Zelda Wiki:Failed Nominations

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

=Failed Article Nominations= The following sections are article nominations that received at least three signed opposition votes.

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)

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)

Gohma
Has been in the zelda series from the beginning so yeah--Lom678 6:54 16 February 2008 (EST)


 * 1) For quite a while when I played Ocarina of Time, Gohma was my favourite boss. That may no longer be the case, but I do believe it deserves to be featured. --Yuvorias 12:48, 19 March 2008 (EST)
 * 2) This is a great article with lots of good info about a classic Zelda boss. --Seraphim 20:16, 23 March 2008 (EST)
 * 3) This article tells you about all the different Gohma's through the games and she is the most recurring boss and one of the coolest at that (OOT's Gohma being my favourite)--Kresh64 16:44, 2 April 2008 (EDT)
 * 4) A cool boss that's been featured and changed enough, and the article covers each form pretty well --Emeryn 14:54, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
 * 5) Gohma is one crazy boss. I really like her in Twilight Princess and she's been featured in the game since the very beginning. Gohmas' got my vote! --Zeldagirl93 17:13 6 April 2008 (EST)


 * 1) While it is a decent article, it fails to cite sources and is a little sloppy in some places. Adzma 03:09, 20 March 2008 (EDT)
 * 2) Like Adzma said, its organization could use work here and there.  I'm fairly certain some of those sections (LA, FSA) could use a little more detail too.  I wouldn't call it bad, but I wouldn't say it's worthy of being featured either. --Guy (T 13:08, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
 * 3) It's okay, yet dosen't cite sources and some of it could use more detail. --David (T : C) 23:06, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

Zora
This race is one of the most important and reacurring LoZ races. They control the water that goes through Hyrule. They are also some of the most interesting characters in the game. They are very important if you ask me. I love the Zora. They are so important to the LoZ series it isn't even funny. They carry the most mystery and their forms are so awesome that I would love to learn more about them. They deserve their limelight moment. Zane (talk) 17:19, 14 April


 * 1) I just think that Zoras are cool, they look so proud. --Olle93 22:35, 19 April
 * 2) The Zora are a sophisticated cool looking race, In Ocarina of Time you help them and they help backso you can get the water spiritual stone. That's my vote. --Maggalo 19:22, 27 April 2008 (UTC)


 * 1) I think it needs a bit more information about the Zola from the original Legend of Zelda. There could be more information for the specific game descriptions. More about the possibly Rito theory with sources would be much better. (The Rito page has an entire section about the evolution theory yet the Zora page has a simple sentence). This is a decent article, but I think the standard for a featured article needs to be raised and I don't think this is quite, 'complete' for it to be available. Mases 16:13, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
 * 2) The article is too brief. It should be expanded. It just skims over the material without giving enough information. There is much more information that can be added. As it is, this article is incomplete. Not up to the standards of a featured article.--Matt 17:45, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
 * 3) They're an awesome race, Zoras. Still, we need more information in some of the sections before it can be featured. --Yuvorias, 11:02, 3 May 2008 (EST)

Gel
A very simple enemy with detailed descriptions. Article has several official sources as well artwork and screenshots. Something different than the more known typical featured items. Mases 19:27, 27 May 2008 (UTC)


 * 1) Although your improvements to this article are impressive, I have to say no. This article could serve as a model for improving articles about similar enemies. Then it will be only one out of many. This has happened with other featured articles before. Also, it is still quite brief by featured article standards. There is not a whole lot more information that can be put into it.--Mjr162006 20:27, 27 May 2008 (UTC)
 * 2) It's a little bit short. Gels really don't really have much to speak for. I want the little, unknown things of the Zelda universe to become featured articles, yes, but there isn't enough info about these.--Rdnckj258 20:33, 27 May 2008 (UTC)
 * 3) I have to agree with Mjr162006 on this one. Usually, we don't feature articles that are 1 of many. (P.S. I'm not putting you down or anything, keep up the good work, man!) --Seablue254 20:38, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

Outset Island

 * 1) Bleargh...pretty average, I have to say. Plus, no references, just a references category... --Yuvorias, 16:09, 28 June 2008 (EST)
 * 2) Yeah, pretty average, but longer than most. Again, no references,and it's not quite organized right.--Rdnckj258 16:09, 28 June 2008 (UTC)
 * 3) Too short by far and is mainly composed of images. Also, when nominating, could we please at least add a signature and date stamp? Thanks. 16:11, 28 June 2008 (UTC)

