==Habertime Made Edits==
Hello mases I have made 25 plus edits and they fit all the requirements for the Link plush program. I have emailed and Skyped you but have received no response. I was wondering if I now qualify for a plush Link and if I do can you send it to me. I worked really hard on my edits and spent a lot of time making them as far as I am concerned correct. Please respond in some form soon, thanks.

I didn't make 20 edits, but the ones I did make for this are quite a bit bigger than the required 100. I also emailed you with my username. Hope that I made enough for the plush :D

His Mases,
Hi Mases,


I have edited various pages throughout the Wiki (mostly Majora's Mask and Minish Cap things). I was wondering, even if I have the required 2000 characters, do I still need to have 20 pages edited (I think I have around 15 now)? Thanks in advance!

Hey Mases, The wiki files only have photo files. However, I think the wiki should also except MP3 Files. This is because people who never played let's say, minish cap could listen to the mount crenal music. they could also hear sound effects like navi so they understand how annoying she is. (and it would make the site more wiki-like)!

== Making compact listings ==
Hey, im currently working on the location of every [[Hint Ghost]] and if you've checked you may have noticed the list is very long already due to that I don't know how to make the list more compact or something that will make it easier for users to scroll through the list, can you either make the list more compact or tell me so i can do it myself, which i would prefer as it would help me greatly --[[User:Alasor|Alasor]] ([[User talk:Alasor|talk]]) 04:53, July 31, 2014 (MDT)
== Help Contents suggestions/requests for screenshots, instructions ==
Hello,
I recently joined to start editing as I'm on this site quite a bit and thought I could help since I've been playing Zelda games since, well, 1990, I create web apps for a living (and am known for thorough help guides and documentation), I'm an adult with a 3DS...
I'm attempting understand what is needed and how to do it and am confused. I would like to request more detailed documentation on the various Help Pages.
==Screenshots for [[Help:Format|Format]] to Delineate Required Page Elements==
Can you please add screenshots to this page? For example, an annotated screenshot of the important parts of a properly formatted article would be a great resource.
Additionally, subsections with annotated screenshots for different types of pages would be nice. For example, see the below image.
[[File:WikiHelp Format EnemyPage.png|400px|thumb|right|example annotated page]]

==Clarification on the [[Zelda Dungeon Wiki:Current Projects]] Listings==
On the '''[[Zelda Dungeon Wiki:Current Projects]]''' page, a number of pages are listed that are being worked on, but the details on each are scant. Could the Admins please add notes about what is required? I attempted to compare the completed pages (e.g., <strike>[[The Legend of Zelda Story]]</strike>) with pages in progress (e.g., [[The Adventure of Link Bosses]]), and garnered a rough idea of what needs to be done, but am not sure. I'm assuming long-standing editors will know what to do, but for those of us who are new, it'd help us be more efficient.
For example, this could be something as simple as...
*[[The Adventure of Link Bosses]] -- make this page look like <strike>[[The Legend of Zelda Bosses]]</strike>
::Thanks Rusty. Yes, we really need to clear that up. A lot of those ongoing projects were lingering from way back when we first launched the Wiki or within the first year. I'm going to clean that up when I get some time. [[User:Mases|Mases]] ([[User talk:Mases|talk]]) 23:01, December 27, 2014 (UTC)
==Proper Linking/Navigation Structures==
This will probably be learned after more editing, but a Site Map-like Help page would be nice. This is more along the lines of Format, but showing how child pages are related to parent pages.
==Other Help Page Ideas==
Other suggestions include fixing the side navigation Help link to actually link to the Help page and adding more templates.
If you need help with this or the above suggested edits/additions, let me know and I can also work on these help pages.

Hello Mases,
I've been using your website for quite a long time now (since I started playing Ocarina of Time 3D) but I just signed up for an account here and would be very happy to participate in your giveaway!

