This page is the location for any and all current Wiki projects. The following are what we'd like to work on. Of course, other areas of the Wiki are welcome for being worked on, but we'd prefer to get these pages done, or at least very fleshed out sooner than later. Thanks.
This page is the location for any and all current Wiki projects. The following are what we'd like to work on. Of course, other areas of the Wiki are welcome for being worked on, but we'd prefer to get these pages done, or at least very fleshed out sooner than later. Thanks.


==''Tears of the Kingdom''==
The main priority on the Wiki right now (Aug 2023) is ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom|Tears of the Kingdom]]'' content. Many pages are still stubs in whole or in relation to ''Tears'', and ones marked as such can be seen at:
*[[:Category:Tears of the Kingdom Stub Articles]]


==Zelda Dungeon Content Pages==
Many quests need their pages expanded, and others still need to be created. See [[Help:Tears of the Kingdom Quest Template]] for a template to use in creating pages. A list of quests can be seen by clicking show in the bar below:
We're in the process of converting content from legacy web pages to the wiki, and then presenting that as our primary content. Most pages apart from walkthroughs, some guides, and some media pages will eventually be replaced by wiki articles. We're taking this game-by-game, so every few weeks the next game will need its content updated on the wiki. Game pages whose legacy guides are still superior to their wiki articles will have a list of external links in their infobox. The goal is to improve the wiki content so that we can remove those external links.
{{Tears of the Kingdom Quests}}


'''Project Managers:''' [[User:Mases|Mases]] ([[User Talk:Mases|talk]]), [[User:Locke|Locke]] ([[User Talk:Locke|talk]])
In addition, most characters' and location pages are not yet updated for ''Tears'', and not all [[Shrine of Light|Shrines of Light]] are fully written up:
*[[:Category:Tears of the Kingdom Characters]]
*[[:Category:Tears of the Kingdom Locations]]
*[[:Category:Tears of the Kingdom Shrines]]


===The Legend of Zelda===
Any good-faith ''Tears of the Kingdom'' contributions are welcome, of course.  
*[[The Legend of Zelda Story]]
*[[:Category:The Legend of Zelda Bosses]]
*[[:Category:The Legend of Zelda Characters]]
*[[:Category:The Legend of Zelda Dungeons]]
*[[:Category:The Legend of Zelda Enemies]]
*[[:Category:The Legend of Zelda Items]]
*Check the [[The Legend of Zelda (Game)|game page]] for other guides that can be converted.


===The Adventure of Link===
==Other Projects==
*[[The Adventure of Link Story]]
If you are unable to work on ''Tears of the Kingdom'' content, or simply don't want to, other projects you could contribute to include:
*[[:Category:The Adventure of Link Bosses]]
===Listings Pages===
*[[:Category:The Adventure of Link Characters]]
{{main|Zelda Dungeon Wiki:Listings}}
*[[:Category:The Adventure of Link Dungeons]]
'''[[:Category:Listings|Listings]]''' pages on Zelda Dungeon Wiki serve two purposes:
*[[:Category:The Adventure of Link Enemies]]
#They are used to make templates to link everything on them, from the bottom of those pages and categories, using {{tl|Listbox}} and {{tl|Galbox}}
*[[:Category:The Adventure of Link Items]]
#They serve as overviews for the type of thing they list - generally all the items, characters, locations and more relating to a specific game, with an image and a short blurb describing each entry.
*Check the [[Zelda II: The Adventure of Link|game page]] for other guides that can be converted.


===A Link to the Past===
All current listings pages serve the first purpose. However, many have no descriptions, and sometimes no images, and so don't serve the second purpose particularly well. This project is to fill out Listings pages so that they serve as useful overviews.
*[[A Link to the Past Story]]
*[[:Category:A Link to the Past Bosses]]
*[[:Category:A Link to the Past Characters]]
*[[:Category:A Link to the Past Dungeons]]
*[[:Category:A Link to the Past Enemies]]
*[[:Category:A Link to the Past Items]]
*Check the [[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|game page]] for other guides that can be converted.


===Link's Awakening===
===Link's Awakening (Switch)===
*[[Link's Awakening Story]]
Not all ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening|Link's Awakening]]'' pages currently reflect the existence of the 2019 [[Nintendo Switch]] remake which, in addition to the all-new graphics, also changed various points, including number of hits to defeat enemies in some cases (owing to differences in the enemies or damage values of weapons), and changed geography such as the entrance to the [[Signpost Maze]] now requiring the [[Hookshot]] rather than [[Roc's Feather]] and [[Pegasus Boots]].
*[[:Category:Link's Awakening Bosses]]
*[[:Category:Link's Awakening Characters]]
*[[:Category:Link's Awakening Dungeons]]
*[[:Category:Link's Awakening Enemies]]
*[[:Category:Link's Awakening Items]]
*Check the [[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening|game page]] for other guides that can be converted.