Twilight Realm
This article thoroughly explains Twilight and it's many facets. --User:Pawtamus, 10:00, 15 July 2008 (UTC)


 * 1) I really like this article. Since I've been here, this article has caught my I the most. --Gluemann267
 * 2) It may not have references and it may be quite short, but I believe that this mystical Twilight Realm is a key point in Twilight Princess and their would be no storyine without Twilight. This article is short, sweet, and to the point, and yet, it is very informative. --weyes Ise


 * 1) Not long enough. Not enough sources. Not that interesting. Not formated correctly. Not that important. Not a chance of being featured. 06:57, July 16, 2008 (UTC)
 * 2) No sources. 12:47, 16 July 2008 (UTC)
 * 3) Not a single reference, it's all one big section, and despite that it's short. 13:12, 16 July 2008 (UTC)

Medli
A really good article with lots of refrences.--Link hero of light 17:46, 26 April 2008 (UTC)


 * 1) This article has lot of references and it deserves the place.
 * 2) Alright, fine. I'm not going to waste my July vote, so I'll cast it for Medli. It's about as long as it's going to get without becoming tedious. --Felicia's Champion, 16:29, 16 July 2008 (EST)


 * 1) Hmm... This article doesn't have a lot of references. It is mostly references. It is much too short to be a featured article.--Matt 13:20, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
 * 2) I agree, the article is short and not very detailed and a ton of referencesPoe 23:21, 30 July 2008 (UTC)
 * 3) Yeah, I'm afraid this doesn't really cut it. And with only one valid (but half-hearted) positive vote in it's favour in more than three months, it's clearly never going to make it! 20:49, 7 August 2008 (UTC)

Tetraforce
i know its non-canon but its such a good article. well written and overall a perfect article. best on this whole site! remember the whole idea is to pick a well written article. it never said it was canon-exclusive. even fallen sage if its written well. some of you may be missing the point. NOBODY said it had to be canon. forget canon. this is a great article. im suprised im the only one who picked this.Dragonstetraforce 23:10, 7 September 2008 (UTC)


 * No, its fan-made, a rumor theory thing. i dont think it should be nominated. Luroberto
 * 1) I concur, the Tetraforce theory is non-canon and should therefore not be a main article. Even though it is well written and all, there are still other articles that should get first priority. Angmar
 * 2) The fact of the matter is, that this theory has no place in Zelda, other than fan-made rumours. According to Shigeru and Nintendo, it does not exist, so why feature something that doesn't exist? And if you want another reason, some of the sections are very short, three lines or less. No sources either, which immediately prevents it from being featured. Plus, it's just not appealing to look at, with a single tiny image of the Hylian Shield. At best, we should give this a mention on the Triforce page, which is already featured. --Felicia&#39;s Champion 21:52, 15 September 2008 (UTC)

=Failed Picture Nominations= The following sections are picture nominations that received at least three signed opposition votes.

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)

Toon Link
Cool picture from a cool game.--Article and Picture Voter 11:37, 3 April 2008 (EDT)


 * 1) Interesting. I think the Wind Waker graphics could use a bit of Twilight Princess dust, but 3D 'Toon Link looks rather cute. --Emeryn 19:41, 3 April 2008 (EDT)
 * 2) My little sister is one who nominated this, but sibling rivalry aside :), this is a pretty good picture.--Link hero of light 19:47, 3 April 2008 (EDT)
 * 3) I agree. this is a cool picture from a cool game! Let's feature it! --Seablue254 15:23, 4 April 2008 (EDT)
 * 4) Appart from this person being my username. This picture is clear and just awesome.--Toon Link 21:01, 4 April 2008 (EDT)
 * 5) One pick that definetly deserves to be featured.--The Legend of Zelda 00:34, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
 * 6) this picture should without a doubt be featured.--User:Gillispie 15:52, 14 April
 * 7) Toon link is cool and Wind waker is one of my favourite zelda games.--Olle93 20:51, 15 April
 * 8) He's my best Brawl character and my favorite Link incarnation--IceySheegoth11:24,28 April 2008 (PT)


