Ganon. One N. Believe me, some people can be very adamant about this. Like, absurdly unnecessarily adamant.

I don't think Nintendo had a timeline in mind when they made the games so it's one big tangled mess of contradictions and story gaps.

Didn't you catch the part of the split timeline starting from Ocarine of Time? Let me explain in detail:
Spoiler Alert:
Zelda sending Link back in time so he could reclaim his childhood had a tiny side-effect of the overall timeline splitting in two: the "Child Timeline" and "Adult Timeline".
The Child Timeline has Link warn the Royal Family of Hyrule before Ganondorf rose to power, right after he claimed the Triforce of Power. Ganondorf was captured and Link is traveling to find a "lost friend". Meanwhile, Ganondorf was sentenced to death by the Sages, but his execution was botched because of the Triforce he claimed earlier. The Sages had no choice but to banish him to the Twilight Realm. Put short, the Child Timeline leads into Majora's Mask and Twilight Princess.
The Adult Timeline begins right after Ocarina of Time, with Ganon imprisoned in the Sacred Realm and Zelda sending Link back in time. Within a certain period of time, Ganon somehow managed to partially break through the barrier, causing another disaster. but without Link to stop him, the Goddess saw no alternative but to cause the Great Flood, hiding Hyrule in a vast ocean. You guessed it: it's the starting point for The Wind Waker, Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks.
Got it all? A Link to the Past could fit in the Child Timeline too, but the rest of the games and especially the Four Sword and Oracle series are harder to place. I'd say: don't bother trying.

I guess that makes sense, although in OoT it just shows link close the door in the temple of time. Which I always thought meant that he sealed Ganondorf in the sacred realm while he was still in there searching for the Triforce. So either way he still ended up trapped in the Sacred realm. LttP would be in the adult timeline though, at the beginning it mentions 7 sages sealing Ganon in the dark realm.

That's because they never cared about the timeline. They didn't "screw themselves" (Whatever that means) because the only canon Wind Waker follows is it's own, just like every other game in the series. (Except for Majora's Mask and Phantom Hourglass, obviously)
