I noticed that you started doing links to other language wikis now at the side, and that's quite a bold move. ;)

Some time back I tried using the "<ref>" tag, which is used in Wikipedia for when people put their citations, but at the moment that doesn't work. It's something I feel we'll need since even I end up putting in some inaccurate crap, but it's mostly for people to cite where on the net where they get rumours [like with Rayman 4 for example].

Well yeah, I'm going to replace the {{French}} template by interwiki links now, except for the main page, where it's quite important to point it up. I'm also going to create a German database (after all, it's worth trying).
Anyway, I failed miserably last time I tried to install collapsible tables. The source code of MediaWiki is the worst mess ever (actually, it's way too well structured) and I couldn't figure out why it didn't work.

Mmmkay important stuff yo.

I'm in the process of taking screens from a recording of Rayman Rev I've made up to the end of the Cave of Bad Dreams. I'll take discs of the rest of the game later on today. Bad news though - they're not crystal clear, and I don't think we'll ever see crystal clear screens from Revolution until whoever programs PS2 emulators get up on their asses and make it powerful enough to run the game. I'll do my best to make them a bit sharper in Photoshop before I upload.

Edit: here's an example of the best I can do.

I didn't notice much information regarding Rayman Arena (the Xbox/Gamecube version) and their manual, I'm willing to add info or scan in the manual for you guys if you want.

I'm currently scanning in the whole manual for PDF form but I can give a few ones un-PDF formed (either PNG/JPG) like the characters and items.

*edit - I also have the PC Rayman Arena but since that manual's way too long, I'll just write the info somewhere on this forum.

Thanks to the new server, the wiki should be a lot faster. The chmod error also seems to be gone.

I just noticed that the Beta character isn't displayed anymore. Will you fix that?

Many special characters have been lost on the forum during the data transfer. I'll deal with other backup formats to get it sorted, which means it's no use editing them now. Please note that this doesn't concern RayWiki.

I just created two missing pages from the ''Rayman'' article, those 2 are: Learning with Rayman and Rayman brain games, i can help with Rayman brain games because i have that one on a psx emulator...... and then i could PM the information to Stacey (or someone else)for spelling checking ( I'm bad at that stuff :boon: ) and then..... she has to pm me back because i want to send it to Raywiki on my name.

EDIT: Someone fixed those pages and redirected them to Rayman junior :P

We need some kind of tool that can permanently ban someone from RayWiki while simultaneously reverting all of their edits.

Actually I'd rather you post your contribution in this thread because my PM inbox is a bit full at the moment, then I can go over spelling, grammar and all that shit.

I really want to know who that editor making those shit edits is, all I know is that it's located in the UK and it's not FAB. I had to apply a 24 hour ban because it was posting the same shit over and over but it used a similar IP address afterwards. Perhaps I should make a help page about "good faith" edits.

He said his name was "Andrew Smith" and said he wanted to make a Rayman movie and put it up on YouTube. This makes me wonder about his mental age. I found this, but it's probably nothing.

As if I, Andrew Smith, can make of a movie of Rayman 2: The Great Escape from Dreamcast; rated E for everyone, I can do a cast, voice actors, sound effects and music, which I can use and do on my own here and there on YouTube, I can use many different videos and default voices and use Microsoft Sam as the Narrator.

Baby Football is the game you can play.

But you can't play it. This Baby Football game only appears in the PlayStation 2 Version of Rayman 2: Revolution.
Win!
Oktette is a very special friend of Rayman's, he likes being good, especially when he appears in Rayman 2: The Great Escape for Dreamcast and Rayman 2: Revolution for PlayStation 2.
More win!
What?! Those Flying Bombs and a Robo-Pirate come here in Rayman 2: The Great Escape from Dreamcast with a Globox Crystal? Now this is good, no wonder I find this really good to find a pirate in the fourth part of Rayman 2: The Great Escape for Dreamcast.
