It's hard to say the Zelda series does have a timeline, because either events keep happening over again like some sort of perversion of Nietzche's Eternal Recurrence, or Ganondorf is the most unoriginal villain ever who keeps trying the same method to get power, even though it's never ever worked for longer than 7 years. As far as anybody knows, the only timelines that actually exist are:
LoZ -> AoL (nothing complicated with this one)
OoT -> MM, WW, & TP (all three are along alternate timelines, according to Nintendo's statements; honestly, TP feels more like a prequel to LttP than a sequel to OoT, though)
MC -> Four Swords (both of them; no way to tell which comes first, though it's obvious that MC precedes them as that's where the Four Sword is actually forged)
OoS OoA (probably the weirdest relationship of all, a Klein bottle of a situation where each is the sequel and prequel to the other)
The rest don't have any obvious links, really. They just sort of... are. Not that links in storylines has ever been a big part of Miyamoto's trade. The Mario series is a good example of that; I can't think of any Mario game that acts as a sequel story-wise instead of just a stand-alone title.
Sky Render - Sanity is for the weak.
