Talk:Sacred Songs

Merge into one page

I propose merging the three songs of the goddesses into one page (perhaps titled Songs of the Goddesses) because these pages are small and...well, I don't see them getting bigger. They don't really serve much purpose other than opening the trial gates once.User:Justin/sig 16:32, 8 December 2012 (UTC)

Merging sounds like a good idea, but I'm not sure about the name. To my knowledge, "Songs of the Goddesses" is not an official term, and I'd rather we avoid use of conjectural titles if possible. The official guide refers to each of them as being "sacred songs"... There's no caps, so it's more of an attribution than an actual title, but it seems fitting because the Tears of Farore, Nayru, and Din are collectively known as the "Sacred Tears" and the three flames are collectively known as the "Sacred Flames". So how about "Sacred Songs"? It's still semi-conjectural, but... — Hylian King ^[*] 17:32, 8 December 2012 (UTC)

I'd go with merging them into a page titled "Sacred Songs" but shall we add the Song of the Hero on that page (as it's the song of the forth dragon, Levias, as well as necessary to open the Skyloft Silent Realm) or just keep it as it is? User:Darkness/sig 17:35, 8 December 2012 (UTC)

I completely forgot about that. Yeah, I'd be down for adding that, too. Sacred Songs is fine, I just didn't know what the canon term was.User:Justin/sig 18:16, 8 December 2012 (UTC)

Yeah, I guess so. And I wouldn't say it's fully canon, but if we're going to merge these pages it's the best we have... I guess it comes down to what we think is worse: having a few stubby pages, or one decent page with a title that's barely canon. — Hylian King ^[*] 18:25, 8 December 2012 (UTC)

Does anyone think that this is a good start for the article? I'm not too good with adding .ogg files into pages, so I just collected the needed songs. User:Darkness/sig 18:53, 8 December 2012 (UTC)

I like the basic design. It needs to be touched up a bit (your wording is a little poor in some places, like They are known as Nayru's Wisdom, Farore's Courage, and Din's Power, and the Song of the Hero.), but I think it's a good format. The songs can be placed on the page in their individual sections, too. User:Justin/sig 19:09, 8 December 2012 (UTC)

I was lazy and I forgot to remove the extra "and", but any more cases of "poor wording" that I shall fix? 19:16, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