== Giveaway ==
Hey I heard about the giveaway and I made more than 25 contributions, and I'm glad I did, because the phantom hourglass and spirit tracks pages were lacking in some information. I want someone to check my work so I can know if I'm eligible for the giveaway.
:Your edits looks decent. Could use some work, but off to a great start. You are almost there. Can you contact me via email so I can get your information. Email me at [email protected]. Thanks. [[User:Mases|Mases]] ([[User talk:Mases|talk]]) 23:11, November 18, 2015 (UTC)
== In Search for a Role ==
Hi Mases,
I would like to help out with Zelda Dungeon into making it a more helpful site for everyone, but unfortunately I can't access my e-mail or my Skype due to some personal reasons, but I would still like to help with the site, is there anyway I am able to speak to you about that?
:We use Discord or Skype to chat. You will need to be able to contact me somewhere to talk privately. You can email me at [email protected], find me on Facebook, message the Zelda Dungeon page on Facebook, or sign up and private message me on the forums. Or if you have another way of contacting me, that's fine, just let me know. [[User:Mases|Mases]] ([[User talk:Mases|talk]]) 17:47, August 1, 2016 (UTC)
== Item infobox ==
I started a discussion about the item infobox at [[Template_talk:Infobox]]. I'm not sure how many people would normally see that, though, so I also wanted to leave this comment about it on the userpages of admins and some other editors who seem to have shown interest in templates.

== Contact Page Location? ==
Hey, so, I saw the thing about looking for people with knowledge in PHP, HTML, CSS, and MediaWiki on the FAQ. It mentions a Contact page, but I haven't seen any sign that it exists. I believe I meet the desired knowledge for HTML and CSS, and the other two shouldn't be too difficult for me to learn. It seems silly to me to apply when I'm only an autoconfirmed, but I want to help make the wiki the best it can be. Can you at least direct me to this contact page? I'd appreciate it.

