===Game Quotes===
==Other Projects==
{{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.
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:
===Listings Pages===
{{main|Zelda Dungeon Wiki:Listings}}
'''[[:Category:Listings|Listings]]''' pages on Zelda Dungeon Wiki serve two purposes:
#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}}
#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.


====Captions====
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.
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====
===Link's Awakening (Switch)===
Claims need to be supported by in-game evidence.  See [[Help:References]] and {{Temlink|Ref}} for more information.
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]].


==Main Page Trivia==
Pages 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]]'') and include images of the new versions where not already present.
All Trivia sections must be updated to meet the requirements described [[Help:Format#Trivia|here]]. This project also covers including new trivia, though there's no measure for completion of that aspect.

===Twilight Princess East-West Consistency===
{{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.
 
''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.

*[[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.
