Edit warring
Hey Drake,

I understand you found Champion of Nayru's response to be antagonizing. However, you do not help the situation by responding in kind, and it does not justify entering an edit war.

It would be best if you made your case for the trivia at Talk:Dark Rites so that everyone could weigh in. It's fine for you to ask KrytenKoro to mediate, but keep in mind that, ultimately, it's the whole editor base that decides as a group what content gets to stay.

Please keep editing etiquette at heart when contributing. 07:31, 22 October 2013 (UTC)


 * Understood, and my apologies. I was very irritated to see him so obviously talking down to me and jumping to reverting me again. If he reverts again I won't war back. On the matter of getting other opinions, do you have one to contribute? I'm not going to push for the point to stay if others feel it should go, but I think it has value.

 * Thank you for understanding.
 * The connection you drew between the two trinities is logical and well explained. It's possible that there was an intended relation there... But I just think it's more likely to be a coincidence, and coincidences aren't really noteworthy. That said, I don't really feel strongly enough about it to take a real stance either way. I could take it or leave it, that's my honest opinion. 14:15, 22 October 2013 (UTC)


 * Fair enough, thank you. Drake Clawfang (talk) 17:39, 22 October 2013 (UTC)

Literally just about to look at that
Small request: on this computer I don't have access to a lot of video-game related resources due to filters. Could I ask your assistance on getting whatever's in the text dumps regarding the flames (and Veran/Onox/Twinrova's plans if you have the time), and if you can find it, the Japanese names of the flames? I actually have a document at home from when I was a kid describing the rites as if it was a page in the Lesser Key of Solomon (because I make bad decisions), but again, it's at home.KrytenKoro (talk) 14:21, 22 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Sure, I'll see what I can do. Drake Clawfang (talk) 17:39, 22 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Okey-dokey, according to the Wikipedia article for the series in Japanese, Flame of Destruction is "滅びの炎", Flame of Sorrow is "嘆きの炎", and Flame of Despair is "絶望の炎". Googling that Japanese results in more hits for Zelda articles so I believe it's accurate. Now, the romaji, I'll keep looking.


 * Also a note, Google is translating the Flame of Sorrow's Japanese as "Flame of Grief", now if that's just an alternate translation of the Japanese that could also mean Sorrow or the Japanese specifically means Grief and they changed it in English, dunno.

 * Okay, scratch the above. Via some forums I instead found "ほろびの炎" for Destruction, "なげきの炎" for Sorrow/Grief, and "ぜつぼうの炎" for Despair. The websites mention someone named "jacensolo", if that name means anything to the community, textdumped the games and translated them, so I tracked down Japanese YouTube footage and it looks like these are the in-game terms. Voila. Drake Clawfang (talk) 18:13, 22 October 2013 (UTC)
