'''Locke''' is a Zelda Dungeon Wiki administrator. I mostly concern myself with the wiki content infrastructure, such as {{Catlink|Categories}} and {{Catlink|Templates}}, and I'm also responsible for converting resources such as {{Catlink|Interviews}} from their old site pages to their new home on the wiki. On the [http://zeldadungeon.net/forum/forum.php DGN Forums], I am a moderator specializing in the [http://zeldadungeon.net/forum/f31/ Zelda Theory] sub-forum.

*{{Temlink|Box}} — As an effort to standardize the appearance of side content, this meta-template is used by many other formatting templates.
* {{Temlink|Box}} — As an effort to standardize the appearance of side content, this meta-template is used by many other formatting templates.

*{{Temlink|Navbox}} — This meta-template is used for the footer navigation boxes.
* {{Temlink|Navbox}} — This meta-template is used for the footer navigation boxes.
*{{Temlink|MagicNavbox}} — I'm particularly proud of this version of Navbox, which in just one template (two if you count {{Temlink|CD}}) automatically creates scores of footer navigations using just a few inputs.
* {{Temlink|Dump}} — In addition to bringing all the text dumps to the wiki, I created this template to retrieve individual quotes from said dumps so as to reduce copy errors and enforce validity.

* {{Temlink|Caption}} — Caption templates work with the Dump template to automatically retrieve Fi/Navi/etc. captions according to an article's title.
*{{Temlink|Caption}} — Caption templates work with the Dump template to automatically retrieve Fi/Navi/etc. captions according to an article's title.
* {{Temlink|Ref}} and {{Temlink|References}} — These templates replace the Cite extension's <nowiki><ref> and <references /></nowiki> tags to work around some bugs and to make the code easier to use.
*<strike>{{Temlink|Cite}} — Right now, this merely enforces a standard format on references. Work is in progress to transform this template into a self-contained versatile reference system, replacing the Cite extension currently used (which uses <nowiki><ref> and <references /></nowiki> tags).</strike>
* {{Temlink|Tabs}} — One use of the alternative tab framework I created in order to support multiple tabsets jointly affecting one target.
*<strike>{{Temlink|Foreach}} — I had a lot of fun with this template and am very happy with how potentially useful it is. It was created to help display several quotes in a row using Dump, but it works with many other templates as well, invoking several instances of the given template in sequence using a given set of values.</strike>
* {{Temlink|Galbox}} and {{Temlink|Listbox}} — These templates take just the name of a listing page as input and use Lua to parse that page and generate a Navbox.
*{{Temlink|Ref}} and {{Temlink|References}} — These templates replace the Cite extension's <nowiki><ref> and <references /></nowiki> tags, as well as <nowiki>{{Cite}}</nowiki>.

A vast majority of my playthroughs are 100%. I've never done a 3-heart challenge, but I may consider it at some point. Most of the games I have played only once, but a few I haven't kept track of. Rankings (i.e. my relative opinion) probably aren't accurate.

This is the timeline that I created and supported pre-Historia. Since the official timeline was released, this no longer matters, but I still like my timeline a bit better than the official one.

This is the timeline that I created and supported pre-Historia, updated with recent games. It supports the three-way split after OoT, but instead of the cop-out "what-if", I use a retcon of sorts: LttP was the sequel to OoT until WW bumped it out of the way, then FSA replaced OoT as LttP's prequel. The stories along the vertical axis, i.e. in the same era but on different timelines, match up quite nicely. I believe my timeline is still relevant because the developers view the "official" timeline as an interpretation of what's known of the history and still up for debate:
<pre>
Fujibayashi: Lately within the company, a term called ‘New Translation’ has cropped up. (laughs) Strictly speaking, we don’t change it, but rather new information and truths come to light.
Famitsu: I see, so the way to interpret the lore of Breath of the Wild is still up for academic debate. (laughs)
Fujibayashi: That’s why you should pay attention to future studies as well! Please look forward to it. (laughs)
