Storytelling Cleaned Up

I have cleaned up a lot of the storytelling in this article. I want to remove the story template. Please discuss. --Xizor 20:36, 2 November 2011 (EDT)

Why discussing something you already removed? Or are you expecting some congratulations? If no story filler is present, then just remove the template --User:K2L/sig 03:12, 3 November 2011 (EDT)

Because others may disagree. What a rude remark. Anyway, good job, Cip. Glad this article doesn't waste our readers' time anymore. --Xizor 06:03, 16 November 2011 (EST)

K2L, there are definitely better ways of talking to other editors (especially since he was simply asking about his template removal, and would return it to the page if there was dissent), you for one, should know this! :( As for wasting readers' time, Chris did write a lot of applicable information and content with relevance. Put simply, his verbose writing style clouded the meaning of what should have been simple sentences. I restructured many of the sentences with run-ons and the article's layout, while maintaining the relevant intention Chris had in the first place. Ironically, the length of the article now is about as short as it was the moment before Chris struck a pen to it! — cipriano^talk 22:27, 18 November 2011 (EST)

Sheikah Symbol

I think a list should be made of places the Sheikah symbol is seen without the teardrop. Such as the pillars in Veran's fight, the hilt of the Twilight Sword, the three posters in the Kakariko Shooting Gallery... Servantofgod (talk) 04:58, 17 December 2013 (UTC)

There is also the Eye Symbol page, where the distinction between the Sheikah Eye and other similar symbols is being made. Zeldafan1982 (talk) 00:17, 18 December 2013 (UTC)

Timeshift Stones

What I meant was that the symbol is not the Sheikah Eye, it merely resembles it. Veran for instance bears an eye symbol but it's not the one associated with the Sheikah. Zeldafan1982 (talk) 03:18, 9 June 2016 (UTC)

Veran's eye has an entirely different shape, whereas the symbol on the Timeshift Stones are clearly meant to be a more stylized version of the Sheikah Eye Symbol as it still retains the basic shape. If it's considered too different looking then I guess it could be left out. - Midoro ^{(T C)} 03:37, 9 June 2016 (UTC)

Monks? (and missing games)

We still have no actual evidence that the monks found in the shrines are ACTUALLY Sheikah. It's implied in many ways, but without any substantial evidence I don't think the monks should be listed ans 'Notable Sheikah.'

PS: Is there a reason only Ocarina of Time, Twilight Princess, Skyward Sword and Breath of the Wild are listed under games? The Sheikah are clearly present in other games.

The evidence is provided right there with a citation.

What sort of presence do they have in other games? User:Tony/sig 00:30, 16 January 2017 (UTC)

While the cannonity of Nate's words is questionable, I'll concede that point, assuming that he knows something we don't.

Impa HERSELF, being a Sheikah, is in the first two games, as well as the Oracle games, and Link Between Worlds. Is that not enough to count the Sheikah as part of the game?
