Talk:Zol

Merge
The information on the two pages is pretty redundant considering these are forms of the same basic enemy. It's like having separate pages for each boss transformation. Well, time to wait for the input. 06:43, 29 April 2009 (UTC)


 * That and I've seen people constantly switching names between the 'two'. One moment it is called Gel, the next it is Zol. They're basically the same. The Goron Moron 06:58, 29 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Reading through the two articles is like Deja Vu. I say go ahead with the merge.  --Ionizer 10:17, 13 August 2009 (UTC)


 * I think the two articles are rather similar, but because they are different enemies, I think they should remain separate. They are given separate entries in just about every guide or manual in which they appear. They are a part of the same family of enemies, but they are different. The articles do sound similar though, partially because I did a fair amount of the editing for these two pages awhile back and at the time was linking to manuals and such for precise definitions as Nintendo had them. Basically, I think the style I edited them and the wording has contributed to the redundancy. Nevertheless, I think these are NOT variations of the same enemy... like stalfos colors... but just part of the same family. I'm in favor of keeping them separated.

 * DO IT. Noble Wrot 03:20, 28 September 2009 (UTC)
 * While they may have separate entries everywhere else, they originate from the parent being, and should be at least on the parent being's page. It's really a quality over quantity issue. You said it yourself, there is a good amount of redundancy, however, I believe that would occur no matter how it is written, since there is such an overlap with these two enemies. I believe if this merge is not done at the present time, future wiki-ers will do it anyway considering the defense I have placed above. So, YES, please merge. 03:52, 3 February 2010 (UTC)
 * What would the title of the merged article be? Ganondorfdude11 05:42, 26 February 2010 (UTC)

Most likely Zol, because not only is the Zol the main, mother form, but the Gel could have it's own redirected section, as it is just a part of the main form. 05:46, 26 February 2010 (UTC)
 * I'd support this merge! Jeangabin 08:12, 17 March 2010 (UTC)
 * This should be merged because Gels come from Zol, they are part of Zols. We don't find that much Gel alone in the game without slicing a Zol. May a similar merge should be made for thr Bit, Bot and Big Bot from Zelda II? Jeangabin 08:24, 17 March 2010 (UTC)

Skyward Sword
Has it actually been confirmed that the ones in Skyward Sword are Zol? They seem like ChuChus to me. I mean, sure they split like Zol, but the Chu in Twilight Princess split too, and these ones in Skyward Sword can merge together again (as seen in the Ancient Cistern video) - like Chus but unlike Gels. It seems more likely to me that such an enemy in a 3D Zelda game would be a Chu rather than a Zol. Fyrisvellir 09:14, 15 October 2011 (EDT)
 * I personally think you might be right, unless it was named somewhere that they are Zols. Its very hard to tell the differences between some slime enemies just by look, and even by behavior. I also think that unless an enemy is specifically named in a preview we should not put it in an article anywhere on the wiki yet, because it causes problems when things are misnamed. I have been avoiding new information, but the only enemies I know that have been named are Deku Babas, Bokoblins, Stalfos, Octoroks and Lizalfos (I think). But like I said, I haven't been keeping up on the details. I do know that these slime enemies were in the very original demo, but weren't named. Fizzle 09:28, 15 October 2011 (EDT)
 * Yeah, I agree somewhat, but I don't mind it so much when it's made clear that they have been given temporary fan-created names like the Scorpion currently. I mean, that article will need to exist at some point anyway, and we already have information about it. Some enemies whose names haven't been officially revealed are quite clearly new designs of existing creatures (like the Moblin and Lizalfos) - they aren't officially, but y'know, Occam's Razor... The problem with this Zol article in particular is that the creature in question isn't something with an unrevealed name as such; it could be either of two different existing creatures. It could, of course, be a Zol, but I think the evidence to the contrary warrants a position in the ChuChu article instead. Like I say, I don't know if it has been officially revealed as a Zol, but I've been following the game extremely closely and can't find anything that says so. Fyrisvellir 10:23, 15 October 2011 (EDT)