 * 1) I really like this picture and think that it should eventually be a featured picture. But Brawl has been out for less than a month and I don't think we should have spoilers of this level on the main page. --Hisak 21:24, 3 April 2008 (EDT)
 * 2) I agree with Hisak. At this point of time, this is still spoiler worthy for those few Zelda fans who don't know about it.Mases 16:51, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
 * 3) Truthfully, I don't see the difference between any of the Smash Bros. pictures on this Wiki, besides the character standing in them. They're pretty standard pictures. I also agree with Hisak and Mases. At least feature it later on... --Yuvorias 12:57, 29 April 2008 (EST)

Zant Seated
The picture quality isn't the best, but I think the pure coolness (My opinion) makes up for it. --AmrasCalmacil 17:13, 5 April 2008 (EDT) P.S. - Sorry that the bottom of the picture juts slightly into the nomination below.


 * 1) i love Zant! He is probably one of the coolest bosses. And Twilight Princess was my first Zelda game. I love his story he tells you. --TwilightKing2
 * 2) As he recently became my favourite boss, I'll give my month's vote to Zant. It is an awesome picture. From the Wii, I notice. --Yuvorias


 * 1) The pictures a little too fuzzy --David (T : C) 21:12, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
 * 2) It's not a bad picture, but the quality could be a little better if it's to be featured... --Douken 22:04, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
 * 3) Yeah, although the quality is ok as screenshots go, it's still not really good enough for featured status. Plus, Zant is already a featured article, so I don't really think he qualifies as a featured picture nominee as well. --Adamcox82 05:31, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

Spinattack
One of the more epic Ocarina of Time pictures and one of Link's signiture attacks--Magnus orion 17:25, 26 March 2008 (EDT)


 * 1) This is a cool picture, and Deku Babas are so cool.--Article and Picture Voter 19:44, 1 April 2008 (EDT)


 * 1) Maybe if it was the original picture, but as this is a wallpaper made from the art, no TheManInTheMoon 07:32, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
 * 2) I'm with ManInTheMoon on this. --Douken 22:04, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
 * 3) Yeah, to be honest, the version which was initially nominated made me think immediately "no way". Then I reverted it to it's first and current version, and thought I'd leave it to others to make opinions first. However, I'm in agreement that in it's current form this image doesn't cut it.--Adamcox82 05:33, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

Master Sword
This picture of the Master Sword is breathtakingly beautiful, in my opinion. It deserves this status. --Mr. Mystery, 12:13, 9 May 2008 (EST)


 * 1) Yeah, I have to oppose this one. The article Master Sword is also nominated, and it looks like it'll pretty soon end up being featured. That being the case, this image will already be on the main page anyway! (Oh yeah, and also this image has already been featured pretty recently too! Need I go on?) --Adamcox82 21:10, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
 * 2) I have to agree with Adam on this. And apart from that, the is not all that great.--Link hero of light 22:54, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
 * 3) This image is not that good in quality. The only good thing in the image is the Master Sword. The quality of the sword in the March 24, 2008 image in much better.--Matt 04:03, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

Ganon vs. Link
Love it. --The Legend of Zelda 00:49, 11 May 2008 (UTC)


 * 1) I like the subject matter, and there really should be a featured pic of the final epic duel between Link and Ganondorf, but when I take a look at the full-sized image, it's just too blurry. When I played the game, I was fairly sure that I could make out more of Ganondorf's facial features than a couple of dots and a curved line for his eyes and mouth. For the time being, it's a no. If you could find a cleaned up version of it, I would certainly vote for it.
 * 2) I agree, it's definately more clear on the game. As soon as it's cleared up, it'll have my vote. --Mr. Mystery, 11:17, 11 May 2008 (EST)
 * 3) I don't think it should ever be featured, clear or not.--Link hero of light 02:03, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Darknut Duel
At the core of Zelda gameplay there are battles. This image perfectly captures that element in all games.--041744 04:16, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

Above image failed due to invalid nomination
 * 1) More duplicates? We've already very recently featured a picture of Link fighting Darknuts. While this is a nice image, it would have to wait until the other had been disqualified before a nomination would get anywhere. We have thousands of images here at ZW, surely we don't need to have repeats within a selection of the 16 best ones? --Adamcox82 07:21, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
 * 2) This should not have even been nominated. It does not have any templates. Also, there was already four images up for voting - at the time of its nomination. We don't need featured images similar to ones we already have.--Matt 08:52, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

