Got my sandbox back... now for a new project.... And the new project is.....

Zelda Wiki.org Affiliations
A bold proposal: As of now the only affiliated sites are the Masterminds, Strategy Wiki, and Zeldapendium. Most sites have a traditional affiliations link exchange program for sites they support. Zelda Wiki.org would benefit greatly by doing the same thing.

Banner
First we'd need an awesome banner. I'm thinking this picture with Zelda Wiki.org in legible text, and in smaller sizes (probably as a cropped section near Zelda's face). Secondly, we'd need help lining up affiliates between Other Wikis (Independent Wikis would be most preferred since they too would lack the support network of Wikia), Zelda fan sites, and possibly any other gaming or wiki related sites that would be willing to support ZW.

Well since we'll need a proper banner to represent ZW, I figure to involve everyone. Although I love our logo, I'm hoping to get something with a fresh look. Whatever is chosen will be nominated here and voted on before proceeding to acquire affiliates.

I have someone working on making an 88 x 31 pixel banner for ZW, but other submissions are welcome too. Banners posted here will be the typical 88 x 31 size to keep consistent with the most commonly used size.

Mastermind Affiliates
These affiliates have taken extra steps to becoming involved with Zelda Wiki.org. Each of these sites have a dedicated member to assist us as needed, and do more than expected to promote this wiki on their forums/sites.

Currently, Zelda Wiki.org acts as the Wiki of eight websites, which are as follows in alphabetical order: 


 * Hyrule.net (since December 28, 2008)
 * LegendOfZelda.com (since April 29, 2009)
 * Portal to Hyrule (since June 8, 2009)
 * The Sacred Realm (since May 4, 2009)
 * Zelda Dungeon (since September 26, 2006)
 * Zelda Legends (since September 20, 2008)
 * Zelda Universe (since April 23, 2005)
 * ZeldaInformer (since July 28, 2007)



Other Wiki Affiliates
Other Wikis that wish to be affiliated with ZW

Zelda Related Sites and Forums
Any decent Zelda related site that wants to be affiliated with Zelda Wiki.org without the formal vetting process of becoming a Mastermind Site. This manner of affiliation would be a good stepping stone to becoming one in the future.

Other Sites
Any decent site with little to no Zelda relevance. Nintendo, then General Gaming sites of course will be given respective preference (or later, sections) in the list.
