for the Temple itself, and not the article. Didn't we agree that this is not allowed? Or did I miss something? --Felicia&#39;s Champion 08:09, 5 December 2008 (UTC)
 * It peeves me too. But we do not have any guidelines set up here. So we technically can't do anything. 08:13, December 5, 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm beginning to think that we need to add guidelines for EVERYTHING - support / opposition, article / picture. We'll discuss this and hopefully have something up by tonight. 17:49, 5 December 2008 (UTC)
 * 1)  Despite that fact that it is a very informative topic, it is to well known. No doubt people already know a lot about this topic, and there is no need to feature it. --Prince Deity