King of red lions
This is a cool picture.--Article and Picture Voter 18:32, 11 May 2008 (UTC)


 * 1) I'm going to have to say no on this one. This image is too small. Also, there already is a featured picture with the King of Red Lions in it. In fact, the pose looks almost identical in both. and the other image is much larger.--Matt 22:05, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
 * 2) I'm saying no to it as well for all of the above reasons, plus the fact that there seems to be little to the picture itself. Okay, it's the KoRL in a generic pose, so what? A featured picture should capture the essence of the moment, like reuniting Anju and Kafei or link claiming the master sword, etc..--Rdnckj258 23:18, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
 * 3) Yeah, I find it kind of funny that almost directly below this image is an identical version of it included in another featured picture :) --Adamcox82 07:21, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

Twilt Bloat
This picture was cool before, but now that it has been cleared up, it's just amazing! This really deserves a feature.--Link hero of light 21:03, 29 April 2008 (UTC)


 * 1) It's official. This picture is so awesome it owns all the haters out there. --Seablue254 12:21, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
 * 2) Yeah, it took me soooooooo long to mess about with the wing edges adding transparency - It'd be nice to see this one featured ;) --Adamcox82 21:21, 27 May 2008 (UTC)
 * 3) I'll give it my vote. It is a nice picture. --Yuvorias, 9:52, 30 May 2008 (EST)
 * 4) Even before the image was touched up it seemed feature-worthy, so it definitely has my vote now. --Douken 19:56, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
 * 5) This picture is so detailed, and the beast is at an angle that perfectly reveals all of its best features. ^_^ --Fairy Boy, 10:06, 20 June 2008 (CST)


 * 1) try again. --The Legend of Zelda 02:50, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
 * 2) the thing is creepy and unusally is hard to beat it after you beat the a lot of times --Lightningtom 19:47, June 8, 2008 (UTC)
 * 3) I think it's pretty cool and very nice graphics but I don't know...--ZeldaGirl96 17:53, 17 June 2008 (UTC)
 * 4) If nominated, this would have been a "one out of many" image. We can't have that.--Mjr162006 17:56, 17 June 2008 (UTC)

Desert Colossus
Though not obvious or straightforward, the Desert Colossus seems to have a majestic yet subtle beauty breaking through the limitations of a Nintendo 64's specs. The goddess receives little attention, and I barely even noticed it on my first playthrough of Ocarina of Time, but this image perfectly captures a grace which so many eyes seem to miss... and for that, I believe it deserves to be featured. --Douken 19:54, 13 June 2008 (UTC)


 * 1) If it wasn't for the texturing on the cliff's I'd swear this was from a newer game, especially since I've missed it every time I've gone through OoT. This has my vote.

'''
 * 1) Even though the image is large, I not comfortable with featuring a screenshot from a game with such primitive graphics. I'm not seeing any of this beauty you speak of. I'm sure that others won't either. I am also uncomfortable with us featuring an image portraying a statue of a goddess that isn't even confirmed to exist in the "The Legend of Zelda universe." So I'm saying no. 20:33, June 24, 2008 (UTC)
 * 2) I'd been meaning to voice my opinion on this for a while. Don't get me wrong, I really like the image (I did upload it after all!). However, it's not actually an official image. As you'll see from the source link I added to the image page, it's from a fan-made high-res texture mod. In the light of the recent conflagratory mega-debate over fan-made content, I'm not about to base my objection solely on this fact. My problem is that the image is misleading; the actual in-game visual is more like this. 15:52, 28 June 2008 (UTC)
 * 3) I've also missed that in my first play through as well. The only problem with the picture is that it has been edited with federilli's (excuse me if I'm spelling this wrong) high resolution texture pack. Therefore it's treated as fan art and, as Adam has said, can be misleading.'''

