Zelda Dungeon Wiki:Featured Image Nominations
Process
An image is nominated here, and the nominator describes why the image is worthy of featuring in short intro which they then sign with their signature. The image should be included as a thumbnail the section header. Followed by subsections Support and Oppose. Each section will have a numbered list of people stating briefly why they support or oppose the image. Support and opposition votes count towards a running total, with support votes adding to the total and opposition votes subtracting from it. The initial nomination does not count towards the total. When the image is at positive or negative five points for at least a week, the voting is considered finalized. Anyone can retract their opposition votes if they believe that their concerns about the image have been met.
Rules
- Personal like or dislike of the subject is not valid grounds for approving or disapproving of an image's nomination.
- Each person gets vote once for or against each nomination.
- Sign each vote with your signature using ~~~~ and place it at the end of your vote on the same line, failing to do so breaks automatic numbering.
- Using multiple accounts to vote warrants an immediate three month ban on the main account and permanent ban on the alternates.

Gate of Time Pattern.png
This is the pattern found on the Gate of Time. Featuring the Triforce and the Crests of the Goddesses, this is a very iconic image. It's ripped straight from the game so it's the highest possible quality. << Locke(T·C) >> 01:56, February 26, 2013 (CST)

- The pattern found on the Gate of Time is absolutely beautiful. Being a large image and very iconic, this image is one of Zelda Dungeon Wiki's best. What's is one place to feature it? None other than the Main Page itself. :) Odd300 :) 05:33, March 3, 2013 (CST)
- This is a very excellent image. The Gate of Time is a gorgeous symbol with several important elements of the Zelda series included on it. The fact that it is a high quality image only makes it better. I agree completely that it deserves to be featured. Heroine of Time 15:10, March 10, 2013 (CDT)
- While there are much more impressive images featuring this same pattern (and I would encourage those to be considered in the future), this image is impressive in that it is a perfect render of the pattern itself, taken straight from the game. It'd be worthy of a feature as, honestly, it's a rare resource. --Axle the Beast 02:59, May 8, 2013 (CDT)

HH-Timeline.png
Here's a great scan of the official timeline in the HH. It's a very historic image, representing the culmination of the series continuity. Most of our timeline-related articles are based on the Eras outlined on this page. << Locke(T·C) >> 10:55, March 6, 2013 (CST)
Support
- I support this image on the grounds of its overall significance. The scan of the page is of very high quality. Mases 12:10, March 6, 2013 (CST)
- Great quality image and I think it's perfect for the Timeline page, due to the high interest among Zelda fans in the official timeline I think this image will be very useful to visitors. Justac00lguy 09:27, May 2, 2013 (CDT)
- This scan is excellent. Its quality alone makes it worth a nomination, but the fact that it shows the entire history of the series in one page, makes it a sure-thing for nomination. Fused shadows 13:41, May 4, 2013 (CDT)
Oppose
- While this image is of course significant, and it's a high-quality scan, the content is sort of meaningless as a picture feature. This is basically just a bunch of useful information, and that kind of thing doesn't make for a good image; it would make more sense to feature a timeline article instead, or to feature a more impressive but still timeline or Hyrule Historia themed image. A featured picture should be cool-looking, not just mostly information. --Axle the Beast 03:02, May 8, 2013 (CDT)

800px-Miniblinattack.jpg
Official scene artwork from The Wind Waker of Link battling Miniblins in the Forsaken Fortress. It's an action-packed, stylish piece of artwork, depicting gameplay events rather than story scenes, and the timing would be nice considering the upcoming HD remake of The Wind Waker. --Axle the Beast 03:26, May 8, 2013 (CDT)

ALttp_Link_Resting.jpg
Official illustration of A Link to the Past's Link resting, and a 25th anniversary piece it would seem, given the anniversary logo in the corner. It's an extremely high-quality piece of artwork in general, both in terms of the image quality and the construction of the original piece, and it's unique in that it shows Link at rest. It would be cool to feature A Link to the Past artwork like this, given the upcoming sequel to the game. --Axle the Beast 03:26, May 8, 2013 (CDT)

ALttP_Link_vs_Geldman.png
High-quality A Link to the Past illustration of Link fighting a Geldman in the desert. A cool action-packed alternative to the resting image, of similarly high quality, and also unique as a well-done battle scene of a rarely spoken of enemy. It would also be cool to feature A Link to the Past artwork like this, given the upcoming sequel to the game. --Axle the Beast 03:26, May 8, 2013 (CDT)

- I really love this image. Most of my reasons are listed above: it's not a well-known enemy (and not a terribly well-known image, either, in comparison to some artwork) and it's very high quality and great to look at. It's just such a cool image overall that I'd love for it to be seen on the front page. Heroine of Time 08:31, May 8, 2013 (CDT)
- Like I said before, this is definitely a quality image, probably one of the best looking pieces of artwork from the game in my opinion. Given the fact that it's from A Link to the Past is a plus as well, with the sequel coming out by the end of the year. Justac00lguy 09:51, May 8, 2013 (CDT)
