Just putting some of my finding for Origins related stuff into one area that everyone can see:

-All trophies are posted in "List of achievements in Rayman Origins" except for the Vita ones, Which should be added if possible (and why some achievements have pages is weird since it contradicts most of this main page. Maybe a master "tips and tricks page" should replace them since it's more convenient to have them all in the same area.)

-All of the Worlds pages need to be expanded to include things like events, geography, trivia, ect.

-Articles about all 4 kings need to be edited in various ways, as well as most of the Origins skins needing their unlock requirements for Legends

There are a few more things regarding Origins that may be important, but I'll save them for the morning.

Onto the true purpose of this post, I just finished working on the R2 All-Encompassing template, this is just a heads up for fellow editors so that they can refine it as they feel is necessary: http://raymanpc.com/wiki/en/Template:Rayman_2
How do you scan a instruction booklet, is that a new function that home printers have? I just assumed we had to take really good pictures or go to a Fed-ex or somethin.

Thanks for the suggestions, dartofthedavros, but please don't hesitate to edit the wiki yourself, everybody's contributions are welcome.

Sorry about that, I posted that at some unholy hour in the morning. I was going to work on the levels today and tomorrow.

Great news! Origins and Legends articles are in great need of improvement. ;)

Also, I've just realised that I haven't announced it yet but an Italian version of RayWiki was created this month. Please help if you speak the language. :)

I've got plans of my own as well in regards to Origins and Legends, sadly, the aid I can give is limited due to my not being able to use the PC version. However, I should be able to make use of what we have in terms of playthroughs and other visual material to build things up.

As for the instruction booklets, the ones I've uploaded were scanned using your average home scanner, many modern day printers seem to incorporate them.

Great news, Master! There's so much to write about RO and RL worlds and levels, and I'm sure others can come up with the needed images.

I have a bunch of R2 PDF manuals taken directly from my CD. What's the best way of going about adding/describing them, etc?

There's no need to really describe them, just compare it to this one we've got here, we don't want any duplicates: http://raymanpc.com/wiki/script-en/imag ... Manual.pdf

When uploading a file, be sure to add the image template with the relevant fields filled in, and add the catagory:manuals at the end.

I think it's fair to say that I need to improve and expand the help pages, if we're ever going to get more help from the community.

Is there any specific Template you had in mind for the origins/legends world stages pages? if not I'll be setting them up like this in the meantime:
-world summary
-geography
-various pictures
-trivia if any can be thought of

Not really no, perhaps it'd be easier to evaluate the set-up, if we could visualise it. Besides, if it does turn out less than acceptable, we can revert it easily anyways. With that in mind, go right ahead as you wish.

As for other matters, I've begun writing up the Online Challenges from Legends, though seeing as a) I don't have the ability to take pictures of the game for the wiki, and b) I've not played the online mode for months, you can imagine that my addition is a small shuffle to progress. I'm going to need a more experienced player in this matter to help expand on what little has been established

Rayman 1 world articles are fine without a template so I'm not sure it's needed for Origins, but let's add content first and then we'll see if they can be useful!

I'm not all that keen with the navbox set-up for Origins' and Legends' levels, too many templates and too much kurfuffle in my view.

I guess, but for me it's easier to build them up a certain way in the beginning so I'm not totally lost. And I'm almost done with Jibberish Jungle, just want to touch up the paragraphs a little and link the pictures to the article. :)

Hmm, you don't mean MediaWiki template when you say template, do you? In this case you're merely referring to a common layout is all.

Anyways, comparing before and after, I like what you've done.

No, or at least I don't think its on MediaWiki, so I guess you could call it common, anywho its right here:
-world summary
-geography
-various pictures
-trivia if any can be thought of

Yeah, MediaWiki templates are a different thing to what you're referring to. I've just made a slight alteration to your wording in the Geography section, but all in all, good work!

All-encompassing templates maybe?

I'll give it a shot, and get back to you.

On another note, I've just made a table noting the lum prizes from the Online Challenges, I'd be grateful if any members who play the challenges could fill in the missing values, or just let me know of them so I can put them in: http://raymanpc.com/wiki/en/Online_Chal ... Lum_Prizes
