== Material and Weapon image moves ==
== I'm back! ==
It's been a while, the last time I really did much was nearly a year ago. I went through some tough times and I found it harder and harder to do much of anything at all. Eventually I found some strength and got involved with a few other projects. They didn't end well, but at the very least I walked away with a few more skills. And if you happen to know me from one of those places I implore you to leave the past right where it belongs.


Could you please process the following image rename-without-redirects?
Either way I am feeling much better now and I hope maybe I can be of some help around here again in some way. I recently came into the possession of Corel PaintShop Photo Pro X6 so maybe I could do some image stuff. Haven't used a good image editor in a while so it'd be good practice. I look forward to at least trying to get into some kind of swing :)
*File:HW Link's Scarf.png to [[:File:HW Link's Scarf Icon.png]] (since it's transparencied, whereas the others are not)

If any of these won't work because of jpg to png conversion error, let me know and I can try to fix the files using GIMP. There might also be some problems with the ? in the name of the 8-Bit weapons, which probably means the file name will just have to drop that.[[User:KrytenKoro|KrytenKoro]] ([[User talk:KrytenKoro|talk]]) 17:29, 24 November 2014 (UTC)

::Yeah, sure. I'm on my 3DS right now, but I'll be getting on a computer pretty soon so I'll take care of those files then, unless one of the other admins wants to do it before I can. {{:User:WilliamLC/sig}} 20:44, 24 November 2014 (UTC)
 
:::Also, since you seem to be the one taking up the move work, should I go ahead and standardize the names on the costume page, or would that create undue work for you?[[User:KrytenKoro|KrytenKoro]] ([[User talk:KrytenKoro|talk]]) 21:43, 24 November 2014 (UTC)
 
::::Yeah, go ahead with the standardization, just let me know the new naming scheme. I was unable to get to a computer this afternoon (I'm on my 3DS still), but I'll definitely be able to tomorrow morning. {{:User:WilliamLC/sig}} 00:47, 25 November 2014 (UTC)
 
:::::I've just been going with "HW namefromgame.png" for everything else. I'll list the name changes, but note that it looks like some users have been renaming the images without dealing with the redirects, so there might be some cleanup in the "whatlinkshere". (example]])[[User:KrytenKoro|KrytenKoro]] ([[User talk:KrytenKoro|talk]]) 01:09, 25 November 2014 (UTC)
::Okay, I've renamed the ones we have official names for (that I can verify); I left unchanged the TP and SS skins, which I don't have, and the TP DLC pack skins, which aren't out yet. [http://zeldawiki.org/index.php?title=Costumes_in_Hyrule_Warriors&diff=424341&oldid=424337 Here].[[User:KrytenKoro|KrytenKoro]] ([[User talk:KrytenKoro|talk]]) 01:19, 25 November 2014 (UTC)
 
::::::I'm not going to have nearly as much time here as I thought I would, and its looking like at best I wont be able to do anything major for another day or two. I'm moving into a new apartment so I'm going to be a little busy for the rest of today and likely a little bit tomorrow, so, those edits you made to the various HW pages, are you just renaming the images on them, just not moving the images? I just need to know what to go off of the next time I get on here. {{:User:WilliamLC/sig}} 19:30, 25 November 2014 (UTC)
::The three pages in question have the correct image ''names'' (meaning the pages are mostly full of currently broken links), but those images still need to be moved -- once the images have been moved, they should show up on the page without any further edits necessary. Also, just to make sure things are clear, the Link's Scarf image in the lead infobox should be a different image than the one in the tables.
::As far as the costumes go, those have been used on pages outside of the costume page, so those will require edits -- however, I didn't want to get the staff coming down on me for temporarily leaving broken image links all over the wiki, so I haven't changed those yet. If you can let me know when you (or another admin, if you want to trade this off) are planning to start moving the images, I can go through and do all the remaining link corrections.[[User:KrytenKoro|KrytenKoro]] ([[User talk:KrytenKoro|talk]]) 20:29, 25 November 2014 (UTC)
 
:::I'd hold off in that case. I have a tool called [[mw:Extension:ReplaceText|ReplaceText]] that we admins use, so don't even worry about any of that stuff. Whatever you can't rename I can go through with ReplaceText and fix pretty easily. 05:31, 26 November 2014 (UTC)
:::Alright, I'm officially in my apartment now. I'm going to get started with some of the moving now. 16:25, 26 November 2014 (UTC)
:::Alright, so the Weapons page is fixed and the Materials page is partially fixed, so I'm gonna go take a break for a bit, let me know what else needs fixing. {{:User:WilliamLC/sig}} 17:16, 26 November 2014 (UTC)
 
::::I don't quite understand what you were doing [http://zeldawiki.org/index.php?title=Material&curid=68436&diff=424546&oldid=424407 here]. Was the "-fo's" thing intentional? Also, I thought the plan was to remove the non-standard "Icon" from the image names. Also, Zant's Scimatars images (and weapon name) are now named with "Scimitar" instead.
::::Basically, as I had understood the plan, the pages themselves would not need editing, as the links would be "correct" for after the image move.
::::I mean, I can change them all to end with "Icon", but then we'd have to move the ones that currently don't have that. So which naming scheme do you prefer, I guess?[[User:KrytenKoro|KrytenKoro]] ([[User talk:KrytenKoro|talk]]) 22:18, 26 November 2014 (UTC)
 