== Link's  movements ==
I'm having trouble with Link movements he never stays still. Can you help me. I have Breath of the wild on switch. I have tried calibrating the controllers. Thank you.
:I'm sorry. I'm not sure I can help you with that. Likely a controller issue. Maybe the joysticks are stuck in. [[User:Mases|Mases]] ([[User talk:Mases|talk]]) 02:00, August 5, 2019 (UTC)
== Helping hand ==
Hi, I'm Auri. I am very good at fixing English grammar. It may be useful for me to do so on articles that need my assistance. I'm glad to be part of your community. I am looking forward to hearing from you! --[[User:Auri|Auri]] ([[User talk:Auri|talk]]) 02:58, January 11, 2020 (UTC)
== BotW interactive map: resetting completion does not work ==
Hey, I just started a new BotW run, and resetting the completion data in the map didn't work for me. It looks like it works (because client side shows all available data once you click "Clear completion data"), but after a while, it gets loaded again. I looked at the ongoing network connections, and resetting data sends a POST request to the server. It receives a HTTP 200 response, but the response says:
<code>{"error":{"code":"nomarkers","info":"The \"markers\" parameter must be set.","*":"See https://www.zeldadungeon.net/wiki/api.php for API usage. Subscribe to the mediawiki-api-announce mailing list at &lt;https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-api-announce&gt; for notice of API deprecations and breaking changes."}}</code>
When I edit the sent request and set "markers" to "on", it works. Hope this is something that's easy to fix with the details provided.
::Thanks, that info was helpful! It should be fixed now. {{User:Locke/sig}} 19:39, January 14, 2020 (UTC)
== Enemy Layout ==
Hello Mases,
Just wondering, when putting Enemies of wiki pages how are they layed out?
Is it Alphabetically, by type, or by when you would first encounter this enemy in a normal playthrough of the game?
Please let me know.
Link Mario [[User:Link Mario|Link Mario]] ([[User talk:Link Mario|talk]]) 15:27, June 5, 2020 (UTC)
:Generally for any kind of listing or gallery, it is done alphabetically. [[User:Mases|Mases]] ([[User talk:Mases|talk]]) 16:54, June 5, 2020 (UTC)
Okay.
Thank you. [[User:Link Mario|Link Mario]] ([[User talk:Link Mario|talk]]) 18:59, June 5, 2020 (UTC)
One other question,
How do I load in my own pictures?
I recently created four pages about the Deku Stick and Deku Nut upgrades in Ocarina of time, and would like to put in some pictures of Link receiving the upgrades. [[User:Link Mario|Link Mario]] ([[User talk:Link Mario|talk]]) 19:01, June 5, 2020 (UTC)
:You can upload files using the [[Special:Upload]], which is on the left sidebar as ''Upload File''. Alternatively, while editing a page, we have mass-upload where you can drag an image onto the page at the top of the editor, where it says ''Drop Files Here''.
Okay,
Thanks [[User:Link Mario|Link Mario]] ([[User talk:Link Mario|talk]]) 13:00, June 6, 2020 (UTC)
== Legacy page conversion ==
Just out of curiosity, did we finish the legacy page conversion talked about in the Current Projects area? I'm looking for more ways to help the wiki. --[[User:TheDoctor8910|TheDoctor8910]] ([[User talk:TheDoctor8910|talk]]) 02:35, June 7, 2020 (UTC)
:We haven't finished everything, but we've hit a huge chunk of it. Still some lingering Twilight Princess and Skyward Sword pages. [[User:Mases|Mases]] ([[User talk:Mases|talk]]) 02:52, June 7, 2020 (UTC)
So, the main problem with the Twilight Princess Bosses page is that, since it's legacy, there doesn't appear to be a way to insert a redirect to the category. Someone will have to modify the link on the navigation bar, which would be done by someone who can remote link in to the physical server, unless you know of a way for me to stick a redirect into the legacy page. --[[User:TheDoctor8910|TheDoctor8910]] ([[User talk:TheDoctor8910|talk]]) 12:12, June 7, 2020 (UTC)
== Stub Articles ==
Hello Mases,
I was looking through the list of "Stub Articles" and added information to two of them, namely, 'Zora Link' and 'Beaver Race'. If I have added all the available information (information that I have found or information that I have learned through my playthrough of that game), should I remove "stub" from the top of the page?
I did this with the two stub articles above. If you would like me to I can put "stub" back at the top of the pages.
Link Mario [[User:Link Mario|Link Mario]] ([[User talk:Link Mario|talk]]) 14:35, June 7, 2020 (UTC)
This is just my observation, but I think Zora Link fits outside the conditions that would make it a stub. Beaver Race is the same way, although you need to fix the gallery images. Of course, Mases probably knows your answer better than I do. --[[User:TheDoctor8910|TheDoctor8910]] ([[User talk:TheDoctor8910|talk]]) 11:58, June 8, 2020 (UTC)
Okay.
I keep trying to get the pictures in [[Beaver Race]] to show up, but it keeps saying "NO IMAGE AVAILABLE".
Any ideas as to how that can be fixed? [[User:Link Mario|Link Mario]] ([[User talk:Link Mario|talk]]) 14:56, June 8, 2020 (UTC)
Check the file. The wiki interprets everything literally. You may have a capital letter where it shouldn't be or you put jpg when it should be png. It's a easy mistake to make. If that doesn't help, I'll take a look. --[[User:TheDoctor8910|TheDoctor8910]] ([[User talk:TheDoctor8910|talk]]) 15:46, June 8, 2020 (UTC)
Okay. Try looking at the gallery code on [[Crazy Tracy]]. I haven't seen the style you're using in at least three years. I don't mean to be rude, it's just that code is not used on most pages, and may be outdated. --[[User:TheDoctor8910|TheDoctor8910]] ([[User talk:TheDoctor8910|talk]]) 15:56, June 8, 2020 (UTC)
Oh, Okay.
Thanks.
I forgot to put

