Why not? I personally place them after Majora's Mask.

Aw geez. I think I'll just resign myself from any kind of cohesive Zelda timeline.

Hmm, I diagree with the above timeline.

Normal Timeline:
Ocarina of Time
Majora's Mask
A Link to the Past
Legend of Zelda
Adventures of Link
(GBs are here)

Alternate Timeline:
Ocarina of Time (Adult)
Wind Waker

The alternate timeline is like this because Hyrule and Ganon are destroyed in WW. WW is there to wrap up conflicts brought about by Link's creating of a second reality. It's basically a dead end, as far as the Legend of Zelda is concerned. Also, WW Link isn't a descendant of the original Link because he vanished upon returning to his own time. He couldn't have settled down and, uh, reproduced.
