Talk:Blade Trap

Article needs to be expanded or completely re-written. Game sections are too short. Either combine into a more general description or expand on the current ones. Screenshots/Artwork could be added, edited, or maneuvered around for better appearance. Mases 03:11, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

I say we add pictures!!!! RupeeLord 20:35, 14 February 2009 (UTC)


 * Can you get pictures? Jimbo Jambo 22:02, 15 February 2009 (UTC)


 * I say this article lends itself better to a general description of the Blade Trap itself, instead of subdivision into individual games. It performs similar habits in each game, looks relatively the same between games, and either as motion sensors or doesn't. And as far as the pics go, some should be removed, others placed in a gallery to reduce article distraction, etc. Because this would mean a significant article edit, let's see what people think! 08:52, 14 November 2009 (UTC)


 * 1) Agreed. I came in to add a quote from the LoZ manual, page 39 but I'll let you add it as a part of the overhaul, instead of making more for you to move around. It doesn't really hurt anything to keep the images in a gallery, but ya know what would be awesome...an animation. :D 16:18, 12 December 2009 (UTC)

Possible Move
This one might be controversial, but technically this enemy is just known as Trap; the only time it was named in-game was in The Minish Cap, and there it is just called Trap. The Japanese name is also Trap, and it was just called a Trap in the original Zelda manual. However, it was called Blade Trap in the Link's Awakening guide, but that's the only place I think they are called that. Technically, while a useful way of distinguishing it from a generic trap, not every Blade Trap actually have blades, in some games they just have spikes, for example. Besides, the Trap page redirects here anyway, so its not like it'd be getting in the way of anything else. Thoughts? 10:40, 1 April 2012 (EDT)
