:If you're going to make an article for an area, I would base them using a template from a similar area. It looks like [[Gloom's Approach]] is the closest one, you just need to copy the contents of the source (in the edit page) then paste it into the article you want to create, then change all the respective values and descriptions to match what is accurate for Gloom's Lair and Gloom's Origin, and remove anything that is irrelevant before saving. --[[User:Charitwo|Charitwo]] ([[User talk:Charitwo|talk]]) 18:20, August 13, 2023 (UTC) | |||
== map question == | |||
Hey, I just joined literally two seconds ago, with the sole purpose of pointing out that there is no Cave Entrance marker on Rabac Island, north of Darunia Lake, near the Jiotak Shrine. I've been using the ZD.net map to hunt down Bubul Gems by cave entrance markers, and found one I had on *MY* map, that was not on the ZeldaDungeon.net TotK Map. I dont know shit about editing a wiki or none of that, and im high af right now so you dont want me messing anything up like that, but I just thought yall should know you're missing one. | |||

Yall also need one at -3214, 2464, 0348 Talonto Peak Cave. Okay, deuces [[User:TheAstonishingOddBall|TheAstonishingOddBall]] ([[User talk:TheAstonishingOddBall|talk]]) 17:44, February 10, 2024 (UTC) | |||
:and [[totkmap:Cave_Hebra_0026|this one]]? This entrance could be partially obscured by the [[Crossing the Cold Pool]] side quest marker depending on your zoom level. --[[User:Charitwo|Charitwo]] ([[User talk:Charitwo|talk]]) 18:37, February 10, 2024 (UTC) | |||

== About my Link (Hero of Time) page move == | |||
I apologize for moving the page. I felt that the new title would be more appropriate, given that this version of Link appears in both OOT and MM while also making appearances in other games and media; therefore, I decided the best way to organize the article was to change the name. I will change it back. {{unsigned|User talk:Xelleak|20:26, February 19, 2024}} | |||

[[File:Image 2024-02-26 170714753.png|thumb]] | |||
I think I did something in the TOTK interactive map, and now the color scheme for Zelda Dungeon is different - its now brown with dark green, almost like a dark mode of the regular format, and I cannot figure out how to change it back. Attached is an image of my current look - I would appreciate it if I knew how to revert to the normal style. {{unsigned|Xelleak|17:05, February 26, 2024}} | |||
:You may have to go to your [[Special:Preferences|preferences]] and reset the settings to see if that fixes the issue. Based on what I can see you are using the same skin as everyone else and do not have any custom CSS loaded in your userspace. | |||

