I think the page should be called "Majora's Mask".

There is not much information on the mask because it is ancient. All we know is this:

  "It is an accursed item from legend that is said to have been used by an ancient tribe in its hexing rituals. It is said that an evil and wicked power is bestowed upon the one who wears that mask."

"According to legend... the troubles caused by Majora's Mask were so great... the ancient ones, fearing such catastrophe, sealed the mask in shadow forever, preventing its misuse. But now, that tribe from the legend has vanished, so no one really knows the true nature of the mask's power..."

" The power of the mask made him do it. It was too much for the Skull Kid to handle."

Never is there any indication that a Majora is at work, using the mask as a vessel. It is even said that the origin of the mask's power is unknown.

During the game the mask shows that it has sentience, clearly malicious and genocidal intentions, and a corrupting power. However, we do not know whether this was due to the possession through some deity or merely a side-effect of the rituals commited by the ancient tribe.

The game does not give us any indication as to what /who Majora; there is just so little information on it. The mask is called Majora's Mask, and the other final bosses are called Majora's Incarnation and Majora's Mask. But I don't think that the names alone gives us enough evidence to think that an evil deity called Majora possessed the mask. Whether Majora is the name of the monster whose skin the mask was made of, the man who made the mask, the tribe who bewitched the mask, a deity which possessed the mask, or not associated with the mask at all and simply some ancient king the mask is named after, is simply not given in the game.

In-game, the people attribute the chaos wrought by those possessed by the mask to the mask, not to the power behind it. Given that the mask has personality and character, I think this is what whe should focus on. This is what we know from the game and have evidence for, so we have no reason to use speculation and say that Majora is the evil deity behind it all. This is why I think the page should be called "Majora's Mask", and not "Majora".
