I have one question: how I could create a sandbox section derived from the userpage which its title says "User:(INSERT USERNAME HERE)/(INSERT SANDBOX'S TITLE HERE)"?

I'm planning to put sandboxes: one about my likes and other about my dislikes.

Just type the URL directly in the address bar and click the create button to start editing it.

Ok, thanks. Besides, I've created the articles about two of the scrapped playable characters from Rayman Origins in the Spanish version of RayWiki:
Teensoudini: https://raymanpc.com/wiki/es/Diminuto_escapista
Flashy MacTeen: https://raymanpc.com/wiki/es/Rayoman

Probably the worst time for this, but I want to leave this here in case I forget later.

Every time I edit an article in the polish wiki, a loading bar appears and the following message appears:
Error loading data from server: apierror-visualeditor-docserver-http: HTTP 404. Would you like to retry?
I click the cancel button and after that I can edit the article, this is not a big deal, but I wanted to mention it here.

Thanks for the report, I'm gonna look into it.

In the meantime, just click "Edytuj kod źródłowy" instead of "Edytuj", this will take you directly to the classic (code) editor.

When you click on "Edit source" you can edit the article without the loading bar and the error message, thanks for the advice.

All right, the visual editor is now working again on the Polish wiki. Not sure why we even keep it, but hey, let's worry about this some other time. :mrgreen:

How can I upload an image in RayWiki? I know that it can be done in the English version of RayWiki.

By the way, I've already created the Ray-Gnarr article in the Spanish version of RayWiki: https://raymanpc.com/wiki/es/Rayglodita

Nice work! As for images:

Note that clicking "Subir archivo" in the sidebar will take you there directly.

Ok, thanks. :wink:

P.S.: There is a problem that every time I go to the English version of RayWiki, it claims that I logged out, but If I go to the Spanish version of the mentioned wiki, it actually says that I still logged in. I can't access to the English version, I tried to load the page again, click it again and click "Log in" but it doesn't work. Is there any solution to access to the English version of RayWiki? :?:

I guess the closest I can think of is Rayman merchandising? A two-metre statue is quite something of its own, anyway.

The thing about the giant statue is that I don't know if it was something that could be purchased or won in official contests, but I guess it could be placed in the Rayman merchandising article in the meantime. Maybe a "Miscellaneous" section could be placed at the bottom of the page for these kind of things.

Well, sometimes those things end up for sale anyway, so I guess there's not much point in trying to make a distinction.

About the discs that contain Rayman demos, should all the box art be uploaded, even if it doesn't contain any Rayman related images?

Yes, for example, these CDs from the Joystick Magazine contain a Rayman 3 demo, but I don't know if all the images should be added.