Link's Evolution
A very cool and good sized picture depicting changes in how Link looks through the years 13:43, 1 July 2008 (UTC)


 * 1) Good! This is an excellent picture that shows Link's aspect in almost all of its games. It looks interesting and deserves the place. Molgeratwinmold55 13:10, 2 July 2008 (UTC)


 * 1) It’s a good picture, but I personally don’t think fan art should be used for the main page image. --Paulreilly86 14:11, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
 * 2) Sorry, Sea, but I've gotta oppose this. It's kind of neat to see the "progression" of Link, so to speak, but the picture itself isn't very cool-looking. Just a few pictures of Link pasted together. Kind of boring if you ask me. 15:58, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
 * 3) As Ando said: "Sorry, Sea". I have to oppose this too. It is a neat image in that it compares the differences of Link in the games. But a collage of images isn't exactly outstanding. It isn't what we are looking for in a featured picture. 16:10, July 6, 2008 (UTC)

Ganon
This form of Ganon is really cool and fearsome--Magnus orion 23:32, 8 May 2008 (UTC)


 * 1) 2 words Ganondorf rules. He is the coolest character in Zelda and Smash Bros. He rules.--Chaosmaster03, 11:50 4 June 2008 (EST)
 * 2) I'd like to see this one featured. IMO probably the best Ganon character design to date. 15:52, 28 June 2008 (UTC)
 * 3) I'd also like to see this one featured. Fairly large, high quality, and we need at least one featured picture of Ganon.--Rdnckj258 14:13, 29 June 2008 (UTC)
 * 4) Ganon is amazing. One of the baddest video game villans, if not, THE baddest video game villan ever.--Zeldagirl93 17:00, 1 July 2008 (EST)
 * 5) This picture is the awesomest! Just gives you the feel of Ganon being one of the baddest villains in Nintendo. You've gotta admit, Ganon is kinda cool!--Akki 23:54, 8 July 2008 (EST)
 * 6) I prefer this picture compared to the other one and since no-one's voted on either for a while. . . --AmrasCalmacil 11:04, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
 * 7) This would look nice on the main page, yes I could see this as a featured picture, and the art looks really nice, Zelda renders and hi-res photos always have the sparkle that catches my attention everytime.


 * 1) --Article and Picture Voter 18:32, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
 * 2) While this is a good picture, along with the one of Fyrus, and many similar Twilight Princess images; this is one of a set that is only set apart by the character in them, also there are two similar pictures already featured of Midna and Faron--Gillispie 7:41, 1 August 2008
 * 3) I really don't like how Gannon hands look that is my only fault with this picture but it puts me off the rest of it.Garadex 11:59, 6 August 2008 (UTC)

Link against Darknut
This picture was taken from The Minish Cap. The picture shows Link battling against a Darknut in Dark Hyrule Castle. I chose this picture because I like to fight against Darknuts because they look cool! --Draonjioel 20:35, 6 August 2008 (UTC)

'''Invalid nomination. Already failed just a few months ago (see above)''' 17:11, 7 August 2008 (UTC)

Master Sword
Since we are going for more of the out-of-the-ordinary featured images. I thought I'd nominate this one. It is a very large and detailed image of the Master Sword from A Link to the Past. This image is very beautiful and is quite breath-taking. It is a great image. It deserves to be featured. 22:59, August 16, 2008 (UTC)


 * 1) I think it is a beautiful picture, The Master Sword is something that draws my interest, it should be featured.-The Sage of Cosmos


 * 1) I'm afraid that I have to oppose this one. We have already Featured both the Master Sword article, and an image featuring the sword prominently. Adding this one would, in my view, put too much emphasis one one subject. I don't think we can really justify featuring an article and picture of the same subject under any circumstance. I would suggest that this image be used to replace the current one shown here; that way it can appear on the Main Page without having to be individually featured. 05:24, 19 August 2008 (UTC)
 * 2) My sentiments echo Adam's. I should know, I was the one who nominated the Article, as well as another image of the Master Sword that was soundly rejected. And this is far more boring than the one I nominated, in my view. At least the Empty Bottle was original. Also, there's a Link Vs Darknut image which is periodically disqualified from these nominations almost for the same reason as here. If we put this up, wouldn't that be kind of two-faced? --Felicia&#39;s Champion 02:31, 21 August 2008 (UTC)

Withdrawn by the nominating user.

