We need to add an icon for Ocarina of Time 3D. May I sugest getting his face from this image? -- կրակ (խոսել) -- 00:52, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Remakes/ports (ALttP/FS, LA DX, OoT GCN, MM GCN etc) don't really get their own page, and OoT 3DS is no exception. :P Dany36 01:47, 17 June 2010 (UTC)

We should probably update the Skyward Sword icon. I suggest using Link's face from this image since he doesn't really look like the concept art Link. DekuLink 02:40, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
 * I just made one based on Jetski's suggestion. It doesn't look EXACTLY like the other ones (I'm no image expert), so maybe he or someone else can fix it for me. :P Dany36 02:53, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Maybe you should use DekuLink's sugestion because that image's eyebrows kind of making him look like a Feirce Diety. For some reaon people don't understand that OoT3D is its own game, it isn't the same game. It is like SMB3 and NSMB. Post Script: If you do make an image for OoT3D, use this one. It is the same, but larger. -- կրակ (խոսել) -- 17:30, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
 * All of the game nav icons use artwork, not in-game screenshots, which is what Deku Link's suggestion is. Dany36 17:32, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
 * We should keep it as the artwork, as Dany said, they all use official art for the pictures. Is there anyway to put a glaze over the SS pic, though? All the others seem to have some glaze over them, making them a bit less contrast-y, by comparison. 18:30, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
 * I tried but that was the best I could do. Steve could probably easily fix it, though. Dany36 19:18, 17 June 2010 (UTC)

Since the Main Page navigation template links to ALttP2, this one can be updated as well. (It requires admin rights) Zeldafan1982 19:33, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Oops, forgot about that. 'Tis done. 21:03, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
 * I suggest changing the percentage in the top line of code from 6.25 to 5. Right now, SS and ALttP2 are a different distance apart than everything else, and that fixes it pretty nicely. -TPIRFanSteve 23:51, 23 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Went ahead and changed it to 5.9% (100% divided by 17, the number of games, gives every game the same amount of space on the bar). Thanks for pointing that out. Kicking myself for not noticing haha. 20:54, 24 May 2013 (UTC)

A Link Between Worlds
Can someone update A Link to the Past 2 to A Link Between Worlds? I'd do it but I seem to not be able to edit it. :/ Also http://zeldawiki.org/File:Link-ALBW.png for new artwork. Zero-ELEC 15:32, 11 June 2013 (UTC)


 * Done. Feedback is welcome if anyone has any. 22:39, 12 June 2013 (UTC)

Well, this again. Should the artwork for ALBW be changed to http://zeldawiki.org/File:ALBW_Link_Drawing.png ? Zero-ELEC 19:26, 7 August 2013 (UTC)


 * I'll get around to it when I have the time. 21:38, 7 August 2013 (UTC)

Wii U icon
Hi, I made a couple of Navicons for the Wii U/NX X Zelda. Here they are. I know it's kinda jumping the gun since we don't even have a name for the game but I think it might be best to get it out of the way. So, which one do you like better? &mdash; Zero-ELEC (talk) 15:58, 27 April 2016 (UTC)

Deletion
With the announcement of it seems like it's time to get rid of this nav. We already have Template:Games at the bottom of every game page, predecessors and successors linked in the infobox, and also the Main Page which is a click away. It adds little value and is high-maintenance - we've already got enough things to do when a new game is announced. Making the custom icons require a certain skill which may not be immediately available after the announcement. It could be a while before someone gets around to making a new icon and meanwhile its absence is apparent on every game page - not a good look. Speaking of looks, the styling is outdated and does not match the wiki's current design. It isn't mobile-friendly so it's hidden to mobile users, i.e. more than half of our readership. Also, I'm told its presence at the top of the page is bad for SEO. PhantomCaleb (talk) 17:58, 13 September 2022 (UTC)


 * I approve of that deletion. The reason for SEO impacts is that anything put before the lead sentence/infobox (aka content that Google wants to fetch) makes it harder for Google to understand the page and display what it should on search results. This is one of the main reasons why we got rid of Template:Stub at the top of pages and moved it to sections. MannedTooth (talk) 18:24, 13 September 2022 (UTC)


 * I agreed in the Discord server but might as well put it here too. I third the motion as this template is a remnant of old article styles and will just keep getting longer the more games that are released. 19:24, 13 September 2022 (UTC)