:::::Either is fine. So many of the images already have it so I really don't want to have go through and remove it on so many images. Any new images uploaded/added should be named with the Icon thing. {{:User:WilliamLC/sig}} 00:26, 27 November 2014 (UTC)
 
::::::So I should rename all of them to use "Icon", then? It looks like with weapons, at least, there are more without Icon than with. I can perform the moves myself if that would help, leaving only deletion of the redirects for you.[[User:KrytenKoro|KrytenKoro]] ([[User talk:KrytenKoro|talk]]) 13:27, 28 November 2014 (UTC)
 
:::::::No, don't rename anything. Just leave it like it is. As I said, existing images are fine, new images must be renamed. {{:User:WilliamLC/sig}} 18:27, 28 November 2014 (UTC)
 
== I'm glad you like it ~ ==
I see your using the Gorons Tunic Render i did for HW, it makes me happy knowing you like it enough to use it as such. I hope that the renders I have provided are, at the very least, up to the wiki's standards.<br>[[User:Ixbran|Ixbran]] ([[User talk:Ixbran|talk]]) 03:16, 11 December 2014 (UTC)
 
:Sorry to butt in but are you kidding me it's amazing *-*!!!! I saw someone linked to it outside the wiki and I was wondering who had done it...excellent job!! --[[User:Dany36|Dany36]] ([[User talk:Dany36|talk]]) 03:21, 11 December 2014 (UTC)
 
::thank you very much, I'm glad you approve.<br>[[User:Ixbran|Ixbran]] ([[User talk:Ixbran|talk]]) 03:27, 11 December 2014 (UTC)
 
:Oh yes it is quite nice, I just gotta say, wow. The amount of patience it must've taken to not only screenshot it at just the right frame, then do what I imagine would be hours upon hours of slaving in a photo editor, just wow. You did a great job, please keep it up! :) {{:User:WilliamLC/sig}} 06:36, 11 December 2014 (UTC)
 
::Thank you, I really appreciate knowing you approve of my work. I have to say really, the ones that took me the most time, are the ones I took screen shots during attack animations. Sheiks Dark Recolor, both of Agithas recolors, Darunias Darmani recolor. Other recolors involve them performing idle animations, or focus spirit activation animations. I was in the process of showing these too a friend as I worked on them, and she commented how all the work I put into these being a ''labor of love'', and she is right. I am a huge fan of both DW and LoZ, and I wanted the wikis to have the recolor costumes, but I also wanted them to be interesting to look at. So I felt the hard work was all worth it if people enjoyed them.<br><br>and knowing you do appreciate the work I put into it does indeed make it worth it.<br>[[User:Ixbran|Ixbran]] ([[User talk:Ixbran|talk]]) 07:32, 11 December 2014 (UTC)
 
===''MM Pack'' Masks===
If its alright with you, I'm just going to take screen shots of their victory animations of them in their masks. It seems like it'd be needlessly difficult to render their mask costumes, when its just their default costume with an accessory. I hope thats alright.<br>[[User:Ixbran|Ixbran]] ([[User talk:Ixbran|talk]]) 06:37, 30 January 2015 (UTC)
 
==[http://www.gamespot.com/articles/legend-of-zelda-live-action-series-coming-to-netfl/1100-6425161/ Live Action Legend of Zelda Netflix exclusive series announced]==
I figured this is something you needed to know, this is the Zelda Wiki after all.<br>[[User:Ixbran|Ixbran]] ([[User talk:Ixbran|talk]]) 01:42, 7 February 2015 (UTC)
 
== sorry to be a bother ==
 
but [[Talk:Young_Link#Small_Edit|could you help me with something]]? In Hyrule Warriors, Young Links in game description clearly states he is the same Link who starred in OoT/MM, so it makes sense from a reference point of view, all his abilities would borrow from OoT and MM. One of his abilities allows him to put on boots with wings, to let him move around quickly for an attack. I believe they are meant to be the Hover Boots, an item The Hero of Time actually had access too, while others are insisting they are the Pegasus Boots, which simply wouldn't make sense, since the Hero of Time never had them. the game clearly states the young Link in HW is the hero of time, so its obviously the hover Boots hes using, but others insist its the Pegasus Boots, and I need your help as an admin to end this.<br>[[User:Ixbran|Ixbran]] ([[User talk:Ixbran|talk]]) 15:07, 8 February 2015 (UTC)
 
:I'm just going to quickly respond here, since Will is busy and doesn't have as much time for the wiki. I've noticed in the section that it is mostly a debate between you and Pakkun. Since you're asking for the help of an admin, I'm assuming that you think Pakkun is a patroller, when he is in fact not. Pakkun is an admin and the wiki team leader. We've actually recently gotten rid of the Patroller rank altogether. Sorry for any misunderstandings there. {{:User:The Goron Moron/sig}} 18:18, 8 February 2015 (UTC)
