Community:Zelda Historians
Zelda Historians is a group of theorists founded in 2010 who operate out of the website ZeldaInformer. The group was established by LOZ Historian, a veteran member of the Zelda theorizing community, and co-founded by Erimgard, a renown theorist and Bomber at Zelda Informer. Zelda Historians serves as the replacement for the now extinct Zelda Katsu project, with a similar aim of gathering canonical resources from the Zelda Universe. The project underwent an extensive year-planning period on the staff boards of ZeldaInformer and was finally launched on the 4th of January 2010.
The project is co-ordinated at a public forum on the ZeldaInformer community boards. Its goal is to provide theorists with a range of canon resources for the formulation of accurate and evidenced theories, as it was due to the commonness of badly researched theories that the group was spawned. It is a mission to help theorists, both old and new, to accuracy.
Currently, Zelda Historians has released a collection of thousands of screenshots taken from all of the games in the series, English and Japanese Text Dumps, Japanese translations, manual scans, a list of Zelda developers, a developers quote guide, a symbols guide and a library of cutscenes. There are plans for many more projects; however due to the founder's reputation certain staff members thought he was not the right person to moderate Zelda Historians - or any other future related Zelda Theorizing matters - and thus resulted in his departure from the internet soon after the project's launch. With his second major defeat in the Zelda Theorizing community, LOZ Historian has not been seen since; vowing in his departure thread never to return under his renown user name again.
Some months after the founder's humiliation, the co-founder took leave from the internet because of personal matters. Due to these events there has been a decline in enthusiasm in furthering what was once considered a potential project. The future of Zelda Historians currently appears bleak in wake of uninterested fans entering Zelda Theorizing. [1] [2]