Empty Bottle
Yes, it's simple. That's why I like it. It's also highly representative of the artistic style of The Wind Waker, as well as featuring one of the most sought after and valuable items in the Zelda series. Let's feature something a little unusual! (P.S. Thanks to MARKOL for the great render ;) 11:42, 10 August 2008 (UTC)


 * 1) I have to agree. Wind Waker does have great artwork. I love it. And bottles are a neccesity. I do like Twilight Princess and have never played Phantom Hourglass. But this bottle looks cool.CoreyPotter 00:59, 11 August 2008 (UTC)CoreyPotter
 * 2) Well.. yeah... it is a simple but beautiful image and i like it.Olle93 22:54, 11 August 2008


 * 1) While it is a high quality picture, I find that it is too boring to be featured. Other people would laugh when they saw that we featured an empty bottle.--Article and Picture Voter 20:04, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
 * 2) For the above reasons exactly. It's high quality, large, and representative of WW's style, but it's so simple that it's boring. When I think of a featured picture, I think of something that's interesting and captures the essence of a moment, like a big, scary boss that's screaming its head off. So, for me, it's a no.--Rdnckj258 18:00, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
 * 3) It's very high quality. It show's wind waker's cartoon touch, but it's just to boring. --Link hero of light 17:12, 20 August 2008 (UTC)

Toon Link (Again)
This picture failed before, but only because it is a spoiler. I think that Super Smash Bros. Brawl has been out long enough and most people have unlocked Toon Link by now.--Link hero of light 21:52, 23 August 2008 (UTC)


 * 1) Sorry, I have to oppose this again. Like I said last time, I find this picture very plain... --Felicia&#39;s Champion 09:07, 24 August 2008 (UTC)
 * 2) There's already a picture of him in the featured image "Link's Piggy Pals". I don't exactly think we need another one. 00:50, 27 August 2008 (UTC)
 * 3) Didn't we already feature a picture of Shiek that was almost exactly the same as this? It would just seem repetative.--Corey Lord of Tacos! 13:38, 31 August 2008 (UTC)


 * 2nd Failed attempt: See this 14:46, 31 August 2008 (UTC)

Twilight scene
In the interest of having at least something available to be voted on, I'm gonna suggest this image. To me, it's a visually interesting and dramatic composition that nicely shows off the graphical aspects of Twilight. 17:20, 6 August 2008 (UTC)


 * 1) I love it. It shows twilight princess' dark side.--Link hero of light 19:52, 7 August 2008 (UTC)
 * 2) It's gloomy, it's almost depressing, and it shows the most exciting thing about twilight princess the darkness in hyrule, I LOVE IT!--Onox13 21:27, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
 * 3) It's a very good picture, showing one of the many faces of Twilight Princess. As said above, it's a very dramatic scene and worthy of being featured. --Emeryn 18:54, 26 August 2008 (UTC)
 * 4) I think it's awesome. It shows how the Zelda series has steadily gotten more mature. Yay! --Hylian Wannabe 11:44, 30 August 2008 (UTC)
 * 5) I think it explains the plot of Twilight PrincessTalorules 01:08, 11 September 2008 (UTC)


 * 1) It just doesn't show Twilight Princess' awsomeness. Also it is kind of boring.CoreyPotter 20:02, 24 August 2008 (UTC)
 * 2) The picture doesn't really say anything about Twilight Princess. It's just too plain. Angmar 07:03, 5 September 2008 (UTC)Angmar
 * 3) It's a screenshot... and not even a good/rare/interesting one. It isn't featured on a page, not even a gallery or a user page, so that defeats the purpose of even having it here if you ask me. --Douken 18:39, 10 September 2008 (UTC)

Early Gohma
this is a beta version of gohma in tp. i love beta pictures but i never see them get featured. so to add some verity i nominate this awesome gohma beta model. imageine how hard it must be to get this stuff!!!!Dragonstetraforce 21:08, 18 September 2008 (UTC)


 * 1) As much as it is rare and interesting, it's also small and fairly low resolution.--Rdnckj258 18:45, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
 * 2) It's a little blurry too. There are several shots of "Beta TP" like this, so it would seem odd to just feature one anyway.  --Douken 20:33, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Yes, it is interesting. But look at our previous featured images. Now look at this one. There is no comparison. The quality of this is image is far too poor to ever be featured. The quality is so bad, that I highly doubt that either MARKOL or myself could improve the quality of this image to acceptable levels. This image also was not given a source. 00:55, October 3, 2008 (UTC)
