Bad reputation amongst fans
Zelda.com is the official Zelda site, owned by Nintendo. It has gone through many, many different designs and incarnations. It usually uses flash, and has an enormous, spam-filled community forum [citation needed].
Zelda.com is also known for lacking evidence, confusing different items and characters, and creating fanfiction. Some examples of this are:
-Says Agahnim imprisoned sages, but he actually imprisoned the maiden descendants of sages.
-Says the Bombers have nothing better to do than cause trouble and goof around. The Bombers spent their time helping people.
-Says the Carnival of Time is to remember every second should be savored.The game only states that it's a celebration of the alignment of the sun and the moon.
-Says that in Four Swords Adventures, there is a dark tribe sealed in the Dark Mirror. The Japanese text for the game says they were just sealed by the mirror, and not necessarily in it.
-Says Death Mountain Crater is in Legend of Zelda, not Ocarina of Time.
-Refers to A Link to the Past Link as the Hero of Time.
-Says Ganon escapes the Sacred Realm on multiple occasions, and each time is re-sealed by Link and the Seven Sages. Link is only sealed by Seven Sages on one occasion.
-Says Ganondorf was the only male ever "allowed in" to the Gerudos, as opposed to one male being born every 100 years.
-Says Gleeock is a two-headed dragon, but in several games he has three.
-Says the Golden Land was forever changed into the Dark World because of Ganon. It was not forever changed, because Link turned it Golden again in A Link to the Past.
-Says WW Link's grandma gave him his tunic to help him on his journey. It was actually given to him as a tradition, and unrelated to his journey.
-Claims that Link is called the Hero of Time in: Legend of Zelda, Adventure of Link, A Link to the Past, Link's Awakening, Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask, Oracle of Seasons/Ages, Four Swords, and Minish Cap. Only Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask give him this title.
-Makes up a legend about Impa chasing Gerudo thieves out of Kakariko.
-Claims that Sheik imprisoned an evil spirit in the Well, instead of Impa.
-Says Koholint is off the coast of Eastern Hyrule. Japanese text refers to Koholint as a "southern" island.
-Says the creator of the Link Doll in Adventure of Link was friends with the Hero of Time.
-States the Magic mirror teleports Link to the opposite world that he is in. However it only takes him out of the darkworld.
-Claims the "magic shield" and "magic sword" from AoL is the Mirror shield and Master sword. However there is not proof in the games of this claim.
-Claims Medli was a Rito Princess. In reality she was just an apprentice to be Valoo. Komali is the Prince of the rito
-Claims that "Megaton" is a brand name of hammers in Hyrule. However it is the name of a LEGENDARY hammer used by a Goron hero.
-Claims the portals to the dark world in Alttp was caused by the magic mirror. The portals already exist.
-States Rauru guarded the Pedestal of time.
-States Link Awakening happens after Majora's Mask. It has been confirmed to be a direct sequel to Alttp. "Pendants of Virtue
The Pendant of Courage, the Pendant of Power and the Pendant of Wisdom are collectively known as the Pendants of Virtue. When Link returned from his adventure in Termina, hundreds of years had passed in Hyrule and the Master Sword was hidden within the Lost Woods. To re-prove himself and demonstrate that he was worthy of the Master Sword, Link had to collect all three Pendants of Virtue."
-Claims Ganon just stayed sealed in the dark world at the end of Alttp. However, he died. This is supported by LA's manual.
-Claims Rauru built the temple of time. However, Oot says the ancient sages built it.
-Says Romani "once lived in Termina" as if she ever left.
-Calls Saria an "elfin child of the Kokiri Forest"
-They make up Fan-fiction to explain the creation of Termina, which is never explored in-game. "When Hyrule was created by the three goddesses at the beginning of time, there were certain side effects of its creation which Din, Nayru and Farore did not anticipate. As the three holy women breathed life into the world and chased away Emptiness, their potent breath slipped through tiny cracks in the folds of space and created millions of alternate worlds in the process. One of these worlds became the land known as Termina."
-Says the tingle tower in TWW was to humor weary travelers.
-Claims Zola are violent female Zora. OoX says they are the same race, just live in different environments.
-Claims Zoras were made because the Goddesses blessed Zora's Domain. Never mentioned in any game.
Hopefully this has shown that Zelda.com is unreliable. Nothing on that site can be used as evidence or proof. As they make mistakes or create fanfiction at every turn.
