Talk:Deku

from Zeldapedia, the Legend of Zelda wiki

Just to justify, I changed "always overpriced" to "often overpriced" because I don't think 10 rupees is too much to ask for a Piece of Heart, nor is whatever it is they charge for making you hold more Deku Nuts/Sticks. JalYt-Xil-Vimescarrot 13:35, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

Hiya, is it REALLY necessary to link to Deku Scrub and Mad Scrub if they just go to the Deku page? -Anonymous

shouldnt we change this to decu scrub and make a page envolvinv all things with deku in it? Oni Dark Link

Triforce 14 — The Game TALK — CONTRIBUTIONS — EDIT COUNT — OTHER ADMINS Nope, I have it on my to-do-list to create pages replacing the redirects for both the Deku Scrubs and Mad Scrubs. As Business Scrub already has its own page, it seems appropriate to me to create separate pages for those as well. Trying to fit all 3 types of deku on one page would create a very difficult and confusing page. I suppose the links to the pages could be removed until the new pages are created, however

Triforce 14 — The pen is mightier than the sword, if it has been sharpened to a fine point, dipped in deadly poison and is thrown from ten feet away. But really, you're better off with a sword. TALK — CONTRIBUTIONS — EDIT COUNT — OTHER ADMINS OK, now that this links to the 3 pages, anyone think this should encompass ALL kinds of Deku including the Deku Babas, etc?

Moblin slayer – Come the morning light, its a see through show, what you may have heard and what you think you know... TALK – Yeah... No, as this refers to the "species" (aka the little guys who shoot stuff out of their mouth at you,) not everything with the word "Deku" in front of it.

Triforce 14 — In Soviet Russia, car drive you! TALK — CONTRIBUTIONS — EDIT COUNT — OTHER ADMINS I thought this page was about the entire Deku race, because those guys are covered in their separate articles. Make this a Disambig then maybe?

Moblin slayer – Marching forward hypocritic and hypnotic computers, you depend on our protection, yet you feed us lies from the tablecloth! TALK – Yeah... The way I look at it it covers all variety of Scrubs (Deku Scrub, Mad Scrub, and Business Scrub.) Am I making any sense whatsoever?

Triforce 14 — All your base are belong to us. TALK — CONTRIBUTIONS — EDIT COUNT — OTHER ADMINS Yes, but each of those has their own page as of 1/2 an hour ago. Either we need to expand this to everything or merge info from this to the appropriate articles and make this a disambig. I think we can agree that it is currently a mess O.o

Moblin slayer – I'm not the one who's so far away when the snake bite enters my veins... TALK – Yeah... Yeah, this is definitely a mess. What I saw this as, however, was a page for the Deku Scrubs as a whole and talking about the Deku Scrubs as a whole (physiology, government, etc.) But I do agree for taking the other Deku pages, expanding them to include information from this page that isn't on them yet, and then turning this into a disambig page.

Triforce 14 — His name is Robert Paulson. TALK — CONTRIBUTIONS — EDIT COUNT — OTHER ADMINS Alright I'll work on that tomorrow if someone doesn't beat me to it.

thats what i suggested way back when Oni Dark Link

Triforce 14 — In Soviet Russia, car drive you! TALK — CONTRIBUTIONS — EDIT COUNT — OTHER ADMINS Better eh? Since most of that stuff only pertained to the Deku Scrubs, it got moved there.

AuronKaizer - "No junk food, just earthly goods! I ate weird berries in the woods. Now I'm seeing colors, I'm getting higher; I think I'll start a FOREST FIRE!" TALK - THE LIST - PIT OF RECKONING - SANDBOX - WIDGETS - ToC - SUGGESTIONS Meh, you only managed to turn a turd into a nugget o' gold, nothing big. You ain't got nothin' on Buddy Jee, so just quit while yer ahead.

