Zelda Wiki:Failed Nominations

Three signed votes in opposition of a nominated article or picture temporarily disqualify it from becoming featured.

The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass
This would be an informing and new article for newcomers. --Eponasowner 19:18, 30 November 2007 (EST)


 * 1) It's the newest Zelda game so I think people should know about it. --Bigrageous 15:35, 22 December 2007 (EST)


 * 1) Other than the fact that this has had only one vote in almost 3 months, I think the quality of the article is somewhat lacking (there are other better game articles), and it shouldn't be featured merely by virtue of PH being the newest game in the series. —Adam (talk) 13:11, 23 February 2008 (EST)
 * 2) I would have thought a more interesting article for newcomers would be something like A Link to the Past or Ocarina of Time. --AmrasCalmacil 15:56, 24 February 2008 (EST)
 * 3) I agree, though Phantom Hourglass is a great game for Zelda newcomers, the article lacks interesting content. Ika5263 23:57, 28 February 2008 (EST)

Epona
A main part of the Zelda games, with a nicely set-out page and appropriate graphics. Should deserve a Feature. --Beanie 23:47, 23 February 2008 (EST)


 * 1) I love Epona, but in my opinion, this article isn't very well written. It doesn't deserve to be featured untill it get a good rewrite.--Link hero of light 10:16, 24 February 2008 (EST)
 * 2) It's a good article, but not great. And it doesn't cite any sources. —Adam (talk) 16:13, 29 February 2008 (EST)
 * 3) I love Epona as well, but as you said it is not very well written. --Claire 16:53, 29 February 2008 (EST)

Helmaroc King
Cool boss should be featured --Trogdor 3:49 19 February 2008 (EST)


 * 1) Is that really a good reason to be featured?  (Unsigned vote by AmrasCalmacil - see rule 6 above)
 * 2) Short answer; no it's not! The article is average at best, and cites no sources. —Adam (talk) 11:20, 8 March 2008 (EST)
 * 3) Uhh...yeaah....nowhere near as cool as most other bosses AND you didn't give a very good reason to why it should be featured. --ShadowLink45
 * 4) Well, no? It's a good length, but links to almost nothing else in the Wiki, needs quite a bit of re-writing, and, as mentioned, cites no sources. --Ando (Talk) 18:38, 10 March 2008 (EDT)

ReDead
The ReDead are classic "zombies" if you will. They have appeared in most games and are probably one of the creepiest creatures I've ever seen. --Zeldagirl93 19:55, 1 March 2008 (EST)


 * 1) I like these enemies for years the redeads are a cool zombies  (Unsigned vote by Lightningtom - see rule 6 above)
 * 2) Me too. These enemys are CREEPY as heck, yet so awesome. --ShadowLink45


 * 1) I'm torn here, because the article is a very good article, but does not meet all the criteria for featured article status (namely, citing no sources). --Ando (Talk) 18:38, 10 March 2008 (EDT)
 * 2) I like the article, but I have to oppose because I HATE these enemies! Their screams freak me out completely! Ika5263 11:36, 20 March 2008 (EDT)
 * 3) Just not quite good enough yet, I'm afraid. —Adam (talk) 14:19, 20 March 2008 (EDT)

Octorok
Mainly for previously holding the perfect attendence award, pre-Twilight Princess. --AmrasCalmacil 15:53, 24 February 2008 (EST)


 * 1) Great enemy, not-so-great article. To me, it's messy, disorganized, information-lite, and cites no sources. —Adam (talk) 11:20, 8 March 2008 (EST)
 * 2) Has very little information and could be organized better. And no sources cited. --Ando (Talk) 18:38, 10 March 2008 (EDT)
 * 3) This article is definitely not up to standards yet - and appearing in a Zelda game is not criteria... this is a Zelda wiki, of course it was in a bunch of Zelda games. --Jase 07:51, 3 April 2008 (EDT)

Volvagia
Definitely the best boss of the best game I've ever played. It's a very descriptive article of the whack-a-mole dragon. --Sk8torchic 4:21 7 March 2008 (EST)