===Ocarina of Time===
Pages generally need to be updated to reflect these changes (as changes, '''not''' removing the original information which is still relevant to the [[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening (Game Boy)|Game Boy]] and [[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening DX|Link's Awakening DX]] versions) and include images of the Switch version where not already present.
*[[Ocarina of Time Story]]
*[[:Category:Link's Awakening]]
*[[:Category:Ocarina of Time Bosses]]
*[[:Category:Ocarina of Time Characters]]
*[[:Category:Ocarina of Time Dungeons]]
*[[:Category:Ocarina of Time Enemies]]
*[[:Category:Ocarina of Time Items]]
*Check the [[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|game page]] for other guides that can be converted.


===Spirit Tracks===
===Twilight Princess East-West Consistency===
*[[Gallery:Spirit Tracks Enemies]]
{{main|Zelda Dungeon Wiki:Twilight Princess East-West Consistency}}
There are two versions of the map for '''''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]''''', both largely identical in all but one respect - they are flipped on the West-East axis:
*The originally intended orientation was used for the [[Nintendo GameCube]] release of ''Twilight Princess'', and later for standard mode in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD|Twilight Princess HD]]'' on the [[Nintendo Wii U|Wii U]]
*The horizontally-flipped orientation was used for the [[Nintendo Wii]] release of ''Twilight Princess'', as it was felt Link should be right-handed when using the Wiimote, as most players are right-handed. It was later also used for [[Hero Mode]] in ''Twilight Princess HD'' to provide an additional challenge.


==Resources==
''Twilight Princess'' pages on Zelda Dungeon Wiki were originally written (and in some cases, titled) according to the Wii release. After the release of ''Twilight Princess HD'', some pages were changed to match the newly-restored original orientation, but not all, leading to an ongoing inconsistency. This project aims to resolve this issue by standardising on the GameCube/TPHD orientation for major directions, including page titling - with [[Eldin Province]] (including [[Kakariko Village (Twilight Princess)|Kakariko Village]]) in the east, and [[Desert Province|Desert]] & [[Peak Province]]s to the west - and Wii/Hero Mode orientation noted in (brackets) within articles where needed. Pages may also be rewritten to be direction-agnostic, where possible.
We will also be hosting many of our resources on the wiki. It's important that these exhibit consistent format and style.

===Stub Articles and Articles With Things To Do===
 
Outside of ''Tears of the Kingdom''-specific content, there are of course many other pages which are marked with {{tl|Stub}} or {{tl|TODO}}, and which could use help to be brought up to standard. All good-faith contributions are welcome!
===Interviews===
*[[:Category:Stub Articles]]
{{Catlink|Interviews}} have their own namespace, and their titles follow the format: '''Interview:<publication> <date>''', where <publication> is the organization interviewing a developer and <date> is formatted like: '''August 12th 2012'''.
*[[:Category:Articles With Things To Do]]
 
When editing an interview, check the toolbox below the text fields for applicable templates, including the [[Template:Interview|Interview Infobox]] and the formatting templates used to standardize questions and answers.
 
Part of this project is researching interviews we don't have. If there's an interview that doesn't already have its own page, create one for it. At least add the link, if not the full text of the interview. Be sure to include the [[Template:IncInterview|IncInterview template]] if it isn't properly formatted. The next part of this project is formatting the interviews. [[:Category:Unformatted Interviews|This category]] contains interviews that haven't yet been formatted with the appropriate templates.
 
As a side-project, important quotes that might interest theorists can be collected on the [[Developer Quotes]] page. Look at other quotes on that page as examples of how to do this.
 
===Game Quotes===
{{Catlink|Text Dumps}} have been transferred to the wiki in such a way as to allow transclusion of individual quotes.  This feature has two main uses: captions and citations.
 
====Captions====
Many pages already use {{Catlink|Caption Templates}} to display what certain characters have to say about the article's subject.  This project involves updating these templates to include presets from text dumps, selected by the title of the article utilizing the template or by keywords.  Pulling the quotes from the dumps automatically both standardizes the quotes (prevents inaccuracies, etc.) and vastly simplifies their use.  This project's scope also extends to adjusting the templates' use in articles to use these presets rather than manually specifying the text to display.
 
====Citations====
Claims need to be supported by in-game evidence.  See {{Temlink|Cite}} for more information.

*[[Zelda Dungeon Wiki:Sandbox|Sandbox]] - Use that page to test out your formatting and ideas.  Don't worry if you mess up, it's cleaned up easier there.
