::::The problem isn't the motives, really. It's how you have tried to do the changes. There was no need to zap the Timeline Placement sections of the games and then replace them with a completely different section. You could have worked upon the pre-existing section and expand it accordingly to the changes you felt would benefit the pages. That's what I had meant by "hasty editing". I know every user has a different way to contribute to the wiki, but a good rule of thumb is to always take what's already on the table and then make the changes, corrections and additions, rather than discarding it without a reason. So hey, no one's trying to stomp you, we know you're excited, and it's understandable since the very last thing we all expected was the reveal of the timeline. But give time to things, it's not the end of the world. Proceed with a smooth pace. --{{:User:K2L/sig}} 19:15, 5 January 2012 (EST) | ::::The problem isn't the motives, really.

== Permanently Missable Items == | |||
I think you were a little harsh in your edit summary, and you deleted several things you shouldn't have. Many people have different definitions of 100%, and some consider a missed small chest or destructible barrier to be an unacceptable blemish on a file, and feel they are forced to restart to get a perfect game. | |||
Maybe your definition isn't as strict, but you must understand that the Zelda series does attract a lot of OCD-type completionists, so a lot of those entries you took out should be left in for their benefit. | |||
For example, Minish Cap Library - the chest in question is frozen, and you have to leave it on your first visit. You have to remember to come back later to thaw it out, but if you leave it too long, you're permanently locked out of the area. It contains 200 Mysterious Shells I think, and people get very annoyed if they realise later on that they'd forgotten to go back and get it. So this sort of thing should definitely stay on the page.