 * 1) I think it is a good article because this is a boss that people may be starting to forget about. Good t bring it back into memory. --Bigrageous 23:45, 26 March 2008 (EDT)


 * 1) I like this boss too, but the article's not up to scratch. Too short, and Volvagia features in only one game out of dozens! —Adam (talk) 11:20, 8 March 2008 (EST)
 * 2) Well, the article's writing is a little weird to me, and the format's a little weird. Needs re-writing. --Ando (Talk) 18:38, 10 March 2008 (EDT)
 * 3) Waaaaaay too short. I know we want quality over quantity, but this article's only got a couple paragraphs. ;) --Jase 07:49, 3 April 2008 (EDT)

Darknut
Just because it's a very interesting article, full of facts, different types of the enemy (example: Great Darknut), and very good and interesting info! It also talks about this enemy's past future, origin, and it gives just about every example about this enemy that there is, especially in the Twilight Princess paragraph. --Ika5263 18:14, 26 February 2008 (EST)


 * 1) decent enough  (Unsigned vote by Zoralink64 - see rule 6 above)


 * 1) This is a strange article for me, because the first half has very little info, whereas the second half is pretty good. Still needs link fixes, sources, amongst other small fixes --Ando (Talk) 18:38, 10 March 2008 (EDT)
 * 2) If the first half was anywhere near as good as the second half, this would be featured article material. --Jase 07:51, 3 April 2008 (EDT)
 * 3) Great in parts, but there are just too many incomplete sections for this to qualify for featured status. —Adam (talk) 12:23, 3 April 2008 (EDT)

Light-Infused Master Sword
An amazing picture that to me, shows the true potential of the Master Sword. --Seablue254 17:25, 2 April 2008 (EDT)


 * 1) Its a bit to fuzzy--Zanramon ( &#39; .&#39; ) look its kirby &#91;&#39;_&gt;&#39;] 17:42, 2 April 2008 (EDT)
 * 2) Zanramons right, it's too fuzy. --Link hero of light 21:06, 2 April 2008 (EDT)
 * 3) I also agree. It's incredibly low-resolution as well. --Jase 07:45, 3 April 2008 (EDT)
 * 4) It's too fizy.--Article and Picture Voter 11:25, 3 April 2008 (EDT)

Zant Toy
Clear picture and as far as I know, ZW.org is the only zelda wiki that has a picture of zelda action figures.--Link hero of light 17:55, 24 March 2008 (EDT)


 * 1) I think it'd be fun to have a picture of the toy Zant up.  (Unsigned vote by Blood Rayne - see rule 6 above)


 * 1) Not one for me, I'm afraid. Neither the image or the figure itself are particularly good. —Adam (talk) 15:19, 26 March 2008 (EDT)
 * 2) No this picture aint that great —lom678
 * 3) It's not necessarily a bad or incredibly common image, but it doesn't quite seem worthy of being featured to me. --Douken 20:11, 4 April 2008 (EDT)

Clawshot
One of the coolest and most unique items in the whole franchise. A descriptive article of my favorite incarnation of my favorite item, the hookshot. --Nittles 17:15, 4 March 2008 (EST)


 * 1) Cool item, but unfortunately the article is too short and cites no sources. Also, in the same way as Boomerang (a past featured article) this would need to be merged with all other variations (Hookshot, Longshot, Grappling Hook etc.) in order to qualify, and I don't feel that would be appropriate. —Adam (talk) 11:20, 8 March 2008 (EST)
 * 2) While I'm not sure about the article being too short, I will say that I agree with the problem of the article citing no sources, and I don't agree with some of the writing (inappropriate contractions, etc.). --Ando (Talk) 18:38, 10 March 2008 (EDT)
 * 3) I agree with Adam, it needs to be merged with the other variations if it is to be featured. The opening statements could be flushed out a little more as well (unfortunately, I'm not much of an expert on TP). --Guy (T 13:08, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
