== More than one Link ==
== More than one Link ==
Should we mention that there are more than one Link? Thought this doesn't seem very Marioish, but we may have to say that because the Link in Super Mario RPG and Donkey Kong Country is not the same Link in the Smash Bros. Series. Plus, the Link in Smash Bros. Melee seems to not be the same one that will appear in Brawl. http://img257.imageshack.us/img257/9276/papertoycf7.gif '''[[User:Paper Jorge|Paper Jorge!

:I don't play Zelda, and I know what you are talking about. I still refuse to believe there are several Link's. Anyway, no, it is not Mario-related, so, don't put that down. It is ridiculous anyway to believe there are hundreds of Link's. {{User:Pokemon DP/sig}}

::But all of the games confirm that there is more than one. Even interviews with game creators say this. http://img257.imageshack.us/img257/9276/papertoycf7.gif '''[[User:Paper Jorge|Paper Jorge!

:::Yeah, just leave it out. Also, no point arguing over something that isn't Mario-related. Wether there is many Link's or not isn't of this Wiki's concern :P {{User:Pokemon DP/sig}} Still interesting, though.

::::Very well then. But I wasn't arguing if there was one or more Link (we arleady got proof from the game directors and stuff as well as the games directly say so) I was wondering if we should put the info in. Since there IS a chance they're not the same Link. http://img257.imageshack.us/img257/9276/papertoycf7.gif '''[[User:Paper Jorge|Paper Jorge!

:::::Meh, doesn't really matter anyway. It ain't Mario-related, so, who cares on this Wiki :P I still think it was interesting though. {{User:Pokemon DP/sig}} I will definetely play as Link in Brawl. :P

:::::All Legend of Zelda games feature different Links (save Majora and Ocarina, in which both Links were the same). But basically, there are many incarnations of Links throughout the series. And the Brawl link is a different Link from the one in Melee (though the one in Melee is still the same as the Link in the orifinal). Confusing end to an argument, huh?{{User:Knife/sig}} 00:32, 15 August 2007 (EDT)

Yes. And while it is highly possible that all the Ganondorfs are the same, it's more likely that they are all different as well. {{User:Master Lucario/sig}}

==Familiar Melody?==
==Familiar Melody?==
''a strange but familiar melody can be heard whenever anyone tries to talk to the slumbering Link''. What melody would that be? The sentence seems to try and make it a mystery to anyone who doesn't have prior knowledge about it, which is entirely not what an encyclopaedic article should do.--[[User:Vellidragon|vellidragon]] 17:29, 21 September 2011 (EDT)

== Why ==
is Link a [[zeldawiki:Hylian|hylian]]? He looks like a human! Talk this out on [[zeldawiki:Main Page|Zelda Wiki]]. [[User:Unshy Guy|Unshy Guy]] ([[User talk:Unshy Guy|talk]]) 20:43, 6 November 2013 (EST)
:From Link Wiki: ''"The Hylians are a race of humans[...]"'' BAM! I'm done. <br>{{User:LeftyGreenMario/sig}} 21:09, 6 November 2013 (EST)
== Shouldn't we use his Mario Kart 8 render? ==
If his main appearance in the Mario Universe is that seen in Mario Kart 8, that should be his image used, shouldn't it?

--[[User:WAluigipants|WAluigipants]] ([[User talk:WAluigipants|talk]]) 00:43, 30 June 2017 (EDT)
:The wiki prefers using images that solely contain the character. In this case, Link is inside a bike, so it's not the preferred image for the info box. {{User:Time Turner/sig}} 00:52, 30 June 2017 (EDT)
== Mario Kart 8 Deluxe or Super Mario Odyssey? ==
Super Mario Odyssey would be Link's 2018 appearance in the Mario franchise... But since he got another appearance in MK8DX... I'm confused.--[[User:WAluigipants|WAluigipants]] ([[User talk:WAluigipants|talk]]) 21:05, 25 July 2018 (EDT)
:Um, Link is ''not'' in ''Super Mario Odyssey'' o.o [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 21:17, 25 July 2018 (EDT)
== BOTW Link image for the info box ==
As of recent, Link has been appearing in his Breath of the Wild attire rather than his traditional green tunic. The render used currently for Link's page uses his SSB4 render, and a new render for Link as he appears in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate exists online. Is it a good idea if I change the render used for the info box? --[[User:WAluigipants|WAluigipants]] ([[User talk:WAluigipants|talk]]) 00:16, 13 October 2018 (EDT)
:We don't change to new artwork until the game releases. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 08:02, 13 October 2018 (EDT)
== SMM2 form ==
Shouldn't the ''Super Mario Maker 2'' form be split out from this article in order to retain consistency with articles like [[Peachette]]? {{User:Toadette the Achiever/sig}} 16:06, December 2, 2019 (EST)
:I don't think these are really comparable, Peachette is clearly a unique transformation as a result of combining Peach and Toadette. Link is just... Link. Splitting Link for consistency with Peachette would be more like splitting out Link in Mario Maker 2 and then splitting the Peachette form and her appearance in Mario Kart Tour. I don't see a reason to split for now. --{{User:Waluigi Time/sig}} 16:16, December 2, 2019 (EST)
::I'm not sure about Peachette, but others come to mind like Metal Mario that have separate articles over the form and character (as loose as that is). [[User:LinkTheLefty|LinkTheLefty]] ([[User talk:LinkTheLefty|talk]]) 16:27, December 2, 2019 (EST)
:::Okay, yeah, that's a better precedent. {{User:Toadette the Achiever/sig}} 16:58, December 2, 2019 (EST)
::::Eh, I still don't think it's necessary. Metal Mario is a form turned into a unique entity, while Link is a unique entity turned into a form. --{{User:Waluigi Time/sig}} 20:35, December 2, 2019 (EST)
:::::To be honest, I don't think Metal Mario and the like necessitated splitting either, but that's beside the point. Personally, I see it as more a possible evolution of Costume Mario. [[User:LinkTheLefty|LinkTheLefty]] ([[User talk:LinkTheLefty|talk]]) 22:11, December 2, 2019 (EST)
Well someone already made the article for the Master Sword with most of the information covered there. [[User:Mario Sakuraba|Mario Sakuraba]] ([[User talk:Mario Sakuraba|talk]]) 22:17, December 2, 2019 (EST)