== Cadence of Hyrule New Project Request ==
So, I decided I'm going to start working on adding Cadence of Hyrule content pages, but there's really a lot to do. If it wouldn't be too much trouble for you, could you make an announcement on the Main Page letting people know about the project. If not, that's okay. I just want to improve the wiki more than just small things. --[[User:TheDoctor8910|TheDoctor8910]] ([[User talk:TheDoctor8910|talk]]) 15:28, June 8, 2020 (UTC)
:Awesome job. This does need to some work, and yes, I think we can bring some attention to this. [[User:Mases|Mases]] ([[User talk:Mases|talk]]) 16:22, June 8, 2020 (UTC)
Thank you! I've dedicated a section of my talk page to the project, so let everyone know they can check there to find out how they can help. --[[User:TheDoctor8910|TheDoctor8910]] ([[User talk:TheDoctor8910|talk]]) 16:28, June 8, 2020 (UTC)
Another thing I feel like I could do to help out is helping new users get the hang of editing pages. Is there any way I can help with that? --[[User:TheDoctor8910|TheDoctor8910]] ([[User talk:TheDoctor8910|talk]]) 18:02, June 8, 2020 (UTC)
My main concern right now is about whether enough people will notice the announcement once you post it. I admit that I usually leave Zeldadungeon open so I can get back quickly. It also means I rarely pass through the main page. Let's just hope enough people see it. --[[User:TheDoctor8910|TheDoctor8910]] ([[User talk:TheDoctor8910|talk]]) 21:27, June 9, 2020 (UTC)
Due to the project's enormous size, I'm holding off on continuing until we get more people involved. --[[User:TheDoctor8910|TheDoctor8910]] ([[User talk:TheDoctor8910|talk]]) 23:32, June 9, 2020 (UTC)
== Cadence of Hyrule Project Patrolling ==
It has occurred to me that Cadence of Hyrule may be this far behind because it got very little attention when it was released. Judging by the number of patrollers Zeldadungeon has, it's possible that none of them have played it. If one has, that's great, no worries then. If that's the case, while anyone can check the content for accuracy, no one can mark the edits as patrolled. Worst case scenario, either one of the patrollers will have to get the game, or Zeldadungeon may need a new patroller. What do you think? --[[User:TheDoctor8910|TheDoctor8910]] ([[User talk:TheDoctor8910|talk]]) 14:15, June 10, 2020 (UTC)
:I think almost all the staff here has played the game. We've had a LOT more editors in the last few months compared to this time last year when the game came out though. So I think we were a bit behind. The Wiki is a lot more popular now. I think the best approach would be to take Cadence in small doses. You don't have to work on the whole game, but can take something small and specific, say the levels, or bosses. Something bite sized and try to make those the best they can be. [[User:Mases|Mases]] ([[User talk:Mases|talk]]) 14:58, June 10, 2020 (UTC)
Ah, okay. I'll get back to it while I wait for you to announce the project. --[[User:TheDoctor8910|TheDoctor8910]] ([[User talk:TheDoctor8910|talk]]) 15:02, June 10, 2020 (UTC)

== Ocarina of Time additional Category ==
Hello Mases,
I was adding certain ocarina of time Item Upgrade pages to the "Ocarina of Time Items" category, and was wondering if it would be better to create an "Ocarina of Time Item Upgrades" category.
If there is already such a category, please let me know. I was unable to find one. Otherwise please let me know your thoughts. I am not sure if I have the permission to create categories.
Thanks.
:Perhaps. That could work. Let me check with the rest of the team to see what they think. [[User:Mases|Mases]] ([[User talk:Mases|talk]]) 17:09, June 16, 2020 (UTC)
Okay.
Thanks.
It could work with other games too. [[User:Link Mario|LinkMario14235]] ([[User talk:Link Mario|talk]]) 17:44, June 16, 2020 (UTC)
Hello Mases,
Just wondering if you were able to check with the other members of your team about adding Item Upgrades categories.
I specifically mentioned ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'', but this category could work with all other Zelda games because they have at least some type of upgrade like bomb or arrow upgrades.
The only game that I think has no item upgrades is ''[[Zelda II: The Adventure of Link]]'' which, besides the health, attack, and magic power upgrades, I don't think has any item upgrades (I haven't played very much of it).
Let me know if the categories will work. It would take a while before all of the item upgrades for each game were under their respective category. I can start work on it as soon as the category is created.
Also, if you need me to make a list of every game that needs this category, I would be happy to.
Please let me know.
Link Mario [[User:Link Mario|Link Mario-14235]] ([[User talk:Link Mario|talk]]) 14:44, June 23, 2020 (UTC)
Hello Mases,
I have compiled a list of all the Zelda Games that could have the aforementioned category. I am not sure if you count remakes and originals as the same game. The list has every Zelda Game on [[The Legend of Zelda (Series)]] page, and states whether or not it has item upgrades.
Let me know if you need the list. I am not sure if creating a new category is something that an Autoconfirmed User can create a category. Let me know if there is more that I can help with. [[User:Link Mario|Link Mario-14235]] ([[User talk:Link Mario|talk]]) 17:11, June 23, 2020 (UTC)
== I'm back... sort of ==
Hi, sorry that we haven't communicated in like two years. A lot has happened between that time, and I've decided to sort of return to this wiki. Is it ok that I made a ''[[Mario]]'' article about the franchise itself? I've been exposing the connections between ''Zelda'' and ''Mario'', and there's so many to the point where I want to consider the two as being loosely part of the same franchise, lol.
