Talk:Master Sword

message: Perhaps it would be better to organize first by name (magical sword vs. Master Sword) and then by game? --Tydaj 00:38, 18 May 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  Organization 

message: I belive that the first time the Master Sword appeared (according to the timeline of all of the games together) was in OoT. Even though A Link to the Past was created first, wasn't it set later in the timeline than OoT? --A.J. 20:31, 18 May 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: There is little agreement on what the timeline is, and for some parts even Miyamoto says he's not sure(!) so I'd maybe leave it in game order. That way very few can complain. Master Thief Garrett 00:22, 19 May 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: If there was a confirmed timeline that it was at all possible to base things on, then maybe. But there's not, so we go by real-world time.Not even Mr. Lister's Koromon survived intact. 16:35, 17 October 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  About the first apperance  of the Master Sword... 

message: I've been going through the article, and it feels very choppy.  Does anyone object to my going through the entire article and fixing up some of the sections to make them flow a bit smoother?  None of the information will be changed, or the article organization, just the sections themselves.  If I don't get an objection by tomorrow, I'll proceed.

thread_title:  Possible clean up? 

message: I was playing ocarina of time and I noticed that during the cutscene where you remove the master sword from its pedestal, there appears to be something written on the gold spot above the guard. Here are some screenshots.  Can anyone tell if it's Kanji or if it's just gibberish? Ziiv 04:49, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: How can that be the Triforce? There's two vertical lines under the main body of the symbol.—Ｌｏｖｅはドコ？ (talk • contribs) 21:59, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: If you look on a CGI render, or official art, it is a symbol of the Triforce. The reason it looks like that is, well, the N64's graphics weren't at the level of St. Peter's Basilica.Not even Mr. Lister's Koromon survived intact. 21:58, 23 October 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Writing 

message: I've moved Hyrule to Universe of The Legend of Zelda series, and am considering merging this into that as an "artifact of the series' universe". Comments? - A Link to the Past (talk) 04:07, 11 September 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Not really. There's not much to say about it, and a merge would definitely be appropriate.Not even Mr. Lister's Koromon survived intact. 16:34, 17 October 2008 (UTC)
replies: text:  I think it might be helpful to merge it in the short term. If someone were to find adequate sources, splitting it back out would be fine at a later time. But a full article with no third-party sources just invites original research / deletion (from opposite extremes). Randomran (talk) 17:05, 18 October 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed. It's not being actively worked on it seems, and the article would be significantly smaller after a cleanup for encyclopedic content. Merging it for now would be the best bet.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 00:04, 20 October 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I think it can be safely merged, there is very little content that isn't in universe, so nothing will be lost, and can always be resurrected if more is found. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 00:19, 21 October 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Merge? 

message: In the article it states that the Master Sword can control time. Whether this was ntended literally or for OoT's story line is debatable in my mind. The sword itself cannot control time, Raru states that after Child Link drew the sword from its pedestol he sealed Link's body in the chamber of sages for (roughly) 7 years. This was done so Link was able to wield the Master Sword in and all of its power. The sword however cannot control time, it merely acts as a bridge between the past (child Link) and the future (Adult Link).  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.142.161.34 (talk) 18:06, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Master Sword controlling time? 

message: Hi  I've only just recently had a discussion with  and we agreed to include it in the reception to replace another image. Its purpose is to illustrate how the sword has become an integral part of the character's visual identity e.g. as shown in cosplay. Fieryninja (talk) 10:22, 5 August 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Oh I see. Feel free to revert. GreenishPickle!  (🔔) 10:34, 5 August 2023 (UTC)

text: If you're gonna work characters into GA, less prominent articles (few appearances) like Navi (The Legend of Zelda) and/or Fi (The Legend of Zelda) are the easiest to do. GreenishPickle!  (🔔) 04:40, 6 August 2023 (UTC)

message: Reception should form as paragraph not like this GreenishPickle!  (🔔) 00:33, 13 August 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Hi  to which guideline are you referring? The reception was organised by standard usage of a paragraph e.g. only one idea per paragraph and in a logical reading order. You have randomly created three paragraphs and moved things around so that the first paragraph for example now features several different points included in one paragraph that have no relevance to each other e.g. the Celtic influences and the IGN mentions are completely separate points. I just don't think that it reads as well being mixed up like this. Fieryninja (talk) 12:12, 13 August 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Oh I see, you can separate that in another paragraph. GreenishPickle!  (🔔) 12:16, 13 August 2023 (UTC)

text: Also, congrats on your first GA article. GreenishPickle!  (🔔) 12:18, 13 August 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Maybe it would work if I restore the order but reduce the number of paragraphs down? Fieryninja (talk) 12:19, 13 August 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Having one by one paragraph at reception turns reader off. Even Cukie disliked it when she reviewed one of my articles GreenishPickle!  (🔔) 12:26, 13 August 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: It is strange that Wikipedia doesn't use standard paragraph formatting but as I say I think we can compromise on about three, as you have already done that yourself. Large walls of text also can put readers off. Fieryninja (talk) 12:35, 13 August 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Hmm. I think it can be doable for you to put it back in order, but reduce the paragraph and I think it should be fine. GreenishPickle!  (🔔) 12:37, 13 August 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Ok, I guess it works unlike the character articles. GreenishPickle!  (🔔) 12:38, 13 August 2023 (UTC)
