Enemy Names in Japanese- interesting findings
A few interesting things can be gleamed from the Japanese names for some of the enemies from this game. Source before I go on: http://bestiary.zeldalegends.net/index.php?game=z2&limit=

And they got it from something called the Futabasha guide.

Anyways, the enemy I've seen referred to as "Basilisk" on other sites, and which is a page-to-be-made from this page, is actually... a Zora! Yep- in AOL, Zoras were four-legged beasts.

Also, Barba and Volvagia have suspiciously-similar names in Japanese- Barubajia and Varubajia, respectively. Is it possible that, despite the English translation, they were meant to be one in the same?

The variety of Moa-like enemy, which floats for a while, stops, and opens its eye, has the Japanese name of Girobokku, whereas the Moa itself has its name translated directly from the Japanese- "Moa".

Clearly, they're two different enemies.

There's a whole lot more interesting stuff that can come from the Japanese names, and I'll be adding new articles on some of the otherwise-unnamed enemies, such as the birdlike knights from the Great Palace, known as Fokka in Japanese. Dinosaur bob 13:27, 19 October 2007 (EDT)

Pros?
Is this section really necessary? It seems a little... I don't know, POV? Ando 12:35, 18 January 2008 (EST)

It outbalances the "Black Sheep" section to keep things (appear) neutral. I think the Pros. section should stay up until someone is prepared to properly merge it with the BS section and then split it again in a proper "reception" and "gameplay" section.IfIHaveTo 13:59, 18 January 2008 (EST)

Removing the useless 'places'
There are numerous links to places in this game which are completely useless. The lack of information isn't the problem of our contributors', but the problem of the game. There is no information that is viable enough for places like Tantari Desert to have it's own page because it can be discussed in other articles. Landmass "places" also are useless. Parapa Desert has too little information and literally only has a palace in the whole place. Central Hyrule is not only useless and a waste of time, but a disgrace. Most of the articles link to this as reference, so I think the aforementioned articles (and others unmentioned) should be removed and any reference to "Central Hyrule", or others like it, should be linked to the map and give the reader a general direction of where to look. 02:25, 11 February 2009 (UTC)
