thread_title: Official Title confirmed!

message: .. "Cross between a Mandhandla and a Deku Baba"??
Manhandla's heads are all the same as Deku Baba heads, so it's surely just Manhandla (whose real name escapes me at present, Manhandla being the English name) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.49.220.19 (talk • contribs) 
:Well the problem is it's got elements of both.
:# Manhandla in the sense of being multiple heads together BUT no visible "legs" section!
:# Deku Baba noise, "necks", and face appearance BUT don't seem to move individually!
:If you look at this screencap you can see they're not attached to the ground OR to each other, and yet this and other footage shows them working seemingly in unison. Of course it could just be their homing-in skills made them *seem* to be joined due to the way Link moved, and that in reality they'd move on their own. Weird. On second thought, I think they look like individual uprooted Deku Babas and it's just their movement making them seem conjoined... there's certainly no visible bond.

thread_title: The new boss: Manhandla, Deku Baba, or a mix of the two?

message: Well, I gotta say, I don't see how this is appropriate for the article. Do you have a source showing that people expected TP to be cartoony? Or that the SW2K video influenced TP? -- A Link to the Past 02:40, July 18, 2005 (UTC)
I added the part about the Spaceworld demo, but I understand why it would be considered irrelevant. Perhaps the Spaceworld demo could be less emphasized once more information comes in about the production of the game. Either that, or give the Spaceworld demo its own article. What do you think? I originally put it in there because the demo, in a certain way, hinted the Twilight Princess.

:The demo was never actually going to be a game. It was created to show the power of the GameCube. -- A Link to the Past 05:41, July 18, 2005 (UTC)
::At least in my experience, people who lived through the Spaceworld demo and "Cel-da" outcry will tend to examine the graphical aspect of Twilight Princess and ask, was it done in response to the initial backlash against cartoonish graphics? (Probably not) Was it based on the Spaceworld demo? (Probably not) How is it related to Wind Waker? (Adaptation of same cel-shading engine.) I think if we can answer that sort of question we get a lot of common fan misconceptions out of the way, although I'm not sure how this section could be adapted to do that correctly; as Past says, it has some questionable implications currently.

replies: text: I'd say this sort of debate could go on the Series page. SpaceWorld isn't really that related to this game. It could maybe have a little mention here with a link, but I think we might as well keep unrelated stuff here to a minimum ready for the impending influx of real info.

thread_title: Hmm

message: When the game comes out what rating would the game game be..? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.200.24.241 (talk • contribs) 
:Um, no one knows. That's why it's RP. Additionally, the game is not even finished yet, the ESRB can't rate a game until it's complete. Knowing Nintendo( and Zelda) we can speculate that it will be rated E(, though a T might be possible if the violence and drama are strong enough), but it's impossible to be certain at this stage.. -- WikidSmaht (talk) 18:09, 22 September 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: It would be E10 or T. And he wasn't asking what it was, he was asking what it might be. - A Link to the Past (talk) 19:29, 22 September 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: wiktionary:would wiktionary:might The rating might be anything, from eC to AO. But since s/he asked what it would be (not could or might), and that doesn't make sense without a clarificacation of the condition( "When the game comes out" is not the condition, based on tense, though "If the game came out" could have been), I answered the question's probable intended meaning, "what rating will the game have?", since would/will is a common mistake among those who speak English poorly. I see no reason to be so hostile( or if not hostile, contrary) towards opinions/stances/facts I present on talk pages. If you have a problem with me, sort it out in user talk. -- WikidSmaht (talk) 16:09, 23 September 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: Rating

message: 68.97.100.103, who has a history of vandalizing Princess Zelda with unsupported information about Sheik, keeps changing this article to say, among other things, that Link is only visiting Toaru Village. I'm changing it back because I haven't seen any word from Nintendo or gaming news sources confirming or even suggesting this. If anyone sees this reported by a reliable source, links would be appreciated. -- WikidSmaht (talk) 06:48, 8 December 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  Link's status in Toaru 

message: I've twice changed a redirect from Legend of Zelda series to Legend of Zelda series, which is the correct article title. Is there some reason the protectors of this page keep changing it back? It states in Policies and Guidelines that redirects should be avoided whenever possible. ~ Hibana 20:27, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: That's correct. I've change the article to avoid the redirect. --Pagrashtak 02:16, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: Revert wars

message: I'm changing the comment about the flash that appears in trailer 2, which reveals ghosts. In trailer 3, the same flash appears while Link is in his wolf form. The creators have in several interviews stated how animals (in this case the wolf) can see elements humans can't. Also, no one is holding a lens of truth in the third trailer.
:But he's in wolf form for the whole clip, so this doesn't adequately explain why the spectres appear suddenly. -- WikidSmaht (talk) 17:31, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, there is the dilemma (which is why I added the "likely"). I would assume that the would vision is activated as an ability, assigned for the y, x or z button, and not constantly active. I know this is a lot of guesswork, but as I said, I did add "likely" and it is quite obvious that no one is holden a lens of truth at least in the third trailer.
