Regarding this [http://strategywiki.net/w/index.php?title=Zelda:_Ocarina_of_Time/Hyrule_Castle&curid=1885&diff=5734&oldid=5678&rcid=4537 revision] in [[Zelda: Ocarina of Time/Hyrule Castle#Gaining_Entrance]], I tend to disagree with moving the more basic references to Gold Skulltula into the sidequests section. To a certain extent, the Gold Skulltulas are just as important to progressing through the game as heart pieces. But more importantly, I don't see the rationale for its removal. I don't think that the walkthrough was too cluttered before, and it can be helpful for a user to gain an understanding of good ''order of events'' to completing a game.

One of my favorite walkthroughs is ''The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker Official Strategy Guide for GameCube'' by Brady Games [http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0744001862/104-7433875-5847157?v=glance&n=283155] which contains three sections which lends themselves well to The Wind Waker's style of gameplay. It contains a general purpose walkthrough, a list of sidequests and special items, and an Island Tours section which breaks the game down into all of its distinct locations (islands) and summarizes all of the special actions/items that occur there. I have not seen any strategy guides here which are currently organized in this fashion, but I find this very helpful when trying to gain full completion of a game, and I believe it lends credence to presenting information in as many ways as possible rather than eliminating repetition in a strategy guide. --[[User:Inarius|inarius]] 11:18, 9 March 2006 (PST)
