Talk:Kakariko Village Theme

Um
I really hate to do this, but I honestly think that this article really needs to be deleted. It's talking about a single song in the Zelda universe, one which isn't a game-altering song such as one played with the Ocarina of Time. If we allow this, what's to stop songs from being made about the Goron City music or the Forest Temple music or something? I honestly can't see any good coming out of this. Thoughts? --Ando (T) 01:51, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

This one I added only because Nintendo thought it was good enough to put it in the official guide. This implies it is one of their favorites. Making it one of the more notable non-player songs in the series. More so than Farewell to Gibdos or Melody of Darkness, both of which only appear once in the entire series. While not as used as Zelda's Lullaby or the Overworld theme, it does appear in three games that some people consider to be the best in the entire series. Therefore the Kakariko Village Theme is more than notable to be keep.

And I can't believe I have to remind you of this but here goes. As the Main page says "Zelda Wiki.org (also abbreviated ZW.org) was created originally to be the internet's largest encyclopedia of information about The Legend of Zelda series... Now, it is a collaborative effort to maintain the greatest collection of Zelda knowledge on the internet." So a whole list of non-player songs is not a bad thing. If nessisary, just make a new category for non-player songs.

 * I fail to see how that makes it any more notable than the overworld theme. And I don't need to be reminded of the mission statement; I know well what it says. But there's a difference between Zelda information and something that just really isn't noteworthy at all. You wouldn't expect to see an article on the clump of trees in front of Link's house in TWW, would you? No, because it's not noteworthy.
 * Yes, I realize I'm comparing a used-in-several-games song to a clump of trees, but more noteworthy does NOT mean noteworthy enough. If anything, the song should get a small mention on the Kakariko Village article, but nothing more. Again, this is what I personally think, but I'll wait to see what others say. --Ando (T) 02:15, 30 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Perhaps I wasn't clear. I meant that the Kakariko theme is not as notable as the Overworld theme. There are dozens upon dozens of articles on Zelda Wiki that are far less notable than this one, but there seems to be no problem with them. Also, I'm going to try to put this a delicately as possible. It seems to me that sysops in general tend to deal out the I-don't-like-this-let's-delete-it lines way too much. Sorry, but it had to be said.--Matt 02:23, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

Most of the not-as-notable articles you speak of merely just haven't been found by anyone who would look at it and say "Why is that here again?" (much like the recently-discovered Lava and I just found Overworld and I really don't think that needs to be there). And really, regarding the "sysops want things deleted too much" thing, it's not just us that need this thought pattern. We need other people seeing unnecessary articles and flagging THEM for deletion as well. That's what the tag is for, so if you see anything that needs it, throw it on. ;) ANYWAY, this is the last I'll say on the subject till others throw their opinions in, since I'm tired and am having trouble forming sentences (if I've come off as angry, that's why; it was unintentional). --Ando (T) 02:42, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
