Hey Ciela! The Zelda Wiki staff really appreciates your willingness to improve our etymology sections. However, we would like to kind of steer you in the right direction. We would prefer you use more reputable and known sources, such as https://www.behindthename.com/ when citing information about character names. As long as a page on there isn't a poorly done user created page, you should be able to find some good information on there. We would really prefer you used primary sources ( such as this page https://www.behindthename.com/name/john ). If you have any further questions, feel free to message Tony, our wiki director. You can post on his user page ( https://zelda.gamepedia.com/User:TriforceTony ) or email him at tony@zeldauniverse.net. And don't be afraid to send an application to join our staff, we need all the help we can get =)

Hey, could you make sure when you're editing etymology you put the {{Names part of the table down with the table? I often see your edits with it stuck to the end of your sentences. Should look more like this:
===Etymology===
'''Zora means "aurora" and "dawn".'''<br>
<small>(empty space here)</small><br>
'''{{Names'''<br>
'''|align= left'''<br>
'''|enBr=''' <br>
'''|enBrM='''