== Page-moving permissions == | |||
Hello, I have recently updated the page on the [[Sages' Medallions]] to more thoroughly explain each one. I feel that the pages for the individual Medallions are too small and aren't detailed enough, but after the debacles with the Hero of Time and Fairy Slingshot pages, I reckoned I should ask your permission first. Am I allowed to turn the pages for the individual Sage Medallions into redirect pages? --- [[User:Xelleak|Xelleak]] ([[User talk:Xelleak|talk]]) 18:26, March 16, 2024 | |||
:I don't think unilaterally redirecting them is a good approach. There are a lot of articles on the wiki which could use more information, or can be perceived as not having a whole lot in comparison to other articles, however that does not necessarily mean they need to be removed/redirected. It would also be detrimental to search ranking for [https://www.google.com/search?q=oot+light+medallion every] [https://www.google.com/search?q=oot+forest+medallion single] [https://www.google.com/search?q=oot+fire+medallion one] [https://www.google.com/search?q=oot+water+medallion of] [https://www.google.com/search?q=oot+shadow+medallion those] [https://www.google.com/search?q=oot+spirit+medallion articles], if someone happens to search for them. We want to improve our rankings against our competition, not diminish it. We can do that by improving the articles. --[[User:Charitwo|Charitwo]] ([[User talk:Charitwo|talk]]) 18:42, March 16, 2024 (UTC) | |||
== Permission to delete a redirect == | |||
I noticed that the page for the [[Light Sword]] has a redirect, '''Light Sword (Hyrule Warriors)''', when the Light Sword's only appearance is in ''Hyrule Warriors''. I was wondering if you could delete it, as the redirect is completely unnecessary. --- [[User:Xelleak|Xelleak]] ([[User talk:Xelleak|talk]]) 16:20, March 20, 2024 | |||
:It looks like it was created because it was and is still linked from another article. --[[User:Charitwo|Charitwo]] ([[User talk:Charitwo|talk]]) 16:44, March 20, 2024 (UTC) | |||
:That was a link I made while editing the [[Lokomo Sword]] page because I thought the Light Sword was a non-Hyrule Warriors item. I have deleted the link, so could you now delete the redirect, please? --- [[User:Xelleak|Xelleak]] ([[User talk:Xelleak|talk]]) 17:00, March 21, 2024 | |||
::The redirect doesn't really hurt or affect anything, and there's zero benefit to deleting it, but since it's not linked from anywhere, I suppose I can. --[[User:Charitwo|Charitwo]] ([[User talk:Charitwo|talk]]) 17:08, March 21, 2024 (UTC) | |||
==Request to become Content Manager== | |||
I have noticed while using this wiki that there are a lot of redirect pages which I believe to be "unnecessary" - as in, they are not very useful because the redirect is either a misspelling, or so long that you would come up with the correct page title first. For example, if I were to type "Arrow" into the search bar, I would find the following results: Arrow, Arrow Aimer/Orb, Arrow x10, Arrow x5, Arrows, Arrows Of Burning Heat, Arrows of Burning Heart, and more. The "Arrows (plural)" is not needed because you would have typed "Arrow" first. The "Arrow (quantity)" results are completely unnecessary since you would just type in Arrow. And the final two redirect to a BotW side quest, the latter of which is a misspelling, while the former contains a grammatical error and would display a separate result from the correct side quest (which has already shown up). | |||
I wish to get rid of these redirects to clear up the search bar and make using this wiki easier (hence why I requested you delete the "Lokomo Sword (Hyrule Warriors" redirect earlier), and so I would like to request to become a Content Monitor or Administrator (whichever role can delete pages and is reasonable). I do have the Zelda Dungeon discord, in case you would like to contact me there, and I will understand if the answer is no. --- [[User:Xelleak|Xelleak]] ([[User talk:Xelleak|talk]]) 22:50, May 14, 2024 | |||
:Hey Xelleak, we don't really have a process for users to request elevated permissions. Generally, the staff select people we feel would be good candidates. Your contributions here definitely don't go unnoticed, however! | |||
:I am happy to make time to address any housekeeping items though, usually there is a specific niche reason for some items being used as redirects. Keep in mind that the search suggestions drop-down is sometimes unrelated to why we might have a redirect, including but not limited to the user pasting search terms in the search bar or a technical issue preventing the suggestions from showing. | |||
:I would also like to note that redirects appearing in search results or suggestions is a "feature" and a noted pain point.{{Ref|https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T90807}}{{Ref|https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T64680}}{{Ref|https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T204089}} | |||
:We can start with the above examples: | |||
:* Arrow Orb: Generally, the article should be named after how it appears in-game or in an official guidebook. A redirect from one to another is warranted if it is useful. Useful is subjective of course and up to interpretation. | |||
:* Arrow x5/Arrow x10: These exist due to the interactive map (along with similar examples as the map is designed to drive traffic to the wiki), and we want to avoid users being sent to a non-existent page from the map.{{Ref|[[totkmap:Treasure0023|Arrow x5]]}}{{Ref|[[totkmap:Treasure0019|Arrow x10]]}} | |||
:* Arrows: This (and similar) is/are needed because sometimes people for type [[Arrows]] and not realize they can use '''<nowiki>[[Arrow]]s or [[Arrow|Arrows]]</nowiki>''' instead. It's mostly harmless and experienced editors can come along and fix the links. | |||
:* Arrows of Burning Heart/Arrows Of Burning Heat: I agree these are unneeded so I've deleted them. | |||

:EDIT: Would also like to note, if you're in our discord, let me know who you are so I can make sure you have our wiki editor role to recognize you for your contributions. --[[User:Charitwo|Charitwo]] ([[User talk:Charitwo|talk]]) 01:01, May 15, 2024 (UTC) | |||
