Wiki Creation
Peefy: And it's starting to take a good shape. An excellent shape to be frank.

Category Links
To be able to link to Categories without making them look like external links, just write what you would as if you were categorising a page and then put a colon infront of Category. Category:Zelda voila.

Public Sandbox
I made a sandbox here for people to experiment with editing.

Creating Categories
Ah... Something to keep me busy. ^_^ Kudos to you, ZU, for coming up with this brilliant idea! Come to think of it, didn't I suggest something like this a year or so ago? Oh well, it doesn't matter. I am pleased to officially (officially, hah!) announce that I will treat any and all articles of questionable grammar with utmost care. Please, if anyone has something s/he doesn't want to take care of right away, you should notify me. I find an odd enjoyment in editting the work of others. I don't understand it, but it should greatly benefit this latest addition to ZU. BTW, hi Peefy! :D I have one quick question, though... Is there any way for low-clearance members to creat a new category? I would like to create one titled "Gamer Terminology" that will give definitions of terms and abbreviations that not everyone might understand. Your Loyal Zelda Fan, Wielder of the Sword

Image Problems
I have a question, i try to upload an image all the time but it fails me every time i try it. I tried it with every type of fyle, GIF, JPG etc. Does anyone know how to upload it correctly? Thanks in advance.

Can someone please give me an answer to my question? I want to know it :(


 * From your description there is no way to know what is going wrong, you need to give more details. Ian Moody 13:21, July 3, 2005 (UTC)


 * I am also having trouble uploading images. I tryed to upload twinmold and it said Internal error Could not copy file "/tmp/phpYbGUjM" to "/home/zunet/public_html/wiki/images/f/fa/Twinmold.png".


 * All fixed. --GoldenChaos 00:14, July 16, 2005 (UTC)

Plagiarism Report
Just now I was fairly shocked to find a blatant Wikipedia dump on Ganondorf done by Stylistic Vibe. It had been there for roughly two weeks and no-one noticed. I would like to ask that when a complete rewrite appears on any article that you should be instantly suspicious of it, and check Wikipedia or other sources. Oh and someone should inform that contributor about the specifics of Wikipedia content copying. Thank you for your time. Garrett 06:51, August 4, 2005 (UTC)

Disppearing Pages
I added some pages eailer today, and I just came back and they were all gone. I checked the log and it dosen't say they were deleted so I was wandering what happened?


 * The server seems to have been generally a bit weird lately, loads of edits keep disappearing and then reappearing later on or the next day. Ian Moody 21:08, October 3, 2005 (UTC)

Other Website Links
Is there any reason why Zelda Universe is the only web page that has a link to this wiki? You'd think that bigger sites would want to link to it.


 * The reason is that this is the Zelda Universe Wiki, unique to ZU. That, and no one has asked.

French Wiki
Hi, I would like know if this wiki can be translated in another language for example in french?


 * Im not sure how to put it on the site, but here's the HTML for an on page babel fish translater  --Hero of Darkness 18:25, February 14, 2008 (UTC)

Zelda Insider
You guys should really get rid of Zelda Insider as an affiliate. He has stolen content from sites like Zelda Chronicles and a few others. And whats worse is that he lies about it.


 * Do you have proof of this? That's quite a claim. --Jase 01:45, October 4, 2006 (UTC)


 * Yes, I own Zelda Chronicles and he stole my guides.


 * I meant more along the lines of physical proof. --Jase 21:53, October 4 2006 (UTC)


 * You will get your proof once he comes back online (meaning his site). For some reason it has been down ever since he was caught stealing.


 * Im just going to close this topic for now.

Wiki Navigation
It seems to a lot of people that finding the actual articles/wiki is quite hard. Can you maybe put it in the navigation named as something. Like named A-M,N-Z or wtvr.

And also, since this is the community wiki now, you think we should create a new template for it? Make it more zelda-ish...


 * The easiest way to locate an article is to use the search feature. As for skin, GoldenChaos is working on it. --Yumil 00:33, October 9, 2006 (UTC)


 * ...after I repair my compy that caught fire ;) --Jase 01:32, October 9, 2006 (UTC)

Kudos
Excellent job on the main page. It looks amazing! This should attract a lot of people and hopefully it will inspire even more to help with the wiki. Oh and btw, there is a broken link. the bosses link on the main page actually links to the dungeon page. Just a little heads up. But all the same, wonderful job! --Gambit8585


 * Fixed the Bosses link. --Lars 22:39, October 23, 2006 (UTC)


 * As some people know (or will learn) about me is that i am always coming up with new ideas...possibly too many. But my newest idea is to add a featured video as well, to go with the image and article. The problem is that I don't think ZeldaWiki.org has enough videos for once a month. Give me opinions on my talk page. --Claire 03:59, February 2, 2008 (UTC)

Geography
In order to avoid confusion about the locations of places in Twilight Princess, I believe it is important for everyone to use the locations of the same version of the game. Since Twilight Princess was flipped for the Wii, I believe that the GameCube locations should be used.