Triforce 14 — Jesus can walk on water, but Chuck Norris can swim through land. TALK — CONTRIBUTIONS — EDIT COUNT — OTHER ADMINS I can't tell if that's good or bad O.O

Just for clarification, is it pronounced "dee-koo" or "deh-koo"?

EveryDayJoe45 – "I figured that if I said it enough, I would convince the world that I really was the greatest."--Muhammad Ali TALK I've always believed it was "dee-koo". But don't quote me on that.

I imagine it would be pronounced like "day coup". -Mule (talk) 05:15, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

AuronKaizer - "Dog carcass in alley this morning, tire tread on burst stomach. This city is afraid of me. I have seen its true face. The streets are extended gutters and the gutters are full of blood and when the drains finally scab over, all the vermin will drown. The accumulated filth of all their sex and murder will foam up about their waists and all the whores and politicians will look up and shout "Save us!"... and I'll look down and whisper "No." Now the whole world stands on the brink, staring into bloody Hell; all those liberals and intellectuals and smooth-talkers... and all of a sudden nobody can think of anything to say." TALK - THE LIST - PIT OF RECKONING - SANDBOX - WIDGETS - ToC - SUGGESTIONS 10:43, 14 June 2009 (UTC) Not that I get many opportunities to pronounce the word Deku in real life, but I've always pronounced it as "deh koo."

very strange conversation but its always been deck-koo to me Oni Dark Link 10:56, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

Metroidhunter32 – I have created a tournament of heroes. TALK – Vote upon it. It has alway been, and will always be, Dee-koo for me.

so does everyone else pernounce hyrule high-rule? Oni Dark Link 16:19, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

Metroidhunter32 – I have created a tournament of heroes. TALK – Vote upon it. yep.

I've heard it pronounced deh-koo, day-koo, dee-koo, and di-koo. Im just confused now... we should hold a vote.

Triforce 14 — A penny saved is ridiculous. TALK — CONTRIBUTIONS — EDIT COUNT — OTHER ADMINS A vote isn't necessary... Based off general rules of the English language, it would be pronounced "Deh-koo."

its a japaneese translation so there is no rules. each to their own were not going to vote and inforce people to say things a certian way. were not a facist wiki. were not very much of a democracy either coming to think about it. were kind of an admins rule party. does anyone else pernounce it gore-on? Oni Dark Link 20:48, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

Moblin slayer – I'm not the one who's so far away when the snake bite enters my veins... TALK – Yeah... I must be weird, as I pronounce Deku "day-koo" and goron "gore-on..." though I don't know how else once could pronounce Goron...

go-ron although that just sounds weird. Oni Dark Link 20:53, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Deku Tree

Metroidhunter32 – I have created a tournament of heroes. TALK – Vote upon it. Should any mention be made of the deku trees here seeing as they are living plants and are called deku even if they don't match some of the other deku traits.

i think we should label this page deku scrub and have another page covering all theings deku (deku nut stick bab etc) Oni Dark Link 22:35, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

agreed. Deku Scrubs would be better.....or maybe Deku (race) and Deku (whatever we deside) with a Deku disambig?--C2 22:39, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

Deku Hero – "I have decided to wait for him. I've made my promise... I'm fine with this. I believe in him." - Anju, Majora's Mask TALK – 08:42, 23 August 2009 (UTC) There should be a disambig page about the prefix Deku in general, including a list of characters, items, objects, and enemies. It seems reasonable that the Deku Tree is mentioned, but it should be noted in any article about the Deku Tree that any relationship to the race of Deku is unknown. We should also consider putting a theory section in regards to 'Deku' becoming 'Boko' (i.e. Deku Baba= Boko Baba) over the years between OoT and WW... Opinions?

only if its b/c in TWW the deku baba had to evolve into boko baba to servive in the new ocean world/climate/etc. maybe just to big of a leap.--C2 23:01, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

Woah hold on Oni, this page is already about the race. Deku Scrub already has its own page. On the other note though, Deku may be a better disambig and this page could be "Deku (race)".—Triforce 14 00:22, 22 August 2009 (UTC)
