The ellipsis says it all.

Well, it probably doesn't, but I can say it does.

The Legend of Zelda
Oddly enough, I was introduced The Legend of Zelda through one of the first non-Zelda games to feature the hero in green, Super Smash Bros for the Nintendo 64. Of course, I purchased Ocarina of Time not long after that, then Link's Awakening, and eventually Majora's Mask. Oracle of Seasons was the first Zelda I purchased on release week, and also the first in which I defeated the final boss. Because of this, Oracle of Seasons has a certain place among all Zelda games to me. After that, it's mostly a blur in terms of which Zeldas I played. Although I own at least one copy of every official Zelda game (excluding re-releases, Link's Crossbow Training, if you count that), the only ones I have yet to complete are:
 * A Link to the Past
 * Ocarina of Time
 * Majora's Mask
 * Oracle of Seasons
 * The Wind Waker
 * Minish Cap
 * Four Swords Adventures
 * Twilight Princess
 * Phantom Hourglass''

Believe it or not, Zelda isn't even in my top five favorite video game series. It instead comes behind the likes of Disgaea, Super Smash Bros, Civilization, Kirby, Street Fighter, Soul Calibur, and others. In terms of the mystical world and lore it has created over the years however, the Zelda games' only rival in my eyes is Final Fantasy, which ironically, I don't enjoy playing nearly as much.

Any of my interests outside of those are... probably not worth mentioning on a Zelda-only wiki (unless you want to hear a rave about how underrated GaoGaiGar and Macross 7 are, of course).

Zelda Wiki
I first heard of it through a friend, but I didn't pay it much attention until later on through a link found on StrategyWiki. Although I've only recently made a user account, I've been using Zelda Wiki as my go-to source for anything Zelda for several months, making anonymous contributions from time to time. One of the main reasons I chose not to join was the lack of a community portal, which was strangely, although appreciatively added soon after I joined.

The second beef I have is how contributions, as good as they are, will be made in ten or more page saves when one or two would have been sufficient. This seems to follow how some of the best contributors seem to brag about how many edits they have instead of how good the quality and length of their contributions are. I mean no offense, but for sanity's sake, please use the Show Preview button. Then again, who knows, maybe I'm completely wrong in this way of thinking.

Of course, even with those minor complaints, Zelda Wiki is easily the best encyclopedic source for the inner workings Zelda information I've ever laid eyes upon. Hopefully with the newly-added community areas, it will continue to thrive and improve as time goes on.

Projects and Contributions
I haven't truly contributed anything work noting yet, but I plan to soon start improving any and all content related to Oracle of Seasons as I re-play it. If a few glances at enemy, dungeon, and item pages are any indication, that game could use a little more coverage compared to some of the more mainstream ones.
